April 2020 Modpack

After many weeks of hard work, it's here! The latest iteration of our Arma modpack. This modpack is the result of a new process with a Mod Testing Team, and I thank all who contributed for their hard work during the process. For the mods themselves, we have had a large cycle of maps in and out, hopefully these will bring a fresh spin to our missions!

This new modset will be live on FK1 from Monday, the 27th of April. Updates to various internal mods and changes to the servers will happen at some point after main the previous day, and before next main.

These updates include two major changes to our modset and play. I'm sure most of you will have heard of the new ACE medical rewrite update, and this will now be live with the modset change. Please read the documentation and posts by the medical trainers on this matter, they are very important!

Additionally, we will be replacing a core mod to our Zeus tools for many years, Achilles. This will be replaced by Zeus Enhanced, a more refined mod that does much of the same, and better in many cases. For end users it is largely similar, but differences and nuances might prove for some small teething issues in the short term, so be patient with Zeuses. Changes include (but are not limited to) a new right click context menu for various tasks, image previews for objects like in the editor, and many customisation options to suit your preferences!

Below you will find a full list of what's come and gone, but the important parts are next: Mod Presets!

MOD PRESET + INSTALLATION
The simplest way to get the new modset ready will be to import our new official FK Modset April 2020 HTML file. Instructions on how to do this can be found here.

SECOND SERVER
Because FK Mods and FK ACE are still being used for main missions until release date, if you want try out the new mods on the second server in the meantime you will need to use the FK 2 PRERELEASE Week Preset. Please only use this preset for the coming week until release on FK1.
