Setting up the SQM for editing

  1. Download Frontlines.Malden from Github and rename it to Frontlines.xxx where xxx is your desired map (e.g Frontlines.Stratis)
  2. Remove the mission.sqm from inside the folder
  3. Find the missionTemplateVR.sqm inside the SQM folder and place it into your Frontlines folder
  4. Rename this SQM to mission.sqm
  5. Open Arma and open your mission in the editor
  6. You will now have all the default markers for the mission as shown below: 20240225133049_1

Editing the SQM

  1. Move the blufor units, respawn marker and HC marker to the edge of the map (usually the corner)
  2. There are now markers for each type of objective that you can copy and paste to all the locations you would like to be objectives (you can use these starting default markers also)
  3. Rename all city, town, military and factory objectives to the name you would like them to have (such as the city name), radio tower objectives will be renamed automatically
  4. Delete any leftover objective markers that you don't want to use
  5. (optional) If you would like to have a specific location for the first FOB to be created (normally randomly generated), create an 'Empty' marker and name it 'manualFobMarker'
