Adding an image to a billboard?

[PryMary]

Hey Guys,

 

OK I have one billboard that's at the Branibor trader on Origins tavi map.

 

I would like to replace the billboard image with a different one, however I have managed to surpass the issue where that specific trader items/object would not come into the server but the image still is not showing on the billboard!

 

I have this error in the RPT:

 

13:29:48 Error in expression <setObjectTexture [0, "safezone.jpg"]>

13:29:48   Error position: <[0, "safezone.jpg"]>

13:29:48   Error Missing ;

13:29:48 Error in expression <setObjectTexture [0, "safezone.jpg"]>

13:29:48   Error position: <[0, "safezone.jpg"]>

13:29:48   Error Missing ;

 

The line(s) in question are:

 

_vehicle_176 = objNull;
if (true) then
{
  _this = createVehicle ["MAP_Bilboard_Escape", [7391.1621, 4275.0376, -1.1444092e-005], [], 0, "CAN_COLLIDE"];
  _vehicle_176 = _this;
  _this setDir -48.645615;
  _this setVehicleInit "setObjectTexture [0, ""safezone.jpg""]";
  _this setPos [7391.1621, 4275.0376, -1.1444092e-005];
 };

The safezone.jpg is in the mission root, I am guessing this is the right place to put it or would I have to have it in the server.pbo (kinda makes sense too, but what path would I put?)

 

I have also tried this:

 

_vehicle_176 = objNull;
if (true) then
{
  _this = createVehicle ["MAP_Bilboard_Escape", [7391.1621, 4275.0376, -1.1444092e-005], [], 0, "CAN_COLLIDE"];
  _vehicle_176 = _this;
  _this setDir -48.645615;
  _this setVehicleInit "setObjectTexture [0, ""\z\addons\dayz_server\map_update\safezone.jpg""]";
  _this setPos [7391.1621, 4275.0376, -1.1444092e-005];
};

 

But results in this in the RPT, and does not show in-game:

 

13:50:57 Error in expression <setObjectTexture [0, "\z\addons\dayz_server\map_update\sa>

13:50:57   Error position: <[0, "\z\addons\dayz_server\map_update\sa>

13:50:57   Error Missing ;

13:50:57 Error in expression <setObjectTexture [0, "\z\addons\dayz_server\map_update\sa>

13:50:57   Error position: <[0, "\z\addons\dayz_server\map_update\sa>

13:50:57   Error Missing ;

 

I don't see where I am missing an ; 

 

Sorry for being noob, not added an image like this before!

 

Kind regards,

 

Pry

Didn't MACA have custom billboards with the ones you would see when traveling from Krutoy Cap to Berezino? the larger variety? I could be wrong it's been ages since I've been on a CCG server.

Side Question: How did you get infiSTAR working with the 3d.live.mission.... ?

 

Probably, the size of model does not matter, it's whether or not it has named texture selection defined.

I wasn't using Sandbird's live editor, what you saw there was actual local MP server with verifySignatures set to 0 in server config (don't do this on live server, lol). This allows people to run extra @mods without being kicked, like debug console for example.
