CBA v0.1.0: First public release



Vision

What does the name Community Base Addons mean? It is a system that:
  • Aims to have community wide acceptance and to be used as much as possible by community addons to maintain compatibility.
  • Offers a range of features for addon-makers and mission designers.
  • The community is very much encouraged to request or submit functionality.
    • The most obvious example would be to submit functions to be included in the CBA function library. This would make them available to a large audience of developers and save on replicated development.
Key Features
  • Extended Eventhandlers: official port of XEH for Arma 2.
  • Function library: Integrated into the BIS Functions module.
  • Many other things you never thought you needed but won't be able to live without...
  • Full documentation is available at DevHeaven.
The manual, functions reference and complete sources are included in the release.

DownloadPlease take a look at our function documentation: generic wiki and comprehensive html docs for usage.

What about something along the lines of JAM for OFP? Haven't checked the full list of ArmA2 magazines classes, but I'm sure there'll be some which aren't present people will want to use...

...there must be! ohnoo.gif

Good suggestion, but may fall outside of the scope of CBA, which is more targeted towards functions and libraries to allow access to, or enhance the more advanced features of Arma 2.

We do have some ideas about unified classes for the Community Base Projects at Dev Heaven, which is growing rapidly, and a JAM like "all magazine classes" could fit very well in there.

Please feel free to make suggestions or submit content. We would like this to become widely accepted and open to all in the modding community for both use, and contribution.
