problem with execvm

[umfufu]

This is a line in the RPT

Scripting function 'bis_fnc_execvm' is not allowed to be remotely executed

this is a call from a added part of me to mission.sqm , but cant solve this

Hope someone can give some info

Why do you remoteexec esecvm clientside? This is extreme dangerous!

Define a function serverside and remoteexec this function from the client. 

[umfufu]

Its a closed server and its used to spawn zombies

As said its a gamelogic on the map ,  init="null=[] execVM ""cos\cosInit.sqf"";";  from this post

Why does 90% of the mods/addons have it in the install guide to add a execVM line to the init.sqf ?

i have many mods on my arma2 epoch server with execVM lines in the init.sqf

Exevm is there to allow it to well exe it helps out alot to make the code work but if you no what your doing you can use a server side pv to send to the client so the client can see your code

Execvm is no Problem, but not execvm via remoteexec. What exactly do you want? 

Execvm execute a local sqf file

Execvm via remoteexec executes a given Function on a remote client or the Server.

Edit: Sorry, misunderstood your plan. Your first post sounds, as you tried to remoteexec a function given from the client on the Server.

For as far i know it aint a remote exec

i just put it in mission.sqm 

        class Item104
        {
            dataType="Logic";
            class PositionInfo
            {
                position[]={17519.039,15.683965,13059.484};
            };
            name="server";
            init="if(isServer) then {null=[] execVM ""cos\cosInit.sqf"";}";

            //init="null=[] execVM ""cos\cosInit.sqf"";";    --former 370
            id=206;
            type="Logic";
        };

 

Well point is it worked once , now the same problem

even after disabling   epochah and battleeye  bare in mind this is for a closed (friends) server

and we just like to see zombies as apart of A3  like old days(z) , not as a challenge but more as never lower your guard

(funny part is we also do a statusbar that uses execvm inside init.sqf but that works and no remark in the .RPT)

There's something else going on here. I have exactly the same line (though I use name SERVER (capitalized) and everything works fine on my server...

Do make sure that that ID is unique though

O

[umfufu]

Yeah upped ID from 205 to 206 (even a 500 usesless due to the fact the cos/cosinit.sqf is the only add to mission.sqm)

But  no zombies , well gonna try it for the last time now if it aint working then maybe some sleep and a new day may help

 

Well found the culprit (no sleep needed tho ) while copy/paste also copied some wierd char not visualble (ascii 135 ???) 

after the last server-update 3.8.0 , did a total renew adding to cfgremoteexec.hpp with the wierd char

Now a refresh of cfgremoteexec.hpp from the 3.7.0 descrition.ext and voila after spawn happily was group hugged by a dozen of zombies

ager to slap me of the atlis map and beyond

So this 1 is solved , and always do a compare on the working former and failing newer it might saves u a headache

FYI, I removed all the CfgRemoteExec stuff for Ryan's Zombies after 0.3.7 (animations worked after those changes) so I didn't have them in my description.ext anymore. I don't have them and everything is working fine so you may want to remove them so you've one less change to remember when 0.3.9 comes out :) (assuming the RemoteExec stuff was related to the COS/Zombie stuff

[umfufu]

I moved them from description.ext to cfgremoteexec.hpp , not sure if needed to todo so (idd no mention in any .RPT file)

As such they dont hurt and maybe in time the're ready for removal , but time will tell
