[Map Addition] Chernogorsk Quarantine Zone

[Poncho]

First things first here is a preview of the addition. Situated in central Chernogorsk it acted as a last attempt to quell the infection, and save any survivors from the infected. But like most places on Chernarus it soon became too dangerous, and it's inhabitants were scattered to the wastes. The 'Chernogorsk Quarantine Zone' holds many items of values, apart from encircling two lootable buildings it also houses multiple military, medical and vehicle salvage points. Nothing too overpowered for a coastal town, but still something worth a trip to.

**All loot spawns are fully functional within this edit, they do not appear in this video preview as it was filmed in the map editor, tried and tested on multiple servers - confirmed working**

 

To install simply:

 

1) Copy the code below into a file called 'ChernoQuarantine_Zone.sqf'

 

2) Make a folder called 'Maps' in the root of your mission.pbo (skip if you already have a folder used for this)

 

3) Insert the 'ChernoQuarantie_Zone.sqf' into this folder

 

4) Finally in your init.sqf add this line of code at the bottom:

[] execVM "Maps\ChernoQuarantine_Zone.sqf";

Note* if you already have a folder for custom map content edit the following as required:

[] execVM "your folder\your file name.sqf";

Following is the code content for the ChernoQuarantine_Zone.sqf

**There are also fixed loot spawns added, these will respawn with each server restart, they are clearly indicated in the code should you wish to remove them**

 

 

Alternately you may add the content server side to reduce mission file size for new players joining your server.

 

At the bottom of server_functions.sqf add this line:

execVM "\z\addons\dayz_server\init\quarantinezone.sqf";

Then save code in OP in a new .sqf in \init folder named quarantinezone.sqf

 

 

Please leave a like on the youtube vid if you liked the addition, and let me know what you think :)

"2) Make a file called 'Maps' in the root of your mission.pbo"

Did you mean to say "Make a folder "Maps"" ?

 

I'm trying it now and will let you know a bit later :) thanks a lot

[Poncho]

Derp... Thanks Johny. This is why you don't write forum posts at 4am haha. Updated it now.

Nice. A spoiler for the code would be appreciated :)

[Poncho]

Nice. A spoiler for the code would be appreciated :)

 

Hmmm how would I use the spoiler option? I have seen it used but don't know how to add the code in one :S

 

Also thanks ebay, I am using a ViLayer Hive so adding it to my mission.pbo allows me to very easily and quickly comment the [] exec code in the init.sqf to temporarily disable it, something very useful for me as in our server we have content that regularily appear / dissapear as it is required for events e.t.c

 

Adding your option as an alternate to the origional, thanks :)

This is how you add a spoiler:

(spoiler) text or whatever goes here (/spoiler)

*replace the ( ) with [ ]

 

This link is a nice reference for those that plan to make a lot of posts on forums:

*gasp*
Sorry, I would have replied sooner, but my mouse caught on fire.
Cool video.

[Robinajax]

Awesome! Thanks Poncho!

[Judge Bread]

Looks good might try it out.

[Poncho]

Thanks GetCrazy, big help buddy :) Luckily it seems an ever watchful moderator has thrown it in a pastebin, so I guess thanks for that too who ever you are!

[tamaster92]

Using on my server instead of the usual tents

Looks awesome and everyone likes it :)

Thanks!

[Poncho]

Good to hear :) Working on a few others but I'm trying as best I can to make sure stuff stays in keeping with dayz. Currently working on smaller multiple bases for use with SARGE AI static spawns. I really like the idea of coming across a small survivor camp with a few sitting round a fireplace, or bandits patrolling round their perimeter guarding their loot spoils. 

[PsychoSyd]

Thanks for the share! Very atmospheric.

[MatthewK]

Great work. Can't wait to see your upcoming map editions :)

[Poncho]

Thanks PsycoSyd and hayward. In 20 days I will be returning to sea again for another 3 month trip, but will be bringing my laptop :) I do enjoy making map additions so I will try to keep on uploading as and when the internet access permits.

Just a question and you know much more than me and have way more experience. But I have always seen those exec commands accompagnied with []

 

are you sure this is not necessary now?

[Poncho]

I tend to use them for indications, when you have a lot of edits in it just helps as a visual trigger to recognise the code lines. Saves some time in the longs stints of code editing ;) As far as I am aware however, it is as ebay said. I don't believe they are a vital.

kaysion over on the opendayz forums has thrown it into his j0k3e5 pack, looks great with the creepy fog effect!

mini bump :p

[Uncle Bad Touch]

Looks gorgeous dude great work! I am just playing around the the 3d editor currently, what are the solid cement walls/fortifications you used in there and what category is it under? Just having the hardest time finding it, any help would be appreciated. :)

[Cannon]

Love it, will be adding it to our severs thanks :)

[Cannon]

The walls are "Concrete_Wall_EP1"

You may need to download an extra content mod for your editor like Jon-C5 to get it

(remember you'll need to remove these once you are done editing to be able to play)
