Town 01 worked really well due to the howling winds rustling through trees, and what sounds like the sea in places. It fit the ambience of the island perfectly. That video brings back great memories.

Hey, Tried joining the server through the A3Launcher using the password, in addition to trying the Arma 3 in-game server browser, and I'm getting the following error. All mods have been disabled on launch. I tried just launching with Exile and Namalsk...and it still kicks me off. Also verified Exile via the A3Launcher to make sure files were up to date. Any help gratefully appreciated in order to participate in the feedback.

I can't see any/most servers hosting 100 people at launch. You're all right when you say Namalsk is too small for that number (PvP would be great for some, but terrible for survival stories) I imagine it's set at that simply to stress the server – the devs need as much data as possible.

Here are the steps: 1 - Download both files (Exile 0.9.6 RC2 and Namalsk Test Version) from the following link: http://exile.majormittens.co.uk/topic/11364-exile-096-rc-download-server-info/ 2 - Extract both zip files into your Arma 3 folder (Steam>steamapps>common). The same as you would do for any manually downloaded mod. You need the newer Exile mod from the above download link to overwrite the old version. Save the old @Exile mod folder if you want for safe keeping. 3 - Launch Arma 3 from Steam and in the window that pops up (with the bright yellow Play button), click Parameters. 4 - Where it says command line parameters, enter the following: -mod=@Exile;@Namalsk <------------This is especially important if, like me and many others, you have a ton of Arma 3 mods. You're telling Arma 3 to load the game with Exile and Namalsk only. 5 - Jump onto the Arma 3 multiplayer server browser (Play>Multiplayer). Click on Remote (bottom right), then enter the details provided by the Exile development team. Address: join.exile.majormittens.co.uk and Port: 2302 6 - Double click the passworded Namalsk server that appears, enter the password and it should work if you've followed the steps correctly and I haven't forgotten anything (I'm a little tired).

Feel free to delete this thread. I sorted it easily in the end. It's been a long night and was one of those days when I wasn't thinking properly. Argh!

Okay, update. The Exile 0.9.6 RC2 download removes the above 'keys error' (overlooked that folder), however when I enter the password and try to connect, I just get booted back to the server browser, via the Virtual Reality screen, with no error messages. Tried launching Arma with and without @Exile and @Namalsk loaded, but same problems. Edit: My RPT file from AppData/Local/Arma 3 shows the following (added a snippet) - 22:19:57 SimulWeather - Cloud Renderer - noise texture file is not specified! 22:20:13 Missing addons detected: 22:20:13 namalsk 22:20:16 Starting mission: 22:20:16 Mission file: ExileIntro 22:20:16 Mission world: VR Namalsk has been added to my Arma 3 directory, so not sure what the error is telling me.
