Shit does it have to be there? I thought the way arma worked was clients upload their missions to the server in the voting screen
[QUOTE=SniperComZero;48781500]So, ARMA 3 is on 50% off right now on Steam, I'm considering picking it up but I don't want to waste £17 for something I might not like, but I never went into MP in ARMA 2 when I played it. On the other hand, having a community here might actually get me to play it for a reason more often.
Should I get it?[/QUOTE]
If you really like arma's core concept, yes.

Danish gear is done, save for backpack, then I'll have to name them properly and after that I'll start working on the next country.

Is the picture related? I don't see anything that looks like it could be a Danish soldier in that picture.
[QUOTE=Tinter;48782223]Is the picture related? I don't see anything that looks like it could be a Danish soldier in that picture.[/QUOTE]
Yes? The crouching soldier, who quite obviously has a muted danish flag on the arm. They're reskins you know, using vanilla equipment. Plus the fact that the camouflage is the Danish M84, though with different colors.
Looked like a Swedish flag to me.
[QUOTE=Tinter;48782258]Looked like a Swedish flag to me.[/QUOTE]
Compare the blue from the muted Finnish flag on the red of the danish flag, and do the same for the white. Though there is an issue with the NATO uniform that the section where the flag is on it is sort of reflective, so here's how it looks with less light reflecting on it
[t]http://images.akamai.steamusercontent.com/ugc/427070899524037083/21B715A4A9B31137DCEA0AAB99A129E472C27E78/[/t]
Though still, the camouflage should make it fairly noticable as to not being swedish, as the swedes got their M90 camo. Though that reminds me, I'll have to do a template of that.
Might just be the sun shining in on it, but it looks pretty blue to me.
I love 'em!
Woooooo
I like the uniforms, very futurey, but if it was me I'd make the Danish flag a bit more Danish.

It's probably as Danish as I'll make it, since if the colors were any more saturated it'd stand out pretty strongly, which would kind of defeat the point of having muted colors in the first place :v:
Shit, I did forget about the boonie/patrol caps though, I'll have to make danish versions of those too. And both kitbag and assault pack backpacks.

Fucking neon. It needs to glow.
[QUOTE=lekkimsm;48782492]Fucking neon. It needs to glow.[/QUOTE]
K, will give it bloom making danish uniforms visible up to 2km. Through buildings.
But in all seriousness, after I'm done with these Danish things (sometime tomorrow) I'll up a test version of the mod if you guys want.
I just don't think it can pass approval if the Danish nationalism can't be felt through the screen.
[editline]28th September 2015[/editline]
But if you do upload, I will be happy to give you the benefit of the doubt. For Denmark.
I've seen pictures of Norwegian soldiers in Afghanistan with IR reflective flags and they had NOR written on them so maybe you could do something similar.
All the scando flags look the same anyway, differing colors aren't enough.
They need to add text saying SWEDEN/NORWAY/DENMARK/FINLAND STRONQ

It's official, I love the 3D Editor because this would've not been possible for me to make without it:

Ignore the two dumbass sentries at the checkpoint, that's part of the animation I set them up to do. This was my first time messing with animations. But it's so much easier to make bases now because the 3D Editor completely eliminates all the guess work you had to do in the 2D Editor just to make a proper fucking wall although some objects don't react well to uneven terrain as with the HESCO barriers to the left and the concrete barriers.
You guys got any good tutorial on how to add vehicles to the game? My friend wants to add his helicopter he made to the game but is not sure how and google isn't very helpful atm.
Well, I ended up saturating the Danish flag slightly, not by much though.

Also, here's the WIP mod, and the list of gear currently in it:
[url]https://dl.dropboxusercontent.com/u/4888695/%40NOMADWIP01.7z[/url]
Current FDF (Finnish) Gear:
Uniforms: Combat Uniform M34A, Combat Uniform M34A (Rolled-up)
Vests: Advanced Combat Rig M35 (Heavy, Medium, and Light variants), Advanced Load Bearing Vest M32
Backpacks: Assault pack (FDF), Kitbag (FDF)
Headgear: Booniehat (FDF), Combat Helmet (FDF), Military Cap (FDF)
Current RDA (Danish) Gear:

Oh yeah, the Danish units aren't set up for editor correctly yet, so using them isn't recommended. If you guys want though, I'll switch the Danish abberviation from RDA to DDF, but whichever works for me.
Oh and also eventually I might use non-default weapons for the units, though if I were to do that I'd have to learn how to port from A2 so I could get the Rk-95 from it into A3, preferably using Toadie's AK animations 'cause they're pretty damn nice. If anyone got any links/tutorials on stuff like that it'd be much appreciated.
oh boy i just bought ARMA 3 i hope i don't regret this so bad

You probably won't
But, the amount of fun you get out of ARMA is the amount of fun you wish to get out of it - the campaign only goes so far, the real fun lies in the editor and playing with organized or semi-organized groups
Or wasteland and dayz mods if that's your thing

It's complicated
Arma 3 entities (with models at least) exist in about a 50:50 split between the .p3d (which is a model file with knobs on) and the config
You'll want to get the model into object builder, the standard tool for working with .p3ds, and also the other tools from the A3 tools pack (it's in your steam tools), and then you'll need to build your .p3d file - the .p3d isn't just a model file, it includes important stuff like texture paths, geometries, levels of detail and memory points
The other half is the config, its structure is vaguely similar to C with the whole class inheritance thing, you'll want to inherit from a default helicopter and then steadily build up the differences (be wary that helicopters have the whole flight model thing to deal with). You can use the config viewer in the base game to look at the different attributes different helicopter have
In regards to both of these, you can probably find decent help on the BI wiki and the BI forums, I can't help much with vehicles as the most I've done with models are grenades (;_;)
Be wary that object builder can't unpack .p3ds straight from the pbo as binarized pbos can't be opened, you'll want to take a look at a way to unlock .p3ds or take a look at the arma 2 source files that BI released and have hosted somewhere

Complicated but not hard if you know what you're doing
You know I wouldn't mind switching to ACRE purely for the fact that I don't to use seperate backpacks for long distance communication, and I can put them in any bag I want.
TFR is easy and great to use though, but the backpacks suck.
the backpacks are shitty, and i'd really prefer ACRE for the way it handles proximity chat, and the ability to hear live players when you're spectating
but then I remember back when we used ACRE in arma 2. teams listening in on eachother in tvt's, people constantly hotmicing over entire games, it's a double edged sword
[editline]29th September 2015[/editline]
also i really like that TFR separates your SR and LR into two different keystrokes, rather than having to switch between them
although based on Whitefox's last performance, that wont stop everyone from accidentally talking on the wrong radio
I am now the proud owner of ARMA 3. :v:
When is FPArma
I sure wish ENVGs were a thing in A3

out of all the stupid future tech we got, this is one that I'd actually enjoy using
