Issue with loading screen staying visible

[Cuatro]

I installed the Plot For Life/Snap Pro scripts onto my server and when trying to join the first few times I would get it so I could hear myself moving but the loading screen is in the way. I restarted my server and was able to get in so I assumed it was fixed. I have now installed Plot Management and am getting this problem. Except now it hasn't improved after 2 or 3 restarts. Anyone know what the problem could be? I am going over it now and trying to fix it but if it has happened to anyone else or you know a solution please help I am just starting and not sure how to fix yet

This is a common issue. Usually it has to deal with you using execVM/exec and calling a wrong file path. Check your init.sqf and make sure that all files are being called correctly. There are other causes to this problem so I ask that you post your RPT log so we can get this fixed for you.

I am on Vilayer. Is it the web cosole you need? If so what is the best way to post it?

If you're getting into server management then you may want to get some form of FTP (File Transfer Protocol) client like Filezilla or whatever.  Makes uploading to the server sooooooo much simpler, and it would allow you to download the arma2oaserver.RPT  easily.

 

In the meantime, you can download it from the Vilayer ACPlayer using the logviewer.  It will give you access to a whole bunch of logs, The one asked for is vilayer_active_server_(insert your server number here)\arma2oaserver.RPT.  There'll be another for an inactive server which may or may not reveal your problem.

 

Stick the file on a hosting site like dropbox and paste the link.

 

Another useful file is your client report which normally sits on your home drive at;

C:\Users\<your username>\AppData\Local|ArmA 2 OA\ArmA2OA.RPT

and will show a whole host of other errors you may never know about :(  They're fixable, by the way.

 

Triage has probably nailed your problem on the head.  Check your paths.  Odds are you've saved your files somewhere differently from the author's intention and have missed the path somewhere, either in your init.sqf or in the description.ext which points to the plot management.hpp

I got it working. It was an issue with the vechicle flip that I forgot I had installed prior to installing the plot management. I am having 2 problems now though. One: I get a scroll option for plot maintencene, checking boundaries and so on. I cant however see anything that would let me "manage" the plot. It says theres nothing within the area so I attempted to build a wall and it tells me that there is no plot pole? I am spawning in the large box from the Infistar AH menu. Two: Like I said I am spawning these things in from the admin panel but I just noticed that when I use a plot pole it doesnt remove it from my inventory? Is this because I am admin? I havent had anyone that could test it for me thats not an admin so I have no idea if this is for everyone or just admin.

Also I am using Filezilla

Glad you got it figured out.

Go back over your plot management install and management forums, pay much attention to the part about inventory vs intentory. Im guessing that is probably your issue

For the endless load screen and hearing in-game sound.

 

You might want to check your compiles.sqf.

 

Find this line

        while { _timeOut < 12000 } do {
            if (dayz_clientPreload && dayz_authed) exitWith { diag_log "PLOGIN: Login loop completed!"; };

Change to

        while { _timeOut < 12000 } do {
            if (dayz_clientPreload && dayz_authed) exitWith {
			diag_log "PLOGIN: Login loop completed!"; 
			endLoadingScreen;
			};
