co30 Hohei Evolution 2 - the Evolution must go on!

[JuggernautOfWar 1]

If this revive bug is truly resolved can you please upload a hotfix? My server and all the players on it would be tremendously grateful.

[Psychobastard 136]

Ok, i will upload a hotfix at dev-heaven until the next two days. Maybee i send you the hotfix version first to test it before i release them.

[JuggernautOfWar 1]

Sounds like a good idea. I doubt you want a possibly buggy version online maybe deterring potential clients. PM me or email me with a download if you like. Thank you Psycho.

hi psycho,

is it possible to include a death message system similar to benny warfare? in warfare it is extremely fun to see the messages in the lower left corner when you shoot someone or hit a tank.

regard and thanks r.

[Psychobastard 136]

Can you show me a screenshoot? I don't know this.

[JuggernautOfWar 1]

The Russian engineers on Chernarus still cannot build a FARP.

[Psychobastard 136]

The Russian engineers on Chernarus still cannot build a FARP.

Same problem like bug #30123?

Thanks for the update! Great seeing developers so committed to their projects. Keep it up!

How does it work getting bonus points as a pilot? I've hauled people around before in Blackhawks and never get points for it.

How does it work getting bonus points as a pilot? I've hauled people around before in Blackhawks and never get points for it.

You must transport other players from the airfield into the battlefield. You got for every player who's left your chopper (chopper must be moveable, not destroyed) one bonus point. Minimal transport distance is 1000m. If you made a airtaxi over 5000m you got 2 points per passenger. It works only for players (no AI) and if your passengers board your chopper at the airfield. I don't know exactly if you got a message for this. You can test it with other players and have a look at the scoreboard before takeof and after your passengers drop out. It must work with every little bird and every lift chopper. (no attack choppers)

I want this feature cause in ArmA1 nearly every player want to be a pilot and bring players into the battlefield. Since A2 nobody do this. With this bonus i will give the payers an encouragement to do this.

regards

[HazJ 1289]

Thanks for the update, looking forward to sidemissions still :D. Maybe increase the bonus point or have a parameter for it as 1 point is not hard to get really :).

[Psychobastard 136]

If other players realize that you are a skilled pilot you become with no problems a fully occupied blackhawk on a public server. That let you earn (on a short distance transport) more points as freeing a town and be there!

[r4m0n 1]

hi psycho,

i have few questions:

1. is it possible to change the number of ai available for a player? from 12 to 2 for example?

2. where do i set the revive / respawn time. i like to have 30sec for example.

3. is it possible to limit the aircrafts to a pilot only? i mean in a way that a player has to choose a pilot slot in the screen where all players have to choose their character.

4. i have added a second c130 to your mission. somehow none of the c 130 is respawning. this sometimes also happens to other aircraft. sometimes they spawn sometimes not?!

thanks and regards

1. is it possible to change the number of ai available for a player? from 12 to 2 for example?

No. The limitation changes with your actual rank. Maybee an option for further versions.

2. where do i set the revive / respawn time. i like to have 30sec for example.

This isn't possible in Hohei Evo. Also it's possible to make a new lobby setting for this.

3. is it possible to limit the aircrafts to a pilot only? i mean in a way that a player has to choose a pilot slot in the screen where all players have to choose their character.

This is theoriticallly possible. But this is a completely other way of limitation in front of the actual ranking system. Caused by the fact that the ranking system make the carachter of a Hohei Evolution i don't want to change this.

I hope you understand this.

4. i have added a second c130 to your mission. somehow none of the c 130 is respawning. this sometimes also happens to other aircraft. sometimes they spawn sometimes not?!

For this i need more infos. (build version, evo version, witch exact air vehicles, your arma version cause some players play with patch 1.59...) Some air vehicles didn't respawn if they where deserted somewhere on the map, other did.

If you think you found a bug please make a ticket at dev-heaven with all needed informations for me.

Hi,

after a bigger break of been tired to work on Hohei Evo i've been back to do something on it. Have a look there... https://dev-heaven.net/projects/hohei-evo/activity

At the moment most work go to network optimizations and improvments of handling some threads (after patch 1.62 give me us the tools to do it). So the gamer won't see or feel the changes.

If i monitor the dedicated server with the newest WIP versions the traffic is dropped significantly. This give me the space to implement other things without loosing the habit fashion of gameplay.

If anyone suggest some stuff for a upcomming release is it the right time now. (before i lost the just and the time aggain :p ) Excluded from the suggestions are the sidemissions!

You are awesome! Welcome back.

[Cantose 1]

Howdy all,

Having a great time with the mission! I have a few n00b questions about the Lobby settings. I looked and searched all over, and came up dry.

Initially, I can see all of the settings on the map in game, but even as an admin I can not modify them.

I can also see the settings defined in the descriptions.ext file if I unpack the .pbo. Is that the only way to change those settings?

Is it possible to modify them in the server.cfg file? If it is possible, is there an easy list of Vars I can use to make those changes?

Thanks!

[Psychobastard 136]

You can only change these settings before the map is starting. If you be in the lobby (where you can choose your game character) press on "Parameter" to found the lobby settings. If you be an admin you can make your own settings.

The release of the new version is not far away. I need only some last gameplay tests to confirm that all works fine before i release.

Hi there!

New to mp ArmA and just started playing evolution today, because the server I played on (with my buddies) had some silly settings, I hosted my own, but I have some questions;

How do I disable enemy aircraft? On the server I played on first, there were no enemy aircraft.

What is the difference between red and blue version?

How do I activate a sidemission?

Thank you for a great mission, had lots of fun.

Thank you for a great mission, had lots of fun.

latest version (blue) is also bugged. You cannot see the text added in the mission. Like "headquarters" (in scrollmenu) or "Save Loadout". You also cannot see any text at all in the headquarters menu.

Please fix ^^

Also I cannot find how to select "Spec Ops".

[Psychobastard 136]

Per Lobby Settings before you start the game.

What is the difference between red and blue version?

RED ==> You are a russian or a Takiban

BLUE ==> You are USMC or US-Army

How do I activate a sidemission?

Sidemissions are not implemented yet.

latest version (blue) is also bugged. You cannot see the text added in the mission. Like "headquarters" (in scrollmenu) or "Save Loadout". You also cannot see any text at all in the headquarters menu.

Please fix ^^

This bug aren't reproduced by any other user until today, so i think this isn't a bug but a problem by your host engine or whatever. You can send me the server & client .rpt to have a look on it.

Also I cannot find how to select "Spec Ops".

Not every versions support Spec-Ops slots. There are 8 different versions.

If you think you have a bug or not the original version you can send me feedback via dev-heaven.net.

can you explain how you fixed the player marker system on the map? the 1.62 patch broke ours quite badly so it no longer updates for JIP.
