Yes, exactly what I'm trying to do. I wanna handpick vehicles, enemy soldiers and civilians and make my own setup option.

I do this in the INS_definitions.sqf under "Global Class Arrays" right? Couse I'm using Project_OPFOR, not Leight's Opfor Pack.

 

When I check the option for "// Leight's Opfor Pack Islamic State of Takistan and Sahrani" they all miss "_OPF_" in class names.

Sorry for late reply. Worked 65 hours this week..
Project_OPFOR is rebranded and newer supported version of Leight's Opfor Pack. The class names from Project_OPFOR are the same as they were in Leight's Opfor Pack and still contain LOP prefixes.
Not sure what is unclear in the howto guide but I'll try to explain in brief again.
Create a new blank mission in VR terrain. In editor Place all moded enemy units, civilians emty turrets, empty vehicles that you wish to use in a lobby option "         Opposing Army/Mod Initialization".
Save the mission as unbinerized and coppy all addons from mission.sqm addons[]=
{....};

Some addons may differ in Project_OPFOR from Leight's Opfor Pack but the legacy addons from Leight's Opfor Pack still work with Project_OPFOR. Since this option was originally designed with Leight's before Project_OPFOR was released and it still works just fine/backwards compatible, I have not changed the addons detection/activation in init.sqf

Paste all addon into lists _requiredAddons and activateAddons  in init.sqf
Copy/log class names in editor and paste them into the appropriate corresponding lists in eos\UnitPools.sqf. These are the class types that spawn in the grid system.
Copy/log class names in editor and paste all other types that spawn outside of grid system for example civis, civi vehicles, CAS, Airpatrole and Units for objectives typically main military force ie: units, statics and vehicles, in a case option in INS_definitions.sqf. The first case has descriptions at the end of each list.
Case values in init.sqf and INS_definitions correspond with lobby option "         Opposing Army/Mod Initialization" values
Case options in UnitPools.sqf correspond with parameters passed to eos\OpenMe.sqf in init.sqf cases
ex. [EAST,14,15]execVM "eos\OpenMe.sqf"; will spawn the major faction  CUP Takistan Army (case 14) and minor faction CUP Takistan Militia (case 15).
This way the grid system will spawn a majority faction (typically a military army) and a minor faction (typically a guerilla faction).
If you only want to fight one faction then [EAST,14,14]execVM "eos\OpenMe.sqf"; would spawn only CUP Takistan Army in the grid system.

All vanilla content does not need to be detected and activated but moded content does.
You can mix and match anyway you like I believe, but you must create new cases and .hpp options. The howto on first page covers this in depth.

Hi again Jigsor!

 

Thanks for the help in last reply, awesome dude. Well hope you working 65 hours per week with Insurgency.. .or? :D

 

Btw! I'm trying to change the "Recruit Infantery" to soldiers from SAM, Swedish Army Mod. I've edited and changed the recruitable_units_static.sqf in bon_recruit_units from.. .

Quote

bon_recruit_recruitableunits = ["B_Soldier_F","B_Soldier_lite_F","B_Soldier_GL_F","B_soldier_AR_F","B_Soldier_SL_F","B_Soldier_TL_F","B_soldier_M_F","B_soldier_LAT_F","B_medic_F","B_soldier_repair_F","B_soldier_exp_F","B_Helipilot_F","B_Soldier_A_F","B_soldier_AT_F","B_soldier_AA_F","B_engineer_F","B_crew_F","B_officer_F","B_Pilot_F","B_helicrew_F","B_soldier_PG_F","B_soldier_UAV_F"];

 

to.. .

Quote

bon_recruit_recruitableunits = ["SAM_Soldier_M90K_AR","SAM_Soldier_M90K_SS","SAM_Soldier_M90K_CM","SAM_Soldier_M90K_ENG","SAM_Soldier_M90K_RL","SAM_Soldier_M90K_HAT","SAM_Soldier_M90K_AHAT","SAM_Soldier_M90K_MG","SAM_Soldier_M90K_MM","SAM_Soldier_M90K_RL_GRT"];

 

Still giving me American soldiers when recruiting in-game, any clue?

[Jigsor 176]

Hehe, real job takes lots of my time now, but still working on Insurgency plenty.  WWII Green versions fork is complete.  Lingor terrain update was released today. No major rework was required to mission only a couple of adjustment. More landmass was added and also potential places for a few more grid zones. Unfortunately the Dingor counterpart was not updated so I'll have to not add more grid zones in order to keep Dingor compatibility for now. I might get a chance to test some of the ACE compatibility features on a friends server this week. Looking to 1.49 release this next weekend hopefully. 1.49beta Altis updated with a few more fixes some are ACE related others not.

In bon_recruit_units\init.sqf
 

bon_dynamic_list = true;// Select false if you want to use a a static unit list. You can customize static lists in recruitable_units_static.sqf

Mission pack updated and reuploaded once again. Should be no problems with these. Most versions were unaffected.

BMR_Insurgency_v1_49_RHS.pja305 and BMR_Insurgency_v1_49_CUP.zargabad were missing several updates.
Corrected one minor spelling mistake in briefing - add_diary.sqf.
Changed default lobby options' damage modifiers of players and AI to unmodified in versions BMR_Insurgency_v1_49_OPTRE.Altis and BMR_Insurgency_v1_49.lingor3.
Updated mission pack dropbox download link and date in notes.txt/release_notes.txt.
Code base remains the same so no version number change.

I think I understand the question. Yes it is possible to change all text to Spanish. This must be done manually. The most commonly used text already supports Spanish translation in the stringtable.xml such as most scroll actions, objective descriptions and G.U.I. Lobby options have not been translated and probably a few other things such as some notifications. Feel free to translate/edit the mission as you need.

Thank you.
By default there are no restrictions. You are probably playing an edited version.
This is where restrictions for pilots is set.
To make restrictions add playable unit type class names.

 

[Jigsor 176]

Mission pack updated once again with some very minor changes.

Moved objects at base in Lingor versions for changes in Lingor v3.9.5 terrain.

Fixes some more spelling errors in Admin Menu.

Updated release notes.

 

As these changes are very minor and the code base is the same as previous 1.49 release, the version number stays the same.

Love playing this

Greetings and thanks for the amazing mission. Would it be possible to have this ported to Rosche in the future?

Hello AWACS_Ghost_Eye and welcome to the forums. Yes, Rosche terrain is a good candidate for future port. This is planned as well as a Community Factions Project version for next BMR Insurgency release. I can't say when this will happen just yet as I am currently working on a completely new a different mission project which is mostly finished now.

[Tyl3r99 41]

congrats on the successful update :) 

I noticed that armaholic is still showing the version 1.44 not 1.49
I understand these missions are not on steam workshop either?

Hey Jigosr,

Found another small tiny issue: 
The USS Freedom on the altis mission (1.49) theres no marker for it, could you maybe add one? 

Also a query: 
Voting as admin does not unlock the admin functions through the map. 
does the admin(s) have to be white-listed for this to work like set up as admin on the servers control panel? 

Thanks in advanced.

The Heli Crew Helmets on recruited AI is intended and double as Gas Masks. This way if recruited AI inadvertantly wonder into vanilla yellow hand grenade or yellow ugl smoke they will not die.
If you turn off poison gas option in lobby then recruits will not have gas masks.

I didn't feel a marker on USS Freedom was necessary as the Freedom's outline can be found on the map and can also be discovered through flag pole teleport options. Due to extra code and complications required to global hide it at mission start then player unhide it depending on side and depending if the freedom even exist on the map (on some map versions there is no sea and no carrier).
I suppose I will try to create the marker and additional required code on next version which could be helpful and more obvious to new players.

Access to admin tools panel is restricted to local server host player or logged in admins on dedicated only and not voted admins by design. This is to avoid trolling and abuse of tools by pubies / non trusted admin.

Ah okay just to confirm. so we would need to set who ever needs it, to be set as admin through our dedi-box arma 3 server and not set as admin during game (voting)
(i love being able to force mission generator) its a good time killer lol

Yeah not anything major at all, just noticed the carrier mark on the map can be quite small. I'll live with it ;)

Thank you kindly for the detailed replies.

Hello, want to start off by saying Jigsor hit a real sweet spot here, it is such an awesome mpmission that I can easily say it is my favorite. So thank you Jigsor for creating such stunningly good content. 

 

Players on my server were saying they cannot Recruit Infantry and were prompted with "Reserved for team leaders" 

 

Made sure to tell them once more than 1 player is joined, to use "U" to open squad menu and start your own unit, thus making you a sqad leader

 

INFANTRY FOR EVERYBODY!!

 

Hope this helps,

Edited January 29, 2019 by TheOneBender
I thought I found an issue but it was something that can be fixed with features

[Jigsor 176]

@TheOneBender,

Ah, I see you found the problem.. hehe, user error or misunderstanding. I was just on my dedi trying to reproduce the error as you updated/changed  your message and could not reproduce. I was hoping the hint and chat message was enough of a clue for players. Thanks for the kind words and I'm really glad you enjoy it.  Welcome to the forums and if you have any other issues i will try to help the best I can.

[victor87 2]

Loving the missions Jigsor! I have 2 things I could really use some help with. I play on a dedi with a small group using 1.49. 1. Is there a way to modify how long it takes for corpses to despawn? 2. We have not been able to find ANY intel at all. I turned the debug mode on and it spawned fine, but it just seems like its not spawning at all? We've put a lot of hours into these missions and I'm sure we would have found some intel if it existed. Thanks again for the missions!

Thanks Victor, its good to hear you guys are still enjoying it.
For the corpse clean up on server you can increase this delay and change this to 180 for three minute delay for example
https://github.com/Jigsor/BMR_Insurgency.Altis/blob/5ac94121c35f8f731f6bae6f5b166586e1a812d2/INSfncs/server/server_fncs.sqf#L12
and there is some redundancy to corpse clean up here which will need to be increased aswell to 3*60 for 3 minute delay.
https://github.com/Jigsor/BMR_Insurgency.Altis/blob/5ac94121c35f8f731f6bae6f5b166586e1a812d2/scripts/repetitive_cleanup.sqf#L21
For units created by headless client change here
https://github.com/Jigsor/BMR_Insurgency.Altis/blob/5ac94121c35f8f731f6bae6f5b166586e1a812d2/INSfncs/hc/headless_client_fncs.sqf#L12

For intel. In v1.49 all intel related issues have been resolved. I've not seen any issues in this regard in this version.
The intel location markers should be easy to spot with lobby settings "Show Intel Location Markers?" set to yes which is default.
If you local host and turn on Debug in lobby then you should see a message when intel begins spawning and also when it completes spawning.
debugging for intel is not switched on with debug lobby option. You must temporarily change this script here.

https://github.com/Jigsor/BMR_Insurgency.Altis/blob/5ac94121c35f8f731f6bae6f5b166586e1a812d2/scripts/ghst_PutinBuildIntel.sqf#L48

It will log intel positions and problem positions if it fails.
Increasing intel ratio can help produce any problems faster so problem area/marker can be adjusted. Maybe a structure over water or structure with interior positions but no entrances exist for example needs to be black listed in INS_definitions.sqf for that particular terrain.
I believe I have already found these structures which need to be blacklisted and have done so for all supported terrains.
Some thing to keep in mind if you edit and move or create additional grid zone markers. These markers which are used to spawn intel, ammo cache, are visible and used to and trigger mission ending are listed in variable all_eos_mkrs per terrain in INS_definitions.sqf.
This has already been done in v1.49 and should be good in official release.
You should be using the  drop box release and not building with github because github mission differences is still not updated to 1.49. Only Altis vanilla is up to date on github atm.
Debug lobby option should not be enabled in dedicated server environment. Many things could break. Its currently only designed for testing in local hosted environment.

If this does not help then in private message you could send me your locally hosted rpt with edit #define _debug true in ghst_PutinBuildIntel.sqf and maybe dedicated server rpt with #define _debug false rpt as well.

Are you using any sort of command black listing on your server?
