Title: Sparko's Mission Editing Tutorials
Post by: Sparko on April 26, 2014, 12:32:08 PM
Hi Guys,

In order to encourage more people to create missions for the community to play, It was suggested that I put some tutorials together to help any of you that want to create your own missions.

I have created a mission template for you guys that has the Virtual Ammo script and also the Revive script embedded so that all you need to do is build your mission without having to worry about these scripts.

So this first tutorial shows you how to get this template working in Arma 3. Apologies for the slight feedback in the audio.  I will get some more tutorials together for you when I have time.

Here is the link for the template that I created

So get building those missions guys!

Title: Units, Groups and Vehicles - Tutorial 2
Post by: Sparko on April 26, 2014, 02:36:28 PM
This one shows the basics around adding units and groups along with some vehicles.  I know most of us know how to use these but thought I would add it anyway in case someone who hasn't used the editor before wants to use it.

This tutorial shows how to create waypoints for units and have them 'cycle'.  It also shows how to 'send' units into buildings along with an example of a simple trigger function which are hugely useful.
