¶ Workspace manager
You need to have run the game you're modding at least once to allow the workspace manager to find it.
Workspace name |
The name you decide to give this workspace.
Work directory |
The work directory for your modding projects (eg: C:\Armawork).
This path will be used to mount your virtual drive.
Drive letter |
The drive letter that will be mapped to your work directory defined above (eg: C:\ or P:)
Choose between all available drive letters. See the English alphabet for more information on what letters are.
Game |
Choose between 3 supported selections.
- Unknown
- Arma 3
- DayZ
The settings listed below don't show if you selected "Unknown" as a game.
Overwrite game information |
By default, AiO should detect your current game directory.
If you wish to specify another installation, such as the arma 3 development branch, you can specify this here.
- Game directory |
Only visible if you selected the above option. You can enter your custom gamepath here.
Extract game |
Do you want AiO to automatically extract the base game?
-
Extract all missions |
Full extraction including layers, dubbing and missions (base addons only)? -
Improved extraction |
Significantly reduce extraction time by using more system resources. -
Overwrite extraction directory |
By default, AiO will extract the gamefiles to your workspace.
Some users have multiple workspaces that require the same gamefiles. AiO solves this bloat by allowing you to specify a "Game File Library".
This "Game File Library" will be mirrored throughout all projects that make use of it, allowing for a centralised source for multiple workspaces.- Extraction directory |
Only visible if you selected the above option. You can enter your "Game File Library" path here.
