Special Purpose Unit "Vukovi"

Squad.xml and updates!

First of all I would like to welcome our new members Alex and Samuel to the wolfpack! Good to have you guys on board.

Our next point on the agenda brings us to our new squad.xml. For those of you who do not know what that is: The squad.xml is a file stored on a webserver that adds unit information to our profiles in ArmA 3. This allows us to have persistent insignia on vehicles and on our characters right shoulder.

In order to make use of the squad.xml follow this short guide:

1. Open up ArmA 3 and click on your profile in the top right corner of your screen.
   
2. Edit your profile name to the following format: YourProfileName
   
3. Switch to the unit tab and on the drop down menu select custom.
   
4. A long number should pop up in the userID field. Copy this userID and your profile name and send both of them to me via steam. In order for everything to work I need to set up a profile for you on the webserver thats why I need this information.
   
5. Add the following link into the squad url field: http://armasquads.de/user/squads/xml/ms6JnlheESHRe8CpT2U9VsuJSmoavKGi/squad.xml
   
6. Apply all changes, save your profile and exit the profile management. Once I have set up your profile you will be good to go and all effects should appear ingame right away.

The Bear Attacks - Chernarus: The FAC role is now fully implemented and LGB air support run has been fixed. After investigating further into the recent JIP issues, I came to the conclusion that the "stuck in map" issue is related to your individual modlist. Keep on reading for a fix for this issue. All other issues were script based and have been fixed.

Keeping the peace - Khunduz: Tim and myself have been working hard to bring up a new fully dynamic mission that is completely different to the BA mission. It is still WIP, but playable. We would like to play this OP with you guys as soon as possible, so make sure to download all the required mods in the near future that are listed under the next point.

Further ideas: If you guys are interested I will look into hosting a training version of The Bear Attacks on a second machine from my home on a regular basis at scheduled times. So you will be able to hop in, train vehicle and weapon mechanics and mess around with things in an non OP environment.

As I said before, JIP issues are related to the mods you guys have loaded when connecting. So I thought it would be a good idea to make presets in your launchers to minimize the chance to create issues. Because there is no keycheck on the server, which means you can connect with any mod you have loaded.

The Bear Attacks - Chernarus: CBA_A3, RHS: AFRF / GREF / USAF. CUP Terrains ( Maps / Core) and Task Force Arrowhead Radio.

Keeping the peace - Khunduz: CBA_A3, RHS: AFRF / GREF / USAF. CUP Terrains (Maps / Core), CUP Units, CUP Weapons / CUP Vehicles, Khunduz Afghanistan Map and Task Force Arrowhead Radio.

Any individual sound mods you guys are running should not interfere with the server or the OPs and are white listed for individual use.

Thanks for your patience and your enthusiasm. Good times are on the horizon for SPU-Vukovi. I would like to encourage you to go onto the ArmA 3 community page and to start recruiting people that are looking for a new group or any other guys that fit that description.
If you guys are interested we can schedual regular OP times during the week rather than having impulsive OP times.
Feel free to drop any suggestions and ideas in the comments.

Amat victoria curam brothers,
