How to overwrite CfgMagazines

[Yarpii™]

So i have been trying to get the overwrite to work for CfgMagazines but so far nothing works.....

i try to change some lines in the folder but so far it has no effect...

so i was wondering if there was a good tutorial about this.. my steps are:

 

i added:  #include "CfgMagazines\CfgMagazines.hpp"

on the bottom of description.ext

then copy the folder CfgMagazines

to the root folder of of client side mission .pbo

simple answer: you can't.

it's a technical thing in arma. cfgmagazines is "hardcoded", if you get what I mean.

 

what are you trying to do?

depending on what it is there might be something to be done about it.

Pretty much echoing what @seelenapparatmentioned you can't do this, it needs to be done at the config level, i.e by epoch or overwatch

What are you trying to achieve exactly?

i wanna change the

dayz_code\Configs\CfgMagazines\Planting.hpp

and then use it

You can request changes via a PR here: https://github.com/EpochModTeam/DayZ-Epoch/blob/master/SQF/dayz_code/Configs/CfgMagazines/Planting.hpp and if accepted it will be in the next update.

but kinda what your try to tell me now is there is for now NO way to change it and use it for the server ?

The only way you can modify that file is If epoch does it for you.

after long period XD i was trying to make the growing different for the weed fields...
i knew i was trying to create or change something and it was not working as i wanted and the only way to make it work was in that file...

And hoped there was a easy way to overwrite it like we do with:

call compile preprocessFileLineNumbers "\z\addons\dayz_code\init\variables.sqf";
call compile preprocessFileLineNumbers "dayz_code\init\variables.sqf";
