Nick Wong Posted December 9, 2014 Report Share Posted December 9, 2014 Alright so im totally new to adding mod's etc to my Arma 3, and i really don't understand what else i need to download in order to play on the epoch servers. I currently have downloaded: 1. E-mod 0.1 2. Epoch Mod 0.2.5.1 Is that all i need? i currently cannot get into the servers. Thanks, Nick Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MPG Posted December 9, 2014 Report Share Posted December 9, 2014 All you need is to download Epoch Mod 0.2.5.1 and copy the @Epcoh file into you ArmA III root folder. Replace any existing @Epoch that might already be there. Good luck. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nick Wong Posted December 9, 2014 Author Report Share Posted December 9, 2014 Is emod 0.1 not necessary ? I was told it was, and is there not map add on for 0.2.5.1 or is it included in the download Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Raaste Posted December 9, 2014 Report Share Posted December 9, 2014 It's hard to say this without sounding like a jerk, but there's pretty good instructions on the download page... :) EDIT: you probably didn't add the launch parameters? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Raaste Posted December 9, 2014 Report Share Posted December 9, 2014 did you add the "-mod=@Epoch" to your launch options in Steam? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BetterDeadThanZed Posted December 9, 2014 Report Share Posted December 9, 2014 In game browser Do you have the Epoch mod enabled in your Expansions settings? Personally, I suggest you use A3 Launcher. You don't have to worry about command lines and can join a server right from your desktop.

Nick Wong Posted December 9, 2014 Author Report Share Posted December 9, 2014 Okay, im just simply going to re download the whole file but yes i did have it enabled and it didnt seem like it was all downloaded, i wasnt getting the description on the side. @Raaste is that necessary? Edit: Should i download the mod through A3 Launcher? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

dzrealkiller Posted December 9, 2014 Report Share Posted December 9, 2014 #1 Download Epoch. #2 Open once downloaded. #3 Place @Epoch in C:\program files\steam\steamApps\common\Arma3 #4 Next open steam and right click ArmA 3 and click properties. #5 Click on "Set Launch Options" button #6 Paste this line in there: -mod=@Epoch #7 Save and close. Launch ArmA III and go to multilayer and click "Filters" In the host part type: Epoch Then press "OK" This will then pull up all epoch servers. Join one, play and enjoy :) Hope this helps you out :) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Primus Palus Posted December 9, 2014 Report Share Posted December 9, 2014 Make sure every other "mod" is NOT enabled in the expansions menu. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BetterDeadThanZed Posted December 9, 2014 Report Share Posted December 9, 2014 Why does everyone want to make it more complicated than it is? 1. Download A3 Launcher (http://a3launcher.com/) 2. Start A3 Launcher. 3. Click on the download link for Epoch 0.2.5.1. 4. After it's done installing, pick a server and join. No messing with command lines, copying files or enabling expansions.
