dayz night time

[Punisher]

done that but its overcast so you cant see the full moon or stars so maybe i have to remove fog or sort the overcast issue out im not sure 

[Achmed]

That im not sure on. It could be just the date that needs changing

[Punisher]

ok ill keep playing about with it 

[Bungle]

If you want Punisher I have a DynamicWeatherEffects.sqf that should be "Perfect Weather" with no fog, rain, hail just shine.  :D 

 

And I can show you how to add it in to your mission file.

 

In my Custom Chernarus Pack I have included one that's not quite as extreme but still less fog and not as much rain.. I like the sunshine :D

[Achmed]

Ooh ooh ooh me 2 bungle me 2 :-D i hate the damn rain and fog lol

[Bungle]

To change the weather you need to change the complies.sqf ran to a copy version on server side in the Mission Files / BPO

 

Example.

//call compile preprocessFileLineNumbers "\z\addons\dayz_code\init\compiles.sqf";  //Compile Regular Functions
call compile preprocessFileLineNumbers "compiles.sqf";    //Compile Custom Functions and/or Weather

If you put complies in a folder rename accordingly.

call compile preprocessFileLineNumbers "folder\compiles.sqf"; //Compile Custom Functions and Weather

Down the bottom of the compiles.sqf you will see this.

//Start Dynamic Weather
execVM "\z\addons\dayz_code\external\DynamicWeatherEffects.sqf";
initialized = true;

Change that to this.

//Start Dynamic Weather
execVM "DynamicWeatherEffects.sqf";
initialized = true;

And add this file to your mission folder: https://www.dropbox.com/s/585fo3neffd6cg9/DynamicWeatherEffects.sqf

 

Once again if you put this file in a folder rename accordingly like above.

 

This should be No rain, fog.. pretty much Perfect Gold Coast Australia Weather :D

 

If you want the minimal rain with no fog version just get the one out of the 1.0 pack.

 

Enjoy,

[Punisher]

thanks alot this worked a treat :)

[Punisher]

til a restart :(

[Achmed]

server time or weather?

[Punisher]

Weather pal it was brilliantly clear and sunny when I did it but after the restart the clouds were back and overcast

[Bungle]

Strange.. I don't think I have experienced that.  :(

 

Sorry champ, I am an awesome copy and pastier but not much of a problem solver.

[Achmed]

Sorry champ, I am an awesome copy and pastier but not much of a problem solver.

 

Snap!! lol

 

tbh i have not noticed this but ill keep an eye open, it may be you have an error in your code maybe

[Punisher]

Ill have another look when I get back home and post what I see :-)

[Punisher]

i think i messed up the first couple of instructions from bungle should i move the complies.sqf ?

[Bungle]

Copy the compiles.sqf from your local dayz_code.bpo to your misson and tell your init.sqf to only use this one ONLY

//call compile preprocessFileLineNumbers "\z\addons\dayz_code\init\compiles.sqf"; //Compile Regular Functions
call compile preprocessFileLineNumbers "compiles.sqf"; //Compile Custom Functions and/or Weather

If you have both running it will probably freak out.

[Punisher]

so heres what mine says 

 

//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

progressLoadingScreen 0.5;

call compile preprocessFileLineNumbers "server_traders.sqf"; //Compile trader configs

 

 

and i take it i change it to this ? 

 

 

 

//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 "compiles.sqf"; //Compile Custom Functions and/or Weather

progressLoadingScreen 0.5;

call compile preprocessFileLineNumbers "server_traders.sqf"; //Compile trader configs

 

 

and i take it i change it to this ? 

 

 

sorry in advance if im being stupid 

[Achmed]

Nothing stupid about learning new things.

As long as the new compiles.sqf is in the same folder as the file your calling it from then that looks correct.

[Punisher]

ive moved it to my epoch.chernurus folder in missions pal thats right then ?

[Achmed]

Yes i think so (on my mobile so its hard to keep up with the topics) but as long as your new compiles file is on the same folder as where the init file then you have it correct

[Punisher]

wicked thanks again matt will try this on the test server 

[Punisher]

all done :) cheers guys 

[Bungle]

No Problemo Dude.

By chance I found 27th May (my birthday) 2014 gave me pretty decent full moon nights, which corresponds with a previous post around early June. I also noticed quite a lot more thunder n lightning, which I like. .
