Arma 3 (All Campaign Episodes released!)

[Amit]

The Lite keys haven't been made available yet.

Ah, when people were talking about invites, I had assumed that the keys had already been distributed

Lite keys are available March 14th. Also if you liked Arma 2 then you'll probably love this, it's much more refined with some really cool new mechanics. Some shenanigans screenshots as per Arma:

Anyone have any experience with modding this game? Are there any docs available telling you what to do or how to do it?

[PenGuin1362]

From what I understand it's very similar to Arma 2 (if not the same?) I haven't personally done it but I bet if you look for documentation for Arma 2 you can get it to work with Arma 3. It does require a lot of scripting, simple things like respawning are controlled by scripts.

The script system is exactly the same as Arma 2 and there is tons of documentation on that, so it's easy to mod with the correct knowledge. It's a bit time consuming to work out some complex script functions, though. I doubt that would be a problem for this crowd, though. Check community websites like the BI forums and Armaholic for that kind of stuff.

Yeah, it's essentially the same as ArmA 2 with the exception of some new config bits concerning things like characters, weapons, etc. However, most of these new features are being documented on the BI wiki, so all is good: http://community.bistudio.com/wiki/C...rma_3:_Editing (for examples).

It's all fun in Stratis-land:

Wasteland is insanely fun on Stratis.

I enjoyed it, that pistol though....so worthless. Hoping to find some time to really dive into the modding for this game soon, want to make some custom content for it.
