Escape | Chernarus 2035 [WIP]

Description
Description:
Isolated and cut-off from their commands, operators from two rival PMCs compete for weapons and equipment in a bid to survive and extract from no-man's land in war-torn Chernarus.

This is a singleplayer scenario heavily inspired by Battlestate Games' hardcore shooter "Escape From Tarkov". The player is tasked with conducting raids in several strategic locations across a devastated Chernarus in a bid to secure the weapons and equipment neccessary to survive in this unforgiving wasteland.

Multiplayer:
The cooperative version of Escape from Chernarus is now live on my Workshop: https://steamhost.cn/steamcommunity_com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=1771382034
That version is HEAVILY BUGGED and also remains a work-in-progress.

Features:
- This scenario remains a Work-In-Progress, thus various features are still subject to change. If you have any bugs to report or recommendations, please tell me in the discussion box.
- A total of 18 different raid locations (with 3 more on the way)
- Engage in brutal 3-faction warfare with challenging AI opponents.
- Safehouse to manage stored equipment or purchase/sell weapons & items from the trader.
- Employ a wide selection of quality and high-fidelity firearms from the fantastic RHS and NI Arms mod collections.

Disclaimer:
This scenario and the author are in no way affiliated with Battlestate Games or any of their products. The scenario may not be commercialised in any way and it's use is prohibited on monetized servers, it is simply meant to be played and enjoyed.

I have been developing this mission on and off for over a year, and during that time the format of both this scenario and 'Escape from Tarkov', the game on which it is based, have evolved dramatically from where they started. Because of this, like the actual game, it's eventual completion and release always gets pushed back. Thus I wanted to release the mission in it's current state in the hopes that the ArmA community will enjoy playing it, provide helpful feedback and even continue to develop the mission framework. This scenario is open source, so feel free to modify and re-release it however you please.

As this scenario remains a Work-In-Progress, there are still a few missing features:
- An EFT-style tasks & levelling system.
- Although the scenario is singleplayer, you are required to host and play on a LAN server for the respawn and finances to work properly.
- Bug Fixes

Known Issues & Fixes:
If you are experiencing issues with loading saved games or the missing 'A3_Character_f.pbo' error, please follow the advice below (big thanks to a Goblin):

"I found out how to fix the "missing A3_character_f" error, its an issue with all of the optional Escape from Tarkov equipment mods themselves, so any saves that use those mods will get corrupted.

As for the saving issue you can fix it like this: Go to the following directory 'Documents/Arma 3 - Other Profiles/[your profile]/saved/steam/', then go into the Escape from Chernarus scenario and save a copy of the 'continue.Arma3save' file, then paste it somewhere safe but rename it to 'save.Arma3Save' so you will always have a backup file.

If your save gets erased/bugged then just rename the backup 'save.Arma3Save' to 'continue.Arma3Save' and paste it into the aforementioned Escape from Chernarus folder in your Documents directory.

how do I fix the saves?

Nice scenario.

@Padre
This mission doesn't contain any scripts or functions which edit damage output, so it could be due to the fact that weapons/ammunition from different mods have inconsistent damage models, or possibly that the AI in question killed you with a headshot.
Siyah Qalam 28 May, 2021 @ 5:06pm 
Something is causing problems with your damage models in this mission. Unarmored USEC guy just took 5 7.62x39 bullets to bring down while he punched through all my armor with 1 pistol bullet. Can't play the game if it's going to be balanced like this.

@lord-yo without using mods you cannot place lootable items unless you put them inside a crate, so either look in crates placed around by the map creator Nomad 420, OR just kill ai for loot

@gerebene.gn look in the description in the know issues part, there is a detailed description on how to save your game
VaneTrainFleetofPain 9 May, 2021 @ 1:23pm 
Love the scenario, been playing it for about 3 days now. But I've noticed that on the factory map the big ammo crate explodes after the first raid on the ao. Otherwise everything seems all good
gerebene.gn 22 Apr, 2021 @ 3:07pm 
ok ok, thanks, also, in the map stary sobor there are a few houses that you cant go in, but if yo use the thing to go trough obstacles you get trapped inside and recibe damange

@gerebene.gn
I think this version has a respawn script, which should work when you die when starting it via Scenarios. Otherwise if you just run this mission via a LAN server, you should be able to respawn normally like in other multiplayer missions.

@lord-yo
The loot isn't spawned dynamically on the ground (this caused FPS issues and wouldn't delete properly), but ever map has several types of crates/containers which contain random loot depending on the container type, just like in Escape from Tarkov.
gerebene.gn 21 Apr, 2021 @ 3:16pm 
hello, is there a version for single player? someway that i could die and respawn, not reset the whole mision (sorry for poor grammar, i speack spanish)
