Making Arma 3 missions in the editor is sometimes more fun than playing the missions ngl
So true! 🤣
Ye but the ai is a pain in the ass😂
Hell yeah but also frustrating asf at times😭. Especially with scripting
I haven't played Arma in years but I have 800hrs and I'm pretty sure 750 of them were in the editor.
ye I love it. I love building good looking missions. with around 100 mods😂@@EazyE11
I love when I set up ambushes, I still get scared 🤣 knowing I did it
Mee too.
😂😂😂
PTSD but fun lol
@@honkodelord9227 ptsd? Fun?😬
i just use Pressure IED's in a convoy and first vehicle goes boom, then hell begins.
Simple plans do have less room for error. Which applies to mission making too. Ill have to take a look at that method. Might consider doing a longer tutorial based on this short but go into more depth and showcase more ideas
@@TacticalWestOfficial there is a “false” way to simulate the pressure plate part of it very reliably by specifically entering a list of units that will satisfy the present condition of the trigger. So for example let’s say you have a convoy with dismounted infantry and only want a vehicle to be able to trigger the IED, you could just give all your vehicular units a name like “a1”, “a2”, “a3” and use the *thisList* command to activate the trigger when any or all of those units enter the trigger. I forget the exact way to write it bc it’s been a while but there’s def info on google. I think you can also just sync units as the trigger owner of the IED trigger and do it that way without any scripts at all. Hope that helps add options for u without over complicating
Thanks for the info
@YeaaIJusShiddedOnEm alternatively you could just use a condition which checks if a vehicle is in the trigger zone, that way it will always work for any situation, without needing to use endless variable names
I love the eden editor. So many possibilities to set up great scenarios.
indeed. indeed.
I also love how I can set enemies randomly around the map in towns and stuff, then make a base for my team. Then build scenarios with that as the base, so when I'm traveling to objectives I also have to worry about going through towns filled with enemy troops
I spawned 9000 chickens and tried to run them over, and my game moves 1 fps every few minutes
Also disable AI’s mine detection, because Arma AIs are capable of seeing landmine and IEDs
Thanks for the info
How do I do that?
how do you disable ai mine detection?
Should be a script for it that can be in the init or something along those lines, I'll have a geeze for ya in half an hour.
@@TacticalWestOfficialHave you gotten it yet?
Arma really changed my perception for war games, it’s so realistic to the point that if I play battlefield I will get angry over how fragile your weapon is compared to real life.
Thats because arma techmically isnt a game. Its an official combat simulator of the US Army.
This is the single best way to start learning the Arma 3 editor. Uses variables triggers and syncing plus motivates the hell out of you when you make something cool like this happen for the first time. It's exactly how I got started before 3Den was even a thing
❤️🔥 not too many put out tutorials nowadays we need folk like you brother we all appreciate your work very very much personally I’m a professional but I remember when I used to be watching these vids years back which even then was fairly dated out much love to you my friend.
I’m relatively new to arma 3 and am still a long ways from being good at the Eden editor and yeah, there’s really not enough tutorials getting into the basic stuff and how to use em.
Glad to see that I am not the only one who still uses MCC Sandbox! I saw it in your modules selection. 🎉
Yeah it's so great to have, makes it so easy to set up a quick mission for all of the guys
I know this is 6months old but thank you. I just started learning Zeus and I'm setting up a star wars scenario. This is perfect
Thank you so much. But now I am intrigued to how an IED is going to work in a star wars situation. As always glad to be able to help.
@@TacticalWestOfficial The way I'm doing it is my friends are playing the republic and I'll be using Mandalorians as an insurgent group. I'm planning on them transporting supplies and once that goes off there will be a group of mandos in a nearby position waiting for them
This does use the Arma 3 better convoy mod however it is not required for the ied to work, it just makes the ai drive better xD

Is this mod where those humvees came from? Id like to get those. Also, can one get a mod to replace the whipeout with the older, more realistic A10 skin?
@@joeferris5086 Why Hellos there, I am using the RHS Mods for the Humvees soldiers and basically everything most of the current/2000s Military environment and assets . it does also include a current A10 straight out of Afghanistan. :) hope this helped
@@TacticalWestOfficial thx!
@@TacticalWestOfficial what map are you using?
@@samb4678 Takistan Mountains I think
Eden editor is the best. I learned to fly v44 in a week and was able to train myself to pilot and fire the cannons with accuracy
Way to go!
Ill say it again , thank you to gamers like this with hints and tips
Thanks man, really appreciate the kind words!
This Iraq road trip simulator looks lit ngl
🤣🤣
brooooo yt recommended me this short right after I watched a video about the IRA 😭
If only reforger had these mechanics, they just really had to start from ground up, damn that new engine.
I know right! an 3den editor would have made it so much better on release
Enjoy the tutorial
I have I problem, if the a leading car cant drive anymore all the others behind it wont overtake that car to head forwards.
You want ptsd? Try running in the forest with your boys in Hell Let loose. Just chattin the shit, then its just pink mist and screams.
Haha, if only my friends had money 😂
Just got the game after I finally finished setting my pc up and I can’t wait to mess around with this thing and see what kinds of things I can create to make videos for my channel
Congratulations Mate 🎉 Welcome to Arma!
@@TacticalWestOfficial thanks man😁😁
Arma III “ptsd now included”
😀👍
hehehe
Thanks man very helpful 🙏🔥🔥
Glad it could help.
I feel like Ignis Corps could use a few of these. Especially since they love their high attrition Arma 3 games against various races of monsters.
I also know for a fact... IEDs are a fast way to teach players to space their dang convoys out; because the number of ops people run where they blow up 3 or more vehicles because they tail gate each other is ridiculous.
That is so true 🤣
ive yet to get into the editor but this might have tipped me over the edge.
Join the darkside 😂
@@TacticalWestOfficial damn, now its gotta be a star wars mission 😄
"PTSD inducing"
Five Finger Death Punch vibes
I have a hundred half finished missions. I wish my friends still played :(
yeah I hate it when that happens.
Arma reforger needs this
Indeed. Arma 4 will have an 3den editor equivalent though.
@TacticalWestOfficial do you know if that will be on xbox, because I know that arma 4 is coming to xbox
@@SUP3R2069 Probably not. It is quite a poweful tool and I dont think Xbox could handle it very well with keybinds and code etc.
Kindness not saying you get to know when you say Man
Hey! Can you do a video on how to code an actual ambush, like the enemy ai waiting for the convoy to pass and not firing until then, and when it passes it starts firing, etc?
Already have, here's a link to the video: ruclips.net/video/0x-Ku_SBzoM/видео.html
:)
@@TacticalWestOfficial Thank you!
All good.
That's pretty cool
Can you please do a video on fps. I have pretty good PC and Im running no mods with low settings and as soon as I spawn a few enemys in the editor I go down from 120 FPS to 30 FPS
Sadly I don't have much experience with performance in Arma, it is a very CPU Intensive game, and doesn't really care much about what gpu you have. If by a few enemies you mean like 10-50, there's definitely something wrong, but each enemy ai uses your CPU, and squad leaders use more CPU than squad members as they need to decide things. There a plenty of golden videos out there regarding performance in Arma and how to optimise, definitely suggest giving them a watch.
Thanks 🙏🏻
bro please post your video settings man, love your videos ❤
Aww thanks, will do.
Nice, thank you!!!
Glad you enjoyed it.
noice one
Thank you. :)
Imagine that I only played Arma to script my own missions and play and test different scenarios
Don't we all.
All they do is just stay there, and when I add my own paths, they stop right before the trigger
Could be a path finding issue in the map, you don't have to use the better convoys mod to use the ambush method, you could have players drive or set waypoints just remember to set the behaviour to safe and place the waypoint beyond the ambush otherwise they'll stop at the waypoint, which will be a problem if the waypoint is before the trigger
@@TacticalWestOfficial oh thank you very much
Ptsd inducing...My this world is sooooo strange
Awesome!
Hey guys : just made the start of Iron Man

Can i run arma 3 on this anyone
what he didnt tell you is to get better convoy on the workshop
@@Redwood1993 yeeeah I forgot
This way is Very unreal. It's not simulating the enemy spotter and detonation at all. It's working like a game not like a simulator. You can do much better and you can make the enemy AI to set the explosives and wait as spotter.
You certainly could, however showing how to do all that in a 60 second short, not so easy.
@@TacticalWestOfficial good point. I'm a mission maker not a RUclips content creator XD
wish this had an option 4 horizontal wide screen, me old eyes need help
I'm sure there's be a mod for it
It might help if you give a move command upon trigger to opfor so that way you're just not setting off an ied and that's the game. Because that's kinda boring.
Indeed here is my full tutorial on adding opfor troops, and technicals into the ambush: ruclips.net/video/0x-Ku_SBzoM/видео.html
What mod is the convoy icon from?, thanks great video
Should be in the pinned comment mate. 🙂

more tutorial for Arma 3 plz..
along with script lines
Alrighty Mate, Will do. Anything in particular?
No mate.. just want to know how the Eden things works..
already completed the campaigns several time.. it's time to do some Eden things, and I found your video useful.
so make some detail video of Eden tutorial and mission making..
Much thanks.
Also explain the Script line things, I do suck in it..😅
@@indrsextreme8371 Will do.
I've played thousands of hours and still can't make missions but I ha e some issues also
Just keep trying matey. You'll get there!
I dont have the "convoy" option in effects, what should i do?
It's a mod, check the comments for the link to it
How do I put down the IED?
Its in props (Yellow tab).
Ah cheers mate
What were the vehicles used in this?
RHS:USAF vehicles
@@TacticalWestOfficial Thanks.
@@LeoKBass No problem :)
roblox looking real
Haha yup
Love making ambush and stealth missions but making the AI behave is a pain 😭
idk if you still respond but hopefully you do, is the whole convoy/IED thing a mod, because I cant find it anywhere in the editor
Yes, the convoy module is a mod: steamcommunity.com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=2801179774
Hay could you make a vid on how to set up a Zeus server from Eden?
Sure, In short form I assume?
ruclips.net/user/shortsgU17ncLG2tg Here you go mate. :)
I found out that it creates a noticeable freeze when it blows up. Mods maybe?
Weird, doesn't happen for me.
@@TacticalWestOfficial I'm sure its nothing to do with the TRUCK loads of mods I run. Don't sweat it man this was a cool help.
nice
Is Arma 3 only on PC
Yeah mate. PC only. Anything else would turn into an IED trying to run complex missions with mods.
What mods are you using for all of this? Like the vehicles and models
RHS:USAF (Red Hammer Studios) is what I used.
RHS:USAF (Red Hammer Studios) is what I used.
@@TacticalWestOfficial Okay, thanks!
How the hell is your arms performance so good in-game? 7800XT here, but only 30 FPS 😂
What's your CPU? Arma 3 is a very CPU intensive game
@@TacticalWestOfficial Ryzen 7 5700x
That's interesting, are you getting 30fps with just a couple things placed in the Eden editor?
@@TacticalWestOfficial Negative. Just very poor performance whenever I load up the Antistasi mod with a couple a friends
I’m so confused how do you have that many vehicles
They are part of the RHS mods
Wait its not the cup vehicles?@TacticalWestOfficial
@@TacticalWestOfficial oh damn it
Nah, the video uses a cup map, but no those are RHS USAF assets
Wassup?
what kind of mod. u using firefight sounds amazing to me?
JSRS Soundmod, Enhanced Sounscape, and DynaSound 2
Damn
If you want to go more indepth, new tutorial here: ruclips.net/video/0x-Ku_SBzoM/видео.html
what map is this?
Takistani mountains if I remember correctly.
thanks!@@TacticalWestOfficial
is there any way to randomize this so it plants IEDs randomly on roads?
Not that I know of, you'd need to get into scripting for that.
Tactical Garrys Mod.
Check
Haha, your not wrong 😂
Name is mod vehicules
?
@@TacticalWestOfficial "I don't know much English, I speak Spanish, but I would like to know the names of the mods you use."
RHS, ACE, CUP Terrains etc
My my convoy won’t drive. What do I do?
Did you group all of the vehicles separately?
Wow
How to rotate objects?
Shift left click
I understand this was months ago and I'm late to the party, although may I ask, what map is shown in the video?
CUP Terrains, Takistan Mountains
Thank you.
Convoys orent there for me??!
Hey mate, I shoulda specified but the Convoy module is part of a mod called better convoys
Anyone know why the convoy system isn’t showing up in my editor?
its a mod
steamcommunity.com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=2801179774
My humvees aren’t moving I did all of the steps what do I do?
Give the AI a moment, they can be kind of slow to do things, also ensure that each humvees crew is it's own group, you don't want to split a large group into multiple vehicles or it can break things quite quickly.
I dont know if its a mod but i dont see convoy in systems at all.
Its a mod, better convoy mod.
Or just put down a pressure plate ied and don't do all that's extra crap.
If you watch the full video I go into more detail on adding dhsk tekkies that open up after the explosion etc
I did what you said but the vehicles didn't move why?
Make sure that all of the vehicles and their occupants are in seperate groups to other vehicles, also give it a moment, it may take a minute for the ai to start driving, if that fails I have a full tutorial on my channel that goes a little more in depth.
Can you make AI simulations in Arma 3?
I am not sure what exactly you mean.
If you can provide more detail I might be able to help.
@@TacticalWestOfficial like make AI fight each other
Yup that is possible.
I dont have the convoy thingy
It'd a mod called better convoys. It's linked in other comments.
Cant get the convoy thingy,any help?
It's a mod, check the other comments. There's a couple links to it
I think they removed the convoy system, i dont see it
Check the shorts description
Counter game play it now those staying counter gthpp intelligence use counters intelligence use diligent kindness in army not just man when they say you mean boy
So it doesn’t cause any damage to the vehicle

Hey man could you make a video explaining how to make Ai troops patrol and actually shoot at the player or friendly forces?
Sure thing bud
How did you get so many army models like usa marine corps?i just got nato and ctrg

@@TacticalWestOfficial tyyy brooo
@@TacticalWestOfficial its on the steam worskshop?
@@esotilin720yes it’s a mod
What is the map name? How do you get the humvees and modern weapons, not futuristic? Just got Arma 3 for the middle eastern conflict, but cant find anything related to the middle east!
There are mods. RHS:USAF, RHS:AFRF, cup, lythium etc
my ai keep driving around the IED - any way to stop that?
Are you using the convoy module from the convoy mod? (linked in pinned comment) and have you set the group behaviours to safe?

I don't understand what darict is?
Convoy not in effects?
It's a mod, check the description and/or pinned comment. Hope this helps 🙂
Which kind of arms 3 do I get for this
I'm not sure what you mean. But I am using regular Arma 3 with RHS mods
for some reason mine does not do damage to vehicles
I am working on another Arma 3 tutorial video, it should do damage to the vehicle, but if it doesn't you can spawn explosions on the vehicle using script, it will be covered in Monday's video.
@@TacticalWestOfficial ok thank you
for some reason theres no convoy option in effects
