  • This video explains how to use the workshop and install mods in Arma Reforger
    Hello and welcome back to another ARMA Reforger tutorial video.
    In this video I'm going to explain to you how to use the workshop and mod manager.
    Once you've loaded the game, click the large workshop button in the bottom left.
    By default it will show you all workshop items, sorted by popularity, with the most popular mod first.
    Lets look at the first mod for example, which looks to add the M4 and MK18 with attachments into the game.
    To download it, simply click the mod and a download icon will appear, click it again. You'll then be prompted if you want to confirm the download. At this point, if there are dependencies (Other mods which are needed to make this mod work) you will be prompted to download them too. If there are no dependencies, it will just download the mod.
    By default, newly downloaded mods are automatically enabled. But we can double check that
    Once complete, head over to the mod manager at the top, if they've been automatically enabled, your mod will appear under the enabled column.
    If not, you can highlight the mod under the Disabled column, and press the right arrow and your mod will now be enabled.
    If you want to delete a mod, highlight it and press the bin, this will ask you if you want to delete the mod.
    Lets now go back to the main menu screen, if your mod is enabled, you'll see a number next to the jigsaw puzzle piece in the top right hand corner. You can use this to create a preset of your favourite collection of mods and export the modlist in a JSON format. This is mainly used when setting up servers to specify which mods to run on the server.
    On a side note, if you join a server which has mods enabled (jigsaw piece in the server listing), you'll be prompted to download the required mods when joining.
    So with our mods downloaded and enabled lets test them in Game Master. Spawn in a character and weapons crate and we can see that we now have more weapons with attachments available to use.
    I hope you've found that useful, if you have please leave a comment and don't forget to like and subscribe!

      So disable every mod and enable 3. Start game master and see if they work. Then go out add 3 more and repeat. Better death animations is what was my problem

    • @slughead
      @slughead  7 місяців тому

      You'll have to change where you install the game. Uninstall it, reinstall it and the first option you get is where do you want to install. pick another drive and select create new steam library.

    So for example, i downloaded the dayz and all dependencies. I activate only those, host a serever, select the dayz and launch. I get a fail to launch and it lists every mod in the dayz thing.

    • @slughead

      If you're planning on hosting the game from PC including mods, I'd always suggest look at running a dedicated instance and listing the mods as prerequisites in the config from there.

      No mod then, not much else to say, I've been able to get mods not on the workshop by joining servers since your forced to download them, not much use but unless your a PC server owner (not sure about console) I don't think you can get stuff not on the workshop

      This is usually a dodgy mod, try remove them all and reinstall. this can also be a server that specifies mods and you've not got the right one on.

    While I was playing Arma Reporger, there was a bug where two of the same mods were installed at the same time... I tried to delete it, but it didn't work... How can I fix this? The name of the mode is ‘vergy custom cloths’. Since two of these are installed, a conflict occurs when entering another server. Is there a way?
