Composing the Antistasi-Membership addon with your unit members for arma3

https://github.com/A3Antistasi/A3-Antistasi-Membership

  • Ensure you have the addon on builder from steam aram3 tool
  • Ensure it has the required c++ extension (arma3 tools has a link if you click the addon builder)
  • Go to the github repository
  • Download the code in zip file
  • Extract code & make a copy of the MemberList.hpp
    • (save that somewhere or rename it)
  • Add your team’s steam UID’s to the UID array or fill out the class information
  • remove which ever array or class you didn’t use
  • Run the build.bat file in the `AntistasiServerMembers` folder.
  • This makes a pbo file you can use with the pbo file in the `@AntistasiServerMembers > Addons`
  • The PBO file size might have gone up as you just added some names but might now.
    • There is sometimes when it fails silently & you get a 2kb sized pbo
  • Copy the @AntistasiServerMembers folder into the same directory as your arma3server.exe or the arma3.exe if you are not running a server.
  • Once the directory is in your arma3server directory,  you should be able add the name to the mod list on the `​arma3server.exe`​ parameters.
    • ​​-mods=@AntistasiServerMembers
    • See dedicated server configuration section where I blogged on batch files versus shortcuts for feeding parameters – Link on or Arma3’s maker page – Link
  • If you have the mod located in the right spots you will see
==== List of mods =====
...
@AntistasiServerMembers | @AntistasiServerMembers | false | false | GAME DIR
  • The check to see if the code in the mod is executing is to open the *.rpt log file (located where ever your specified the -profiles= directory.
  • If the files are in place
The"[ASMS] Info: AntistasiServerMembers: addon has been loaded"
  • Lastly, if you have another player who’s not an admin join – they should get a small welcome message.

Todo
