Realthinged 44 Posted January 15, 2018 Hi TPW! How i can activate shark with TPW addon? I have Feint's Sharks addon activated. Do i need only activate in userconfig HPP: // ANIMALS tpw_animal_active = 1 ? Or i need also write somewhere in my mission or in userconfig HPP this line: tpw_animal_shark = 1 ? I can't find any sharks in the water yet... Thank you for your answer! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
tiagobr6 10 Posted January 15, 2018 TPW, skirmish isn't recognising RHS or long classnames, both for infantry, vehicles and CAS, i only got ''_IS'' string to work , iraq-syrian conflict faction mod, but when i write ''rhs_faction_usarmy_d'' it won't work, everytime i try it spawns NATO faction instead thank you for the new update ! EDIT: NEVERMIND ABOUT TPW FALL !! EXCUSE ME, ITS WORKING FLAWLESSLY NOW WITH THE NEW UPDATE! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
tiagobr6 10 Posted January 15, 2018 bug report: TPW settings (jar) gui, whatever, is breaking some tpw mods uppon installation, when you setup the .jar and applies the mods on the gui tpw fall stop working , no fall when receiving bullet hits , player fall damage, etc. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I can't find any sharks in the water yet... Thank you for your answer! Hi Realthinged Sharks are activated by default, and will spawn in a radius between 75-200m from the player. They won't spawn if the player is standing in shallow water though, you need to be in water at least 2m deep (this is a design decision so that they don't spawn inland in shallow water). In my experience the sharks don't necessarily attack the player, but I've seen them eat other fish. You can confirm if there are sharks nearby by typing: hint str tpw_animal_array This is my first go at implementing Feint's totally awesome sharks into the game, so please bear with me while I refine it further. 2 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Every time I release an update with HPP Update Required then Gliptal needs to update his program to work with it. For that reason I don't include TPW SETTINGS.jar in the TPW MODS distribution. You are welcome to get in touch with him, or if you are impatient just use tpw_settings.py, which is a simple python script which allows you to easily edit settings.

tiagobr6 10 Posted January 16, 2018 tpw could you put up some instructions for editing tpw skirmish with your 3rd party mods/addons ? im putting ''rhs_faction_usarmy'' but it won't recognize and rolls back to game actual nato forces instead Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

It works for me well. But it would be interesting for me how it works with RHS addons also. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
froggyluv 2136 Posted January 17, 2018 Havent been able to spot any SHarks yet -i ve checked the array as well as just all the agents swimming around in Zeus. Now I only transplanted the Animals.sqf as well as the upgraded Userconfig file -do i need any other files? 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Now I only transplanted the Animals.sqf as well as the upgraded Userconfig file -do i need any other files? Well it's definitely working for me. I just took a screenshot of one buzzing around me in the sea off Malden, but for some reason I can't insert a dropbox image. https://www.dropbox.com/s/19lz3bwkxghr8l8/shark.jpg Do you actually have Feint's sharks addon installed?

The critical thing is that you use the correct string that is common to the classnames of the units you want spawned. "rhs_faction_usarmy" is the faction name, not a common string. Have a look at this site that has the RHS classnames http://class.rhsmods.org Try using the string rhsusf_army Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
tpw 2315 Posted January 17, 2018 19 hours ago, amonrada34 said: hud don't work Yes it bloody does. The icon display is disabled though, as per the changelog. You need to change these lines in your HPP to get it back to the default. tpw_hud_unit[] = {1,1,0.25,0.75}; // UNITS/MARKERS displayed on HUD, where 0/1/2 = disabled/simplified/full, 1 = icon max size, 0.25 = icon min size, 0.75 = text size ( 1 = same size as HUD text). tpw_hud_prx[] = {1,0.5,0.505,1}; // PRX = display numbers of nearby units. tpw_hud_rng[] = {1,0.5,0.56,1}; // RNG = range to centre of player's gaze (performance heavy, disabled by default). I've implemented a lighter HUD which will make it into the next release. 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

tiagobr6 10 Posted January 17, 2018 I found a bug , auto spawned tpw civilians, tpw crowds, tpw cars, tpw skirmish units are disappearing the same second they take a bullet and fall, and sometimes they vanish for no reason, just by going far, crowds are disappearing after killing one civilian gathered within the crowd and cars tend to disappear after killing the driver or a passenger, well , any workaround on this? mods i have enabled -tpw -cba3 -cup (excluding maps, core and cwa) -blastcore edited -blastcore tracers foxtfort edit -bloodlust -revo's mine detector -virtual projectile sound reality -vcom ai -all rhs -ch view distance -advanced towing, sling, rappel, urban rappel -enhanced movement -iran-iraq-syrian conflict -takistan civs for cup -advanced ai command that's all of it. EDIT 1: disabled all mods leaving only tpw and cba3 enabled, bug persists Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

The only units that disappear immediately when killed are TPW CROWDS civs. I've been testing TPW MODS a lot lately and I've not seen the behaviour you describe. Can you please PM a copy of your TPW_MODS.hpp, just in case there's a setting there that is causing issues. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
