Frequently Asked Questions

Will CWR be recruiting again?

After the demo is released, CWR will be looking for a few more dedicated individuals.

Will other Mods work with CWR?

"Last time I checked 6th Sense tracers & wound fx as well as Maddmatts FX worked like a charm together with CWR." - Mr. Burns

Is CWR creating custom classes for the units (like a normal addon / mod) or is this mod going to replace the default AmrA units.

To achieve maximum compatibility with already created OFP missions the classnames used are exactly the same as in OFP. That means when using the CWR Mod the default ArmA units will be replaced by CWR ones. It also means that your OFP missions will work with little to no changes.

Are you going to modify something regarding the AI/gameplay?

There are no plans in changing gameplay/AI, at least not more than cfg changes at this time.

Will the demo have the mission editor?

Yes.

Is CWR going to be Queens Gambit dependable?

No, CWR should be played without Queens Gambit, however you can use both together, if you want to.
