Requires the latest version of CBA.

ArmaForces Medical is a collaborative effort by the members of ArmaForces, polish Arma 3 community.

Main purpose of this addon is to bend and adjust ACE Medical to the group gameplay needs and style.

The mod is on the same foundation as the ACE3 mod, using its framework, systems, tools and standards. It is entirely open-source and licensed under the GNU General Public License (GPLv2).

Huge appreciation and thanks to ACE3 Team for their open-source nature and permission to use their systems.
