Disable Night Vision ?

[HaZZarD 2]

Hi all

Is there a way to disable the ability to use nigh vision ?

Going in to details my problem here is that I' am using this mod PG Services http://www.armaholic.com/page.php?id=21616 and they have the earpiece in the night vision slot so they have night vision available pressing N without having night vision googles ON.

I would like to keep their earpiece because it's very characteristic of this mod but at the same time I would like to turn off their ability to use night vision

well, any help is welcome : )

Have the same question. Is it possible to disable night vision for items in night vision slot?

Force it from init.

{
 if (side _x == resistance) then {
    
    _x unassignItem "NVGoggles_INDEP";
    _x removeItem "NVGoggles_INDEP";

}; } foreach allunits;

    _x removeItem "NVGoggles_INDEP";

}; } foreach allunits;

If I'm reading it right this won't work, the units don't have night vision goggles, but still have the ability because of how that item in the mod is set up. 

 

The only thing I can think of is over-riding the function whenever the button for night vision goggles is pressed (or calling the night vision goggles off action (https://community.bistudio.com/wiki/Arma_3_Actions#NVGogglesOff)), don't quite know the method though.

Well i have check it out. the problem exist because the addon  autor uses class NVgogles to patch  in earpieces.

	class pmc_earpiece: NVGoggles {
		dlc = "PG_Services_Mod";
		author = "Pomigit";
		displayName = "Radio Earpiece (PG)";
		picture = "\PG_Services_PMC\icons\icon_H_earpiece.paa";
		model = "\PG_Services_PMC\earpiece.p3d";
		modelOptics = "-";
		descriptionShort = "Earpiece";
		descriptionUse = "";

		class ItemInfo {
			type = 616;
			hmdType = 0;
			uniformModel = "\PG_Services_PMC\earpiece.p3d";
			modelOff = "\PG_Services_PMC\earpiece.p3d";
			mass = 4;
		};
	};

The

player action ["nvGogglesOff", player];

is not working as well because this is relevant to the item night vision goggles
