It uses inidbi, which is part of it.
If you have 64bit arma i would recommend getting both of the 64bit versions instead, linked above.

@Werthles I did not and I dont have an extra mod file I have to load. Is there one though?
MrK  [author] Sep 17, 2017 @ 12:46pm 
Did you alt-tab during loading? IDK why this breaks it but it does. Also not loading up the mod will do this.

I did host a server but still had these problems
MrK  [author] Sep 17, 2017 @ 5:45am 
Hey. The mission needs to be run via a multiplayer server. So you'll need to host one via the multiplayer menu, because this uses some multiplayer only code.

How does this work for singleplayer? I start gearless and cant do personal jobs, because it says that the max number of jobs are running

Thank you:steamhappy:
MrK  [author] Jun 23, 2017 @ 4:42am 
It's to hire people for personal jobs. They can be found in the menu system. These jobs can give you weapons/vehicles once you have delivered the cargo to the drop-off. Your squad for these missions will be paid out of your money. They also get a small amount of weaponry.

For what money? How to spend?

is it possible to play this is singleplayer

Hey there! The missions aren't displaying their names nor characteristics at all and when we go to them they're empty. All they display is the money upon completion but they ain't working, any clue?

This is one of my most favourite mission on Arma3 workshop!
in my top 5 of all time. Big thanks to the team that made this awesome mission
Totti Mar 5, 2017 @ 9:23am 
Wel hello there. loving ur mod but cant find a shop or a place to use the money. Where are the shops¿?
Thx

It does not work for me running on a local LAN server (no mods):
Personal jobs fail with a message telling me that the maximum number of jobs (7) is running.
Talking to a leader and pressing "Hire / Get Hired" does nothing but display "Location saved".

Also I am spawning completely gearless. Only after the first respawn I have a default gear with a silenced pistol.
Atlas1205 Mar 4, 2017 @ 3:53am 
we've implemented a shop system... players can now buy guns and clothing using money earned from jobs.
Atlas1205 Mar 3, 2017 @ 8:13am 
nevermind me, solved.
Atlas1205 Mar 2, 2017 @ 7:18am 
for some reason, when hosting from a dedicated server, "mission read from bank" was spammed indefinitely. i checked out rpt, but there is nothing suspcious.
however, i can host the mission from ingame without any problem. ideas?

How do I use the air taxi, I get in the back like the mission says and I have no useful menu options. Also having a bug where me and my friend can't hire each other, it says we're on another job even when we're freshly spawned.

We have a new stable public server running with this Map just checkout

TheMuffinMan Jan 26, 2017 @ 11:40pm 
Current bug, The Air Taxi tends to fall in the dip and get stuck on the main island. He also gets stuck on a prop near the Narcotics Leader.
B-Kun Jan 25, 2017 @ 6:35pm 
Thank you for fixing those issue. I am just curious is the clock "frozen"..... it seems like in my game it is eternal sunset, and I'm hoping it will become dark so I could do a night mission. Is there anyway I could change the time of day if time is not dynamic?
B-Kun Jan 16, 2017 @ 2:47pm 
Oh, one thing I forgot to mention.... when doing personal jobs recently I wasn't able to hire my friend. No error , nothing. I wonder if this is related to it....

The two missions that I know for fact will get those results for me are the Mt. Tanoa Attack Helicopter, and the Sniper Weapons Crate one nearby.
B-Kun Jan 16, 2017 @ 2:44pm 
Ok, so I've had this issue happen a few times now so I thought I should mention. It seems that eveytime I try to do personal missions it incorrectly thinks I'm not a squad leader. I can't interact with mission objects and get the "You have to be the leader" message even though I am the leader.

I don't know if it is every mission, or if is only limited to certain missions.... The two missions clossest to Mt. Tanoa fail 100% of the time now (maybe for about 1 or 2 weeks). I have succeeded those missions in the past, so maybe there was an update that I missed that broke them....

The missions given by NPCs work fine. It is just the personal missions.
Tomas Jan 15, 2017 @ 10:37am 
Yup, it works now, all good :D
Sabertom Jan 15, 2017 @ 6:34am 
Check your activated mods. I had the same problem until I unloaded the RHS Mod. After that the hired Civilians functioned correctly. Hope that helps.
Tomas Jan 14, 2017 @ 4:52am 
Hey bud, damn nice mission! But I did notice a few problems. Clean up of junk and no use for money has been metioned, but when I play alone I tend to hire AI, and the only good thing of that AI is that I can take their gear, apart from that they are useless, the don't engage the enemy even when I order them to. Or is there a speacial way to order them to attack? They don't even return fire nor get shot by the enemy, it's like they are not even there.
MrK  [author] Jan 13, 2017 @ 3:51am 
Thanks for all your feedback. Currently, I have made money solely for hiring players/AI for personal missions, which can then help campaign jobs etc. Money should also be able to be 'donated' from one player to another, which could be used to trade for weapons from other players. I'll look into suggestions of other ways to use money.
Digital Fulcrum Jan 13, 2017 @ 2:19am 
Thanks for your responces Werthles, thats awesome. We found what looked like the cache that we could loot from but there was nothing. We'll try again. Also, can we spend out money on things? Like buying weapons, gear, etc?
Sabertom Jan 12, 2017 @ 4:57pm 
I tried it again and it didnt work. So I tried the Equiment Raid and that was functioning. I gave the Weapon Raid another try and thats working fine now as well. :)

Thanks for your fast response. And for this awesome mod. Really enjoing exploring Tanoa in this way!
MrK  [author] Jan 12, 2017 @ 2:57pm 
You should have an action on your mouse wheel which say 'Loot - Distribute', if you have carried it all the way. It must be activated within range of the cache.
Sabertom Jan 12, 2017 @ 1:22pm 
When I do my first Personal Job (The Special Weapons Raid: Soft Target right beside the Starting-Airport) I can't finish the Job. I pick up the package and it tells me to bring it to a specific cache. I get it to the designated Cache but noting happens. What am I doing wrong?
Mastero Jan 11, 2017 @ 10:52am 
Just played this mission on the public server and I enjoyed it very much. The issue we experienced is that the dead bodies and stuff you drop on the ground stays there. It would be nice to add some cleanup script (Repetitive Cleanup by aeroson works pretty well). And I found no use for the money you earned by completing the objectives.
hangfire Jan 8, 2017 @ 7:25am 
I'd agree about the money aspect, there is a lot that could be built on there. Gun stores? Pay for helicopter fast transport? Hire a temporary AI controlled squad, or artillery, or air support? Pay for a supply drop?

It's very easy to get disposable top-end equipment, just hire some friendly mooks from town, loot them after they die in a mission. Since money doesn't seem to matter too much, there isn't much of a reason to not always hire out a full squad of AI's if you have the patience to hunt them down around town.

Very much enjoying the mission so far.
MrK  [author] Jan 8, 2017 @ 5:07am 
It needs to be launched via a local server, from the host server option, for solo play. Hope this is the issue!
Obi Wan can Blow me Jan 8, 2017 @ 3:12am 
I downloaded both the campaign and the HG2 Mod. in the launcher I load the mod but my Game won't find the mission in the scenarios... pls help
B-Kun Jan 7, 2017 @ 5:24pm 
Thank you! This is a very good dynamic campaign, BTW! My only issue with it (other than the one just resolved) was the money. It seems there isn't a whole lot of things to spend the money on, in the game right now. Do you plan to add more stuff like maybe weapons dealers, or maybe you can pay to change your "respawn gear" when you die.

The reason I bring this up because it sort of breaks the immersion of a "Hired Guns" type of game for me since economic portion of being a mercernary is a bit underveloped right now. It seems to be just a way of keeping score.... which I don't think most of the people who play cooperative Arma really care that much about in the first place.

Or maybe that stuff is already in there somewhere, but I totaly missed it.... if that is the case let me know.
MrK  [author] Jan 7, 2017 @ 4:43pm 
Yep!
Cado Jereck Jan 7, 2017 @ 4:21pm 
This looks like it would be fun, but does it support dedicated servers?
MrK  [author] Jan 7, 2017 @ 3:52pm 
Thanks for spotting this. This should be fixed now! Also fatigue is now an option in the mission parameters.
B-Kun Jan 7, 2017 @ 11:34am 
So is it just me or is the AI for the personal missions broken? I just completed 2 personal missions where the Ai didn't shoot a single shot. One of them I killed every AI from 20 to 50 meters away. I was looting a dead body then I look up, and 10 meteres away is an AI just standing there looking at me. Am I missing something? It seemed that even though they showed up as red on the map, they considered me thier ally.
MrK  [author] Jan 7, 2017 @ 6:03am 
I'm not sure what went wrong for you Digital Fulcrum, but I have added a description of the personal mission procedure to the descripton above. Did one part of the above description break for you or was the mission not clear?
Digital Fulcrum Jan 7, 2017 @ 4:34am 
I dont understand, how do we do one of these personal raids? I did the one near the airport for the SMG and nothing is there.
Azrael Jan 6, 2017 @ 1:50pm 
Cant seem to add people to my group
Ben Bober Jan 5, 2017 @ 2:11pm 
That explains why the game didn't save. I was testing out the server for tomorrow. So I didn't do any missions yet. And sorry, i'm blind. Didn't see the "Progress Saving". Thanks for your response.
