That is some additional factions that I haven't used yet.
mod can be found HERE They have some additional factions that might work with ALIVE, but I don't use them yet so I don't think I had it on the mod list. Will be used in the future possibly for a mission on a diff. map. Since Gamespy shutdown support a few months back, it broke a lot of multiplayer gaming for arma unless you have a pay dedicated server. To get around that, we use Hamachi, a virtual LAN. Get Hamachi HERE. Grab the unmanaged one on the left. Install, join my server, join game in arma. hmmm Chinooks you say? How about US Helicopters (HAFM Overhaul) Mod? adds all kinds of choppers |

I am used to just using Play with Six to get all my mods downloaded. I got the A3 launcher but when I go to get the additional mods i need from armaholic, where am I putting them? Just into the folder that A3 shows all my other in?
I am also thinking we need to set up a time to get multiple players on. Maybe like a weekend event or something. How many players can your server hold and still be stable?

Yes, put the mod folders in where your other mod folders go (Arma 3 folder) In A3 Launcher, all your mods in your Arma 3 folder will be on the left. On the right half (should be empty if you haven't done anything on A3 Launcher), you just drag whatever mods you want from the left side to the right side. Right click on the right side to make folder groups such as vehicles, units, maps, etc. Click the box next to the mod to activate it, or click the box on the folder group to activate all mods in that group. |

ATV: any way to get the re-arm option to work on the F-18s? It would be nice to be able to customize the skin and armaments. Also, I suggest looking into Loadout Editor (LEA; @LEA), although the Arma 3 LEA kinda sucks. Basically you can make loadouts (weapon, gear, stuff, shit, etc) for your player, go in game and scroll will and select "Apply Loadout" and it will automatically put that selected profile on your player. What I said being about the Arma 3 version sucking is, is that it seems you have to manually assign everything to a faction, or you'll end up having everything under one section.....which makes it difficult having to scroll through 87000 items to find what your looking for. The LEA for Arma 2 was fairly simple as it automatically assigned weapons a and gear to the right section and faction. |

As far as weapon loadouts for your player, there are three ways incorporated already,
VAS: Virtual Ammo Box ASOR Gear Selector Virtual Arsenal Check the two big boxes, they have action menus to open those up. All of those can save loadouts for use later. The Virtual Arsenal can even do a random gear assignment. Also don't forget to load up on some medical supplies. For planes, I'll look into it. You may just have to work with what the Air Force gives you, soldier! 
There is a set of tasks to do in the mission that will eventually lead to its completion. So far we haven't gotten very far on it yet

Me and esstac ran into an issue.
While playing the mission, the friendly choppers went and hovered over a specific area the whole time, and it seemed like that forced the server to reserve all enemies for that area, because when we went there, we found 20+ technicals and a bunch of other ground units...

Yep, pull the hemmett next to the F-18. Jump in the F18. Scroll wheel menu will now have a "Service menu" option. Pick that and choose your loadout

Yeah there is an alive message and some blah blah blah turret message. Just click through and you'll be gtg. VAS does take awhile to load when you first jump in. That is why there is V.A. as well, people can use whatever they prefer. You could also use the boxes all over the spawn area to arm up then use VA / VAS to save the loadout. Don't forget some meds! |

Takistan map is coming along nicely. It even appears to play better than Fallujah since the map is more spread out. The scenario is that the peshmerga have been largely crushed by ISIS due to the lack of definitive involvement by the international community. ISIS has commenced a general invasion of the mountainous Iraqi Kurdistan region. A small token outpost of UN peacekeepers in the area has come under attack. You are part of a mercenary outfit going in to kick ass and chew bacon. Your team has managed to secure a few abandoned armored vehicles left over from the american occupation along with a few Iraqi assets.

Report any bugs you find here, so I can squish 'em. I know the C130 imbeds its ass into the ground. Still working on that wonky plane. Doug and I found out that you can actually use a stratotanker to refuel a fighter in the air. Kinda neat.
