Difficulty Menu

The 1.58 update brought a lot of changes to the difficulty system. List of the most significant ones can be found on Arma 3 Difficulty Overhaul page. There's a related thread on the forums where the changes can be discussed.


Difficulty Presets

One of the main changes that came with 1.58 is, that the difficulty levels were transformed to true presets. Each preset has exactly defined value for each difficulty option. If any of the options doesn't match the preset, it is changed to Custom. The following table shows comparison of the presets. Options that have fade out set can be faded in via the J key.

Config Parameter Name in Game Recruit Regular Veteran Note

groupIndicators Group Indicators show limited distance hide Shows indication icons on units in player's group.

Configuration

Please note, that the following information applies to the config in game's data (namely data_f.pbo) not to the profile. For profile related information please refer to this page. Since Arma 3 1.58 the game's config uses CfgDifficultyPresets class. The former CfgDifficulties is now obsolete and was left in the config only not to break scripts that might have used it.
