Sir, I appreciate your extreme understanding with me. I swear I'm not this stupid in other things.

Sir, It works and I'm marking it up to your outstanding help and magic. I'm done for the night

No dice, still crashes. File not found exception or so as before.

_result = call compile ("Arma2Net.Unmanaged" callExtension "MyPlugin [Hello]");
hint _result;

Works in the explorer fine though.

* UPDATE

MySQL plugin doesn't even function in explorer. Says couldn't find file i/o exception. It behaves the same as MyPlugin in-game, crashing it.

sparcdr, are the DLL files blocked at all? You can check if you right click the DLL files and click Properties.

[sparcdr 0]

I don't use UAC, so that option isn't there, so no it isn't blocked.

I completed my C# program using jayarma2lib, and it works, but I loathe the timing issues. Still would like to port it to a plugin for arma2net. Actually did it already, it's not much different, except removing the entry point, just have to do it again whenever a plugin won't crash ARMA2.

I'd like to know if arma2net works with ARMA 2 Free, since an eventual side-task may be porting back to it. (We use Chernarus) I hope you intend to support ARMA 3 (Granted loadext support) so you got my support, even though it hasn't yet worked for me, even the included plugins.

Give me infos about what version you develop for, and I'll try that too.

Since you get a file not found (?) exception you might be able to find some details in the Fusion Log Viewer, detailed in http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/e74a18c4%28v=vs.100%29.aspx

Arma2NET should work in all games using the ARMA engine, provided the callExtension command is present. Thus you don't need a specific version of the game, just one with callExtension.

I've got a Mono version of Arma2Net.Unmanaged.dll working which we can try if all else fails.

callExtension is only present in OA 1.62+ (and probably in the latest TKOH beta patch).

[Scott_NZ 10]

Arma2NET has been updated to version 2.2 with the following changes:

- Arma2NET will now gracefully handle appdomain errors, adding partial support for .NET 4.5 and Windows 8 as a result.

- Added support for the Mono runtime as an alternative to .NET entirely.

- Improved logging functionality.

Download:

ZIP archive: https://bitbucket.org/Scott_NZ/arma2net/downloads/Arma2NET-2.2.zip

MSI installer: https://bitbucket.org/Scott_NZ/arma2net/downloads/Arma2NET-2.2.msi

If you would like to use the Mono runtime instead of the .NET runtime (this should work fine on Windows 8, if not let me know):

Download and install Mono 2.11.3 from http://www.go-mono.com/mono-downloads/download.html (make sure you use 2.11.3, there is a bug in the stable version which will prevent Arma2NET from functioning correctly)

Rename Arma2Net.Unmanaged.Mono.dll to Arma2Net.Unmanaged.dll and back up the old Arma2Net.Unmanaged.dll in case you want to revert.

Append the path to Mono's bin folder to your %PATH% environment variable.

Edit MonoPaths.txt to point to Mono's lib and etc folders.

Arma2NET should function almost exactly the same on Mono as it does on .NET.

Is there any additional information on the Whitelist plugin? There isn't much in the wiki. Basically, how do I even use it?

[Scott_NZ 10]

I removed whitelisting and the need for whitelisting a few patches ago because people were just disabling the associated features anyway.

Hi all,

I am trying to setup Persistant DB for one of my mission/server. I'm really really new to MySQL and Arma2NET.

I am getting this in the log:

It seems it is having troubles getting into the database. Can anyone give me some advice on changing any settings in MySQL to allow proper connection please.

I have done all steps on this. I read a lot of threads to the point my head is about to explode.

Please forgive me if this is in the wrong thread. I will gladly delete and repost elsewhere.

Thank you for your time!!

[Scott_NZ 10]

It looks like a simple fix, you need to create the database first.

[PeeKay 1]

I think I have. I clicked "Create EER Model from SQL script" and used the "MSO(dat).sql" and saved the model as "arma".

[GuideZ 1]

Any suggestions for an alternative or maybe it's something you can add back? Perhaps as an optional plugin? I am more script kiddie then programmer: I've built things from scratch but nothing even slightly complex.

[firefly2442 6]

Why do you need to whitelist/blacklist plugins?

[GuideZ 1]

Not whitelist/blacklist plugins: I want to whitelist players. Instead of having a password (that is freely shared), I want to be able to whitelist who can get into my server, and auto-kick people who are not whitelisted.

[firefly2442 6]

OK, so all you need to do is make a plugin that uses Arma2NET to query a list of whitelisted players and then compare to whatever the player's UID is:

Hi :)

i want to test for purpose only arma2net. Im a c# newbie, what can of ide should i use ? Do you know a free, easy, efficient solution ?

I just took visual studio 2012 evaluation but i m not sure i can use it with arma2net.

[firefly2442 6]

I use Visual Studio 2010 Express.

http://www.microsoft.com/visualstudio/en-us/products/2010-editions/express

[code34 248]

I m going to try it. I also install monodevelop it seems to be nice too.

My goal is to find the simpliest way to only write from arma sqf to serial port ?

arma -> arma2net -> my dll -> my device

Is it the simpliest way ?

[Scott_NZ 10]

Should be simple enough. You can use the SerialPort class: http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/system.io.ports.serialport%28v=vs.100%29.aspx

i will test it tonight thanks :) i think normal i could use the class in mono environment, if it doesn't work, i will test with visual studio.

Thks Scott for you help. I did my job, and arma2net works like a charm.

I did a video about my test, you can see it at this place:

This is amazing. Good work :D

Hey Scott_NZ. Mono works for me. Thanks much.
