This Guide is based on a clean provision of our Arma 3 Server.

Although our mod manager will install all the files required for a vanilla setup of Arma3Life, there is some extra configuration required.

Step one (Install Mod Files):

Within your control panel, select tools from the menu and go to Mod Manager. Click the Install button next to the "Altis Life 5.0" and allow the files to be installed. (Do not worry if when the mod is finished, it still says "install" (this is a known bug).

Step Two (Set up database):

Within your control panel, select Management from the menu and go to Databases. Click the "Create" Button.

HOST: choose BanterUsers from the dropdown box.

NAME: arma3life (for the purposes of this guide we will use this, but you can choose anything)

CONNECTIONS FROM: %

Then click submit Once this is complete, we will then make some changes to our altislife.sql before we import it into the database.

Download altislife.sql from the framework: https://github.com/AsYetUntitled/Framework/blob/v5.X.X/altislife.sql

Once downloaded, edit this file using notepad++ or any text editor of your choosing:

Delete the following line:

CREATE DATABASE IF NOT EXISTS `altislife` DEFAULT CHARACTER SET utf8mb4;

Change

USE `altislife`;

to

USE `your database name`;

Delete the following lines (which are located towards the bottom of the file).

CREATE USER IF NOT EXISTS `arma3`@`localhost` IDENTIFIED BY 'changeme';

GRANT SELECT, UPDATE, INSERT, EXECUTE ON `altislife`.* TO 'arma3'@'localhost';

FLUSH PRIVILEGES;

Save and close the file.

Next, open a new browser window and navigate to: https://phpmyadmin.mybanterserver.co.uk/ and log in using your database username and password.

Select "Import" from the top menu, click Choose File and select your altislife.sql and click Go! This should install all your tables. You can now exit phpmyadmin.

Step Three

Go to the Management menu and choose File Manager.

Navigate to the @extdb3 directory and the click on the file extdb3-conf.ini to edit:

Change the following:

[Database] IP = 127.0.0.1

Port = 3306

Username = changeme

Password = changeme

Database = changeme

to:

[altislife]

IP = your server ip

Port = 3306

Username = your database username

Password = your database password

Database = your database name

Step Four

In this last step, we will tell your server what mods we have installed and ask the server to load the mission upon startup.

From the configuration menu, choose "Startup Parameters" In the "Extra Startup Parameters" box we are going to change this to -autoInit -nosound like this:

Next edit the server-side only mods sections, and add the mods: @extdb3\;@life_server\;

Now start your server and you should be good to go! For information on how to customise your new server - please look: https://github.com/AsYetUntitled/Framework/wiki
