Pvpmedic Posted January 2, 2017 Report Share Posted January 2, 2017 Hey all noob/beginner here to epoch. I have managed to get my dedicated server running. Now I am trying to figure out how I can edit the map, add missions, ect... I know someone will reply with a post in the wiki here I have read everything and I still cannot figure it out. Can someone please please create a video on how to add buildings and missions. I have the e3den mod installed and the epoch client installed in my game and when I load it I am unable to select any epoch maps. So I just choose the atlis map which is completely blank. I add some buildings just to test it out then I go to tools and export to sqf which I understand goes to my clipboard but what do I do with it after that. If someone has time can they make a updated video on how to do all this would be awesome. Thank you, Pvpmedic Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
He-Man Posted January 2, 2017 Report Share Posted January 2, 2017 Hi, what do you mean with any "Epoch Maps"? Epoch uses default maps and spawn in some additional Buildings on Server start. So it is right to select a default map. - Unpack your mission file (epoch.altis.pbo) with pbo manager: http://www.armaholic.com/page.php?id=16369 - create a file in the root of the unpacked mission file "init.sqf" - insert in this init.sqf: Spoiler if (isserver) then { [] execVM "mybuildings.sqf; }; - create a new file in the root of the mission "mybuildings.sqf" - paste the exported content from E3DEN in this file - Safe both files and repack the epoch.altis folder to epoch.altis.pbo (with pbo manager) Now the Server should load these buildings on server startup Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pvpmedic Posted January 2, 2017 Author Report Share Posted January 2, 2017 Ok still doesnt make since to me. After I unpack my epoch.altis.pbo there is nothing that says init.sqf. Am I suppose to make a file called init.sqf? If so how do I make a sqf file? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pvpmedic Posted January 2, 2017 Author Report Share Posted January 2, 2017 Ok so i figured out how to make .sqf files. So I unback my epoch.altis.pbo. Which has: epoch_code epoch_config config.bin description.ext mission.sqm treeView.txt I then created a init.sqf and put it in the the root which would add it to my list above. I added your code you gave me. Then I created a mybuildings.sqf and added my code from the eden editor mod which i export. After I do this and start my server you cant make it past the loading screen you get stuck no one can make it to my server lobby for epoch.

He-Man Posted January 2, 2017 Report Share Posted January 2, 2017 Then please post your rpt log from your Server. Should be in the "SC" folder. The best way is to paste it to pastebin and only give us the link: http://pastebin.com/ EDIT: Sorry, my mistake. Add this into your init.sqf (I forgot one ") Spoiler if (isserver) then { [] execVM "mybuildings.sqf"; }; Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Pvpmedic Posted January 2, 2017 Author Report Share Posted January 2, 2017 Ohh i think i might have found it. Must have accidentally added something into that mission.sqm. Met me try it one sec Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
He-Man Posted January 2, 2017 Report Share Posted January 2, 2017 I think the problems are not the "new" files. Seems, there is something wrong in your misson.sqm. Can you upload your epoch.altis.pbo anywhere? Or give me your server ip, so I can try to connect? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pvpmedic Posted January 2, 2017 Author Report Share Posted January 2, 2017 Ok sweet so the couple items i placed for this test showed up on live server. Now can you explain to me how to add ai and make missions on the map? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
He-Man Posted January 2, 2017 Report Share Posted January 2, 2017 Hehe no, I can't. Here are some really good mission scripts, that have cost days / weeks of work. I don't think, you can make it better without good experience in scripting. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
