As told last night, heres the mod update! You can also see is a SHQ arma3 session "reboot"

As with the main package, download all the parts, then extract from the first one only.

Just extract it to your main Arma3 folder and click yes to overwrite. Theres a little change in this update as it consolidates everything (except TFAR and CBA) into 2 mod folders (one for terrain, one for everything else) To make conflicts less likely. The only thing you have to do is disable the extra folders in your arma3 launcher of choice so the mod line looks like the following -



I know its a big update, but we had a lot to update! New islands have also been added as well as some new explosive toys

As i'm at it, just an update for people. As all conventional methods failed, Adlabs has been toiling over his cauldron and made a script that pre-tunes all your radios not matter what, which means you wont have to do anything (hopefully!) to the radios at the start of the mission! That will be in all missions starting from next week.

Also, dont be afraid to join in progress, a couple of us have the ability to teleport people to their respective fireteams/right to our feet. So if you join late (and it isnt at the end of the mission) just type which slot you took into global/side and you wont have to walk. Theres some limitations though, like if its near the end of the mission, or if all the people that can teleport stuff are dead etc, but we'll do our best to get you to the front lines

I'm also working on a set of video tutorials that will cover the most used things, like the ACE3 systems, radios, the more technical weapons etc etc, so expect to see those over the coming weeks

We'll start all this starting Sunday 11th October, so next play session. If you run into issues, just shout up and we'll do our best to get you up and running

I'll be grabbing it tonight.

Thanks for the links.

Other than folders with the same names as these, are there any "dead" folders? That we used to use but no longer that can be dumped now?

the video in the "start here" thread shows how to install V3 of the SimHQ mod pack.. would be great if install instructions were updated on that thread.. a lil confusion with the radio mod, and now with this V4 update..

i hope someone is around tonight if there is a server that can be on to test loggin on to.. and check comms?

thanks! i hope to join you guys on amra3

the @ace,@RHSAFRF and @RHSUSF can be deleted if dont use those mods anywhere else

hannibal, i'll be updating all the sticky threads over the coming week to bring it all up to date.

thank you!.. ill hold off on installing addons until i see ur update?

The update�s lookin� good! Love the dynamic menu screen ... screenshot city!



What island is that? It's bloody gorgeous!

how to install? what to install!!!

You need to be at least a little computer savvy so I�m not going to hold your hand opening the 8 part rar archive in this �Getting Started� post ...

http://simhq.com/forum/ubbthreads.php/topics/3732626/SimHQ_Arma3_multiplayer_-_Star

Just extract the following mod folders from that archive into your ARMA3 folder (Steam/SteamApps/common/Arma 3) ...



Keeping that in mind, download the update Meatsheild just posted and extract all three folders from it into that same ARMA3 folder. Merge and replace everything when asked.

Once you�ve done that, run the ARMA launcher and set up a SimHQ Mod preset like this ...



Ya, I know ... I skipped the Task Force Radio setup so you won't see that mod when you run the launcher (unless you already have it installed).

That's your final step ...

ok cool i will do this when i get home...

What's the total file size?

6.56GB download, extracted ... no idea!

when i was merging folders with the radio mod, i kept the CBA_A3 from your V4 update instead of taking the CBA_A3 from the radio mod, but it doesnt i show up as CBA_A3 in the mods list, it listed it as community based addon... so i went to the actual community based addon website and got the latest CBA_A3 from there...

Good move. An even better move would be to subscribe to the Steam Workshop�s version of CBA here ...

https://steamcommunity.com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=450814997

It updates your @CBA_A3 folder automagically!

The CBA�s included in the downloads are fine but I think they�re just there as a baseline for newcomers.

i got my recent CBA_A3 from armaholic.com.. i tried to get it from steamcommunity. but i didnt see a download link... i did subscribe to the mod page but thats it,

can you tell us how you have CBA_A3 as an self up-dateable mod as it relates to steam workshop?

thanks!!

Ahhh, the beauty of Steam Workshop. Once you subscribe, it takes care of the rest.

I'm all updated and ready to rock and roll tonight.

I'm ready to waltz and lambada...the forbidden dance.
