[Default Spawn Loadout]

Greetings! I have been wanting to change the loadout that players start with when they spawn. I researched this on the Epoch wiki and it is my understanding that the init.sqf in the \Arma 2 Operation Arrowhead\MPMissions\DayZ_Epoch_11.Chernarus folder can be edited to allow for this. The wiki section I found was this one: http://dayzepoch.com/wiki/index.php/Init.sqf#Customize_fresh_spawn_loadout

 

I modified the relevant section in my init.sqf in the \Arma 2 Operation Arrowhead\MPMissions\DayZ_Epoch_11.Chernarus and it now looks like this:

 

// Default gear

DefaultMagazines = ["ItemBandage","ItemPainkiller","8Rnd_9x18_Makarov"]; 

DefaultWeapons = ["ItemFlashlight","ACRE_PRC152","Makarov"]; 

DefaultBackpack = "DZ_Patrol_Pack_EP1"; 

DefaultBackpackWeapon = "";

 

 

However, upon spawning into the game, players instead receive the following: 1x Bandage, 1x Painkiller, 1x Flashlight, 1x Patrol Pack. They do not receive the Makarov, the ammunition for the Makarov, or the ACRE radio. I have confirmed I can manually add these to a player directly into SQL. 

 

I am baffled as to why the other items aren't spawning and I was hoping someone might have some input as to what I am missing. Thanks!

[Basic Server Configuration Question]

Thank you for the reply. I believe the issue has been resolved. I appreciate it!

[Basic Server Configuration Question]

Greetings all! I am very new to hosting a DayZ Epoch server, or a DayZ server in general and I have hit confusion on something. I feel this should be really simple, but despite searching for it I just can't seem to make it work.

 

Succinctly, I am attempting to disable tracers on the server.

 

I am trying to enable, FriendlyTag, 3rdPersonView, etc. on the server.

 

I have attempted to add items to the config.cfg file located in C:\Program Files (x86)\Steam\steamapps\common\Arma 2 Operation Arrowhead\instance_11_Chernarus. However, the server seems to ignore these flags.

 

I know its reading from the file as I can change other variables such as the server name, motd, etc.

 

I am confident I'm missing something simple but searches have only found me templates of config files, etc. Nothing that seems to indicate why its ignoring flags I set/change.

 

Any assistance would greatly appreciated!
