Thanks, with the 1.4 version I am able to save and load mission which is a great step forward. I have found that on the mission set up you cannot touch any other parameters apart from "Load Save". If you do so the save won't load and the mission will start from scratch.

Found a bug, also. After the load of the save dragging the ammoboxes works no longer, and that's a pitty. A fix for that would be nice.

[giallustio 770]

Are you sure? Because i tested on a dedi and it works...When you load the game remember to set on "Yes" the =BTC= Logistic param, the save game don't save the ammoboxes inside vehicles atm (it will be possible in the version 1.5). You can't change param like the date, type of units, money...

Hope you get it works :)

I can confirm all seem to work fine. There are certain parameters you can alter on load, and certain you can't.

[giallustio 770]

Good! Testing new version 1.5!

[icebreakr 3159]

Are there any plans for Lingor / Duala non-ACE version? We were hyped to test out the mission yesterday and to our dissapointment there was no no-ACE versions of these two islands in the pack.

[giallustio 770]

Probably i need more time ;)

I'll try to add them in the next vesion ;)

[giallustio 770]

Version 1.5 released

- Added Duala & Lingor non-ACE version (Sorry IB i don't have time to test them)

- Added IEDs

- Added civilian & IEDs param

- Minor fixes

Tell me if you find any bug, so i can fix it!

Let me know if you have some good idea to improve the mission and what you think about the new version!

Any feedback is appreciated!

Have fun guys!

Great work Giallustio. I wait long for a saving possibilty on a dedicated server.

I only have a small problem. I can't load a savegame, if I built an "ACE magicbox" before saving.

I think I found the source of this problem.

In the savegame of the RPT file I see the following:

[

"ACE_EmptyBox",

[8000.78,1802.34,0],

[[

"PipeBomb","Mine","MineE","ACE_Bandage","ACE_Bodybag","ACE_POMZ_M","ACE_MON50_M" and so on

at the end of this I see the quantity of each class in the ammobox:

[2,2,2,2,2,2,2,2,2,2,2,2,2,2,2,2,2,2,2,2,2,2,2,2,2,2 and so on

I use many addons and the ACE magicbox contains the classes of all weapons and misc of all used addons.

In my case I counted over 600 classes in the ACE magicbox, but the line in the savegame with the quantity shows only 1024 characters.

With the number and the comma in addition, there should be over 1200 characters in this line.

In result 1024 characters in a line for saving is in my case not enough.

Can you find a solution for this problem or is it maybe an ArmA engine problem?

Thanks.

[giallustio 770]

Thank you for the feedback! :)

Did you download the last version? Because i fixed this problem in the preovius update...Let me know ;)

[viper4aa 0]

You are right, I tested with Version 1.4.

Feature Request:

I often play a game session with 3 or 4 friends only and it would be great if there were the possibility that a squadleader could buy some AI teammates to fill his squad.

Is there any chance to implement this?

Thanks.

[giallustio 770]

No atm sorry...We're starting a new campaign based on this mission and my free time is about...0... :)

You can add it by your self...I try to help you:

A very easy way it's to add an action to the flag, so in the init_player.sqf add something like this:

if (rank player == "CAPTAIN") then 
{
_flag = nearestObject [bTC_start_location_selected, "FlagCarrierCore"];
_container = _flag addaction [("<t color=""#ED2744"">") + ("Buy rifleman $ 100") + "</t>","=BTC=_addAction.sqf",[[],{"US_Soldier_EP1" createUnit [getPos player, group player, ""];}],0,false,false,"","BTC_money > 100"];
};

A more "elegant" idea (what basically i'll do) it's to add a little dialog ;)

I hope it helps you :) Have fun!

[icebreakr 3159]

Grazie mille Giallustio!

[giallustio 770]

Figurati :) Grazie a te per le isole ;)

I don't test them IceBreakr, so if you find any bugs let me know ;)

Giallustio, Sorry for bad English..

1) in your version 1.8 may not work Rally Point.

2) when will the version for the island Ovaron?

3) after death can not hire AI.

4) why in this version there is no Life time?

5) How's my idea: add all the weapons in one box? and that for a long time to install them.

6) I still could not figure out how to save the game and then download it.

[giallustio 770]

Giallustio, Sorry for bad English..

1) in your version 1.8 may not work Rally Point.

Fixed!

2) when will the version for the island Ovaron?

When I'll get no more errors in the 1.8

3) after death can not hire AI.

Fixed!

4) why in this version there is no Life time?

Are you sure? It works for me. Make sure you activate the wounding system in the param

5) How's my idea: add all the weapons in one box? and that for a long time to install them.

Not planned sorry!

6) I still could not figure out how to save the game and then download it.

Did you follow my instructions?

Re-download the file and let me know if you find more errors ;)

Hello Giallustio. Thank you for the quick response, you can answer a few more questions?

1.Can I adjust the UAV, that he did not have a weapon or to replace it with Satellite view

2.Can I make the recruitment of soldiers was only available on the base?

3.Can one destination on the map provide such a red circle? (Image from)

4.Add these units to map version Ovaron?

5.I hope you are not tired issues ...))

6.Can I combine a box with cables, backpacks in one?

8.How about to add in teams of snipers? (skin sniper camouflage)

9.Can I put a kind of 3 persons only in vehicles?

Edited September 25, 2012 by dimaS1k
add 9.

[giallustio 770]

Before the answer a quick question:

What's your skill in the editor and in scripting language?

By the way i don't understand number 3 and 9

[DmitryJDM 1]

skill..

Yesterday did not know how to use it :)

but today was able to purchase equipment to edit the menu, added the Russian tanks

I do not know how to explain to you 3 item in the Russian language is clear, but the translator seems to offer twists

[giallustio 770]

1.Can I adjust the UAV, that he did not have a weapon or to replace it with Satellite view

Are you sure mate? I tried it and worked very well...About that script, i don't know it and i can't help you!

2.Can I make the recruitment of soldiers was only available on the base?

Sure! Add the action to the flag instead of the player! You can do it in the init_player.sqf

3.Can one destination on the map provide such a red circle? (Image from)

I don't get this one sorry!

4.Add these units to map version Ovaron?

Yep, sure! You want them playable or as opfor? In the first case you have to replace the units in the editor; in the second case you have to create a new array in the =BTC=_definitions.sqf and add them to the enemy units param in the description.ext

6.Can I combine a box with cables, backpacks in one?

You have to script them...Is it that so important? Not that easy!

8.How about to add in teams of snipers? (skin sniper camouflage)

Just add 'em in the editor as playable units

9.Can I put a kind of 3 persons only in vehicles?

I don't get it....

[DmitryJDM 1]

Giallustio, I while only understood as to edit the menu of purchase of transport and the weapon.

I can tell in more detail how to edit the rest? Preferably in Skype show the example of a file. My skype: dimas1kwow or write your :)

[giallustio 770]

I'm really sorry dimaS1k but i've not much time to help you step-by-step.

I told you where and how you have to apply your modifications i can't do more than that at the moment.

I'm sorry.

[DmitryJDM 1]
