Overview
Arma 3 is distributed as several branches on Steam.
These branches are accessible by opening the application Properties in Steam client. In the BETAS tab, you'll find a drop-down menu with publicly available branches. Some branches require an access code to be input before appearing the list. Those codes are shared via channels such as Twitter and the forums when appropriate.
After selecting a branch, Steam client will begin downloading the differences in data. Note that Steam client does not allow you to maintain multiple parallel branches on your hard drive. Our Game Updater tool does allow this for certain branches.
Branches
Arma 3
This application exists for Windows, with experimental port betas for Linux and Mac.
- main branch (primary and default build)
- development branch (Dev-Branch build)
- rc branch (Release Candidate build test of imminent updates - requires access code)
- profiling branch (special performance + profiling build - requires access code: CautionSpecialProfilingAndTestingBranchArma3), alternative download of needed binary possible from Dwarden's dropbox
- legacy branch (old build comparison of the second-last main build - requires access code of pattern: Arma3LegacyXYZ, where XYZ is the version, e.g. 150)
- legacyPorts branch (old build compatibility for Linux / Mac ports - requires access code: Arma3LegacyPorts)
