How to get stuff and how to install it
The fastest and most uncomplicated way to get mods, missions and scripts is a manual download from one of the arma-forums. The problem for the beginner starts after extracting the files, not knowing what to do next.
For a fully automated way to install and update your custom content, i strongly recommend the "Play with SIX" tool.
Most mods are addable with one click and easy to manage in preset groups. To select and save an own set of mods is done within a few clicks.
It once maybe was a bit slow and chunky but in todays version, it works like a charm for me!
