Some scripts not working.

[SinisterXylene]

Hi, i just updated my epoch server to an overpoch one, i have kept my server pbo and all my mission files, however some of my scripts don't work, i have noticed that the walking dead zombies script doesn't and my admin menu won't pop up either, any help would be appreciated, i have tried all i can think and nothing on the internet seems to solve my problem.

 

Here is my RPT: http://pastebin.com/B94CgcM6

 

Thanks!

 

EDIT: I also tried reinstalling the scripts however this didn't help either.

Which scripts don't load?  It looks like some are loading successfully - DZAI and WAI in particular.  Vehicles appear to be spawning in, too.  I don't know about the Hive:  Write:  messages but I believe they are normal.  Pretty much every thing else looks normal and my servers output the same messages.  Take a look at your client-side .rpt.  It usually has more information in it.

Here is a list of scripts that dont seem to work: 

 

Walking dead zombies - makes zombies only walk

 

Admin menu

 

I can't seem to find my client rpt, any idea where this might be?

 

Also i don't think a client side problem would cause a server's scripts to not load would it?

 

Thanks for the help.

 

EDIT: Found my rpt, i will generate a new copy and upload when im done.

Client RPT: http://pastebin.com/cuTCzX6g

The client .RPT is generally under c:\users\yourname\appdata\local\arma2oa\.  If you have "display hidden files" turned off, you won't see the local directory.  To turn it on, open your control panel and do a search for "hidden".  It'll take you to the CP location to show hidden files.

 

I don't see anything at all that indicates that there are any problems at all. Walking dead for example - I know there are some issues with it working properly if you are using Infistar, but it does load in that case.  It is called from a custom compiles.sqf.  Are you sure Epoch is actually calling your custom compiles.sqf?  That's set in the mission init.sqf file.  You can put a test message to write to the .rpt that it actually loaded the custom compiles.sqf.  Something like    diag_log format["loaded custom compiles.sqf"];

 

And when you get the client .rpt, post it.  It often will have errors that the server-side won't.

ok i will do this now, thanks for the help!

Ok, i added the recommended line to my compiles.sqf, here is my new rpt:

I noticed that nowhere in my rpt does it say "loaded custom compiles.sqf"

Does anyone know how i get it to read my custom compiles?

 

Thanks for the help.

[SinisterXylene]

I think i found the problem, some of my mp mission names were incorrect :P i will see if this is the issue now.

 

EDIT: Unfortunately this didn't seem to solve my problem.

Bump

I'm not at home right now but when I get there, I'll post the changes to init.sqf so it processes your custom compiles.sqf.  If I do it from memory, I probably won't quite get it right.

 

Did you ever find your client side .rpt? 

[SinisterXylene]

the most recent rpt i posted was my client, ill be waiting, thanks so much for the help!

In your map folder in the MPMissions folder, look in init.sqf.  You'll see a section like this:

 

/Load in compiled functions
call compile preprocessFileLineNumbers "custom\fixes\variables.sqf";       //Initilize the Variables (IMPORTANT: Must happen very early)
call compile preprocessFileLineNumbers "origins\config.sqf";       //Initilize the Variables (IMPORTANT: Must happen very early)
call compile preprocessFileLineNumbers "custom\chameleon\chameleon_init.sqf";     //Chameleon Skin Changer
progressLoadingScreen 0.1;
call compile preprocessFileLineNumbers "\z\addons\dayz_code\init\publicEH.sqf";     //Initilize the publicVariable event handlers
progressLoadingScreen 0.2;
call compile preprocessFileLineNumbers "\z\addons\dayz_code\medical\setup_functions_med.sqf"; //Functions used by CLIENT for medical
progressLoadingScreen 0.4;
call compile preprocessFileLineNumbers "custom\fixes\compiles.sqf";
call compile preprocessFileLineNumbers "origins\compiles.sqf";       //Compile regular functions
call compile preprocessFileLineNumbers "ZSC\gold\ZSCinit.sqf";         //Zupa Single Currency
call compile preprocessFileLineNumbers "addons\bike\init.sqf";         //Personal Bike
call compile preprocessFileLineNumbers "addons\suicide\init.sqf";        //Dramatic Suicide
progressLoadingScreen 0.5;
call compile preprocessFileLineNumbers "server_traders.sqf";       //Compile trader configs
progressLoadingScreen 1.0;

 

You just need to add another path to wherever your compiles,sqf file is.  It goes between progressLoading Screen 0.4 and 0.5.  You'll see in mine that I actually call two different ones.   When called, each adds to the previous, overwriting any variables, arrays, etc.  that are defined differently so if you have multiple files, make sure you aren't unintentionally overwriting something that was defined in the first.  In my case, the origins\compiles.sqf only contains things needed for the Origins mod - only the things that need to be changed for the new mods or scripts.  Just make sure the missing scripts are actually being called in your compiles.sqf.  Once you see that msg that you added in earlier, you'll at least know it's loading the new compiles.sqf.

Unfortunately this didn't solve my problem, here is my init.sqf and a pic of my mpmission. Please tell me if i have done something wrong.

 

Init - http://pastebin.com/g4XRqMS1

 

Mp Mission - http://gyazo.com/b8c3be6796504a5b6eedbb06c7e03cc8

 

PS: My compiles.sqf is inside my custom folder.

 

Thanks!

Reverse the calling order of the two compiles.sqf:

 

//Load in compiled functions
call compile preprocessFileLineNumbers "\z\addons\dayz_code\init\variables.sqf";                                //Initilize the Variables (IMPORTANT: Must happen very early)
progressLoadingScreen 0.1;
call compile preprocessFileLineNumbers "\z\addons\dayz_code\init\publicEH.sqf";                         //Initilize the publicVariable event handlers
progressLoadingScreen 0.2;
call compile preprocessFileLineNumbers "\z\addons\dayz_code\medical\setup_functions_med.sqf";   //Functions used by CLIENT for medical
progressLoadingScreen 0.4;
call compile preprocessFileLineNumbers "\z\addons\dayz_code\init\compiles.sqf";                         //Compile regular functions

call compile preprocessFileLineNumbers "custom\compiles.sqf";
progressLoadingScreen 0.5;
call compile preprocessFileLineNumbers "server_traders.sqf";                            //Compile trader configs
progressLoadingScreen 1.0;

 

I think what is happening is that you load the changes, and then the changes are overwritten by the original compiles.sqf.  You want your custom one to load after the main compiles.sqf.

Thank you so much! This fixed the Walking dead zombies script! However my admin menu still doesnt appear to work.

 

EDIT: Here is a link to the admin menu i use https://github.com/noxsicarius/Epoch-Admin-Tools

Go through install steps of that admin menu as you haven't done it :)
