Ravage

Every signature file is updated as usual. Does it happen with the version from GoogleDrive too?

It did happen with google drive as well. The picture sent was from the workshop version.



Do you re-sign every pbo with updates or just the main key?

[haleks 8204]

I always re-sign everything with a new key for each release.

The weird thing is that DS utilities tells me all signatures check.

 

I'll re-sign the files and update the SW version in a few hours, in case something went wrong last time.

[haleks 8204]

@Donnie_Plays: (or anyone having the signature problem) when you have the time, could you run a quick test with those files before I push an update? https://drive.google.com/file/d/1e38GYMS2e3rcX4tJM5Odr7p-3SqgyxuS/view?usp=sharing

I've repacked rvg_missions and signed it with the same 156 key. Both DS utilities and the Arma3 launcher check it as signed, tell me if that fixes that for you. ;)

Nice work on the update Haleks and putting the mod up on Steam Workshop, at first when i seen it there as i check daily for new missions for the list ;)

I had to do a double take, as i thought it was another person uploading the mod again.

What finally got you to put the mod on workshop?

[EO 11225]

No signature problems on my end, tested both Steam and GoogleDrive versions in SP and on my private dedicated server.

The amount of content people have been creating and publishing. One of the reasons I was reluctant to publish Ravage on the Workshop was that future major updates could potentially break a lot of missions; but the mod is becoming quite popular it seems, so it doesn't really make sense to keep it outside the WS anymore... I'll just have to be carefull not to break anything with the next updates. ^^

 

By the way, rvg_Apex and rvg_Cup don't show up in the launcher with the WS version... Looks like I'll have to upload them separately.

@haleks i got an error on the createFireEffect function of yours, nothing major i believe, line 66 Undefined variable in expression _unit 

 

waitUntil {({_x distance _unit < 700} count (allPlayers - entities "HeadlessClient_F")) isEqualTo 0};
//possible fix?
waitUntil {({_x distance player or _pos < 700} count (allPlayers - entities "HeadlessClient_F")) isEqualTo 0};

I've had 11,000 views in one week on my "The Last Survivor" mission. It was frontpaged on steam workshop for like four or five days as well. There are a ton of people excited about Ravage being on workshop. Thank you Haleks!

[haleks 8204]

I just released a small hotfix on the WS, I will update the OP and the google drive link later this week-end, once I've made some changes to the file structure.

 

I have to say, the Workshop is practical to use for small updates like this...

[behemeth 16]

I don't see any powerlines on Altis when Ravage is loaded. Is that desired behavior? If not, is anyone experiencing the same?

[haleks 8204]

It is intended, yes. But I plan on releasing a separate addon for this kind of changes, and make it optional.

[behemeth 16]

Thanks for the info, sounds good! Just been wondering... actually I didn't notice that they were gone in all the hours I've been playing already :)

Exactly what I want to say.... that will appreciate users with bad internet connection like me!

Thanks for your effort @haleks and others for helping him!!!

I think that since the Ravage is on SW, fanbase will be twice as big as now.

Mission maker will confirm that most of negative feedback is given by plp who are not able to correctly install mod, and they give up on playing rvg scenarios.

 

I want to ask you @haleks : what are your next goal(s) with mod? I know you are rewriting old code now, but do you have any new addition (or big change) on which we can look forward to?

[BattleChief 97]

I saw Ravage on the workshop...guess it will auto update my ravage for me now..

[BattleChief 97]

@haleks

 

Was curious now that I have seen it on the workshop..were my compositions used? or you still waiting for a larger patch to use them in...I was just curious and wanted to see something good come out of my 100+ building compositions, for the sake of the game mainly..and a little bit of my own pride..either way, won't have any complaints, still a really fine mod.

Someone asked a question on the wiki and it's a good one. Whilst one can add custom uniforms to zombies using the override in the ambient zombies module, they would like to be able to make the specific to a locale. Thus zombies in a lab would be wearing lab coats, zombies in a military base would be wearing military uniforms, etc. I'm struggling to think of a simple way of doing this. Does anyone have a suggestion?

Hi.

 

I used to do this with the override in zombie horde module. It requires a LOT of modules for a full map sandbox tho.

 

Regards.

We have a RAVAGE dedicated server set up! It has three factions with specific starting uniforms. It also has heli crashes and crate drops, roaming AI, zombies and of course looting. There is a random respawn system if you die and a killfeed. There is a group system but you must get close to the player to add them to the group. You can check in game stats by pushing "P".

The server has four hour restarts for now. We may change this. We're testing for performance at four hours. So far everything has been good. You can find the server on the regular Arma launcher just search in the browser.

SERVER NAME:
Infection Podcast - Ravage - Factions - PVP - Zombies

 

IP:
63.224.241.83 : 2302

 

REQUIRED MODS:
Tembelan
CUP Terrains Core
CBA_A3
Ravage
Warfare Ex Thai
Enhanced Movement
 

Before anyone asks... we are not going to add more mods to the server. Everything is set up to give a good balance of action, looting, surviving with good FPS and performance. More mods will ruin this experience. I'm personally not at all into most Arma servers because they tend to run 10-15 mods and it hurts performance and gameplay.

The server has a 24 hour day and night cycle. It takes about two and a half hours for a 24 hour period to pass with the dynamic weather system. You need to keep ahold of flares and chemlights. It gets dark and scary at night. More zombies and they are more aggressive.

Have fun everyone!

Ayo this is great! How does the group system work though exactly? <3 ty

 

JK, it is very self explanatory - you just half to be on the same faction as your bud.

[Donnie_Plays 435]

You do not have to be the same faction to be in a group, Oliver. You just walk up to the player and scroll to group menu and join group.

By the way, we are removing one faction and just going with two instead of three.

I haven't implemented them yet, no... :/

But worry not, I don't want them to go to waste, and will add them as soon as I can find the time to sit down and modify the code for it.
