Meh, seems i need new glasses ^^

Sorry about that guys - I've added a link to the hotfixed 0.7.0 to the first post.

[[frl]myke 14]

Problems seems solved, at least on self-hosted but i don't see a reason why it should be different on dedicated.

Thanks Sickboy.

Thanks Sickboy.[/quote']Glad to hear and NP.

Trying to make the official 0.7.1 release this Friday.

Thanks!

Still CBA's loading screen is clashing with others, like MP Armory etc.

Since the need for the loading screen is much smaller since PostInit was switched to run with Xeno's Killed EH method, I am considering disabling CBA's usage of the screen.

This will cripple the Credits system used by CBA, ACE, ACRE and other 3rd party addons,

however I will try to find a replacement for it.

[[frl]myke 14]

Argh...i'm going mad.

First of all, i'm sorry to bother again (would have sent a PM, Sickboy but...you know ;) ) and i have to apologize: the problems with the armors MP mission weren't caused by CBA. Sickboy, you're allowed to kick my a$$ twice for my stupidity.

After moving countless addon forth and back, i think (aye, sure, i think) i have narrowed it down to CAA1. But i would be happy if anyone could verify this.

[sickboy 13]

NP Myke. I did confirm the MP Armory initialization is affected because CBA's loadingscreen etc, this is a valid issue and solved for Friday release.

Yet perhaps the severity of the effect, as well as some other effects could certainly be caused by other mods, incl CAA1.

Do you use the Hotfix for CAA1 in any case?

Link should be available @ http://ace.dev-heaven.net/wagn/CAA1

As to reaching me personally; I'm available on the dev-heaven Wave;

Aye, the hotfix seems to solve the problem, at least on self hosted. Will report back for dedi asap.

Thanks again and still sorry for the convenience.

:EDITH:

also on dedi server the mission works. Object loading is still a little slow but i blame it on our hardware which isn't that powerful (ever played Domination with 2-3 FPS on the server? ;) ).

Holy sh**, couldn't you find something more complicated? Seems i'm not 1337 enough for this. Ever heard of MSN or ICQ? Or just enabling PM's in this forum? :p;):D

Updated CBA version frontpaged on the Armaholic homepage.

Community Base addons v0.7.1

Mirror updated with the 0.7.1 official release, thanks for informing us :)

[sickboy 13]

FoxHound please remove the release. Thanks for good intentions but this was not supposed to happen (especially not without clear mention of it being a dev-release).

I will create an official 0.7.1 release now.

I can understand re PM/Wave/IM-whatever, but the thread should be fine :D

Hi, I searched the thread and the Devheaven documentation with no result.

What are cba_diagnostic_enable_perf_loop.pbo and cba_diagnostic_enable_logging.pbo?

Should I let them in the @CBA folder?

Should I move them in the Addons folder?

What are they for?

Thanks

Uncovered cause of errors.

Is the message in the upper right corner really necessary?

Ignore me, hadn't noticed that changed. Only appears when you're on a menu screen though, and is quite pretty :)

Just to clarify, are we free to use script_macros_common.hpp in our own functions? And if so, what would the include line be for that?

[sickboy 13]

Sure is, we dropped the loading screen for technical reasons, so the credits (can be used by any 3rd party), need to appear somewhere.

Absolutely

See CBA, and ACE for examples.

Sorry I didn't explain that one too well - I meant in mission development, not inside an addon. Just to use some of the time-savers inside functions. (PARAMS3, PUSH etc.)

I seem to have got it working with the following line, I was just wondering if doing things this way will mess with anything important.

#include "\x\cba\addons\main\script_macros_common.hpp"
