Uploading a Mission
Uploading a mission file is not difficult. This is done using FTP. We want to upload the mission file to 'armampmissions'. We'll use 'Example.Altis' as our mission name for this article. We would place it into the mpmissions folder, creating this path: 'arma/mpmissions/Example.Altis'.

Where To Find Arma 3 Workshop Files
In order to change the mission to the desired one, you will need to edit server.cfg. This is located in 'arma/config/server.cfg'.
NOTE: The server must be stopped while making edits to this file, or changes will not be saved!
In this configuration file, many settings can be adjusted, including the map the server is currently running. The settings for the map can be found by default at the bottom of this file, and if unedited, should look like:
In general, it follows this pattern:
Where 'template =' is written, should follow the name of your desired mission. For our example, we would have it look like 'template = Example.Altis;'
NOTE: For map names with white spaces, you can either replace the space with '%20', or the whole name can be surrounded by quotation marks.
The following are accepted values for difficulties (unless custom difficulties have been configured):
- recruit
- regular
- veteran
- mercenary
