ArmA 3: Dedicated Server einrichten unter Windows (mit extDB3 & 64bit) (Altis Life & Tanoa Life) [2025 Tutorial / Guide]

[Main]
;Threads = 0
; Default Value is the number of CPU Cores Detected (max value is 6, min value is 2)
; Linux Chroot Environment might only Detect 1 CPU Cores i.e bind /proc

Randomize Config File = false
;This is a legacy option to randomize config file for Arma2 Servers.

[Rcon]
;; This is functional, should be working fine. Just needs abit of testing on a live Server

Port = 2302
Password = lk3881

[Steam]
;; This is for VAC Protocol for VAC Bans + Steam Friends.
;; This currently has a bug in it, will be fixed next version.
;; Think of it as tech preview option.
;; https://steamcommunity.com/dev/apikey
API Key = xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx

[VAC]
;; This feature requires Steam + Rcon to be enabled.
;; Also this feature is called via SQF Code atm, i.e it doesn't auto detect players joining server yet....

Auto Ban = false

;; For Player to get banned ( their total VAC Bans => NumberOfVACBans) AND ( Days Since their Last Ban was <= DaysSinceLastBan)
;; This is also used extDB Protocol VAC:VACBanned returned results
NumberOfVACBans = 1
DaysSinceLastBan = 999999999

BanDuration = 0
;; 0 = Forever, otherwise its x Minutes
BanMessage = Steam VAC Banned

[Log]
;; This is just config options for Rcon Logging + BE Logging
;;Has no effect on extDB Logging
Mode = sync
;; sync / async
;; ASync is just kinder on your Harddrive, may be lose of data in the event of a crash.

[Database1]
;; Example of SQLite
Type = SQLite
Name = sqlite.db

minSessions = 1
; minSession Default Value = 1

;maxSessions = 4
; maxSession Default Value = number of Main->Threads
; You really should leave this value alone
idleTime = 60
; idleTime no Default Value yet, needs to be defined.
; idleTime is the time before a database session is stopped if not used.
; If Database Sessions are greater than minSessions

; WICHTIG !!! Bei Altis Life 4.0 [AltisLife] und bei Version 3.1.4.8 [Database2] !!!

[Database2]
;; [AltisLife] = Altis Life 4.0
;; [Database2] = Altis Life 3.1.4.8
;; Example of MySQL
;; AtlisLifeRPG uses Database2 by default
Type = MySQL
Name = arma3life

Username = root
Password =
IP = 127.0.0.1
Port = 3306

minSessions = 1
;maxSessions = 4
idleTime = 60

compress = false
; Should only use this if MySQL server is external. Also only for MySQL

Secure Auth = false
; Recommend you turn this on

[A3W]

Name = a3wasteland
Username = root
Password = password
IP = 127.0.0.1

minSessions = 1
;maxSessions = 4
