-FAQ:
Q: What are your system specs?
A: i7 6700k, Geforce GTX 970, 16 gigs of ram, 250 gig SSD, 500 gig SSD
Q: What do you use for recording?
A: OBS for video and system audio; Audacity for personal audio.
Q: Why don't you play in First Person?
A: I'm a 3rd person gamer. I hate first person. Please don't try to "convince" me otherwise as if I am unaware of the gaming style I prefer.
Q: Were you in the Military?
A: US Army 99-06, Radio Operator(25C). Non-Combat Veteran.
Q: Is that AI or real people?
A: If it's an ArmA Mission it's AI unless I very specifically state otherwise. The 506th doesn't PvP.
Q: What ArmA 3 mods do you use?
A: CUP Terrains, RHS Escalation, CBA A3, TFAR, ACE3, cTab, FHQ Accessories, DAR MAXXPROs, grace weapon sway fix, Ares, mrb A3 Voice Stop, Switch Weapons While Moving, Cypress push-to-hear, Mighty's GAU8, ASCZ Missing Content, Recoil Fix, 506th Custom Factions, Tweaks, and Sounds(not publicly available)
For SF missions: VSM Gear, Enhanced Movement Mod, MOCAP Melee mod, MCC, SMA Weapons, Robert Hammer Pistols, and a variety of ArmA community maps.
I am no longer using any iteration of JSRS due to the problems it causes on servers. It was discovered in Feb 2015 that all versions of JSRS for the past 4 years have been causing massive amounts of errors on dedicated servers so it has stopped being used and I don't use another sound mod. This includes JSRS Lite.
Q: Can you upload that mission so I can play it?
A: Nearly all of the missions I play are dynamically created by someone controlling Zeus in ArmA. They are therefore not available for upload.
Q: No debrief?
A: When we debrief in game I leave it in. We very rarely debrief in game. Debriefs are rare, not the norm, and they never will be.
Q: Why don't you do X when you Zeus?
A: I Zeus by a very strict set of guidelines set forth by my ArmA unit to maximize the fun of the people in the mission for whom I am Zeusing. The goal is fun, not punishment. I don't need a hundred Monday morning quarterbacks telling me "what I should have done" or "how I would have done it" or "how this other person does it". All I need is for my guys to say they had fun at the end of the mission and I know I did it right.
Q: Can I join your ArmA unit?
A: 506th IR Realism Unit: www.506thIR.net (Must be 18 or older)

![ArmA 3 - Eden Editor Tips for Aircraft in Missions [2K]](/img/n.gif)
Heres a tip, go to the Editor settings and look for "Automatically group units" and disable it
This, this is gold.
Thanks.
This is exactly what I was looking for. New to scenario creation, and this series is just the right level. Thank you.
Useful stuff, its a pain having to skim through vids from 2012 only to realize they dont work, we needed this!!!
Good job.
What a fantastic video again Jester! I cant wait for learning more with your tutorials! I will stay tuned for more! Great job man, congrats.
Amazing video, thank you very much for taking the time to do this. I've only just discovered ARMA 3 and loving it :)
It is so nice you are updating your old videos there were so much help. If you keep making part 3 or 4 to this series can you do one just on the modules such as the objective randomizer. I am trying to get groups to spown in random spots and have a random quests for a COOP.
bro you are a actual GOD you just got a like sub and ive been waiting for someone actually make a mission in detail and ACTUALLY make the mission in front of us i haven't had a clue what ive been at with arma editor
Thanks Drum, I always enjoy these, it helps a lot brother.
Great tutorial! Also something to mention, right now, if you use the mod 3den enhanced, you have the option to change the units stance. Aside from that, BIS is planning to add unit stance to Eden along with some other cool things.
3Den Enhanced also lets you set an animation for each unit. So you can have them looking more alive.
This was really useful. Thank you for these two videos :D
Beautiful stuff. Most helpful. Thank you. Looking forward to future tutorials.
You should Zeus more missions. You are really good at it. I love the tutorials too. It helps to know what to do. Keep uploading them. 😊
Jester, Thanks for the tutorial. It's very informative and easy to understand and I look forward to viewing your other videos.
My only critique, because you mentioned building your mission from an officer's point of view, is the direction some of the OP towers were facing when placed. Towers 1 & 4 I had no problem with, but 2 & 3 you had facing inwards which makes no sense if they're supposed to be looking for enemies trying to sneak in from the outside of the perimeter.
Not a big deal, though. Your tutorial had the desired effect and I learned a lot. Just had my one moment of cringe having been on guard duty in a OP tower before. Thanks, again.
Awesome tutorial!! Really looking forward to a Part 3, triggers, etc. the stuff that you mentioned you'd make in a follow-on tutorial.
4 years later....
5 years later...
Eden Enhanced is an excellent addon that really expands the Eden editor. Nice mission.
Happy Birthday, love your vids!!!
ヘ( ^o^)ノ＼(^_^ )
Jester, if you double click the group icon (the red diamond above the CSAT unit icons) you can modify the group behaviour such as stances, speed etc. This works for individual units - each "ungrouped" unit is essentially its own group
Happy birthday Jester!!!
if you want to let ypur guys stand easy you need to double click the blufor icon (blue box) that is floating above his head. you have a lot of other useful options there to. sorry for bad english not my native. great video btw.
Good job man. Will you explore some of the modules in the system tab in a future video?
Another brilliant tutorial! Cheers buddy, keep it up. Lesson 3?
As far as longevity, even these provided tutorials are as relevant now as they were when you made them.
I really hope you continue this
Really nice tutorial. Thanks. Do have a video where you play this with/without other players?
TEAM SETTING, u can force up or down
after select unit, on up of unit has a icon team, there u can change that
most informative video out here :)) thanks man
Hey Jester, Eden editor isn't really missing the settings for stance etc. You just need to select the group that the unit is in man!
Jester, I'm a little late on this, but you can hold ALT while setting down a unit to make it empty.
Note: You can adjust stance. Double click the shape above the group which will enter options for that group. There you can select their stance.
where do I go to play the mission without having to go into the editor after you finish editing the mission? ty
Jester, what mic do you use? I'm gonna start a channel soon and I need some hardware tips!
If I'm not mistaken, you can select multiple units/objects and edit the available attribute for all of them ;) anyway, great video again! THX!
ok...i should watch the whole video before commenting...nevermind :D
Thank You Sir ... was having probs with how to Cycle the Groups .... Now I know ... ;-)
Great Tutorial! Are there any more? Looked all over the channel and doesn't look to be any newer tutorials. Is this the last one you made?
What were to modules you placed on the map Upper Left?
Please explain a bit about those. Thanks
not sure if this works for you but I can separate a whole squad of soldiers by grabbing the whole group and control clicking away
oooooh good tip
doing them one by one is annoying
You can also hold the mouse pointer on the blue line and click delete button on keyboard. This is a very quick and precise way to remove groupings.
@jester where can you set the accuracy of the units to, example 25%?
Are you ever going to make that trigger tutorial and finish this series?
awesome video
I didn't actually know that cycle waypoints cycled to the closest waypoint, I thought it just went to the first one.
Also, is there an int command that makes units not follow roads? I want them to walk along a wall, but they keep going 10-20 meters off and follow a road and then go back to the waypoint by the wall.
Zeus does copy paste correctly and you can right click the unit to change loadout rather than run each person to the Virtual Arsenal.
If you click the blue rectangle or red diamond etc. above the soldiers yo can choose their stance, formation etc...
This is really helpful thx
how do you put task for them to do? how do you put triggers for respawn points and waypoint?
Thank you so much !!
hello,
that was very good when i try it worked but also can you do a tutorial for the checkpoint when the AI can open the barrier for good side people to check it that works?..
You got featured on the Arma dev log
When I export my SP scenario I can see only units on map. Can't see any fortifications, buildings, etc :<
Any idea what I'm doing wrong?
if you click the icon on top of the player head then you will find the option to set they stand or unit formations etc.....
jester you using 3den editor for your op missions or still building them on the fly with zeus? I noticed you zeused another operation for the 506th where they assault the airfield, will that be uploaded? or was that a new zeus operator not you. loved the vids man.
He was supposed to upload the recording, but that part of the file somehow ended up getting corrupted.
That's not the recording that got corrupted. Our fun op is. The airfield operation will be up next week
So I know it doesn't really pertain to this video but I was wondering if you know how to make a task and trigger that recognizes when a map placed building is destroyed. I want to blow up a radio tower for my mission as one of the objectives but I can't figure out how. Any help would be greatly appreciated.
every time i go to try my mission in SP it automatically goes to mission complete. i did the same" kill HVT " type mission, what did I do wrong?
We need a part 3
Thanks for this great tutorial. Since this video is from 2016 i guess there will never be a part 3 where you explain how to set triggers and missionpoints?
th-cam.com/play/PLmfRxJX4Bs7FkhsducKrEmH5TBphUYzJV.html
part 3 anywhere?
Just in case anyone watches and doesnt see part 3 as this was a year and I see no Part 3. As of Arma2 how I did it was simple.
Go into the trigger and down into the condition type !alive Officer; Then name your officer Officer. Then into where it says on Activation and type hint "Enemy officer has been eliminated!" Or whatever you want it to say on your screen. That is the old way of doing it there are newer ways but this is simple. It sets a condition to check the life status of the unit or officer in this case if alive then continue checking if dead then display hint. This will work with any unit pretty much even objects If I recall.
When it comes to multiple Targets its more tricky and you will have to use multiple triggers which is a bad way if you have 10 targets but want to only display the message when all 10 are dead. Arma2 scripting works some in Arma3. If you have multiple targets youll need to make it say something like this !Alive unit1 and Unit2 and or sometimes !alive unit1 and OR unit2.
The multiple thing might not work its been a few years but the !alive check to check for condition of one unit will. Hope this helps some of you. I was a mission maker in Arma2 so I learned alot. To you guys wanting to delve into awesome sauce go to the Bohemia Interactive forums and use the search for what you are seeking. The community Forums is a great learning tool. Anything you want to do can be done but it will some time to learn. As always with the exception of engine limitations.
thanks for the help!
Weird.... I could make them stand in eden... I love these videos btw. I don’t mind the vanilla way of making missions.... I don’t know why but I almost prefer it
You should download, Eden enhanced its a mod that allows you to give the ai a few animations like ex: standing with a rifle. They will still shoot on sight too. Just make sure they dont use the animation "Guard" or they will put their hands behind their back with no rifle and they will let themselves be killed..
How do you make way points for only certain factions
If you want them to stand you have to press on the rectangle over their head and select it there 12:00
can you do a mission with the nuke?
Can we edit the new apex missions and save them. atm I have to use mcc and do it live. where are the .pbo files on the hdd
I need some help, so in the editor I just want to make all out wars in Arma 3 but I can't figure out with this new editor, how I can get a bunch of soldiers to get into helicopters,jeeps,trucks,boats,etc. And have them drive that somewhere get out and move on foot/attack a certain objective I make. (Yes the soldiers I need help with are AI soldiers.) So someone please give me help if you know how to do stuff like I explained. Thanks for reading!
Gold Turtle Check out the AL!VE mod. You can read up on it at alivemod.wiki or download it from steam. It a large Theatre of War type of framework. This may be exactly what you're looking for.
Mason Pappas Use the "get in" type waypoint directly on a vehicle icon. You can then use normal movement waypoints to control their heading. Then you use the "get out" waypoint where you want.
Use zeus
Is it possible to setunitpos to "up" and "middle"? So they can do all except lay down?
I don't think that's possible. I've done a heavy amount of scripting but unfortunately haven't done any in awhile so I don't remember.
i dont think so. that script is for the unit to stand up or kneel at the beggining of the mission. if you u put both i dont think it would work. one thing reverses the other
Are you going to continue these?
Can you do a mission with mods... such as Ace, TFR, USAF etc.
@Jester814 theres a thong called 3den enhanced on the workshop that adds many options to eden editor it helps alot u should try it
These tutorials are for vanilla arma with zero mods.
Nice ty, can you do one with multiple objective pls. ty
I want to play this but i have the mission template but the mine area is not finished i want that all done already please i want to play this map
how do you create a server profil for your AI skill level?
Have you ever thought of doing an hvt mission that has two officers but only one of the officers is the target? For example have a pacific Csat officer be the "false target while an altis Csat officer is the main target. It'd be sure the guys are paying attention to detail. Maybe have the altis officer have a pacific uniform and only thing differing him is his nationality (Iranian)
How do I delete the editor map that I dont want?
When does Part 3 follows?
There is a machine gunner, it's just called Gunner (HMG)
I'm pretty sure that's a gunner for a static weapon
HMG's are too big to be carried by someone, they're the things that go on vehicles and static mounts
+Aaron Brougham infantryman carry them in backpacks
Prof. Mamalhute I'm talking real life, which is what the "Gunner (HMG)" in the game is named after
Aaron Brougham ho yhea my bad sorry.
With tacops u can set the stance
Can only get Edit 4 menu how ro open so they can run!?!?
When can we expect part 3?
This is part 2 of 2
well i meant when can you do a tutorial on triggers. You said in your video you would make a vid on tutorials. :P
The question is: CAN HE do it, to be honest, despite being clear on the messages, I do not think he is that knowledgeable to tutor on triggers.
@@Jester814 One more wont hurt?
can we download this map you made jester ?
can someone please tell me how i can start a selfmade Editor-Mission in 3rd Person view? i cannot switch to 3rd person and i don't find any setting where i can toggle it on...
HC Zocker You may have found out by now but press enter on the nimpad.
this a basic Tut??? seems advanced. did you play it? if so link plz??
you can use the 3 eden enaced mod this is in the game and the player wont need it
just point your mouse cursor to the group line and press delete if you want to ungroup them..
No part 3?
will you ever play another game with luetin09 as Zeus or no
Are you still using Ares? I think you mentioned something in another video of yours. I downloaded the latest. And none of it works.
The latest version is a bit different from previous iterations of Ares. It's called "Ares - Achilles", menu layout has been revamped, new features added. It's personalpreference which version you use, I'm unsure if the old version of Ares is still available.
Seems to work ok for me 85% of the time, but I've always had issues getting Zeus to run exactly the way I want it to anyway. AI will get their own ideas and ignore commands etc, modules that worked previously in the mission fail to initialise etc... But vanilla does that for me too.
Ares is for use with Zeus not Eden
So you can't even use the compositions in the editor? That would make sense.
iGame360fficial If you can I've never been able to get them to work in Eden. There's a mod on Steam called ZEC with Eden compositions
ThePrestd Thanks I'll check it out.
where you download arma 3 apex... in a steam?
this reminds me of the farcry 2 editor
I have a problem with Triggers in 3DEN Editor. They doesn't work properly. Could anyone help me? I just can't make them work.
depends on what you want to do with them. It can take a bit research to understand the ins and outs of many editing features.
More more more and please make the triggers video
How to have like to end a mission
Does skill at 100% make the AI head shot you across the map behind concealment? Because that is crap, I can't see them but they can see me.
Skill and Aim Skill are two different settings
HOW do I save one of the bunker bases that I build? I have a super nice road block, tower, bunker base type of thing and I need to save it to re use because it took fucking forever because aesthetics
Select all the objects by dragging a box around them.
And then right click on an object in that group.
It should give you a save composition option.
How do i copy and paste?
ctrl+c and then ctrl+v
One big problem with your tutorial is that I CANNOT SEE the CURSOR of your mouse. Never knows what you click or where... Brilliant in the rest.
ya were did his mouse disappear?
Couldn't you just set your sever setting to twice the skill you want?
this would mean you wouldn't have to manually set every asset's skill to 100%??
Did only I get slightly triggered when he placed those Altos CSAT units in the tower at 18:02 ??
23 mins in RAGING DAD!
So do the ranks of different AI matter?
I was just about to ask that. I watched him make several missions and never change anyone's rank. I've been curious about it.
doc phibz I thought it was funny that the commander was a private.
rank effects two things - skill level, which I always put at 100 no matter the rank, and who leads a group. The highest ranking person in a group leads it. Since the commander wasn't in a group it did not make any difference.
alrighty. thanks for the reply
i thought this was your camp.. as soon as i saw it was opfor i was like yeah ok and heres how i plan on making this place impossible to attack...
yo jester could you play this mission? reply if you consider
