Hey all,

 

Really new at scripting etc here. I tried installing the DZMS on my server but when joining the client seems to stall out at the "waiting for server authentication to start" message. The message will disappear and the counter in the bottom right corner keeps counting up. Any thoughts?

 

Thanks!

 

By the way, I am running 103718 on the NAPF map

Make sure it doesn't say that server_monitor.sqf was not found in your RPT.

If that is in there, it means your PBO packer corrupted your PBO, or the prefix needs adjusted.

I'm not seeing those issues myself, and you're the first person to report and issue.

If more people come back with the same problem, I'll address it, otherwise I don't have any intention to update DZMS if it's not broken.

If you have an RPT of it happening I'd be interested in seeing it.

[Rivin]

Oh I'm sure it's something I did lol.

Where do I find RPT? I'm still finding my way around the server files etc.

 

Thanks for the quick reply!

 

EDIT: I recompiled and the server started up normally. Missions have not spawned yet but I think that is normal. ty for the help!

And here it's the DZMSMinTimer.sqf

And here it's the DZMSMinTimer.sqf

 

 

You're missing part of the undefined fix.

Here is the commit. Make sure you have those two lines in your DZMSInit.sqf.

Make sure you have the newest copy off github.

Looks like its looking for a skill array that doesn't exist.

[Ventana]

Thanks, will do.

 

EDit:  Yep, that was the problem.

[DudesNightmare]

could i request some assistance on this?

 

i use epoch 1.0.5.1 and 112555 with over watch.

 

i added over watch weapons to the ai and crates.

 

only the crates spawn the ai do not, backpacks where the ai would spawn are on the ground.

 

here is my rpt

You need the newest version of DZMS here:

https://github.com/SMVampire/DZMS-DayZMissionSystem/archive/master.zip

 

There was an update to Arma 2 recently that messed up some stuff that was working fine before.

[DudesNightmare]

hmm i thought i had the most recent version, seeing that i downloaded it today but never the less. 

 

i downloaded it again

 

still no ai and lots of error messages

 

https://www.dropbox.com/s/uo3kbqc758e4g45/arma2oaserver.RPT

 

^ this is the new rpt

Did you replace the ExtConfig folder too? looks like it is missing an array in DZMSWeaponCrateList.sqf or similar.

[DudesNightmare]

i did i replaced all and just readded the overwatch weapons to the config here

im sure it is something very simple i am doing wrong.

Might be possible you have an overwatch classname wrong then, which would cause the error you have originally.

[TheHound]

How would I go about making the markers for missions not centered, basically have the missions appear somewhere randomly inside the marker?

ok i think i figgured it out i had a bad class name like you said, so im going through each one and making sure it works.

 

also in the crate config dzmssnipers was named as primary, so i had 2 primary sets. 

 

thx for the help.

 

:D

You'd have to go into DZMSMajMarker, DZMSMinMarker, and DZMSMarkerLoop and set it up to offset the marker.

[ATRealMaster]

Is there a way to change the loot in the Boxes? I tried to edit "DZMSWeaponCrateList" But it didnt work, there are no guns in the boxes now, just a backpack and a grenade.

[TheHound]

Thanks for the response Vampire, and ATRealMaster the only times I've had that happen is if one of the classnames I added was incorrect or if I messed up the array by not adding a comma, or an extra space or whatever.

[TheVampire]

Yes there is, by modifying DZMSWeaponCrateList. Just because you broke it doesn't mean it didn't work. :P

If you post it, I'll point out your code error.
