This may be a new feature in 0.3.7 as I did not see it in 0.3.5.

It looks like there is a check on the mission startup for any heavy armor on the map. If present, the message shows. I did not see the message for a while after a database wipe. Now it's back.

When I see the message, I press [ESC] + [`] + [`] and then it goes away. There's gotta be a mission setting for this but because RHS http://doc.rhsmods.org/is offline there is no way to find out.

I also noticed that on server restart all RHS armor is fully repaired. Must be another "feature".

Try loading the image from \q\addons\snazzy_little_script\ instead

Check the other thread about custom images in the spawn box. There's gotta be a way to display images stored server-side

Hi All,

I'm using the latest RHS Escalation mod on my server and I get a message every time my client connects saying that I need to disable Extended Armor in Game Difficulty settings otherwise tanks are indestructible. I'm not using tanks on my server but once in a while I enjoy a ride on BTR-70.

Anyways, I cannot get the annoying message to go away even though I disabled Extended Armor under every Difficulty profile as per this message http://forums.bistudio.com/showthread.php?184842-RHS-Escalation-(AFRF-and-USAF)-Release-0-3-7-(UPDATED)&p=2854470&viewfull=1#post2854470

I also added:

//check if "Enhanced Armor" is enabled

hint str(difficultyEnabled "armor");

into my mission file and I see "true" every time I log in. Seems like something is changing "Extended Armor" setting to Enabled when my Epoch client loads.

Any idea what this may be?

Sometimes vehicles explode by itself, sometimes only when you enter them. Sometimes they just vanish without explosion...

I just tell my players that the heli was booby-trapped by the evil bots :)

Does this explanation work for you?

Your server host should have Arma3Config\config.cfg

at the bottom of that file you have:

// ADVANCED HELICOPTER CONTROLS

forceRotorLibSimulation = 0; // 0=disabled 1=advanced controls

I updated a3_epoch_server\compile\epoch_vehicle\EPOCH_load_vehicles.sqf with:

//_vehicle enableSimulationGlobal false;

I then started my server and tried getting into 20 or so different helis - NO BOOM!

I'll run this updated script on my production server and see if if helps. I also did not notice any drop in FPS.

Edit: I tried getting into the pilot seat of Mi-8T (RHS), Taru, M900, and multiple Hummingbirds. Still no boom!

May 25, 2015

I made a couple of a3_epoch_server changes and it works ok now.

At the bottom of EPOCH_load_vehicles.sqf I added

EPOCH_VehicleSlotsLimit = count _allVehicles;

and in the middle of server_init.sqf I changed the line that loads vehicles from the database effectively increasing the max number of vehicles to load up to the current storage limit (1500 in my case)

diag_log "Epoch: Loading vehicles";

//_workload2=EPOCH_VehicleSlotsLimit spawn EPOCH_load_vehicles;

_workload2=EPOCH_StorageSlotsLimit spawn EPOCH_load_vehicles;

I'm using the following script to save mission vehicles into the database:

Thanks, mate! I'll have to keep my script that's converting Karts into other vehicles for a little while longer.

May 24, 2015

Both scripts that I posted earlier save vehicles into the database. The problems start when all vehicle slots from epochconfig file are filled and there are no empty slots left. At that point the following script doesn't seem to work properly.

EPOCH_VehicleSlotsLimit = EPOCH_VehicleSlotsLimit + 1;
EPOCH_VehicleSlots pushBack str(EPOCH_VehicleSlotsLimit);
_slot = EPOCH_VehicleSlots= select 0;

diag_log format["WAI: _slot=%1",_slot];
	
_vehObj setVariable['VEHICLE_SLOT',_slot,true];
EPOCH_VehicleSlots = EPOCH_VehicleSlots - [_slot];
EPOCH_VehicleSlotCount = count EPOCH_VehicleSlots;
publicVariable 'EPOCH_VehicleSlotCount';

This is an extract from my log file. As you can see I'm getting new slots created and the vehicles are actually being saved into the database. I know because I downloaded and opened my database file.

The weirdest thing happens after the restart. All newly created vehicles are gone!

Does anyone have any ideas what may have caused it. Is there a hard limit in Epoch for number of vehicles?

May 23, 2015

SadBoy, this is vehicle save script from Arma 2 DayZ Epoch. It is intended to run on MySQL database.

I'm looking for a working version of the script for Redis database.

May 23, 2015

Does anyone have it working on a fully populated server with EPOCH_VehicleSlots=[] (zero empty slots)
to save a new mission vehicle to the database?

I'm getting the new vehicles recorded into the database, but after the restart my vehicle disappear (???).

You are running this code from your mission.sqm file? Mission doesn't know what EPOCH_server_setVToken is. It's gotta execute from a server-side pbo

May 18, 2015

To make this script play only once and not repeat the messages/intro music every time the player respawns, add the following piece of code into welcome.sqf

waitUntil {!isNuLL(uiNameSpace getVariable ["EPOCH_loadingScreen",displayNull])};

waitUntil {isNuLL(uiNameSpace getVariable ["EPOCH_loadingScreen",displayNull])};

_welcomeAlreadyPlayed = missionNamespace getVariable ["Welcome_Already_Played",[]];

diag_log format["DEBUG::: _welcomeAlreadyPlayed=%1",_welcomeAlreadyPlayed];

if (!((name player) in _welcomeAlreadyPlayed)) then {

_welcomeAlreadyPlayed pushBack (name player);

missionNamespace setVariable ["Welcome_Already_Played", _welcomeAlreadyPlayed];

Issue got resolved when I upgraded to 0.3.0.3 b6

May 14, 2015

I upgraded my GTX Epoch server to 0.3.0.3 build 4 and my server stopped loading past this line:

3:54:51 "Epoch: Starting ArmA3 Epoch Server, Version 0.3.0.3"
3:54:51 Unable to get file version size: C:\TCAFiles\Users\IgorT\8204\@EpochHive\epochserver.dll

Once the serer reaches this line in the loading process, it restarts. I suspect that there may be a database configuration issue bu the hoster assures me that everything looks good (GTX does not give me access to EpochServer.ini or redis.conf)

I also see the following errors in EpochServer.log:

2015-05-14 03:54:52 [Redis] The system tried to join a drive to a directory on a joined drive.
2015-05-14 03:54:53 [Redis] The system tried to join a drive to a directory on a joined drive.

2015-05-14 03:54:54 [Redis] Server not reachable

Can anyone explain what this error means and what is the possible solution?

Thanks!

Hi shurix,

nice little scripts. In the vehicle_actions_server.sqf, is it possible to at a function, that damage all vehicles without a specific item like jerrycan_epoch for example?

Your script damage vehicles with a specific item.

Sure it's possible. Get my script and change it as you like.

May 9, 2015

If you are searching for the list of ~300 objects on each server/client load, it will take lots of extra processing time and will not return all of these objects. I've been through that on Altis when some odd fuel pumps were still operational :(

I got the script from here http://forums.bistudio.com/showthread.php?172888-Fuel-%28Gas%29-Station-Disable

It makes sense to load the script into the editor and add

copyToClipboard str _arr;

in the end

This is another example how I get nearest map locations using the editor:

_allLocations = nearestLocations [[13999.6,12240.2,0.01],["NameCityCapital","NameCity","Airport","NameVillage","CityCenter","NameMarine","Name","NameLocal"], 500];  _arr = [];  {   _location=_x;   _locationPos= getPos _location;   _locationPos = [(_locationPos select 0),(_locationPos select 1),0.01];   _locName = name _location;   _arr pushBack [_locName,_locationPos];  } foreach _allLocations;  copyToClipboard str _arr;

Last set of scripts that damages vehicles on server restart will work on any map

I'm working hard on making my player's life very hard and miserable.

Please note I don't use BattleEye because I'm running a private server. So any BA filters are yours to add.

This is how I disable all auto-fueling on all gas stations.

Please note that this script allows you to teleport player close to the player's latest place of death (for 1000 crypto). I also added an ATM machine to the respawn box.

To make things realistic I remove gas from and damage every vehicle that contains a Jack tool (since there is no variable that identifies a freshly spawned vehicle). I borrowed the idea from DayZ Epoch with some modifications.

In init.sqf you need to pre-define these two functions

No BattleEye on my servers. Same problem with disappearing Backpacks, Rigs and Clothes

How about filling a 200-liter barrel from a big rusty fuel container like in DayZ Epoch?

I figured the rusty barrel class should be along the lines of:

nearby[] = {{"noclass", {"barrelwater_f.p3d", "water_source_f.p3d", "pumpa.p3d", "misc_wellpump.p3d"}, 3, 1, "Water Source","water"}};

Alternatively, it also means adding to Epoch client to allow to Siphon/Fill vehicle from the 200-liter barrel as well. Oh boy...

The video in the first post is from my server. I originally took Infected script http://forums.bistudio.com/showthread.php?181485-Infected-Script-by-Gulozwood/page13by Gulozwood and re-wrote it to create a trigger in every location on the map. The triggers are sent to clients and the actual scripts that trigger Zs to spawn are running on the client side. The original script was server-side.

I created a custom FSM file for zombie brains too to make them think a bit faster and chase the players all over the map.

I am able to control client FPS by limiting total number of zombies spawned for each player and by deleting zombies if player has left the trigger zone. This works well for cases with more than one player in the same trigger zone. Zombies also re-spawn at set intervals so my players to not get a break. I'm getting feedback that it's too hard to play because they are chased by zombies and stumble upon an AI patrol. At least the game is about survival again and not about stocking the warehouse with loot.

The worst part is that there is no good zombie model I could use and I'm not a 3DMax guy. I did not want to adapt DayZ model from Arma 2 because of the license limitations listed above.

At this time I have no plans to share/release this script. Sorry.

To create a fuel station do you need to use a trigger also?

not sure, but I know if I simply wanted to setFuelCargo=0 on all Land_fs_feed_F objects it wouldn't work. need a trigger to do it on the client when a player is near

This code has worked for me on Altis. Flushing all fueling stations when client connects.

Raptors are intended for a quick mission scenario, not to be ran by bots but by players. This is something that I discovered when I looked at Raptors mod for my missions.

[Altis + Zombies] doesn't make sense

now, [Taviana + Zombies] = LOTS OF FUN
