Does TB generate a new config.cpp ?

What is everyone else using are you all using the Altis config.cpp but just changing the paths if not could anyone please post an up-to-date config.cpp :)

Thanks guys

I thank you, it must have been my config as this one after changing to my setting works great after Packing !

Many thanks !

[memphisbelle 99]

thanks @Jakerod for you always being around and willing to help.

[1para{god-father} 105]

I 2nd that !

No problem guys. I'm happy to help. Some people around here set some great examples for me.

[fully 1]

I get this error when I try and pack.

#include "abc_sample.hpp"

"abc_sample.hpp"

rapify x32UnicodeVersion 1.75, Dll 4.73 "config.cpp"

In File abc\abc_sample\config.cpp: Line 120 Cannot include file

were does the abc_sample.hpp come from?

Have I missed a step some were?

BTW: This is from your tut, I have read it many times, both the wiki and the readme :/

[1para{god-father} 105]

I believe they are just Key points - so make a new Key-point in TB and it will create the file for you

If not just create an empty text file and rename it to abc_sample.hpp and try again that will work until you want to add keypoints

Hi All, I know this thread is somewhat old being 3 1/2 years old but I wondered if anyone could tell me what's wrong with my config.cpp file. It packs with addon builder fine each time but I get a series of crashes when loading the game with the my map mod, my first time btw so still very much learning on an incredibly steep curve.

My latest crash message goes like this         

"File testisland\config.cpp, line 124: ' ,cfgClutter':  ',' encountered instead of '='

The one before that was

"File testisland\config.cpp, line 124: 'CfgWorlds.cfgClutter': '.' encountered instead of '='

 

I'm using the config that was given out above in the thread. After overcoming all sorts of  brick walls and learning around them I feel I'm close to an end result. The end result will be a simple island and I hope to progress from there.

All help humbly received.

Addon Builder is broken for making maps, you should be using pboproject. Since you are using addon builder, the guide you are learning from is wrong. So start with https://pmc.editing.wiki/doku.php?id=arma3:terrain

It has the most up to date info, also get on the Arma Discord for quicker help

Hi thanks for reply, It's broken, oh dear that's 2 days I will never get back lol.

I was using pboproject but that kept telling me I had a problem in my layers.cfg which to be honest I couldn't find, last error was .............
