Making Arma 3 a better place for all members of the 2nd Battalion, Nord Brigade.

Dependencies

Required

Recommended Mods

Whilst 2BNB Essentials don't depend on the following mods, some individual functionality will be missing without them:

Credits

  • GRAD developer, for their gruppe_adler_mod and allowing us to use parts of it for the basis of some of our addons

For Developers of this mod

Install

We have a build system to allow for key signing and addon compiling.

Requirements

  1. Git for Windows
  2. Windows PowerShell v5.1 or higher

Automated Process:

To automatically set up your system and build the mod you can execute the included build.bat file. You can do this by either going to \tools and double clicking the build.bat file, or if you use VSC you can select the bat file then in the TERMINAL at the bottom you can select the Run Active File option from the ... menu.

Manual Proccess:

To set up your system to use the build script:

  • Open Windows PowerShell as Administrator and execute set-executionpolicy remotesigned
  • In the future, always use PowerShell as Admin

Windows

If on Windows, you can use the tools\make.ps1 file to build the mod for you. It will build the mod, sign the addons, include the public key in the keys folder, and also copy across all files found in the extras folder, as well as the files specified in the file tools\support-files.txt.

The build script will NOT leave the private key in the keys folder. It will delete it instead, to avoid any accidental uploading or distribution.

Be aware, that the names of the .bisign and .bikey files depend on the latest tag on git. This means that, if you wish to upload a release, it is advised to first tag the latest git commit, and then build the mod. That way you have a nice version, such as bnb_es_v1.0.3.bikey rather than bnb_es_v1.0.3-g0558b0c.bikey.

Naming conventions

To make the names of this mod less likely to run into problems in the future regarding the inclusion of a number in the name:

  • for code: bnb_es
  • for urls: 2bnb-essentials
  • for presentation: 2BNB Essentials

Prefixes

The prefix bnb_es_ should be used where appropriate to avoid any potential name clashes with other mods.
