Hey,

 

couldn't find anything in the forums, maybe you can help: When I run the mission on my dedicated server, players start on the island, not in the boats (locally it works). Any ideas?

Ah, yes that would be helpful possibly.... Vol 1, day 1 v166

Thanks for this!!

Updated to version 1.67. See OP for more information and download links

 

Changelog version 1.67:

• Fixed: Mission params options
• Fixed: initPlayerServer bug caused players to be stuck at the spawn island
• Updated: Applied ADF 2.05 framework.

[Tobur 37]

@ whiztler: Thanks again! Still doesn't work with the latest version 1.67, though. Still starting on the island. Maybe some problem with my mods. Don't bother, just wanted to give you a feedback

 

Server rpt

[whiztler 137]

All players are logged in the RPT by the framework:

ADF RPT: Init - executing initPlayerServer.sqf | player: SOR_SSC_1 | JIP: true

It seems you joined in progress (JIP, joined when the game has already started). Wolfpack does not transfer JIP players to the boats. Only players at mission start get moved into the boats/heli's etc. There is a flagpole on the Island that can teleport you to the RV location. The flagpole is marked on the map.

[Tobur 37]

Thanks, but I was the first and only player joining the server, so not really JIP? Something wrong maybe on my side... I will try it out again

[whiztler 137]

The actual operation missions are not well suited for public servers because they don't support JIP well. Most communities plan an event, then players join all together at mission start, and play the mission.

 

There is a Warmup, Testting and Training mission included (Wolfpack W.T.T.) that offer both JIP and respawn which is perhaps better suited for continuous game play. 

[OutbreakGRD 1]

My group is planning to run this (And then Two Sierra afterwards) on our server. However we have quite a few new players and would like to enable respawns if possible. Would this be doable in the mission editor? I understand it goes against the point of these missions but I want to make sure it's enjoyable by the whole group.

 

Thanks.

[whiztler 137]

You are free to edit the missions to your liking. Both Wolfpack and Two Sierra were not created with 3Den but mostly scripted. You'll need to edit the description.ext in the mission folder to enable respawn and place respawn markers on the map or set to respawn in group.

 

I would recommend you play the wolfpack training missions. They are a lot of fun and you learn to get the most out of the Wolfpack campaign.

The Two Sierra warm-up missions do offer respawn and teleport to the group leader. The operational missions do not offer respawn. Same as with the Wolfpack missions you need to edit the desription.ext to enable respawn.

Cool, thanks. We will be doing the training missions for sure. I actually prefer not having respawns but some of my guys object to it so I'll look into adding it. These missions look awesome btw, thanks for the hard work.

Updated to version 1.68. See OP for more information and download links

 

Changelog version 1.68:

• Updated: Most mission systems and triggers
• Updated: Attempt to fix patch/insignia and texture issues
• Updated: Applied ARMA 3 Encore update.
• Updated: Applied ADF 2.09 framework.

 

Please note that some missions require the use of AI helicopters, either for infil or for mission objectives. AI Enhancement mods such as VCO-AI, bCombat and ASR-AI, influence the scripted behaviour of the helicopter pilots often resulting in a broken missions in terms of the helicopter part.

It is recommended to disable AI enhancement mods during missions which require helicopter usage: Day 1, Day 2, Day 6, Day 8.

[domokun 515]

My squad and I just tried the Basic Training and we failed it even before the briefing period expired!

I then realised that I (server) was running the ASR AI mod.

So I quit, disabled ASR AI and restarted.

After that the mission ran like a charm.

It's one of the best briefings that we'd ever read.

I never thought that we so enjoy a 45 minute jog through the hills and valleys.

Thanks SO much.

It even convinced them that we should (finally) adopt the ACRE2 and ACE3 mods!

Next week's Advanced Training!

Hi,

 

how can I enable the optional mods? Thought I can switch them on in one of the setup files but I can't find a description in the read me

The mods are automatically used when active on the server. Mods are applied in the following order:

 

1. Both "Project Opfor" and "3CB Factions"
2. Project Opfor
3. 3CB Factions
4. Community Factions Project
5. CUP

If your server has both RHS/Project Opfor and CUP enabled then Wolfpack will use Project Opfor. At the moment mods cannot be manually selected/de-selected.

If you want to change things around then edit "init_redress.sqf" in the scripts folder.

[whiztler 137]

Updated to version 1.71. See OP for more information and download links.

 

OPTIONAL OPFOR/BLUFOR MODS
As off version 1.71 the Wolfpack campaign utilizes a new player loadout. Day and night missions, wet and dry missions, each have their own loadout. Like in RL, tier-1 operators each have their own loadout, including uniform, vest, backpack, primary weapon, hand weapon, etc.  Mods are optional. The missions functions fully without mods. 

Players are equipped according to the availability of mods which are applied in the following order:

1. Red Hammer Studios (USAF) 
   >> 3CB Factions
   >> Project Opfor
2. CUP (Units) 
   >> Community Factions Project
   
OVERRIDES
To override vanilla or modded weapons (primary weapons, hand weapons) with NIArms weapons at mission start using the mission params.
If both RHS and CUP mods are active and one wishes to use CUP then you can override RHS with CUP using the params at mission start.

 

Version 1.71
- Updated: Player loadout. Added support for RHS/CUP/NIArms. See Wolfpack_Readme.pdf for more information.
- Updated: Full seperation mission logic from framework.
- Updated: Wolfpack_Readme.pdf ReadMe document.
- Updated: Applied ADF 2.16 framework.

Have the functions been updated in anyway or just the mission scripts?

Quite a few of the ADF functions have been updated. Had some issues with the AI skill application so deactivated it. Besides that it is mostly optimization.
