Task Force Arrowhead Radio is the plugin for Arma 3 that adds radio functionality, much like SRS.

Our teamspeak is set up so that you can only talk there if your TFAR is working, and you are connected to the game. Otherwise you are muted. For a very basic setup guide:


Steam Workshop link for TFAR: https://steamcommunity.com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=894678801 And CBA_A3. https://steamcommunity.com/workshop/filedetails/?id=450814997

Teamspeak download: https://www.teamspeak.com/en/downloads/

Arma

  1. Subscribe to Task Force Radio and CBA_A3. You need both. Wait for it to download and install.
  2. Enable 'show hidden files' in Windows Explorer [support.microsoft.com]
  3. Install the TeamSpeak plugin by navigating to your Arma install directory, entering the Steam file path. Instead of Common and Steamapps, go to to your Steam folder. Check in Workshop\@task_force_radio\teamspeak directory and running: task_force_radio_3.1Compat (for TeamSpeak 3.1x or higher)


  1. Start/restart TeamSpeak, and connect to your group's TeamSpeak server using the IP address provided by the server host. For our Air Goon Arma, it is: airgoonstfar.ts.nfoservers.com
  2. Start/restart Arma 3 with the task_force_radio and CBA_A3 mods activated. If you join Air Goons server through launcher, it will ask automatically.
  3. Now that TS is running, you are on a TS channel that is muted. That is fine. Once you enter a game in Arma, you should be moved automatically to the TaskForceRadio Channel in the TeamSpeak server.
  4. You should then be able to hear players who are close to you. Learn how to use the radio.

How it works in-game

Your teamspeak Push to Talk key is your 3d audio, in other words: talking around you. It should be something else than capslock. Basic functionality is to use the caps lock to speak on your short range radio, and ctrl+caps lock to speak on your long range radio and vehicle radio.
