  1.  

    You can adjust you save times in Redis.conf if you want faster saves to the database.

    For instance what in redis.conf looks like:
    save 900 1
    save 300 10
    save 60 1000
    that means, save after 900 seconds if there is at least 1 change to the dataset, and after 300 seconds if there are at least 10 changes to the datasets, and 60 seconds if there are 1000 changes.

     

     

         Oh, now I see how redis is working.. Makes sense now. Thanks!

  2.      So, I have my own dedicated server that is just LAN for the moment (hopefully I explained that right). Whenever I log back on it has rolled back anywhere from 30min-1hour. I log out like this...Disconnect myself through admin menu in game, close out tadst, then I close out start-redis.cmd. I don't see the point in leaving the server running since its private, but then again, I don't know how it all works.

     

         I am also under the impression that every time I shut everything down I'm restarting the server.. I have added two new vehicles (Ifrit and ghost hawk) and they never show up after I log back on. The ghost hawk showed up once and I logged out and haven't seen it since! 

     

         So, I guess my questions here are, is there a way to save the db as it is right before logging so I don't have to worry about rollbacks? And is my server being restarted correctly? 

     

         Thanks for taking the time to help me out, this is super frustrating for me, and the only problems that are keeping me from moving forward.

     

                                          And yes, I have used the search function for hours and have found nothing that helped me so please save it. 

     

     

  3. you've done everything right. perhaps after several restarts.

     

         Right now my server is just LAN while I learn the basics, and I was under the impression that every time I disconnect the server restarts.. Is that correct? Every time I log back on it rolls back, and all of the same vehicles are on the map, so it doesn't really seem to be restarting. Last night I got a ghost hawk to spawn, but after leaving and joining again it was gone! I don't know if there's a proper way that I should be restarting.. Thanks for the help btw!

         Hey, wondering if you could help me out before I have to start another thread about this topic.. So I did exactly what you posted there, (or what I thinks close lol...), and literally nothing happens! The vehicles don't spawn, and I don't get a restriction.. I have no clue what's going on. Here's what I have..

    	{"B_Heli_Transport_01_EPOCH",2},
            {"B_Heli_Transport_01_camo_EPOCH",2},
            {"B_G_Offroad_01_F",2},
            {"B_G_Offroad_01_armed_F",2},
            {"O_MRAP_02_hmg_F",2},
            {"I_Heli_Transport_02_EPOCH",2}
    };
    

     

  5. thats only good if u always plan ro play alone. learning the BE filters is a part of the process and one of the basics. say u decide to go public, days of BE kicks wont help get it started.

     

         You're absolutely right. I think I'll have a go with the filters. Now I can't ,for the life of me, find where the filters are located. Would you happen to know where I can find them? Thanks for the insight btw!  :)

  6.     So, the server I have started is mainly for learning all the basics. I'm not planning to ever have anyone else get on it except for myself. So my question is, do I need an Anti-Hack? I assume it would make it easier if I didn't have it so I wouldn't have to worry about editing all the BE filters when I add things such as missions. But what do I know! Thoughts?  :D

  7.  

    Unpack your mpmission/EPOCH.MAPNAME..PBO , decode when scrambled.

     

     

         So, I just started to play around with this in Eliteness and unpacked the epoch.Altis.pbo. Once I've done that how would I go about repacking it? Or do I need to if no changes were made? Eliteness has made a new folder named "epoch.Altis" in mpmissions and I'm not sure if it's safe to delete it.. Ahh, I hope I didn't mess anything up!  :wacko:

  8. Get PBOManager, so you can pack/unpack complete PBO's so you can edit them

    Get Arma Elitness , and decode the files that you unpacked.

     

    Unpack your mpmission/EPOCH.MAPNAME..PBO , decode when scrambled.

     

    Get used to how the init.sqf , description.ext and mission.sqm in there work, and try to figure out what all the lines in there do.

     

    From there, when someone posts an earplug script, and points to editing init.sqf and dropping files into your PBO you have *some* clue how to do it.. If you persist, you'll get it.

     

    Also, don't bother about the signature being lost when editing that file, there is NO harm doing it.

     

     

      

    Thanks! I have some direction now.  :D

  9.      So I'm just starting out. I have a server up and now I have no clue what to do! There's a lot of things I would like to add, such as missions, earplugs, etc.. I really need to start getting the jist of things though, so I'm hoping someone can point me in the direction of somewhat basic things to do that will help me learn about all of this. Sorry if I'm being vague here, but it comes with the noob territory.  :)
