For our modpack, our mentality is K.I.S.S: Keep It Simple, Stupid. Our modpack is designed to be streamlined, functional, but also flexible in our ability to foster various different types of combat scenarios. You wont find an overly large or fragmented mod list here, and we aim to always keep it this way.
At the same time, we use Swifty as our mod delivery platform. Swifty is the only ArmA3 mod delivery platform that uses "delta patching" which allows us to push small updates to the repository without you having to download or scan the entire modset over again.
Installing the Modpack

2.) Once installed, open swifty and click the wrench icon at the top right.
