Mission File Name Change?

[WGC GeekGarage]

Alright so I've had a few servers hosted many different places, but i finally pulled myself together and rented a dedicated server at OVH. Got everything up and running, but every time i switch between our server I have to DL a new mission file. The reason being the name of the mission file is "__cur_mp.pbo" Is there a config file i can change some where to fix this so i can give them a custom name for each server when my players download them??

no one on this forum knows what is defining the mission.pbo name on a server?? Just want to be able to set it for each of my dedicated serves...

config.cfg file sets the mission name

    class Mission1

    };

};

Also tested with:

 

template = "wreckingsrv1.chernarus";

 

same result __cur_mp.pbo

So no one can explain why i'm getting that file name for both my servers mission file? or am i just shot of some information you need before you can answer my question? (yes i googled this subject for hours without end)

In your MPMISSIONS folder you will have a folder that may look something like "instance_11_Chernarus". 

 

This is where your mission contents are.

 

In your CONFIG you see 

class Missions
{
class Mission1
{
template = "Wrecking_srv_1.Chernarus";
difficulty="veteran";
};

If you want your mission pbo to be named the same as the template name you have to perform two steps.

 

1. Change the name of the folder inside your MPMISSIONS to reflect the name of the template in your CONFIG.

2. Pack that folder into a PBO within the MPMISSIONS folder.  (If you do not pack it arma will auto pack it for you into a TMP folder and name it __CUR like you are seeing).

 

By naming your instances differently (assuming you have more than one running on your dedicated) your players will not have to re-download the mission file each time they move between servers.

 

Thanks!

That just changes the briefing name  - Like when you press ESC button and is at the bottom of the menu =)
