Really great mission! Love the ACE integration, keep up the good work!

Hi, 

 

Can you tell me how I could add CAF Aggressors to AI, so they look like taliban/ISIS soldiers instead? It doesn't make much sense that it's normal loadout AI for OPFOR as example in Takistan.

 

Thanks for the mission!  

[SENSEII 104]

 

Ok how do you load the body bags and AI you have to transport into vehicles? Can drag the body bags and move the AI you take prisoner around but still can not figure out how to load them to transport.

You don't need to transport the body bags, you just need to use the gather intel action. You can transport AI by detaining them with cable ties and interacting with a vehicle to load the AI.

You can edit the unit pools in fnc\fn_settingsPre. I already support RHS units, so you can use them as an example for CAF.

Yo yo yo, I have some questions:

 

1. how do I retrieve Intel from the Officer? Killing him? Searching his body? 

 

2.How do I recognice the correct officer?

 

3. Why I can't change insignias and faces in your mission?

 

4. Is it normal that my fps drop like hell when I'm flying my choppa?

 

5. Why is your mission so awesome?

 

 

Thank you!

Ok thanks.

 

Very good job on this mission. I look forward to the next Update.

Would be cool if we could change the faction via parameters :) Eg. So I could select that I want Taki insurgents and civs on takistan etc.

1. Use the gather intel action in the ACE interaction menu (this info as well as other tips are in the Field Manual).

2. He's the unit wearing the officer's hat  :) . I'm not sure how else to explain it. I can tell you that the officer unit is not used anywhere else in the mission, so his uniform is unique.

3. I'll look into this.

4. I'm pretty sure this isn't mission specific. It's likely due to view/object distance settings. 

5.  :ph34r: cause I'm a ninja.

UPDATE!!! woohoooooo...

Thanks a lot... loving this mission. we have been playing this for few days now.

The advanced medical system is so unforgiving, our community "rambo" players is decreasing like helll. LOL

 

*edit*
it says this when I launch it on our dedicated server -> no entry 'bin\config.bin/CfgPatches.halo_test'.

any idea what that means? and how to fix this?

I can not drive Spawn

i think you have to stand as close as possible to the spawn station. I literally stand right in front of it. 

[SENSEII 104]

There is a weird issue where an invisible vehicle is created on the spawn location, preventing any further vehicles from being created. I believe it is a locality issue. I'm working on a fix.

That's probably related to an addon being loaded on the server, but not on the client or vice versa.

 

EDIT: I pm'd you info regarding this error.

[jus61 54]

thx

I think it may be related to the new code you did for _spCheck for "Man".  If you take it out it works fine.

I get a "file deleted" error when trying to download DCG 3.0.7 - Altis/Takistan/Chernarus.

 

Thanks.

do ZEUS count as one? because ZEUS has been a problem to our community (although we do not know why and how)

[jus61 54]

UPDATESS!!! YAY!!! I'll look into what you mentioned. THANKS.. keep bringin in great updates to your missions. you have my community support!

[ussmarines 18]

Great, thank you for the update :wub:

[gulfy32 10]

Still can't figure out the hostage rescue, I had a cable tie and tried Win key on him but there was no arrest button. Tried the regular scroll arrest and still nothing. What am I missing?

[DaViSFiT 21]

Is it possible to add e.g. Leights Opfor Pack on my own way fast and easy? :P  Faction and unit classnames are public.. Do you have plans to add them as optional? Most used and still the best unitpack out there.

[drka0s 0]

Ok, so I did some changes of myself to the mission, to suit my community in regards to base, vehicles etc. 

 

Now..

 

Would it be possible to instead have the occupied cities, to have grid clearing (insurgency) instead, scattered all over the map, where enterable houses are of course, the grid clearing should be re-occupiable by AI after some time (3-4 hours?), would make the mission persistent.  

-

AI Skill level?? They're skilled as fuck, I mean I took a 500m headshot last night, while testing, and this AI just turned around and shot me directly in the face. 

-

Randomly placed IED's? Would be nice!

 

--

 

I also tried to add the CAF Agressors, but I cannot really see how to do it, I tried just editing the RHS units, and switch them out with CAF Aggressors classnames, but it doesn't seem to work?

1. place cable ties in inventory
2. look at unit's hands > ACE interaction menu > "Take Prisoner"
3. ACE interaction menu > "Escort Prisoner"

• The insurgency style gameplay and persistence you mention are definitely possible, but it's not part of the intended design.
• There are only a few places in the mission where I mess with AI skill. I'd suggest using an AI mod. I frequently use ASR_AI3.
• I'm considering IEDs, but it depends on the performance cost.

 

 

At the moment, editing the unit pools isn't very intuitive. I'm working on a way to set them without editing the mission files, but until then, here's the hard way...

 

The following explains the process for editing unit pools using "myAddon" as an example: 

• open fnc\fn_settingsPre.sqf
• Line 26, add code to check if addon is enabled on the server

if ((paramsArray select 11) isEqualTo 1) then {
      SEN_rhsAFRFEnabled = (isClass (configfile >> "CfgPatches" >> "rhs_main"));
      SEN_rhsUSAFEnabled = (isClass (configfile >> "CfgPatches" >> "rhsusf_main"));
      SEN_lopEnabled = (isClass (configfile >> "CfgPatches" >> "lop_main"));
      SEN_myAddonEnabled = (isClass (configfile >> "CfgPatches" >> "myAddon_main")); // add this, this path may differ depending on the addon
} else {
      SEN_rhsAFRFEnabled = false;
      SEN_rhsUSAFEnabled = false;
      SEN_lopEnabled = false;
      SEN_myAddonEnabled = false;
};

• Starting at line 52, replace the RHS checks (SEN_rhsUSAFEnabled,SEN_rhsAFRFEnabled) with SEN_myAddonEnabled
• Fill arrays with classnames from the intended addon

if (SEN_myAddonEnabled) then {
      SEN_unitPoolWest = [];
      SEN_vehPoolWest = [];
      SEN_airPoolWest = []; publicVariable "SEN_airPoolWest"; // public for fn_transportHandler
      SEN_sniperPoolWest = [];
};
if (SEN_myAddonEnabled) then { 
      if (SEN_enemySide isEqualTo RESISTANCE) exitWith {
            SEN_unitPool = [];
            SEN_vehPool = [];
            SEN_airPool = [];
            SEN_sniperPool = [];
            SEN_officerPool = [];
};
      if (SEN_enemySide isEqualTo EAST) exitWith {
            SEN_unitPool = [];
            SEN_vehPool = [];
            SEN_airPool = [];
            SEN_sniperPool = [];
            SEN_officerPool = [];
      };
};

ohh wow... nice update plans there. but if you're planning to add unit mods on your mission, please make it optional otherwise we can't play it.

and random IED placement would be a good idea. suicide bomber + IED = EPIC.. ha!!
