For convenience and easy debugging use my free debug_console extension which will automatically launch a console window with your output. It can also write to file. To install drop debug_console.dll into main Arma directory. Examples: "debug_console" callExtension "Default grey"; //default output "debug_console" callExtension "Red line without timestamp #1000"; //red with timestamp "debug_console" callExtension "Yellow line with timestamp #1101"; //yellow without timestamp "debug_console" callExtension "Writing to file ~0001"; //output to file "debug_console" callExtension ""; //empty line "debug_console" callExtension "A"; //beep sound "debug_console" callExtension "C"; //clear console "debug_console" callExtension "X"; //close console Direct Download: http://killzonekid.com/pub/debug_console_v3.0.zip
