Is it possible to take something from an @mod and put it into epoch.map?


SteYou2014

Question

I want to add 1 of the c 130's from this @mod to my server ... just to have a c 130 on there like in arma 2:

 

http://steamcommunity.com/workshop/filedetails/?id=375880426

 

Unfortunately, the mod isn't listed on A3 Launcher and I'd rather not run with unlisted mods.  I remember a while ago, while researching "deploy bike" someone mentioned it's possible to just add the bicycle to his epoch.map.pbo and have his players download it that way instead of requiring an extra mod (at the time "emod").

 

It is possible to take for instance only the "C-130 J"'s pbo from the mod above and somehow have my players download it automatically from epoch.map.pbo instead of requiring them to downloading the entire @mod which is not listed on A3 Launcher? 

 

Thank you for any help you can offer :huh:

Hi, Richie.  I think you misunderstood my post. I never mentioned adding anything to @Epoch folder.

 

"I remember a while ago, while researching "deploy bike" someone mentioned it's possible to just add the bicycle to his epoch.map.pbo and have his players download it that way instead of requiring an extra mod (at the time "emod")."

 

 

ie - when players log onto the server, it automatically downloads epoch.map.pbo (let's assume for this question it's epoch.Chernarus.pbo) from the server. This guy suggested it may be possible to have the vehicle mod stored in epoch.Chernarus.pbo somehow (it was a really small size mod: like 3kb) ... so the players don't have to download an @mod (as my OP suggests the problem is that this @mod is not listed on A3 Launcher).

 

My question was asking if this possible since I vaguely remember him mentioning it ... though it was long ago enough that I can't remember who that person was to ask him specifically (and searching didn't help me find the post I read).

You can't, cfgVehicles and few other similar classes are strictly addon configs and can't be used with mission config. You can twist it however you like it, but in the end your clients will have to download the .pbo file, no matter where you put it.

if you actually add the @masvehicles mod don't you automatically get the C 130 in ? I understand that Mas Vehicles mod contain most if not all the Arma 2 vehicles????

 

I may be wrong but worth to check, no?
