Hey there- I know most of us are in the clan's various email chains but for posterity's sake, and because hopefully we'll have more people reading these forums eventually, I thought I'd put up the current mod listing for Llama here, with links. Please let me know if any of these links are busted.

First, the files you need to play. Can't get "up ins," as the kids say, without these.

CUP Terrains Core- this's the core files for the maps, as implied by the name. Make sure you have this loaded above the map files in your mod load order- apparently that matters.

CUP Terrains Maps- these're the map files themselves, again implied by the name. They won't work without the core files, listed previously.

RHSAFRF (Armed Forces of the Russian Federation)
https://steamcommunity.com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=843425103

RHSUSAF (United States Armed Forces)
https://steamcommunity.com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=843577117

Remember, you NEED the previous files to play. Can't do without 'em.


That's all you really have to have- but read on for the next category, Shit That's Handy.

Enhanced Movement: climb onto stuff, heave yourself through open windows, etc. Useful. MAY REQUIRE SOME FIDDLING FROM THE GAME'S MAIN MENU TO GET IT TO WORK.

CBA_A3: this allows use of the "KP Player Menu," instead of the default "Extended Options." Honestly, I prefer the "Extended Options," and so leave this disabled- but that's purely a matter of preference. Try them both, see which you like better.

Lastly, Stuff You Don't Need To Play But Maybe You Wanna Test It, Or Something.

All this stuff is server side, and will work even if you don't have it on your own machine. But maybe you wanna test stuff offline, by yourself, or local host for a LAN with your nephew, or whatever? Here're those files.
Again, because it bears repeating- as far as I'm aware, you don't need ANY of these to play, or use their functionality, because they're server side. If you want 'em anyway, for hosting your own game or just testing stuff/dicking around, here they are.

KP Liberation: Chernarus Winter- the current map/mission.
https://steamcommunity.com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=1598002157

Advanced Rappelling- this allows us to descend from helos on ropes, onto high structures or just terrain. (Not from the edges of high structures- that's a different mod [by the same guy] that we aren't planning on using presently.)
https://steamcommunity.com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=713709341

Advanced Sling Loading- (I always write that as a single word for some reason) this increases our options for sling loading, per the name. I don't do much helo flying, so I don't have much to say about this. Ask Dark or Beef what they think, I guess?
https://steamcommunity.com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=615007497

Advanced Towing- look, I didn't read this one, I had laundry to do, but I imagine it's just an expansion of options for towing ground vehicles and whatnot.
https://steamcommunity.com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=639837898

There's other stuff loaded on the server- the RHS GREF and SAF factions, for instance- but as we aren't presently using those, I didn't bother to link them. If that changes, I'll edit this post.

One quick comment:  The mod list that Bullets called as GOTTA HAVE also happen to be mission specific.  IOW, that will change depending upon what mission and map we might be running at the time.  For example, CUP Terrains - Maps 2.0 adds some nifty features that might drive us in that direction instead of the current 1.0 version of that map pack that we're currently using. 

And sooner or later we'll be exploring other maps and other mods and missions.  (I'm still interested in the Hellenic Armed Forces Mod (HAFM) - NAVY, for example.  I can't wait to use a cruise missile launched from a ship or a sub miles offshort to target something.   ;) 8)

The good news is that if you use the server browser in the Arma 3 Launcher, it'll tell you which mods you have to have for whatever mission is playing right now.  Makes it easy to keep your mod list right.

I keep meaning to add a Recommended Mods page to the website.  Gotta get that done at some point.  In the meantime, keep an eye on this thread.
