How to Setup the Support Modules! 

Welcome! 1. Never used it myself but i believe what it does is it acts like a "general" in a mission, cant say for sure, but the wiki explains and shows different setups with it, take a look: community.bistudio.com/wiki/Arma_3:_MP_Support_Guideline 2. Yes i've used them in my own missions through mp lan, and on a rented server and had no issues.

Disable damage in the vehicle's attributes, and or in the vehicle's init box put this allowdamage false; works either way. Ya details help, but trying to keep videos short and to the point is a bit of a challenge when you start adding a ton of details. This tutorial is basically for the new player to show them the basics of how to do it. Side mission template from a script, never done one so no cant help you there. Good points though and welcome back!

Can you show me how to make the supply box a Virtual ammo crate so I can resupply my men without the default items?

Why are you pressing 0?

@@Gunter_Severloh I figured it out, it was a few mods messing with each other, reset and used only mods I needed, fixed the issue and I gotta hit backspace then 0-8 when using it

Yes you can.

I never tested this but assuming the plane spawns at the module position, you could raise their spawn point to high enough altitude so that when they do spawn in, their high enough off the ground to be able to continue into level flight. You could also add the community.bistudio.com/wiki/flyInHeight to the module for the plane, idk if that would work though, but try the module height first and see if that does the trick.

Broken in mp? Are you sure, never had issues with it in mp myself, runs fine in mp lan, what modules are you using and what type of mission are you playing with other scripts i presume and mods? And what do they all do?

@@Gunter_Severloh On dedicated - sorry. It runs fine in local MP or in SP. Modules used were artillery and Supply drop.

@@TheLukio Ya then idk, you'll probably need a script for artillery and supply drop then, for supply drop you can use the HAS script forums.bohemia.net/forums/topic/220740-hermes-airlift-services-script/ wouldn't know any other way around for getting the modules to work, it might actually a game bug or something else that the devs need to fix related to them being used on a dedicated. Should report it on the feedback tracker and see what they say.

@@Gunter_Severloh Cheers mate. Just wanted to say your posts on the forums and your collection of links have been handy quite often, o7. Just recently found your channel here

@@TheLukio Cool man, glad my work in the community has benefited you and anyone else, thats the whole idea ;)

Need details on your setup, so just saying it has no function tells me very little, idk if your using the virtual module or the other one.

@@Gunter_Severloh I use the virtual module and cannot make the a-10 appear

@@julienfrisson9372 Make sure the Support Provider: CAS (Bombing Run, Virtual) module is synced to the Support Requester module, and the player is synced to the Support Requester module. Also make sure that the Support Provider: CAS (Bombing Run, Virtual) module is far out away from the player so the plane has time to travel and be in the air. When you have those setup then ingame make sure you go to 0 then 8 Supports in the radio menu. Also refer to the timestamp and review that part of the video: 9:20 CAS Bombing Run Virtual

@@Gunter_Severloh that's exactly what I did and nothing it does it bombs the position my doesn't hit the gau-8 cannon and displays a script error I don't know why?

@@julienfrisson9372 Whats the error?

Old bug cant do nothing about that, google that bug and see if it shows on the Arma 3 feedback tracker, it should have been reported a while back.

Ya i just experienced this bug this morning with a helicopter, idk what it is, or what causes it but it only happens when the player is in the heli.

Hi, your welcome, old or new dont matter ask any questions you need help with, older videos are still information about how to do something in the game so regardless dont matter to me. For multiplayer thats a bit trickier, but do this onlineCombatBN explains it best here and shows you how to restore the modules. ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-cu88CZqThuY.html

@@Gunter_Severloh "You instantly solved a problem that has been troubling me for a long time. Thank you very much!

Try my mod instead, its a script and mod, which ever you want to use, works best with vanilla assets but should work np with any mod heli's. steamcommunity.com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=1610601744 Theres a link to 2 forum threads if you need help, one for the script and one for the module. Also tutorial there on how to setup the module and script, easy to use with alot of features. Only workaround i know of aside the vanilla cas module.

@@Gunter_Severloh Oooh awesome, thank you so much man this should help greatly.

@@mbrad9379 Welcome, again any questions if you decided to use either script or module, not both at once, then ask on the release threads linked on the workshop page. Cheers!

Hi incorrect range could mean your not within the range of where the artillery can shoot. I've seen it before but i think you need to choose closer targets.

@@Gunter_Severloh I think that too, but can I turn off this range? Or can I see the range on map? Not only in artylery calculator

@@bednar560 I dont think you can, unless you specifically code it to do so, cant really help you there best ask on BI forums about the artillery and the artillery computer.

In the module itself, at the bottom it says "crate init" in that you can use this code: clearMagazineCargo _this; clearItemCargo _this; clearWeaponCargo _this; _this addMagazineCargo ["classname", 10]; where it says classname, put the classname of a weapon, ammo, or whatever, you can get classnames from the assets wiki, or from the config viewer. The 10 part is how many of that item. Another way from what i understand never tried it is to sync an ammobox with weapons/ammo you want to use to the module itself. You could create a custom ammobox by placing an ammobox, editing its content and adding/subtracting what you want and dont want. Then sync that box to the module, try it.

@@Gunter_Severloh yeah I'll try creating a custom box and synching and check. Just to make sure do I synch the custom crate to the Support Provider module or to the heli?

@@6komodo6 Sync the box to the module.

@@Gunter_Severloh tried to synch it but didn't work

@@6komodo6 Have you tried a vanilla box, if a vanilla ammobox works then customize that.

Might be in the module itself a box where you can define a classname of an ammobox.

Sorry i didn't see your comment, put down a uav and sync it to the module, that should work.

Welcome!

Nice!
