Getting the Modset

1. Installing Arma3Sync

Arma3Sync is a third-party Arma 3 launcher that solves many of the problems from installing large mods through the Steam Workshop on the default launcher. As such, we use it to manage the Chillsim con Chazzie modset.

  1. Be sure Java is installed. Download it here if needed1).
  2. Download Arma3Sync here. The default options are fine in the installer.
  3. Navigate to the Arma3Sync directory (it defaults to C:\Program Files (x86)\ArmA3Sync), right click on the Arma3Sync.exe, select “Properties” and check “Run this program as an administrator”2).
  4. Open Arma3Sync and allow it to update if it needs to.

2. Configuring the Arma 3 Folder

  1. Wait for a Configuration prompt to appear that asks for an “ArmA 3 executable”. If it doesn't show up, click the “Launcher Options” button at the top and continue.
  2. Click the “Select” button and find your ArmA 3 executable (be sure you choose the x64 one). If you installed it on the default location through Steam, it should be in C:\Program Files (x86)\Steam\steamapps\common\Arma 3\arma3_x64.exe.

3. Making a Mod Folder

Arma3Sync lets you choose where your mods can be installed to, separate of where Arma itself is installed. The modset is big (>20 GB) so choose a spot in your File Explorer that has plenty of space. I'd recommend on a separate hard drive if you have one, otherwise making a folder in the Documents folder or on the Desktop is good.

  1. Once you chose where you want your mods to be stored at, make a folder there and call it CCCMods.
  2. Then, in Arma3Sync, click on the “Addon Options” tab, and press the blue plus sign on the right.
  3. In the window, navigate to where you created the CCCMods folder and confirm it.

4. Adding the Repositories

For each module you want to install:

  1. In the list of modules, copy the Auto-Config URL of the module you want to add to Arma3Sync into the clipboard.
  2. Click on the “Repositories” tab, and then click the blue plus to add a Chillsim con Chazzie repository.
  3. Paste the URL into the “Public auto-config URL“ box.
  4. Click the “Import” button, and then press “OK”.

List of Modules

I split the modset into a few modules. You must install the Main module to play, everything else is optional and you can install them if you want :)

Required
Optional

FIXME The server isn't currently setup to allow anyone in with these mods, skip them for now!

5. Downloading the Mods

  1. Select the repository you just added
1)
Be careful and don't install the stupid browser bar and other crap it prompts you when you install Java
2)
Some mods break without running as Administrator. Blame Bohemia, not me
