Vilayer Overpoch help

[sirblockwood]

Yes i am using Vilayer to host my own dayz server and i will have an overpoch server but am unable to figure out how to do this..can anyone help with detailed instructions?

[inigomontoyayoukilledmydad]

theres a thread on here showing how to do the install, and then loot tables, and another about traders and DB. just look fro the threads with [TUTORIAL] at the front of the thread title.

 

heres a good place to start

[sirblockwood]

the video says nothing about Vilayer or how to upload the files and components to make it work!

[Quakeremfon]

You need to manually download the files:

 

Go to Vilayer Control Panel, Epoch Manager Beta, Action: Download Overwatch mod files and Execute. Can't help you further.. I don't own a Overpoch server.

[inigomontoyayoukilledmydad]

vilayer is a live PBO. everything is live extracted and it re PBOs and runs your stuff for you every startup. you dont really need to upload much.

 

goto addon panel

 

install a database

 

install epoch

 

go to main cpanel

 

epoch manager

 

run the script to Download Overwatch files

 

goto startup script add to end "@DayZOverwatch" or whatever the Overwatch addon directory name is as it appears in your file manager

 

follow the video, isntead of downloading PBO unpacking editing and repacking, with vilayer you just access your vilayercodecustom/dayz_epoch or vilayercodecustom/missions/ and whatever directory corresponds to the map your running for me its epoch.napf

 

watch the vid and explore your file manager some and it will start to make sense.

 

only thing you need to upload is your loot files for custom loot which is explain in one of those vids.

 

also theres a different thread for adding the loot to trader. you will need heidisql or navicat or a similar program for that.

[sirblockwood]

Okay for the start up scripts i see something that says startup settings and when i click it it goves me a drop down menu with these options Mod priority 

 

End of list (default) 

Start of list

 

Then an empty box that says next to it Add Mods..

 

is that where i put @DayZOverwatch

[inigomontoyayoukilledmydad]

yeah add it to the end of list

[sirblockwood]

Sorry i am a complete newb when it comes to this stuff...when i install epoch and the overwatch files does it have the coin system already enabled and can you buy vehicles and other items? or do i have to do the custom loot thing cause i have played on a couple of overpoch servers where they had hundreds of guns and used a coin currency and could build bases buy cars trucks do missions and buy helicopters...This is my first time owning a dayz server before and am total newblit! 

[inigomontoyayoukilledmydad]

you will have to add the custom loot tables to get the overwatch gear to spawn in the loot in buildings etc. you will have to go into the db with the sql programs i mentioned above and edit the db the add the guns to traders so you can buy them.

 

as for the coin system i believe that requires editing of a ton of the epoch structure itself and is very very very intensive. i have look around for a easy way to do it and i havent found one yet. if someone knows though please let us know

[sirblockwood]

yes please let us know...and i have that heidiSQL and was wondering how i go about doing that with that..like i said im total newblit..sorry!

[inigomontoyayoukilledmydad]

BACKUP your DB first!

 

with heidi sql login,in the main window  click epoch>click traders_data> no click the data tab on the top of the inner main window

 

you should get a huge list of all the items in the DB for traders with buy sell prices etc

 

now click the query tab

 

here you can paste a string and it will insert an item. of you can paste a whole block of strings.

 

here ill give you this, not all the guns are in there right sections, it puts them in the Lenzburg weapons trader, and the ammo in the Lenzburg ammo traders some things are not in the right sections i got lazy when messing wit this

 

http://pastebin.com/CGxKA4BR

 

paste all that into a notepad++ and save it. no for instance say you wanna had the block of strings from that file to add the smgs

 

in the query box for traders_data you paste in

 

INSERT INTO `epoch`.`traders_data` (`item`, `qty`, `buy`, `sell`, `tid`, `afile`) VALUES ('["vil_uzi",3]', 250, '[1,"ItemGoldBar10oz",1]', '[1,"ItemGoldBar10oz",1]', 604, 'trade_weapons');

INSERT INTO `epoch`.`traders_data` (`item`, `qty`, `buy`, `sell`, `tid`, `afile`) VALUES ('["vil_uzi_SD",3]', 250, '[1,"ItemGoldBar10oz",1]', '[1,"ItemGoldBar10oz",1]', 604, 'trade_weapons');

INSERT INTO `epoch`.`traders_data` (`item`, `qty`, `buy`, `sell`, `tid`, `afile`) VALUES ('["vil_uzi_c",3]', 250, '[1,"ItemGoldBar10oz",1]', '[1,"ItemGoldBar10oz",1]', 604, 'trade_weapons');

INSERT INTO `epoch`.`traders_data` (`item`, `qty`, `buy`, `sell`, `tid`, `afile`) VALUES ('["vil_uzimini",3]', 250, '[1,"ItemGoldBar10oz",1]', '[1,"ItemGoldBar10oz",1]', 604, 'trade_weapons');

INSERT INTO `epoch`.`traders_data` (`item`, `qty`, `buy`, `sell`, `tid`, `afile`) VALUES ('["vil_uzimini_SD",3]', 250, '[1,"ItemGoldBar10oz",1]', '[1,"ItemGoldBar10oz",1]', 604, 'trade_weapons');

INSERT INTO `epoch`.`traders_data` (`item`, `qty`, `buy`, `sell`, `tid`, `afile`) VALUES ('["vil_Vikhr",3]', 250, '[1,"ItemGoldBar10oz",1]', '[1,"ItemGoldBar10oz",1]', 604, 'trade_weapons');

INSERT INTO `epoch`.`traders_data` (`item`, `qty`, `buy`, `sell`, `tid`, `afile`) VALUES ('["vil_MP5SD_EOTech",3]', 250, '[1,"ItemGoldBar10oz",1]', '[1,"ItemGoldBar10oz",1]', 604, 'trade_weapons');

INSERT INTO `epoch`.`traders_data` (`item`, `qty`, `buy`, `sell`, `tid`, `afile`) VALUES ('["vil_MP5_EOTech",3]', 250, '[1,"ItemGoldBar10oz",1]', '[1,"ItemGoldBar10oz",1]', 604, 'trade_weapons');

INSERT INTO `epoch`.`traders_data` (`item`, `qty`, `buy`, `sell`, `tid`, `afile`) VALUES ('["vil_MPi",3]', 250, '[1,"ItemGoldBar10oz",1]', '[1,"ItemGoldBar10oz",1]', 604, 'trade_weapons');

 

scroll up and down make sure no unwanted characters or anything made it in. if it looks good then on the toolbar theres a blue "Play" icon, the same icon on the query tab, when you mousehover over it sound say "execute sql" click this

 

it will install all the items listed in the string block.  no erase that bunch of code and you can paste in another block and add that if you get a message that there was a duplicate entry and it stops the execution. then just go to the top of the code and scroll down until you find the item and delete that line and every line above it, and click execute again

 

this will add them and you can go back and fix my errors of organization by accessing the traders_data and manually going thru

also all the prices are just placeholder prices

 

remember to backup the DB before you do anything, if the DB gets f-ed up just a little can cause your server to not load up players or break the traders menus.

 

the assault rifle section is huge cause i got lazy looking up stuff to see if it was and wasnt this or that kind of gun. so you may wanna break it up into a few blocks when adding it in, cause sometimes vilayer can time out due to buffer overflows.

[sirblockwood]

so that link i can copy and paste it all in the Query section and then hit the play button?

[inigomontoyayoukilledmydad]

i wouldnt recommend it, id do it section by section and omit any lines that dont begin with INSERT. id read all of what i wrote.

 

this guy explains it all way more in depth

[sirblockwood]

i wonder if Vilayer would set it up for me lol

[inigomontoyayoukilledmydad]

they dont do any support like that. believe me i know. i just got my server stable again after 1.0.5.x. thank cripes

[sirblockwood]

im willing to give someone my skype so they can walk me through this...im desperate lol!

[sirblockwood]

Okay i have done nothing but install epoch and the overwatch files and when i try to hop on to see what is working it just sticks at receiving mission file 4kb/52kb...

[inigomontoyayoukilledmydad]

you also have to go into your @DayZEpoch and copy the dayz_code.pbo and its bisign file. then go to @DayzOverwatch and delete the dayz_code.pbo and its bisign file, the paste in the ones from @DayZEpoch so they are the same in each folder.

[sirblockwood]

which bisign file? there is a bunch of them plus alot of pbo files also..do i copy all of them and past em in the overwatch folder?

[sirblockwood]

and how do i copy them.? there is no option in the file manager 

[inigomontoyayoukilledmydad]

what i do with vilayer is just check the box next to them and make a zip file, download it, then upload it where i want it then unpack it.

[sirblockwood]

i am about ready to give up...i think i bit off more then i can chew...

[sirblockwood]

So people know this is what i want my server to be like..on the CCG launcher they have single currency |gold coins| |banks| base building..buying different weapons and vehicles like suv's helicopters airplanes..and they have lots of weapons..and trader cities..if anyone can help me through this i would be great full from here to kingdom come.. i can give my skype to someone and they can either chat or voice chat and walk me through the steps...i am a total newb and never have done anything like this before!
