Documentation Sources for Arma 3 Modding
As you've probably noticed, there is no comprehensive resource for Arma 3 modding. Finding reliable information requires a lot of Google-searching, reading forum threads, backtracking through potentially obsolete tutorials from previous versions of Arma, etc. It is very frustrating. In an attempt to ease your path to finding reliable information, here is a list of links to some key resources on the web. This list currently includes (semi-)official documentation-type resources rather than links to forum threads and the like. You'll have to do those searches on your own and hope for the best.
NOTE! For some reason, some VBS document links don't work properly. If you get a URL error from the links below, this is probably the reason. Strip off the last section of the URL and enter the words in the page's "Search" window (usu. in the upper right of the root VBS doc page).
