Config based trader set up 1.0.4.1

[BetterDeadThanZed]

I haven't looked at the 1.0.4.1 files yet, so I'm wondering if someone could explain this "Config Based Trader set up" I saw in the change log.

 

[NEW] Config based trader setup option that is more performant, however does not track inventory. DZE_ConfigTrader = true; and #include "\dayz_epoch_b\CfgServerTrader\cfgServerTrader.hpp" in description.ext @Fank @Skaronator @vbawol

Got it working but. . . (this is probably a stupid an obvious question but just want to be sure) can I delete my 90 plus pages of trader_data from the DB?
 

[Gr8]

You can delete em. Wont do any good in any lag or desync. I have 3k items

[Gr8]

there is no overpoch hpp... you have to manually add all the weapons you want.

 

Just wanna make sure if anyone is sharing it with community. before i get my hands dirty on it

Are they divided in varients or just all rifles in one category, I would love to get them. Would save alot of my time :) thanks

Feel free to grab my mission file and take a look. My traders are pretty custom but you'll get the idea.

Thanks, I will just have to edit it to suit my categories. I have like ACR, ACR SD, HK417 varients, HK416, etc

With Config based traders can they use the simply use the same categorys or does each one need to be different?

[Gr8]

Yes, you need to give different numbers to each category. Just like trader ID (TID)

Not true at all, traders can use repeating skins for each type (i.e. 4 doctors all using the same skin) and they can all pull from the same Category ID.

I am sorry, i guess i didnt seem to undertand the question right.

[outlander]

Nothing, just the old prices when i get into the trader_menu on Airplane dealer.

Did this ever get fixed? I am having the exact same issue.

Moved the folder CfgServerTrader into Dayz_Epoch_11.Chernarus

Added to my description.ext #include "CfgServerTrader\cfgServerTrader.hpp"

Added to my init.sqf DZE_ConfigTrader = true;

Went into CfgServerTrader/Category/NeutralBuildingSupplies.hpp

and added:

 

class ItemComboLock {

type = "trade_items";

buy[] = {4,"ItemGoldBar10oz"};

sell[] = {1,"ItemGoldBar10oz"};

};

under both class Category_508 AND class Category_662

Saved it all, restarted server, and no new items, still looking at SQL and not config.

Any ideas? I've searched the issue and every time it seems to be unresolved and no one posts followups.

Cheers,

**EDIT**

I'm not sure, but I have a hunch this could be something to do with it:

It seems this calls "player_traderMenuHive.sqf" while I believe config traders uses "player_traderMenuConfig"

I've switched the files and will test later. Could be way off so any other help is appreciated.

**EDIT 2**

The problem mentioned in the previous edit was the culprit. Working fine now.

I'm slogging through converting all my Epoch Overwatch Origins traders to CFGTrader and think I may have the same issue.  Are you saying I have to back out the faster-trading changes?  Or is there a way to get it to work with the faster-trading?

 

Thanks,

Bob

You need to point them to new versions in your mission.pbo.

 

I believe cfgServerTrader.hpp still points to the pbo instead of your files unless you change the lines in it.

 

Im new, I understood how to put everything in but the prices remain unchanged. Can you explain to me (like im 5) what point them to the new versions means and how it should look? Thanks!!

[Just_R]

It uses static configs for pricing and items on traders instead of the database. It is very fast because of this but does not track inventory. 

Faster yes, but one question:  Does the .HPP files only load into memory when access by the player? and then releases back?

[Saije]

Hey guys, wondering if anyone could help me figure out something. I recently installed Dynamic Traders and Config traders. but now none of my traders work. they dont have their scroll menu any more for any of them... nothing in the rpt seems to point to an issue...

any help would be awesome. i been stuck on this all day.
