Heya, i got something working.
First you have to create a new file in your mpmission root folder and name it initplayerlocal.sqf.
while {true} do { waitUntil {alive vehicle player}; Sleep 8; [] execVM "custom\earplugs.sqf"; waitUntil {!alive player}; [] execVM "custom\earplugs.sqf"; }; then create earplugs.sqf in a custom folder or wherever you like:
if(isNil "EarPlugsOn") then {EarPlugsOn = true;} else {EarPlugsOn = !EarPlugsOn}; ToggleEarPlugs = { if (soundVolume != 1) then { 1 fadeSound 1; cutText ['Ear plugs taken off', 'PLAIN']; } else { 1 fadeSound 0.2; cutText ['Ear plugs put on', 'PLAIN']; }; }; if(EarPlugsOn) then { Press_F3 = (findDisplay 46) displayAddEventHandler ["KeyDown","if ((_this select 1) == 61) then {call ToggleEarPlugs;};"]; }; if(!EarPlugsOn) then { (findDisplay 46) displayRemoveEventHandler ["KeyDown", Press_F3]; }; However there is a chance you have to set up battleye filters to get it to work.

he is saying it should be quiet in the heli.
 
I would like to see an upgrade where you can find material to sound deaden the inside of the heli so you are a) forced to farm for it, b) it takes up space and c) you have to fly inside the heli for the noise to drop.

Hi, currently I am a bit tied up working on the updated launcher, to be released soon. I have an updated antagonist brain almost complete and am planning more work on the mission system in the New Year. We will be adding a treasure hunt type mission due to the popular demand for it, or at least the ability to 'craft' a mission like this. Also, can't wait to get working on the new antagonist, Kiory has been working his magic again.

*** This is only the beginning! If you're able to get your custom bases built, and implement them in game, please give credit! Took us a while to figure this out! :) ***
 
*** This is only ALPHA version of this base. This base will be updated with a Marker, vehicles, and possibly some more infrastructure (buildings). So bare with us! ***
 
Thanks to GZA on figuring out how to call the data from the PBO!

12/12 - Updated the mainbase.sqf for more camo nets, and more loot spawns. - So update your mainbase.sqf
Files: \buildings\ mainbase.sqf > Main file being called. \init\ fn_init.sqf > File calling the mainbase.sqf from the location. \root\ config.cpp > File that initializes SERVER pbo configurations. PboPrefix.txt Quality check to ensure that the files are being called. Thanks to Devs for making an awesome game!
 
I'll update this base as soon as I can to include some more features!
 
 
Update:
Include the following in your BattlEye/scripts.txt on the VERY top of the list.

Updated May 11, 2015: Version 1.0.0.5 released
 
I've been working for the last few months on a launcher for both Arma 2:OA and Arma 3. The goal is simple: keep it free, keep it updated (same day mod / game updates), and keep it from negatively impacting player ease of joining game servers. It's also modular and I can build in new games fairly easily.
 
Here are a few screenshots:
 

 

 

 

 
I decided to release a bit early due to the Arma 3 Epoch update and because the core features are stable. I have a sleugh of features in the works like favorites, friends, notifications, and statistics & reports. Coming soon, of course =)
 
Go download it at http://www.SurvivalLauncher.com
 
As feedback is crucial to this project, I ask that you let me know of any bugs or feature requests in the forum.
 
Cheers!

Hey,
 
So there is a lot of discussion about bases being perma or not...
 
The argument for perma bases (which I am for, by the way!), is that it's not fair that someone can spend weeks building a base, only to have it removed in one evening when they are not online. 
 
The argument against perma bases seem to be that its more realistic, I see the point here too - IRL, people WOULD be able to raid & destroy your bases, although not as easily as when someone leaves the game IRL for work/sleep etc!
 
That's the point here then, right? In Real Life, you'd ALWAYS have someone at the base - hell, you'd likely sleep there and have someone posted on guard to wake everyone to defend it if needed, right? Trouble is, we can't do that on DayZ, as we ALL need sleep, some go to school/college/work etc...
 
So how about being able to 'buy' from the traders (hire?) a small group of AI guards (a set number, like 1 sniper, 2 gunner, 1 scout and a medic?) that are only friendly to your GUID or PlayerUID (database)?
 
Obviously this would mean trouble for your clan mates, but then again, there could be a warning with 60 seconds to enter the right PIN code for the guard. The AI guards, when purchased, would appear at your base (plot pole? - so you'd have to have a placed pole to be able to purchase).
 
This way, players bases are guarded while they sleep or work IRL, but they are not perma, as if bandits are good, they will be able to wipe out all the guards then destroy/raid the base.
 
Prob quite a bit of coding, but I'd love to see this, and I'd even be happier using Epochs non-perma base building if I knew it was guarded so that one lonely sad geek couldn't wander up with a few tools and take it all apart unhindered!!!

Hey Survivors,
 
i started this new Thread for the Mod so it's easier for players to find it and for me to support it!
This will also stop the confusion with the mod when you use Maca's or mine and have problems with it.
 
I got Maca's permission to do it and ALL credits for the idea and the first coding goes to Maca!
Thanks again Maca for this amazing idea/script!
 
Ok here we go...
 
This Mod adds a "Toggle Snapping" function to these Epoch Buildable objects:
MetalFloor_DZ WoodFloor_DZ CinderWall_DZ CinderWallDoorway_DZ CinderWallDoorLocked_DZ CinderWallDoor_DZ CinderWallSmallDoorway_DZ CinderWallDoorSmallLocked_DZ CinderWallHalf_DZ CinderWallDoorSmall_DZ WoodLargeWall_DZ Land_DZE_LargeWoodDoor WoodLargeWallWin_DZ WoodLargeWallDoor_DZ Land_DZE_GarageWoodDoor Land_DZE_GarageWoodDoorLocked Land_DZE_LargeWoodDoorLocked WoodSmallWallThird_DZ WoodSmallWallDoor_DZ WoodSmallWall_DZ WoodSmallWallWin_DZ Land_DZE_WoodDoor Land_DZE_WoodDoorLocked Sandbag1_DZ MetalPanel_DZ Fence_corrugated_DZ StickFence_DZ Land_HBarrier1_DZ Land_HBarrier3_DZ Land_HBarrier5_DZ Fort_RazorWire Objects can be snapped to another object of the same type like:
Metal_Floor_DZ <-> Metal_Floor_DZ
Sandbag1_DZ <-> Sandbag1_DZ
 
or any Wall combination if its the same Material like:
WoodSmallWall_DZ <-> WoodSmallWall_DZ
WoodSmallWall_DZ <-> WoodSmallWallWin_DZ
CinderWallHalf_DZ <-> CinderWallHalf_DZ
CinderWallHalf_DZ <-> CinderWallDoorway_DZ
 
When you start building a new object you will get a "Toggle Snapping" option if the object is supported.
Hit it to activate the snapping.
 
Distance between the two objects has to be lower then 1.5m.
So move your object to almost same height and next to one side, near the top or near the bottom of the object you want to snap it to.
SNAP!
This allows you to build a Floor or a Wall on the same height in a perfect line.
 
It is also possible to make perfect 90° angles with it, for this you also have to bring the object almost in the desired angle to the other object and it will snap to it.
 
So What makes this version "Extended"?
 
Well...
Snapping will work on more then one  Floor Snapping will work while building over Water Snapping a object on Top/Bottom of eachother Snapping with set rotation (for set Door open directions) More objects supported Code for finding snap points redone Demo Video:
http://youtu.be/j5SXctN8WHA
 
Download (install instructions included):
https://www.dropbox.com/s/e1x7mcfuvy7mwyj/Snapping_v1.6.zip
 
Installation instructions:
 
1.
Download and extract Snapping_v1.6.zip
 
2.
unpbo MPMissions\YOURMISSIONNAME.pbo
 
3.
Copy custom folder from the extracted Snapping_v1.6 to MPMissions\YOURMISSIONNAME\
 
4.
Open MPMissions\YOURMISSIONNAME\init.sqf
Find this line:

call compile preprocessFileLineNumbers "\z\addons\dayz_code\init\compiles.sqf"; and add this line RIGHT BELOW it:
call compile preprocessFileLineNumbers "custom\snap_build\compiles.sqf"; so it will look like:
call compile preprocessFileLineNumbers "\z\addons\dayz_code\init\compiles.sqf"; call compile preprocessFileLineNumbers "custom\snap_build\compiles.sqf"; 5.
Open MPMissions\YOURMISSIONNAME\description.ext
Add this line to the VERY BOTTOM of it! (Yeah this means AFTER the last closing bracket!)
It has to be the VERY LAST LINE of the File!

#include "custom\snap_build\points.hpp" 6.
repbo MPMissions\YOURMISSIONNAME\ - upaload - reload - snap - smile!
 
 
I hope i could clarify the !IMPORTANCE! that you copy the lines i mentioned to the VERY BOTTOM!
Else:
No Snap - No Smile - unneded questions
 
 
 
Have fun with it,

This is one beautiful tutorial. Color-coordinated, well-formatted, clear, and concise. I wish more people doing releases used your example.

I used Maca134's code and just added the classname in the .hpp
http://epochmod.com/forum/index.php?/topic/4834-add-right-click-options-to-items/

It makes for a lot less code to loom around in the mission.pbo, which, in turn, makes your mission a lot more pleasing.

This is my first tutorial, so please bear with me. Any changes, improvements and comments are welcome.
 
After this tutorital you can click bloodbag to give it to yourself.
 
You can configure limitations like:
being able to use it in a vehicle time between 2 uses infection chance only able to use near hospital/medical vehicles blood amount etc. Giving bloodbag to other players will be unchanged!
 
Requirements:
* Basic knowledge of unpacking pbo's
* Custom compiles
* Common sense
 
Edit:// Follow this for epoch 1.0.5:
 
1) Copy this file from dayz_code.pbo to your MPMissions\...Your Mission Folder...\custom folder:
 
dayz_code\compile\ui_selectSlot.sqf
 
2) Open your custom compiles.sqf and change this line from:
player_selectSlot = compile preprocessFileLineNumbers "\z\addons\dayz_code\compile\ui_selectSlot.sqf"; to
player_selectSlot = compile preprocessFileLineNumbers "custom\ui_selectSlot.sqf"; 3) Create a new file in your custom folder called extra_rc.hpp and paste this code into it OR download the file from attachment and unzip:
(NB if you already have followed maca134 tutorial http://epochmod.com/forum/index.php?/topic/4834-add-right-click-options-to-items/ then you need to edit your current files)
class ExtraRc {     class ItemBloodbag {         class Use {             text = "Use Bloodbag";             script = "execVM 'custom\SelfBB.sqf'";         };     }; }; 4) Open your description.ext (in your MPMissions folder).
To the end add:
#include "custom\extra_rc.hpp" 5) Open custom\ui_selectSlot.sqf
 
Search for the loop in spoilers:



 
right after the loops closing bracket and semicolon add this code:
// Add extra context menus _erc_cfgActions = (missionConfigFile >> "ExtraRc" >> _item); _erc_numActions = (count _erc_cfgActions); if (isClass _erc_cfgActions) then { for "_j" from 0 to (_erc_numActions - 1) do { _menu = _parent displayCtrl (1600 + _j + _numActions); _menu ctrlShow true; _config = (_erc_cfgActions select _j); _text = getText (_config >> "text"); _script = getText (_config >> "script"); _height = _height + (0.025 * safezoneH); uiNamespace setVariable ['uiControl', _control]; _menu ctrlSetText _text;         _menu ctrlSetEventHandler ["ButtonClick",_script]; }; }; 6) Create a new file in your custom folder called SelfBB.sqf and paste this code into it OR download the file from attachment and unzip:
