IFV and APC configs

[Firefly]

Just wondering about the purpose of this, looking at the config files on github I can't see anything majorly different over standard so my question is what has changed between the Epoch config's for the say the BTR-90 and the standard Arma config. 

 

(other than the option to remove ammo which makes the vehicle pointless since you cannot get ammunition for the 2A42 in game unless you use a rearm script.)

 

Not a criticism just of late patch notes have been rather vague about weapon changes and what has actually been done to them for Epoch.

Apparently, the difference between the Arma 2 files and the Epoch files is that the _DZE vehicles spawn without ammo. It may be possible to use the Arma 2 vehicles in game, but i haven't fully tested it yet. I've been having the same issue with the LAV25_DZE on my server. I'm hoping that the ammo gets scripted in soon. I would assume so, since they added the LAV and BTR-90, which wouldn't make much sense unless there is usauble ammo for them.

Yes its possible to use the default arma 2 vehicles on your server aswell, here is the difference:

 

I'll be using the standard LAV25 as an example, but this counts for all of the vehicles.

 

Regular arma 2 vehicle:

Classname: LAV25

- Spawns with Ammo

- Has Radar

 

_DZ Vehicles:

Classname: LAV25_DZ

- Spawns with Ammo

- Doesn't have Radar

 

_DZE Vehicles:

Classname: LAV25_DZE

- Spawns without Ammo

- Doesn't have Radar

 

 

 

You can pick which vehicle you want based on this selection, and then add the desired classname to the trader.

Thanks for clearing that up Ripsaw
