New Multiplayer Mod! Arma 3 Resource War! Try it out now!

Hello All,

We have released our open alpha mod for Arma 3. This mod is called Resource War, well because it is a war over resources.

This is an open sandbox environment with base building, resource gathering, and a complete crafting system.

What makes this mod so great:

• Base Building (Build a base from scratch, walls, floors, storage areas)
  
• Crafting System (Everything in the game was crafted by another player)
  
• Player Driven Economy (Player set the price of items for sale)
  
• Auction House Style Traders (Set price and quantity of items/resources you crafted for sale)
  
• Persistent Database (Everything is saved after restarts)
  
• Ability to capture resource locations (90+ different resource locations to capture and hold)
  
• Hire-able NPC to guard your base (AI units that can guard your base)
  

What we want: We want a fun environment for teamwork and PVP. We have a few features that are being worked on for the BETA version such as a proficiency system. We are open to the communities ideas on how to improve the game and add additional content, so if you have any suggestions we want to hear from you!

But how do you setup your own server for this? I am working on a game mode and am interested in incorporating this mod into it. I am using ALiVE for the AI. I want to test the building mechanics but do not see a way to do it from the editor.

Cool!
