In addition, on the day of the full release of the CDLC, Rotators Collective will publish a compatibility data pack for non-owners to the Arma 3 Steam Workshop. Subscribing to this Workshop item will allow those who do not own Reaction Forces to still play on multiplayer servers that use the assets from the CDLC. Restrictions on in-game use of CDLC assets by non-owners also apply. More information can be found on the Community Wiki.

From the beginning, Arma 3 has always been a true labor of love, both for the Arma Team and for our loyal community of players and creators. The amount of effort that has been put into the vast Arma 3 universe of mods and maps is a testament to how far the passion of a community can take a game. We are humbled by your creativity and enthusiasm, and we would be honored to receive your nomination in the "Labor of Love" category!
We would like to invite our community to create screenshots using this pack of in-game assets. Submissions should at least include the special event logo. It represents the Remembrance Poppy, an international symbol often used for Veterans Days, and the lion from the Czech coat of arms. On Veterans Day (Nov. 11th), we will be creating a collage of the screenshots submitted. The top submissions will receive prizes, as well a special place in our Arma 3 Lars Blanken Gallery (from the Art of War Charity Pack). 🖼️
If you'd like to participate, download the pack from the Steam Workshop, create your screenshot in the Eden Editor, and then submit the image on our forums!
We recommend using this pack in combination with the unofficial ACR_A3 - Army of the Czech Republic mod, which brings various Czech vehicles, uniforms, and other assets to Arma 3.
Please note that the images do not have to necessarily depict the Czech military. You can depict members of your own country of choice – you will just need to feature the special event logo. Obviously, images containing ripped mod or IP-infringing content will not be accepted, and images must be respectful and appropriate to the context and spirit of Veterans Day.
We look forward to your submissions! If you'd like to share your screenshot elsewhere, do be sure to tag it with #Players4Veterans!
