 ALiVEbyALiVE Dev Team Description: ALIVE is the next generation dynamic persistent mission addon for ArmA3. Developed by Arma community veterans, the easy to use modular mission framework provides everything that players and mission makers need to set up and run realistic military operations in almost any scenario up to Company level, including command, combat support, service support and logistics. ALiVE is a dynamic campaign mission framework. The editor placed modules are designed to be intuitive but highly flexible so you can create a huge range of different scenarios by simply placing a few modules and markers. The AI Commanders have an overall mission and a prioritised list of objectives that they will work through autonomously. Players can choose to tag along with the AI and join the fight, take your own squad of AI or other players and tackle your own objectives or just sit back and watch it all unfold. Mission makers may wish to experiment by synchronizing different modules to each other, or using standalone ALiVE modules as a backdrop for dynamic missions and campaigns, enhancing scenarios created with traditional editing techniques. ALiVE can significantly reduce the effort required to make a complex mission by adding ambience, support and persistence at the drop of a module. Main features:
Installation: To install the ALiVE - Advanced Light Infantry Virtual Environment you should use modfolders to keep it seperate from the official game content to prevent issues. With Arma 3 you can use different ways to set up your modfolders to use custom content you have downloaded. Please visit the Arma 3 Mod install instructions page for more information about using custom mods and addons in Arma 3. Included files: - Usage: Manual: Please refer to the ALiVE Wiki. It’s not the prettiest but all the info you need should be there. If anything is missing or unclear, please let us know by submitting a ticket on our Development Tracker and we’ll look to fix it. Support Forum: For direct support and feedback from the ALiVE dev team, join us on Skype or sign up to the forum on our website: http://alivemod.com/forum/ Sample Missions: Sample missions can be found here: http://alivemod.com/missions War Room: Most of the ongoing War Room work is focussed on stability and robustness of the system as it sees more and more use every day. Many thanks to all those providing feedback and troubleshooting issues with the data feeds. You will soon see a significantly more enhanced Server Performance suite built into the War Room with some very powerful analytical tools for server admins. Even if you're not running persistent missions, we strongly encourage you do use the ALiVE Database module to record server stats so we can build a benchmark and provide everyone and BIS with invaluable performance data. We have added a new 'mission' that automates high quality image capture of any addons you have loaded so they can be uploaded to the War Room. Instructions are included in the demo folder. If you have missing images on your War Room profile, run this up and let us know so we can upload them for you. Join up now! ALiVE.OS - Open Source: We kept ALiVE closed during dev to facilitate source management, version control and support for what we knew was going to be quite a complex beast. However, we always intended to open up the source code once we had achieved a stable, feature complete release. We are now largely content that we have achieved that, notwithstanding the bugs that we are still working on and new features that we would like to include. So as of today we have changed the licence from a restricted Creative Commons to an open GPL v2 for all builds after 1.0.5.1605051 (the latest official release) and put ALiVE in a public git repo for everyone to fork as you wish. There are some caveats and everything is explained in the licence file but in short: 1. ALiVE is free software and may not be monetized in any way (that includes servers that try to get around it with "donations for perks") 2. You may release forks of ALiVE but please make it clear that it's not an official version to avoid confusing everyone. 3. We strongly encourage everyone to help develop the official Master version using git Branches and Pull Requests. Full details are on our Github wiki. Download ALiVE.OS - Open Source: https://github.com/ALiVEOS/ALiVE.OS Media: Armaholic.com has its own Youtube channel where we will cover the Community made releases. Subscribe to the Armaholic.com Youtube channel Future plans: After the release of 1.0, ALiVE development will be making a strategic change in direction. We kept the source code private during development in order to maintain control and facilitate support and error fixing. It is time to change that! With the widespread adoption of ALiVE, we believe that the mod will benefit from the combined resources of the community to allow it to continue to develop and flourish. There is still so much more that could be done with ALiVE both as a mod and a platform and we hope this will give the community the opportunity to take it to the next level. We will announce the details and support for this approach in the near future! Credits & Thanks: Acknowledgements and Thanks We wanted to take this chance to thank the following key people for their support and recognise the efforts of those that have dedicated so much time to this project: Wolffy.au - One of the original developers of MSO and helped kick off the MSO Next Gen vission that later became ALiVE Tupolov - A key contributor to MSO and one of the driving forces behind development of ALiVE, in particular the cloud-based persistence system, sitreps/spotreps/stats, IED system, ALiVE War Room and more. Highhead - Another former MSO developer and driving force behind ALiVE, building the AI Command & Control including the Operational Commander, Insurgency, CQB and so much more. He also implemented support for headless client and player logistics support. ARJay - ALiVE would not scale without the immense Virtual AI system created by ARJay. This system has been interwoven into many aspects of ALiVE and ARJay has contributed across pretty much all of the ALIVE codebase as well as being a lead developer of the ALiVE War Room, C2ISTAR and lots more. Friznit - We could not get anything done without a key focus on how ALiVE is used, implemented and simulates modern warfare. Friznit brought focus and organisation to the team along with his military experience, unique brand of PR and of course documentation! Jman - Our release master and general all round good bean who has contributed to the original persistence system and many admin and player helper systems. Gunny - Shepherded much of the ported combat support system (thank you Neo!) into ALiVE and assisted with a number of other systems. Secure - In our desire to remove dependence on .NET and Windows, Secure completely rewrote the plugin/extension system to make it multi-platform and faster Hazey - Helped with testing and support as well as custom compositions and the original insurgency mission for ALiVE SpyderBlack - Has been a huge help in supporting the community with his expertise as a mission maker and has written add-ons to ALiVE that have since been incorporated.

As I understand it, this is made my the MSO team of ArmA 2.. Right? If so then my question is, can I use this to make a MSO-type mission easily? I played with this when it first came up on armaholic and I loved the modules but couldn't get over the fact that all clients would need the mod. However if I could use this to create my own little MSO then I think I could probably work around that.
Another thing, I assume that the modules put down a certain type of unit. But what if I wanted to put down a CQB module that would place down a unit that isn't default? Can I easily change that type of thing? As I write this I'm thinking I'm probably a little bit of a dumbass for not just going in and seeing for myself but yeah.. I wrote it now lol!
I tried again. Can't even get the menu to open. The windows key does not work and when I bind custom key number twenty it does not work either. I followed the first tutorial exactly and still no go. I tried the sample mission and guess what? It would'nt even start. I really want to try this mod out more than any other and hope you can get it to version 1.0 in the near future.
OK. I have tried enough. This doesn't work. Back to MCC and Zeus for me.
Same problem to me! Can't save my custom mission! And when I disable Alive, then I can save in game. Why? Please, this mod is awesome, so try to correct that problem. (sorry I'm french :) ! )
Thanks!
saving is a real issue and my game is crashing after some heli flying on the map if i disable alive everything works well
I have to say that the only gripe I have is with the issue ALiVE causes with saving. Unless I'm actually planning on playing a mission that requires ALiVE, I have to disable the addon as it seems to inhibit my ability to save even in non-ALiVE missions. Otherwise, ALiVE is great. The unlimited avenues for mission design boggles my mind and I find the whole ALiVE experience to be quite user friendly. Good job!
For issues please post in the BIS forum thread or else your requests will go unanswered. For those wanting to save - in testing it was found that saving in SP caused crashes in Arma (out of mem errors) that is why it is disabled. ALiVE is designed primarily to work on dedicated servers with a database backend - this is the only 'supported' method of saving in ALiVE. Again please see BIS thread/ALiVE wiki for more details.
^ Just an update to my previous comment SP saving is now supported in ALiVE 0.80 - with the caveat that it still might crash Arma 3 when saving a large mission
Ok I will try it. I built a server just to run this thing.
I got a previous version to work and it was great but... y'all changed a LOT but haven't updated your tutorials. You have to- *have* to- update your documentation when you do that kind of overhaul. It's no one's favorite thing to do, but dang, this is just a jumbled mess to try to sort out into anything that works consistently- esp with more complex missions using custom factions, TAOS zones, etc. The old youtube vids ain't enough to cover this version.
Seems that maps like Bornholm and Australia are not compatible with Alive Mod 0.9.9.1506221. They are listed as supported maps but they didn't work.
When the Alive modules are placed in the editor on these maps I can't load into the maps. Without the Alive modules it works fine.
^ both maps are supported. Note that Bornholm has always been problematic.. YMMV. For a list of supported maps:
http://alivemod.com/wiki/index.php/Supported_Maps
Played around with this for like 10 mins. Wayyyy too confusing. And isn't compatible with Armed Forces of the Russian Federation. Even the tutorial made no sense.
- so people will not waste time -
the current version:
v0.9.10.1510131 for Arma 3 Stable 1.52.132676
this rev does NOT work 'well' with arma v1.54
even with current rev of arma, cba, and the above alive ver along with THEIR demo mission, it CRASHES my dedicated server EVERY time.
it DOES work on SP though..well it APPEARS to. it might crash after a while...have not played more than 30 mins SP.
@Brammo - there are lots of tutorials and sample missions - visit alivemod.com. Also works with RHS.
@z80cpu - crashing issue has been fixed
