Adding traders to custom safe zones.

[liamR]

Hey people,

ive been looking all round the web trying to find videos on how to add traders to my own safezone. All of these videos are outdated and have different file directory's so its impossible to follow, is there anyone who knows how to do this?

open your arma2oa editor 3D. ( i guess you know how to use it) place your trader save the file. open the mission saved. take his class name, his position coords and direction.

Now:

open ...\@DayZ_Epoch_Server\addons\dayz_server\traders\chernarus11.sqf

Now if u wanna give this trader a items menu to sell/bought..

take a look here:

Note: if ure using coins you have done 80% of the work in the guode from above. Just open your chernarus11.sqf (the one where all traders are defined with categorys to sell and bought and add your own)

Umm, thankyou for the reply, i dont know what arma2oa 3D editor is, and also cant i just duplicate a trader and put it where ever i want to save time, instead of putting each item into the trader? @jaundayz

1-open ...\MPMissions\DayZ_Epoch_1.Chernarus\scripts\traders\server_traders.sqf

at top add lines in blue:

Spoiler

serverTraders = ["BanditW1_DZ ","Tanny_PMC","Profiteer4","Dr_Hladik_EP1"];

bellow paste:

//Custom Vendor
menu_BanditW1_DZ = [
    [["Attachments",693],["Ammunition",478],["Currency and gems",1100],["Clothes",476],["Weapons",477]],
    [],
    "neutral"
];

changes for your owns categorys.

Recomend you change the trader class.. cuz if i remember well BanditW1_Dz is also used as character for players.. then if someone choose this model gonna have a trader menu over his body.
