How to set up on dedicated server?

Meldgaard

I use HostHavoc, which means it's virtual.
How do I set up this Creator DLC to let us play missions (and in the future: Antistasi)? I can't find any documentation on how to do this.

Antistasi is not out at this moment.

In the future I hope the Antistasi team will release the server files. I have just checked and they are not out yet: https://github.com/official-antistasi-community/A3-Antistasi/releases

You can find the Antistasi setup guide here: https://a3antistasi.enjin.com/mobile/forum/viewthread/m/38173738/id/30812843-dedicated-server-guide.

Your server host must be able to install the DLC. My provider was not ready yet.

Once they can do this then all you need is a mission file. That I cannot find either. I wanted to setup a Mike Force Dedicated server but it is impossible at the moment.

To install CDLC content on your Arma 3 server you must use the creatordlc branch. This includes both GM and VN. This is something maybe HostHavoc must do for you, I suggest you reach out to their support.

To run the DLC on a dedicated server the following information is available:

Do server admins need to own Creator DLC if they want to host a dedicated server that makes use of their premium content?

No, the free stand-alone Arma 3 Server tool app with a shrunk dataset will be available to server admins whether they own a particular Creator DLC or not (this may involve using Steam branches for that app).

You have to enter the following in to steamCMD:

app_update 233780 -beta creatordlc validate

If you have more questions about this please let us know and I'll have someone a bit more tech savvy than me reply on it!

I also use Host Havoc and the way we got it set up to work with our zeus missions is by clicking "Update to CreatorDLC Build" on the side panel, then under mods for your command line add "vn" in as a "mod".

Host Havoc have provided this guide to setting up the DLC on their servers: https://hosthavoc.com/billing/knowledgebase/273/How-to-install-S.O.G.-Prairie-Fire-DLC.html

Looks like setting up Creator DLC can be a bit of a maze! If your provider isn’t ready, maybe it’s time to explore dedicated server hosting options that are more flexible—like HostNoc, which can handle custom setups. For Antistasi, fingers crossed the team drops those server files soon. Until then, it’s all about waiting, tweaking, and maybe a bit of trial and error.
