how to increase general loot spawn gtx server

[robbiedarza]

Hello there, I am trying to help my brother increase the general spawn rate of weapons, loot, etc using gtx server running an overpoch chernarus server.

 

We have the usual admin control panel and access to pbo files and stuff but its been a while for me and I cant remember how!

 

Also vehicles are spawning way off outside the map!!

 

Any help would be brilliant

 

Many thanks

Add a custom loot table to increase the spawn rate of weapons, loot, etc. Open the cfgLoot.hpp and increase the chance for what you want.

 

Example: 2% chance to spawn

sniperrifleser7[] = {{"USSR_cheytacm200", 0.02}, {"USSR_cheytacm200_sd", 0.02}};

Change to 50% chance to spawn.

sniperrifleser7[] = {{"USSR_cheytacm200", 0.5}, {"USSR_cheytacm200_sd", 0.5}};

There is a lot of post with custom overpoch loot tables on these forums and how to install them. Use the search function.

 

The problem with vehicles spawning outside of the map.

 

Two things to check

 

MPmission\init.sqf

 

Find this

dayz_MapArea = 14000;
dayz_minpos = -1;
dayz_maxpos = 16000;

Defines the map area

 

MPmission\mission.sqm

 

Search for this

class Markers
{
  items=23;
  class Item0
  {
   position[]={7839.6055,381.33774,8414.7324};
   name="center";
   type="Empty";
  };

Marks the center of the map.

 

This is for chernarus and yours should be the same. If all fails reinstall the server.
