Dynamic Survival Sandbox V1.0

[Ranwer135 308]

Hello everyone,

Here it is, my 2nd mission I've done in the Bohemia Interactive Forums:

=========================================================================================

Description:

Dynamic Survival Sandbox is a Sandbox similar to Craig's Dynamic Zombie Sandbox, but without zombies.

You will spawn on Stratis' coastline, beware of players too!

When you've spawned, you will be given 2 weapons, and very few ammo to use.

So the aim of the Sandbox is simple: Scavenge, Survive, Win and don't die.

=========================================================================================

Features:

• Players can deploy/pack their tent and campfire.

• Fast Time.

• Status HUD.

• Loot Spawns around the map.

• WeatherService function.

• Vehicles spawn around map.

• Particle effects.

• Revive Included.

================================================

Known Bugs:

• None at the current time. (only in Stratis, but a New version will be released)

==================================

Future Plans:

• To try and make a working dialog for the developing sleeping script.

• An Altis version.

• Ambient tracks during the mission.

• More fixes and updates.

Hello,

So I was playing around with a survival mod, I found your mission and ported it to my mission on Namalsk.

Things I added

-------------------

K9 companion

Sandbag placing

winter snow mod

BTC revive with mobile base

take a look at my steam screenshots.. I would like to develop your mod further with you if you want

steamcommunityDOTcom/profiles/76561198045580290/home/ <----- change DOT to . (for some reason I couldn't add it)

[toxicsludge 12]

I would like to see this hosted somewhere, would be great with a few players :)

[jonbuckles 10]

Were actually in the process of developing this into a standalone mod/mission.. Still has work to be done but the framework looks promising :)

[giorgygr 61]

1)I STRONGLY believe the custom actions "Set up Camp" and "Weather Forecast" should be in "Radio menu".

As is..player is spammed from Action "Weather Forecast" EVERY-TIME he wants to open a door and lots accidental "Set up Camp" happens.

2)Also.."Setting a camp" action makes every backpack i m carrying to disappear :/

3) I dunno if it's just me..but hosting this mission to a dedi environment i got No enemies/other NPC's (played once as Civ/once as Indi)

I really looking forward for an updated version

1. Yeah, I agree too. But since I saw how DayZ standalone had with the flashlight, they had the addaction to turn it on, too.

But I'll look into that more and see if it is really worth doing that. :)

2. Yep. About the backpack, I'll be releasing V2.0 Straight away today. (It has urgent major changes that fixes the backpack, and respawning problems) ;)

3. I had a similar thought as you too, GiorgyGR. But I'll see if ambient NPC's will make the mission more alive. :cool:

================================================================================================================

NOTE: I'll edit the first post in this thread and replace the 1.0 version with the new 2.0.

Cheers everyone!

First of all..thanks for considering up my observations :)

I m feeling i should make myself more 'clear' about 1 point.

My poor written (and spoken :P ) English maybe kept you from understanding..i haven't encountered ANY enemies at all in all map.

Only "proof of life" i saw was..(look spoiler)

..after the "walk-in-a-park"-while in airport there was 2 vehicles on fire and each one had 1 body lying in the wrecks..

I should add..i AM running some mods..but i want to believe there are no conflicts between the mission and those..

(Sound/Visuals enhancements +low level AI behavior mods)

LOL! Yeah I put that there in the editor so that people get the feeling "OMG, Someone did this. RUN!"

:idea:

[sultanofswing 10]

Seems pretty cool. Only thing that is weird to me is the clouds, They change an awful lot. Looks weird.

How long before you add AI?

Yeah, I'm currently running code34's real weather script. (It really does look strange when clouds suddenly change in a blink of an eye)

But I'm thinking of using gammadust's GAMTimeXleration script instead.

Also, about the AI units. I've definitely considered putting NPC's in, so new features and fixes will be in V3.0. :)

But V3.0 should be released as soon as I get a functioning Vehicle Spawner.

Regards,

Ranwer

[jonbuckles 10]

Ive actually added "objectives" heli crash sites with loot throughout the map, vehicle repair, dog companions (if you can clear the police station of hostiles) and a bunch of other stuff like hostile quarantine areas/ camps, but Im waiting for the framework to be finished before releasing anything. And I don't want to give too much away ;) maybe V3.0???

[giorgygr 61]

One more thing is loot is very easy to find.

The more rare the loot the better imo (at least weapons/magazines/AT's/rockets)

Ok, I suppose the rareness of loot can make the game more interesting. (But i'm looking foward to doing the arma3 chernarus edition) ;)

By the way: I'm looking for a script that spawns vehicles all over the map (instead of towns)It'll be great if someone could help me create or find one.

Hey, Ranwer! Is it possible to play your Chernarus version using A3MP instead of AiA?

cheers!

Not sure? :confused: But since both Mods support Chernarus, then I reckon it should work. :D

Regards,

Ranwer

[corporal_lib[br] 396]

Yep, it does... now I´ll wait for the next update, so we can have NPCs to shot at and dodge their bullets ;)

cheers!

[Ranwer135 308]

Yeah the NPC's will definitely be in the next update.

But right now, Here is a short update on what I've done: :D

=============================================

CHANGELOG:

- Ported TPW's foggy breath script.

- Added objects around towns. (for the R3F Logistics Function)

=============================================

NOTE: To all who are reading this note, here is my question.

Is it ok to use the deathtrack from DayZ? Its just that it sounds good as an intro, thats all. :cool: (as well as give credit to them in the mission)

[Recardio 1]

Any chance for a singleplayer version once you have the AI in? Or would that be easy to do with setting one of the classes as Player? Also, seeing as I haven't tried the mission yet, is there a hunger/thirst/tired/temperature system? If so, that is awesome. I'm actually waiting for the AI version, but I'll post my first thoughts.

Hello Recardio,

Yes, I hoping to create a SP gamemode, but theres only 1 problem. When you die, you don't respawn (you only respawn in MP)

Anyway, about the temperature system. I havn't really worked out Wasteland's system, but the hunger and thirst will be in one of the next updates.

Also, the AI system is getting there, what I've done is placed some units. (all I need to do is to randomly spawn them with waypoint loops)

Ranwer

[Ranwer135 308]

Hello guys,

I've managed to create a logo for "Dynamic Survival Sandbox".

(although, it requires moderators permission since it looks almost like DayZ's style :confused:)

Cheers!

Ranwer

[kremator 1065]

Why does it need permission? If you are using a different font, different graphics, and different styles then you aren't infringing on anything.

Looks good BTW!

Thanks Kremator. :)

The only similarities I found was that the DayZ logo was black and white as well as got the black objects inside the words. (although everything I did in my logo is by scratch)
