How to Install
Autoinstall
The best and fastest way is the auto-install version. This doesn't all the time work but here is a guide on how it should be done Automatic installation
Download and install Arma3
Download and install TeamSpeak3
Open TeamSpeak3 and test that it works.
Close down TeamSpeak3 and make sure it is not running in the background. (Use Taskmanager to kill TS3).
Download and import the mod pack.
Then when TS3, Arma3, and the mod pack are installed. Then start up the game.
If the ACRE2 plugin was successfully installed then a window will show up saying it was installed into TS3. If it didn't install correctly an error message will pop up.
When the game has started and you can see the main menu in the game then you can open up TS3. Then go to Tools > Options > Addons. And then make sure ACRE2 is enabled.
TADA done.

Common Problems
Q: I can't hear people that are not in-game. A: This is, in fact, a feature of ACRE2. Anyone not in your game is muted for you.
Q: I don't have an ACRE2 plugin on TeamSpeak. A: You have to move the ACE2 plugins from C:\Users\YOURUSERNAME\Documents\Arma 3@ACRE2\plugin into your Teamspeak plugins folder.
Q: I re-jipped and no one can hear me. A: Restart Teamspeak. When you die ACRE2 puts you in dead chat after you respawn TS3 still considers you in dead chat so you're muted for alive players.
Q: I get a message in-game saying ACRE2 server and client version do not match. A: You must update your ACRE2 plugin files, this is caused by ACRE2 updating. Do the same procedure as the question above this one but make sure Teamspeak is closed or the files will not overwrite.
Q: My direct chat works but no one can hear me over the radio. A: Use voice activation detection in Teamspeak and/or do not use the push to talk delay feature in Teamspeak.
Q: I use TeamSpeak in admin and am still having issues. A: Try running TeamSpeak, not in admin mode. If you run Arma 3 in non-admin mode TS3 must also be run in the same way.
Q: I can't activate the ACRE2 plugin in TeamSpeak (it's either red or an error when activating). A: Remove the x64 bit ACRE2 plugin and just use the x32 bit one. This is caused by you using the x32 bit version of TS3.
Q: No one can hear me but I can hear them in ACRE2 just fine (non-jip related). A: Alt-Tab out to TeamSpeak. Go to Options > Plugins, then right-click ACRE2 and press reload. That should fix it the issue. If it does not: If you use a push to talk in Teamspeak go to Settings>Options>Capture check off advanced options and UNCHECK delay releasing push to talk.
Q: I tried all of the above and am still having problems! A: Try installing ACRE2 manually. Also double-check that you've tried all the above fixes correctly and that ACRE2 is actually being run as a mod. Contact Fosse if you're still having issues.
