Hey Guys,

 

Being new to Epoch server owner-slash-admining there's so much to learn too much to do I never managed to stay in editor more than 15 minutes.

I still don't have a "cool admin base" (pre-requisite to good administration, as we all know) and need one urgently.

 

I'm wondering if there is anyone who is willing to share their architectural wonder so that I (and others maybe) can have a cool base later tonight?

 

In tiny return I promise I will share whatever I manage to build within the next 6 months or so - when I complete my outstanding TODO list which contains 118 items as of now. Thanks in advance!

 

P.S.: BTW I'm on Chernarus map...

The editor is great fun and well worth poking around, I've spent hundreds of hours making outposts for players to loot and camp.

Nice but I am looking for pre-made bases if possible...

If none is available, it'll have to wait till I can start learning about map stuff. I am hoping I can have something real quick though.

Tell me what you want and what map, location and what types of building/loot, I'll see if i can come up with something suitable in the next 2 days :)

After that it will have to wait, I've got business that will take me away from home for 12 days.

Richie thanks for the offer but I really don't have an idea what I will need for the admin base. That's the other reason that taking an existing base would have helped. Sadly noone responded with a pre-built base. I will have learn and do it myself I guess...

Personally I despise the idea of a base just for admins, IF there are crates with weapons/gear that spawn in at every restart.
I'm sure theres plenty of forts/whatever on armaholic or on opendayz/here you can download and possibly customize to your own in the editor.

I've quickly made you something similar in a similar location :)

If you want anything added or changed just let me know, you can also have the .biedi file to change it yourself

Thanks I will study this and learn. Can I have the biedi file too then? I will find out how to use it.

Sure :) Here you go.

Richie,

 

Thanks I have downloaded the file and will check it out. Since you know this stuff, let me ask you another question: Do you know how to make a huge metal floor on any given piece of land/sea?

 

I am talking about utilizing this method in a way we can copy & paste and then update the coordinates using a text editor to end up with a 'working' metal floor in the  game world.

This metal floor obviously will be the the first stage of future modifications.

 

 

EDIT - I found out about attachTo command and making some progress. I can place one metal object and attachTo as many as I want (so far by manual text file editing).

EDIT2 - ...so managed to make a box with metal floor and cinder block walls. The first metal floor is the origin and everything else attaches to it so in theory you can take this origin piece and place wherever you want in any map and everything else will attach to it nicely. Not very useful at this stage but one day it might become reusable base :D

Interesting idea. At such scale the base would have to rest somewhere level otherwise the buildings would appear sunk/raised upon the landscape. Perhaps creating several smaller modular units to account for the changes in elevation. They could be specific to requirements: Medical, Armoury etc.

My admin base is made entirely in-game for which I'm proud. Despite its apparent simplicity, it's become more than just a base; it's a home. http://imgur.com/a/hlRKx

wow that's awesome! very homely. I managed to build what I wanted, it finished about 5 AM lol

I put one metal floor on the ground (in  fact I placed it 2 meters above the ground) and then did "attachTo" a million times. Initially a bit confusing but once I got the hang of it it was down the slope.

 

I'll post pictures and the code later, maybe someone can reuse it. The whole reason I attachTo'd so many times in the first place was reusability. If I'm not mistaken this code now can be used on any map (as long as you have the open space to place it obviously).

 

 

 

edit-typo fixed.
