ShackTac Fireteam HUD for Arma 3

The ShackTac Fireteam HUD has been ported over to Arma 3, whee! This mod requires the CBA modset, which can be read about here (it is automatically installed when loading STHUD via PwS).

Watch the video for an example of how this mod functions.

You can read about the STHUD’s Arma2 version, which is functionally the same, here.

STHUD is part of the STUI compilation – download information can be found here.

If you run into issues with it, please post them to our tracker, here.

    I’ve got PlayWithSix, Latest CBA_A3, but i cant seem to find ST Hud anywhere in the mod section of ArmA 3 on PlayWithSix. Any suggestion? I’ve got the @CBA_A3 in my steam folder, not my documents.

    Same here. I found that if you start play with six, then go to this site, go to the download section for this mod, then install the mod using playwithsix, you’ll find it to show up on the playwithsix mod section. then you can install it using playwithsix, and use it.

    Playwithsix is not “holding” or finding mods on my install for some reason.

    Hello,
    when A3 is launching addons an error message pops out saying: Addon ‘ST_FTHud’ requires addon ‘CACharacters’. I can’t seem to find the latter anywhere. What can I do?

    1. Are you sure you downloaded the Arma 3 version of it?

        That was it. I though I needed to dl everything so I was just overwriting everything… Works perfectly now. Really good addon! Thanks for the help.

          The problem is, it doesn’t work on multi player. It says sthud.pbo is not signed by a key accepted on this server and it auto kicks me.

            A server has to accept a mod’s signature for it to work. That’s not a problem of the mod, it’s a problem with the server you’re trying to use it on.

    I can’t seem to get this to work in multiplayer. =/ Do I need to do something special to get it to work in multiplayer? I’m fairly new to the ArmA scene (only having about 20 hours in ArmA 2) and this is my first attempt at installing mods.

    1. Server must allow the mod, and you must be in a group of more than one person for it to appear.

        Ahh. The servers may not allow it. That makes perfect sense. Thanks. 🙂

    Will it be in the future versions of Arma 3, or will it stay as a mod?

    I’ve installed the mod and all works great in the single-player showcases, but I don’t know how to host my server with the mod enabled.

    I’ve tried just running the server with the mod activated but it doesn’t show, and friends can’t even begin to play when the server starts. Any suggestions?

    What folder do i put this in? I followed the instructions on armaholic for CBA_A3, but haven’t got sthud to work yet?
    BTW, thanks dslyecxi for all the videos, as a noob to Arma they have been very helpful. Keep them coming!

    I noticed it doesn’t handle extremely long names very well. Instead of cutting it off, it pushes the marker and the name to separate lines, meaning that the 6th team member will be offscreen.

    Hey Dslyecxi, your videos and mods are really helpful for mid tier players trying to improve themselves to be on par with Shack Tac members. Quality AND quantity is second to none. Keep them coming!
