Epoch + ARMA 1.68 compatible?

[RainbowPilot 0]

Does anyone know if Epoch is compatible with the ARMA 1.68 update?  I run a private server that I host from a personal machine for my friends to play on.  I'm curious if I'll need to wait for epoch mod or epoch server updates or if I can just update the server and start playing.

Thanks for any help!

Yes, it is compatible with a few small changes that vbawol has already made

Thank you for the reply!  Just one quick question to clarify.  Will I need to download both the client and server from the updated github for compatibility?

Just make the changes in this 3 files Inside your mission on your server

The metal gates at the bases were no longer open.

[Ghostrider-GRG 311]

After Arma 1.68 updates, one is unable to unlock the metal doors at bases.

Exile experienced similar issues with this since the change to dynamic simulation in 1.68. They have an official workaround fix for it in place which has resolved the issue temporarily until a better solution is found but, not sure I should repost here...

I am sure that VBWOL and He-Man will get it sorted out soon.

If you apply the changes mentioned above then all should be well again.

We have no problems with the Gates.

Have you scripts, that disable the Simulation on the Gates / Doors (indestructible scripts or something like that).

Before the Update, "enablesimulationglobal = false" had no effect on Buildings. After the Update, it has.

Have you started the Server with x64? Then you also have to take the new dll's from the experimental!

[Sp4rkY 89]

...and don´t forget the beserver_x64.dll.
If you want to use BEC, then also copy your existing BEServer.cfg to beserver_x64.cfg.

 

cheers

I changed these 3 files as mentioned above. The gate does not open. If you remove them and put new ones - they work. But after restart all repeats.

On server UseIndestructible = true; 

I also use protection against the destruction of buildings from InfiStar.

Disable it in Infistar!

You don't need both and the Infistar Code disables the Simulation

Ok, I'll do it. Thanks for the answer.

But keep in mind that in stock config, the Gates and Doors are not indestructible.

If you also want them indestructible:

Spoiler

ExceptedBaseObjects[] = { // Not Indestructible, also if in a Class of IndestructibleBaseObjects
//	"CinderWallGarage_EPOCH",
//	"WoodLargeWallDoorL_EPOCH",
//	"WoodLargeWallDoor_EPOCH",
//	"WoodWall4_EPOCH"
	};

I understand. And can I add them there?

[He-Man 422]

See above.

Just comment out the ExceptedBaseObjects

Re-stalled the server this morning still the same.

And my server began to stop periodically - a message appears that ARMA stopped working. The server does not restart itself.

We run the Server @32 bit atm without problems.

x64 we will test in the next days.

I also run the x32 server. On the x64 test server, the player does not load completely.
