You can't interact with a hand-placed trader if you turn everything off in the AI module, you have to enable at least one roaming faction in order to activate and interact with a static trader.

 

grrrr

@boyce05

Then enable one and set population factor to 0.

Problem solved.

Tried doing a couple more Rusty guns since I noticed Apex weapons arent EBOd anymore.

 

I'll keep fiddling and see if there is some good one to add...

Looks like I'm happy.

G'day Haleks,

 

Thanks for the info. Keep up the good work.

@wansec_6: drinking from water surfaces like rivers isn't supported ATM, there're way too many variables to deal with and not all terrains use the same techs (ponds etc).

 

@lv1234: traders will have different supplies if you get far enough from them (can't remember the exact distance treshhold), but having that happening on a daily basis would make more sense. I'll see if I can tweak that.

Really? So if you go away from the traders in altis (if they stand still) and tanoa (the trading store) for a while, the items they sell will re-randomize?

 

Anyway, if you do implement it, that would be nice. Keep up the good work :)

 

[cosmic10r 2320]

So I tried a different way of doing the rusty weapons and I think it turned out better then the last one... the contrast sucked in  the last picture...

 

Thoughts?

I think it looks really good. Looks like an unkept gun thats been laying around in the shed or the back of the truck for quite awhile.

Here is the other side... I'm going to fiddle with method a bit more and see what I can come up with.

 

Then I'll have to see how many Haleks let's me add LOL

 

[cosmic10r 2320]

Much happier with this method

1. Place down the Ravage AI module.

2. Place down a unit. (preferably a blufor or civilian)

3. Add this code to the init of unit...

this setVariable ["isTrader", "rvg_arms_s", true];  // this is for an arms trader

this setVariable ["isTrader", "rvg_gear_s", true];  // this is for a gear trader

this setVariable ["isTrader", "rvg_supplies_s", true];  // this is for a supplies trader

If you want the trader to remain static, uncheck Enable Simulation. (found in the unit's Objects: Special States)

 

 

Edit...Oops, just noticed Fire's post which links a solution. 

What do you mean by ravage ai module? sorry have not been messing with editor for a while

 

never mind found it

 

But still wanting know how to make it so that the trader items re-randomize each day or when you get a certain distance away from them.

hey guys, just a noob question. how do i set zombies to be friendly with OPFOR? something along the lines of like Ryan zombies and demons where they dont attack OPFOR if their set to be friendly with em, i prefer the zombies in this mod as it doesnt impact performance that much and the fact that you can give the zombies different uniforms compared to ryans

[tourist 617]

@cosmic10r: looks really great!  The little black dots remain if a survivor tries to remove deep old rust stains with improvised abrasives like sand - perfect depiction of such cleaning efforts's result!

Im not sure thats possible rite now..

 

 

zeds will attack anything,including animals

[haleks 8204]

@HazardousJay: redarmy is right, zeds will attack anything that is not a zed. Why do you want them to be friendly with Opfor, if I may ask?

I assume a scenario involving mind control or something like that?

New Old Rpg

Should add some crack effects to the wood. Imo, if these would be added, change the stats to make them less accurate for realism.

yeah! XD just thought of an absurd scenario.. guess ill make do.

 

btw this mod is awesome since you can slap uniforms of different mods into the zeds, so they at least fit the country. i.e Chernarus civvie clothing for zombies in chernarus, and fitting takistan clothing for the zombie taki civs etc.  not to mention its not too straining on the ol' toaster

Some quick news about the next update :

 

I took a few hours today to focus on various tweaks and fixes not related to the new loot/furnitures system. Mostly traders and zombies related stuff - I'm still reviewing what else needs fixing for traders, but here's the changelog so far :

Quote

147

Tweaked :
Zed pathfinding updates should execute a bit faster.
Reduced unnecessary zed pathfinding updates.
Minor optimizations to zombie AI.
Tweaked list of lootable props.
Positioning of spawned vehicles and wrecks.
Wrecks are now spawned as simpleObjects.
Edited gear lists for NPCs.
Added a new default uniform to zombies.
Traders will greet nearby players.
It is now possible to sleep on sofas.
Zombies have been assigned proper nameSounds.*
Traders will update their supplies at least once a day.

Fixed :
Zombies had trouble updating their pathfinding when in large groups.
Zombies were able to detect deployed mines and explosives.
Vehicles and wrecks spawning on top of each others.
Spawned wrecks sometimes sunk into the ground.
Fixed nomad traders failing to stop when approached.
Fixed an issue with backpacks grabbed by zombies.
Fixed another issue/exploit when selling weapons to traders.

New :
Added an Ambient Conversation setting to the AI module.
Zombies have a small chance to disarm players.
 

 

*Zombies have been assigned proper nameSounds : This means that the AI will no longer use "unknown_type" when calling out spotted zombies. Instead of saying "Contact, unknown, 100 meters", your AI squadmates will now say "Contact, Walker, 100 meters", either on radio or directly. "Walker" is the best word I could find in the vanilla audio files, it has variants for pretty much every voice ingame so it should feel natural and "vanilla" (so to speak) in most scenarios - except that runners and bolters will also be called "walkers" by the AI... If you fancy a remake of The Walking Dead, Ravage 147 will be perfect for it, haha! ^^

 

There's still a lot of work to be done on the loot & furnitures system (that's why it's not the changelog yet), but thanks to EO and Cosmic, we are making good progress on the more time consuming aspects (creating all the compos for all buildings). The concept itself is working pretty good both technically and performance-wise; all is left is to do is finishing the compos and the actual implementation : if possible, I'd like to avoid breaking older missions with the new module, but that is going to be a headache...

 

EDIT : I should probably mention that the next update will most likely no longer use the damaged models for Altis/Stratis structures, as their current implementation causes too many issues with ambient furnitures.

Yeah, also noticed that some of the buildings were bugged into each other sometimes.

I don't think that it will be a problem for anybody if you reset them.

[cosmic10r 2320]

i tweaked the wood a bit but im not sure if looks better or worse then the first set

 

[cosmic10r 2320]

I think the first set i posted looks better after looking at it.

 

I a bit disappointed because i had a cool idea for the Rpg head but it isn't configured to be retextured.

[Lecter 66]

I havent been following on the most recent updates, but do you guys have large group of zombies spawned once you kill initial 4 bandits at the start? Is this something you've encountered as well, or it's some bug that I have?

Since I have custom items in the modfile, whats the easiest way to add it to the newest update
