It can be difficult getting started with Arma 3. There are many mods and you can tweak a lot of settings. This page is still under development, but the goal is to show you how to get started and list some useful Arma 3 resources.
Mods
We use several mods on our TG so we've created a modset containing all the mods we use for easy download. To get started, see SAS_Fluffy's guide on Downloading the A3 Modset with A3Sync.
- Arma3Sync autoconfig URL: ftp://hereford.sasclan.org:2121/A3Mods/.a3s/autoconfig
Configuring the Arma 3 mods
1) Move your Userconfig folder
Locate the folder named Userconfig in mod folder where you downloaded your mods to. Move the folder to the root of your Arma 3 directory.
2) Advanced Combat Radio Environment 2 (ACRE 2)
Usually you can install the TeamSpeak plugin using Arma3Sync. In case you have any troubles, you can visit the official site which contains a lot of info on installation as well on usage.
- ACRE 2 Usage Guides: Information about installation, features of ACRE 2 etc.
- ACRE 2 Radio Guides: Information about the different radios and how to use them.
- AN/PRC-343 PRR: used for internal communication in fireteams.
