http://www.ahoyworld.co.uk/topic/4846-acre-topic-thread/
http://www.ahoyworld.co.uk/topic/4074-how-to-ace3-medic/

-Open Ts3 and Arma 3 (as admin).
-Join EU3 in a basic kit like Rifleman or Assistant rifleman.

Windows key + Control opens the interactions menu.
Use the earplugs when there is chopper noise.

Control+Alt+Caps brings up the Radio.
On the top of your radio u will see the Antenna on the left, the radio channel button in the middle and the volume control on the right.
Use Left and Right mouse buttons to switch between channels and volume.
You should be on your squads channel by default.
If not , open up your map and zoom out.
You will see the channels for each squad marked there.
 
Use the Radio (Arma 3 VoN feature , CAPS LOCK) to communicate with your team.
Use the TS3 Button for Direct communication aka those who are nearby.
If i am not mistaken voice will fade out the more away you get from your mates.
Hills,trees,valleys etc will affect the Radio Signal and your Voice volume.
When people die or are out of hearing range, they get muted .

Keep in mind that  TS3 Push to Talk  button and Arma 3 one should be different.Arma 3 default key is CAPS LOCK.

Escape -> configure -> controls and on almost bottom right u will see an option saying "configure addons".
This is where your mods keybindings are located.

In the middle bottom of your screen u will  see a new interface.
Thats the ShackTac.There u can see your squad mates in relation to you.
Each circle represents a different distance.Look this out.
Oh and the one shown there with the diagonal line is your Squad Leader.

Thats all i can think for now.
At some point i will update it with more info on map reading etc.
Feel free to post more tips - instructions in the comments and i will update the post.


Edit 1: Added a few info about ACRE the Radio addon

To clarify, we don't use Arma's voice communication at all. All we do using voice is through Teamspeak.
1. I prefer Arma3Sync
2. When people die or are out of hearing range, they get muted - That's how ACRE works.
3. Same as 2.
4. 1 for Command, 2 for Alpha, 3 for Bravo, and so on. It's on the top left of the map on most maps.
5. Your Teamspeak's push to talk button is for local chat, meaning no radios involved. Your ACRE push to talk buttons is for radio communication. Where you use each one requires a more lengthy explanation, but basically use local chat (TS button) for almost everything. You can learn how a player should use the radio by listening in, or just ask around what the radio protocols are.
6. You should never use typed chat unless for something very important. You can speak to people next to you through voice using your teamspeak push to talk, as explained above.
7. If you're in a chopper, you use local chat, as explained previously. As a member of Alpha, you shouldn't have radio comms with the pilot unless you're the Squad Leader.
8. You and your fireteam are the small circles with arrows on the map. The square with your team's name is usually centered around your team leader - who is the circle with the diagonal slash. I was also confused at how it worked at first, but you get used to it fast, don't worry too much.
9. That's happening because you don't have ACRE on. If that happens, and you do have ACRE on, you should reload it (Teamspeak -> Settings -> Plugins -> Reload All). Make sure you run Arma 3 and TS as an administrator. Once in game, and with ACRE properly working, you should see everyone not around you muted, as ACRE works on a 3D positioning basis, so you can only hear people near you, or speaking on a radio in range of yours.
Hopefully that clears up something, if you have more questions just ask.
