mimic Posted February 20, 2015 Report Share Posted February 20, 2015 Well we've used the default mission on several servers and crate location is always at the first letter of the town name on the map. Shift and left click on the first letter on the map to set a waypoint and we find the crate every time. Not sure why it's not there for you unless the mission has been modified. I think he was expecting something to show up when he put his mouse cursor over the first letter of the city. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ulli_123 Posted February 20, 2015 Report Share Posted February 20, 2015 It would be important also a display on the map where is the mission, because sometimes you forget the name of the city.In addition, people see the newly unable to join on the server, where and whether your mission running.

BetterDeadThanZed Posted February 20, 2015 Report Share Posted February 20, 2015 I'm pretty sure TheVampire has said a few times he does not want to put map markers. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TheKnightTemplar Posted February 20, 2015 Report Share Posted February 20, 2015 I'm pretty sure the default mission included is just an example of what can be done with the framework. Map markers are easy to add if you want to customise the mission for your server. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DaCoon Posted February 20, 2015 Report Share Posted February 20, 2015 From what i can read of nearly all of your comments, you guys are way more in to all this server stuff than i am.... :-) Vampire....i tryede to follow your video and putede the files up to oure server ( the 3 files ) but it dosent seem to work ....do i have to put the rest of the folder somehere diffrent or ???

Lost_Noob Posted February 21, 2015 Report Share Posted February 21, 2015 So when can we expect the next update to the mission system or is it completed? I imagine it will need some changes when next version of Epoch comes around? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

omega13 Posted February 22, 2015 Report Share Posted February 22, 2015 having also the issue with people being teleported away from the mission spawn crates with loot in them as soon as they get close they go back 15m so they cant get the loot Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Moody Posted February 22, 2015 Report Share Posted February 22, 2015 Can anyone tell me why the crate keeps bouncing up and down when it spawns and then dissapears? We are not able to loot that crate that buggs and dissapears. It only happens every now and then(but i feel like its happening too often). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Fog Horn Posted February 22, 2015 Report Share Posted February 22, 2015 @Omega13 , it's related to your AH , read previous posts for a solution @Moody , same as above I believe Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
horbin Posted February 22, 2015 Report Share Posted February 22, 2015 Its the box type you are using. Just avoid that box type, because InfiStar is using it for adminboxes. Fully configurable is what ya really need :) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
grafzahl Posted February 23, 2015 Report Share Posted February 23, 2015 So to clearify: There wont be any Update till epoch 0.3 is out? What a shame :( This is the only real mission-system currently on the market, A3EAI is cool, but its not a real "mission", SEM ist for derps... the AI is so dump, the missions are so easy... you could also shoot chickens, no real thread. VEMF is not overblowen, slim, easy to install... but it crashes my server from time to time with "Join to another group" rpt-spams, then there are "disappearing AI", that wont let missions be completed... when the completion chance is at 80%. PLEASE make a hotfix or something, i dont think that 0.3 will waste your complete framework... ive seen you already did a lot of work on the next version, please pop it out :) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
VAKE Posted February 28, 2015 Report Share Posted February 28, 2015 I had this on my server for a little while, but removed it due to no marker/notification system other than one message on one radio channel. However, the proposed updates look promising. I'll definitely be keeping an eye on its progression. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TheVampire Posted February 28, 2015 Author Report Share Posted February 28, 2015 I'm going to be working on pushing the next update through today and tomorrow. Sorry for missing the video promise. It's not VEMF-related and I didn't have time to render it yet. Sorry to keep everyone waiting. unrealPANDA and grafzahl 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Read his install guide! ExecVM "\VEMF\Scripts\VAllowDamage.sqf"; should not be running client side. Download the Github Zip folder and open it with your unPacker of choice. You can find the newest release here: https://github.com/SMVampire/VEMF/releases Extract it to your Desktop or somewhere where you won't lose it. Inside the Zip is this Readme.MD, and the folders "Binaries", "Changelogs", "Mission Files", and "VEMF". Open the "Mission Files" folder where you will see "init.sqf" and "initServer.sqf". You need to put these two files in your Mission.PBO (or Folder) alongside your description.ext file. If you already have an "init.sqf" there, you will need to open my version and copy the contents to your existing file. Open the "Binaries" folder where you will find "VEMF.PBO". You need to navigate to the "@EpochHive\Addons" folder on your server and copy "VEMF.PBO" into it. (Options) You can edit "VEMFConfig.sqf" to your liking. It is located in the "VEMF.PBO". You can also instead put a copy of "VEMFConfig.sqf" in your Mission.PBO for easier edits. The server checks the Mission.PBO for the Config before checking the server side. The Mission.PBO version takes precedence. cyncrwler 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cyncrwler Posted March 1, 2015 Report Share Posted March 1, 2015 One of my absolute favorite things to do in Epoch are the Dynamic Town Invasions. The loot might be meh, but damn, the fun factor is out of control. Patiently awaiting the next update. Take all the time you need. I personally would rather get things done right, than to rush something out to appease the masses, just to need a bunch of hot fixes. Thank you! Thank you!

cyncrwler Posted March 1, 2015 Report Share Posted March 1, 2015 Read his install guide! It is truly amazing what you can learn by reading. I hate to sound like a douche, but seriously. I am a new server owner, have been running my own server and installing these scripts for about three and a half months, so I know what I am saying when I say it is easy if you follow the basic instructions. You can't cut corners, you can't come into the mix on page #40, and not read through everything that has been said until then. Read read read, and make sure you fully understand before installing. And if reading isn't your thing "don't be a server admin for one!"

ZyGHeliosProtocol Posted March 1, 2015 Report Share Posted March 1, 2015 Vampire - First of all, NICE WORK! Now, on to the real reason for the post. Lately my missions have been running smoothly, then dissappearing for days. No reason or clue as to why, but my players are starting to notice that they've gone and voice how they miss them terribly. I haven't seen anything in the logs to give a clue as to why they stop, but here and there they do, and they hang up for quite a while. Sometimes a couple manual restarts will jog them back online again, but can't put my finger on why the messages and ai stop Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
