If you're designing Arma 3 missions, you might have noticed many new or updated interfaces, like loading screens and debriefings. We're documenting them as they're being added in Mission Presentation page on Community Wiki. Please read the articles, link them when someone asks about their contents (e.g., how to configure loading screens) and expand them in case you find some useful info.

this is my map. (More images if you scroll down) https://imgur.com/a/J0juir3 there is a lot of objectives to capture, and the notification bar is going hot.. is there a way to disable the notification when me or an AI capture an objective?

Hey y'all, I am working on a mission in which I would like to have a notification (BIS_fnc_showNotification) displayed to the opposite team. As in: - Blufor player enters the trigger area - All Opfor players (and only opfor players) see the predefined notification on screen I cannot wrap my head around how to execute this command for side. Is that even possible? Anybody willing to help? Thanks in advance! Dj

I made a class CfgNotifications in my description.ext for a mission. I i want to put some notification during the mission. When the Notification pop, an icon is display with this lane : iconPicture = "\A3\ui_f\data\map\mapcontrol\taskIcon_ca.paa"; I searching for a official name icon list, like this : "\A3\ui_f\data\map\mapcontrol\taskIcon_ca.paa" Someone can help me ? :)

I'm working on a mission that doesn't have re-spawns and designed for quick firefights. My intention is to design a mission for a dedicated server with the following: If all Blufor (players) are killed, failure If time runs out, failure If all Opfor units are killed, victory Notify all players (even dead) when there is one player remaining Notify all players (even dead) when there is one enemy remaining have the same number of units and type of unit on the enemy side, i.e. 1 autorifleman blufor and 1 autorifleman opfor (shown in the initServer.sqf is already working) My experience with multiplayer scripting is limited and I'm struggling to understand why it works in local hosted multiplayer (as the host alone) but not on dedicated servers, issues include: After starting the operation using the action (see flowgraph) the LastMan.sqf will start running immediately, even with 2 blufor players Server, after starting the operation using the action, will stop updating unit positions and AI will not react. All players except yourself are running in place, coupled with sudden spikes in framerate loss when initially activated and unable to kill enemies. Enemies don't react to being shot or standing directly in front of them even. this problem isn't present on the locally hosted Possibly an issue of the server ending the mission locally but not for clients (just a guess)? Mission must still be working enough to continue the countdown timer, mission fails properly when timer reaches zero Maybe I should be getting rid of triggers entirely? But it always seemed like they synced across multiplayer better Using the trigger and (count Thislist < 2) is that when all remaining players enter one vehicle, it counts as one unit and starts the trigger Tried using setting the triggers to server only and using Bis_fnc_MP but led to the mission immediately ending upon starting the operation action Code Flowgraph Mission Source https://drive.google.com/file/d/0B85GbOCq33caWlhHNW1KcENzV00/view?usp=sharing Thanks for the help on this issue
