Vandeanson's Apocalypse 3.0

Welcome to Vandeanson’s Apocalypse 3.0

***
MOD IS NO LONGER UNDER DEVELOPMENT
While I would have loved to resolve some of the major bugs and remove some of the hard-coded features users tend to complain about, I lack the time and will to invest further into this project.
I had a great time dabbling in ARMA together with The Dude and it was fun to chat with many of you live on the dev streams.
Hopefully some of the mods features are still enjoyable to some of you ARMA 3 Survivalists;)

or VA is a highly adjustable, survival sandbox framework that spices up every mission you create or play by adding sites of interests, events, enemies, survival elements and loot to your world.

VA is not a MISSION but a sandbox framework that runs along with any mission you play.

VA is using the inidb2 mod for persistency.
The Dedicated Server/Hosted MP host must have the inidb2 mod activated. (Clients don't need the mod)

Subscribe to INIDB2 by Code34:

Note: Add a local INIDB2 copy to your launcher (for Hosted MP Hosts) or your Dedicated Server, dedicated to the current mission/server, else you will load in player saves from previous missions/server setups.

Most Gear/Weapon Mods | Ravage (except the survival, loot and gear modules, I generall recommend to only use "Ambient AI" and "Ambient Zobies" modules together with VA) | Z&D | Devourers Necroplague Mutants | Raptors
Note: the VA Infection system only works with Ravage Zombies.

Not compatible with ACE Medical, no plans to make it compatible

600+ CBA Settings to adjust most aspects of the Mod

REQUIREMENTS

This mod requires only CBA_A3.

INSTALLATION

- Subscribe to VA and activate the Mod in your A3 Launcher.

- Subscribe to and activate the Mod in your A3 Launcher.

HOW TO USE

- Start your mission, VA will start spawning in its FEATURES according to the default settings.

OR

1. Open a new or existing mission in the A3 Eden Editor.

2. Open - > Settings - > Addon Options -> Vandeanson’s Apocalypse (various sub-menus).

3. Adjust the settings to your liking (you may save your preferred settings to easily copy for another project

(press save within the CBA_A3 settings menu).

-> Make your changes under the SERVER tab and click the checkboxes to overwrite MISSION and CLIENT. This will block other players to change settings in MP and it will align the settings.

4. Save your mission in the Eden Editor. Your current settings are saved to this mission now

5. Further adjust your mission or start to play

Adjust your VA settings for your Dedicated Server: Settings can be exported using the export function of the CBA Settings menue and be pasted into an optional file in the userconfig folder. The filepath is Arma 3\userconfig\cba_settings.sqf, where "Arma 3" is the games installation folder.
This works for a dedicated server as well as the clients, but requires the -filePatching startup parameter.
