Switching Maps

[DrejXArmy]

How do I go about switching maps, now that Epoch 0304 supports more? Is there a file I can change or?

 

Thanks.

Change the mission.pbo that is listed in your config.cfg

Change your launch parameters to launch the new map

Delete your old database

Launch the server :)

[DrejXArmy]

Ok, so here -

// MISSIONS CYCLE (see below) (epoch.Altis, epoch.Stratis, epoch.Chernarus, epoch.Bornholm)
class Missions
{
    class Epoch {
        template = epoch.Altis; // DO NOT CHANGE THIS, IT WILL BREAK YOUR SERVER
        difficulty = "veteran";    // difficulty settings: veteran == NORMAL, mercenary == HARDCORE
    };
};

 

I change the template to epoch.Australia ?

[Richie]

Yes, remember that Australia requires all in arma terrain pack, also remember to add the keys, i missed that part

[DrejXArmy]

Ok, so I changed the config to Australia, copyed all the keys from the EpochMod Server Zip into my Servers Key folder, I deleted the database and re-launched it.

 

I have downloaded AiA for my PC, but do I need it installed for the server?

 

Also, does the map get downloaded for everyone else that has 0304, or do they need to download it as well?

 

THanks

[Richie]

You need AiA TP on the server but you can just use the lite version, all clients will need all addons, so yes they need @Australia and @allinarmaterrainpack

[DrejXArmy]

Ok thanks, lets see how it goes.

Ok I am getting thios error -

19:10:20 Missing addons detected:
19:10:20   aia_chernarus_config
19:10:20   australia
19:10:20 Warning Message: You cannot play/edit this mission; it is dependent on downloadable content that has been deleted.aia_chernarus_config, australia

 

In my root I got -

@AllInArmaTerrainPack

@Australia

@Epoch

@epochhive

 

In my Keys folder I got -

a3

aia_tp_2015_01_01

aia_tp_lite_2015_01_01

ausisland001

epoch0304

 

In my config, I got -

// MISSIONS CYCLE (see below) (epoch.Altis, epoch.Stratis, epoch.Chernarus, epoch.Bornholm)
class Missions
{
    class Epoch {
        template = epoch.Australia; // DO NOT CHANGE THIS, IT WILL BREAK YOUR SERVER
        difficulty = "veteran";    // difficulty settings: veteran == NORMAL, mercenary == HARDCORE
    };
};

 

 

What else am I missing? Am I missing something onthe command line?

 

Thanks.

[DrejXArmy]

I got part of it, I added this in command -

 

-mod=@Epoch;@EpochHive;@Australia;@AllInArmaTerrainPack

 

But now, I get a weird error -

Epoch Starting Aram3 Epcoh Server, Versions 0.3.0.3

 

The I get a pop up saying Server not Ready Error 03

[DrejXArmy]

Ok got it figured out. Some reason, the Game Server Provider (GDP) didnt get the right client install. @Epoch folder still had all the 0303 files. Removed them all and place in mine, works great now.

So in order to play australia what keys would I need to take from where and put where? TY

EDIT: nvm answered my own question by reading further

-mod=@Epoch;@EpochHive;@Australia;@AllInArmaTerrainPack

If you change that line to read -mod=@Epoch;@Australia;@AllInArmaTerrainPack -servermod=@EpochHive

players will not see a red dot next to @EpochHive (it will be hidden) in the lower right corner of the launcher window. This works for any serverside mod that players can't download.

i read that the terrain packs need to be before australia in the parameters. now i just get a 'warning prenold: object format blah blah blah e76_shop_multi1.p3d' several sources indicated that corrupt data was the problem and i have since redownloaded all @modfiles and replaced them including .pbo's in my mpmissions. now i read on the workshop that there is a final australia update that isnt available through steam yet, could this be the problem, that epoch updated for newer australia while i am using older australia?
