[server install help]

I've read the official how to guide, but it seems to be missing a lot of info, perhaps assumed knowledge. I have followed all of the steps and filled in the blanks from what I remember from the DayZ epoch  server days.

How do I start the server?

the batch files refer to Epochserver_x64.exe but In the directory, I only have arma3server_x64.exe

if I run arma3server_x64.exe I get the error missing XAPOFX1_5.dll

where have I gone wrong.

 

 

***** EDIT****

a quick search and I found that the dll files required are in windows/system32 and wow64 directories, and just needed to be copied over to my server2012 machine.

Hi Affraid, I've followed the instructions but every time i put in

[] execVM "\z\addons\dayz_server\addons\ai.sqf";

[] execVM "\z\addons\dayz_server\addons\lottery.sqf";

[] execVM "\z\addons\dayz_server\addons\buildingsupplys.sqf",

 

my server will not authenticate, it tries several times and then just says you must be stuck beside a rock. I remove those 3 lines from the server_functions and it boots up without an issue.

 

 

I use Vilayer and have to load these files client side, Create a folder in your main mission folder called "map", put these three files in the new directory and add the following to init.sqf 

 

[] execVM "map\aicity.sqf";

[] execVM "map\lottery.sqf";

[] execVM "map\buildingsupplys.sqf"

 

Its the only way it works for me.

 

 

on another note, I don't know if anyone else has noticed that the first three static ammo boxes spawn in Petrovka

 

_box = createVehicle ["BAF_VehicleBox",[4831.2842,12611.358,0.0001373291], [], 0, "CAN_COLLIDE"];
