Thank you so much, you information is so useful and im actually working on a document based an referenced on your video but translated to Spanish, since there is not to much information on this language. Again thank you for thaking your time and to do this for the community of Arma itself and not something private for your Unit.

@AWanderingmage 11 месяцев назад

Great video, however there is a small error you made. You have longitude and latitude switched in the grid coordinates section 05:05. Longitude is the vertical lines while latitude is the horizontal lines. the finding of the grid coordinates part is correct though.

@ysoseriusqzc7547 Год назад

Amazing tutorial, only question I have is how do you enable the onscreen 6 digit? I can't seem to find the 'understanding ACE3' video.

@1AAFilms Год назад

By default, Arma shows the six-digit grid. ACE being a realism mod switches the map coordinates off. To switch them back on got Addon Options>ACE Map and click the Show Cursor Coordinates option. If playing on a server, this option needs to be set at the server level as well! Hope this answers your question!

@JohnRayMitch 4 года назад

Hi, do you have any tips for finding a group to play with? Being prior military, Arma scratches an itch but I don't know where to start looking for a group to play with.

@1AAFilms 4 года назад

This is a great question! First, determine what you're looking for in a group. How much of a time commitment can you make. What style of gameplay do you want? Do you want ranks? Do you want set roles? Once you know that, look on the BI Forums, Reddit and even Steam has a form for players looking for a unit. Bearing in mind the commitment you're making to a new group, you should make sure its right:) We review who we are, when we meet and what players can expect from the group on our forum. Most groups will have that info somewhere. Let us know if we're a good fit for you.

@THEpoppaSAUCE 6 месяцев назад

So I’m trying to make a mission, and I’m trying to place some map markers in Eden Editor, but I want to make specific markers only visible to certain sides. How do I do that?

@1AAFilms 5 месяцев назад

Apolgies for the delay. I've never tried this but thanks to the incredible Arma community found this; _shortenedSideThings = ["_B","_O","_I","_C"]; _things = [west,east,resistance,civilian]; { _x setMarkerAlphaLocal 0 } count (allMapMarkers select { private _marker = _x; !(_shortenedSideThings select {_marker find toLower _x != -1} isEqualTo []) && { _x find toLower (_shortenedSideThings select (_things find playerSide)) == -1 } }); It needs to be called from a sqf. You can find it here - www.reddit.com/r/armadev/comments/4c2fi1/hide_editor_placed_markers_for_side/ Good luck!

Just ALT+Left Click on the map when running an editor preview, otherwise you need to have a script or mod running :)

@moltenlord2053 2 года назад

Not sure about the Military, but every GPS, and map directions using grids has gone lat to long. Its also the way you're supposed to read it when navigation by boat.

@1AAFilms 2 года назад

Thanks for your feedback. From what we understand, reading a map is always across and up. www.advnture.com/how-to/how-to-read-a-map a non-military walk through notes; 'To take a grid reference, remember the useful phrase: ‘along the corridor and up the stairs’. As for longitude and latitude, they're used ingame as is shown in the video, but certainly appreciate the confusion
