Arma Reforger | How to add custom workshop scenarios

Important:

One thing to note is that currently there is no mission rotation like ARMA3, you must therefore switch between missions manually by editing the configuration file.

Stage 1 - Finding the Mod IDs, name, version and scenario (game) ID

1. Startup the game
   
   
2. Click "Workshop"
   
   
3. Download all the missions/scenarios you want to use on your server.
   
   
4. Navigate to game files on your PC, default location is: %USERPROFILE%\Documents\My Games\ArmaReforger
\addons

   In my case, it is: C:\Users\JacobBubeer\Documents\My Games\ArmaReforger\addons\



5. Each folder is named by the mod ID, but to determine which mod corresponds to which mod ID you'll need to open the ServerData.json file inside the folder, it'll look something like this:
   
   

   {
       "id": "596338F447D34E39",
       "name": "NightOps - Everon 1985",
       "revision": {
           "version": "1.0.26",
           "dependencies": [],
           "scenarios": [
               {
                   "name": "MSSION 1 - Flashpoint 1985",
                   "gameId": "{1C7C31ACBB314DCF}Missions/MissionHeader_1.conf"
               }
           ],
           "downloaded": true
       }
   }

    

   From that you can derive the mod ID "596338F447D34E39" , the mod name "NightOps - Everon 1985", version "1.0.26" and scenario (game) ID "{1C7C31ACBB314DCF}Missions/MissionHeader_1.conf"
   
   
   

6. Make note of all this information as we will need it in stage 2 (I recommend copying all the information into a text file you keep safe somewhere on your PC)
   

Stage 2 - Adding the mission/scenario mods to the server

1. Stop your server.
   
   
2. Click "Configuration Files"
   
   
3. Click "Text-Editor" next to "config.json"
   
   
4. Find the section:
   
   

   "mods": []​

    

5. Modify it as follows:
   
   

   "mods":[
      {
         "modId":"596338F447D34E39",
         "name":"NightOps - Everon 1985",
         "version":"1.0.26"
      },
      {
         "modId": "59655E11FDD04B97",
         "name": "Raid on Saint Pierre",
         "version": "1.0.49"
      }
       ]

    

6. Find the line:
   
   

   "scenarioId": "{ECC61978EDCC2B5A}Missions/23_Campaign.conf",

    

   
   Edit it to contain the scenario (game) ID of the mission/scenario you want your server to use:
   
   

   "scenarioId": "{1C7C31ACBB314DCF}Missions/MissionHeader_1.conf",

    

7. Save the file in the top left and startup your server.
   
   
8. Enjoy the modded scenario!
