Arma 3 | How to install InfiStar for Exile

Here is a step-by-step guide on how to install infiSTAR for Arma 3:

  1. Download the infiSTAR zip file and extract it to your desktop.
  2. Locate the folder named infiSTAR.de_Exile\SERVER_ARMA3_FOLDER\@infiSTAR_Exile\addons\a3_infiSTAR_Exile.
  3. Open the file called EXILE_AHAT_CONFIG.hpp in a text editor.
  4. Set the value of serverCommandPassword to the serverCommandPassword specified in your server's server.cfg file.
  5. Add the User IDs (UIDs) of your admin accounts to the appropriate configuration sections.
  6. Adjust all other settings according to your preferences and server requirements.
note

It is crucial to carefully review and configure all settings to ensure they are accurately set for your server.

  1. Navigate to the folder infiSTAR.de_Exile\SERVER_ARMA3_FOLDER\@infiSTAR_Exile\addons.
  2. Rename the folder a3_infiSTAR_Exile (the one containing the modified EXILE_AHAT_CONFIG.hpp file) to a3_infiSTAR_Exile.pbo. This step converts the folder into a PBO file format.
tip

To convert the folder into a PBO file, you can use a PBO tool like PBO Manager, which can be downloaded from here.

  1. Access your game panel and open the File Manager.
  2. Upload the entire @infiSTAR_Exile folder (excluding the .dll files) to the root directory of your Arma 3 server.
  3. Open the Commandline Manager.
  4. Create a new commandline or modify an existing one, then add @infiSTAR_Exile to the serverMod section of the commandline.
  5. Go to the folder infiSTAR.de_Exile\MPMission.
  6. Move all the files from this folder into your currently used MPMission folder.
  7. Open the description.ext file in your MPMission folder using a text editor.
  8. Locate the line class CfgRemoteExec {}; (which may contain additional content within the curly brackets) and remove it.
  9. Add the following lines to the description.ext file:
#include "CfgRemoteExec.hpp"
#include "infiSTAR_defines.hpp"
#include "infiSTAR_AdminMenu.hpp"
#include "infiSTAR_chat.hpp"
#include "infiSTAR_KeyBinds.hpp"
  1. Access the @infiSTAR_Exile folder again.
  2. Upload the .dll files to the root directory of your Arma 3 server.
  3. Copy the BattleyeFilters folder from infiSTAR.de_Exile\BattleEye and paste it into your server's Battleye folder.
tip

Ensure that you copy the BattleyeFilters folder to the correct location. (Note: This is also the folder where you will find FILTERNAME.log files generated by Battleye.)
