Zakuaz 195 Posted June 22, 2019 Ok so I've been running my ai sqd around and when I find a survivor I recruit him then escort/drive/fly him to one of the few Evac spots I have set up then kit him out and dismiss him. So this latest survivor, I flew him into the Evac zone , put a helmet, MAR rifle, MK3 vest on him and dismissed him... this guy ran 200 meters back to my chopper and got in lol... now he wont get out hahaaa Thought it was pretty funny he's probably thinking "Nope Im sticking with you dudes". 1 3 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Most people that play Arma aren’t kids man. 😂 You'd be surprised at how many “late teened” kids I’ve played with, most of them can hold their own in a firefight. (It’s a shock) I’m just saying this should be open to all. (Obviously not my server. It’s YOUR Rules) but plenty of younger guys play the game and are quite good at it. Just a thought. Cheers! nah let the snowflake zombie cattle generation miss out on it they need to suffer XD lol jk 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

cosmic10r 2331 Posted June 22, 2019 i couldnt figure out why the texture looked so washed out... it was the sampling... for some reason it was at 50% after i updated my drivers... 😐 This looks better 8 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
RZNUNKWN 354 Posted June 23, 2019 What are your configs for the hearing/seeing settings for the zeds guys? I want some good settings that allow me to slip by easily enough when it's night time, using flares as a distraction. Also, did anyone else tried to add more items as lootable objects for Chenrarus? I did once, but somehow I broke the code, as, beyond some point, objects just stopped having loot function. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Will these things influence survivors and traders to eventually start shooting at me, or I am allowed to fire at will? 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I don’t think I’m the first to say that I’ve purposely shot and killed ‘friendly’ units before... 😕 I was starving and dehydrated and the supplies trader had both goods...

I enjoyed it by a nice warm campfire, I used with their matches as well. 🔥 🌡 😈 😏 I think we all have those moments in Ravage when you gotta do what you gotta do...

Donnie_Plays 435 Posted June 24, 2019 I decided to refund the Contact DLC after playing around on the new map for the last two weeks. I like the map and all... but I've concluded that it's not worth the asking price and I'm just not interested in the weapons or things we're getting in this new DLC. Since we're getting all the buildings for the editor for free, I just have no reason to get the new DLC. However... as a side note I wanted to tell everyone here that I spoke to RonHillUltra today for a minute. He informed me that he's considering updating Esseker in the future. He told me that he has an entire new town finished for the northern part of the map. I was telling him about this new DLC and how he could potentially replace all those Arma 2 ported assets from CUP Terrains with these new buildings that look better and are all enterable! If we get an updated Esseker it's going to be the single best thing to happen to apocalyptic maps in Arma in three years, in my opinion. No word on when yet. I told him to officially announce this somewhere so people might start sending him donations to help fund the project. 4 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
RZNUNKWN 354 Posted June 24, 2019 Has anyone tried the Chernobyl map with Ravage? 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

You could try and mix Stalker anomalies with Ravage, I think the Pseudo-dogs and Blood suckers would be a nice touch. (And they may even work with it. I’m unsure though.)

RZNUNKWN 354 Posted June 24, 2019 I'm more concerned about getting loot. I don't think there are any lootable objects. You could live off the bandit patrols, but it would be nice if not easier a bit to have some lootable stuff. Maybe GFs random spawner of items or something like that. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
MuRaZorWitchKING 725 Posted June 24, 2019 35 minutes ago, RZNUNKWN said: Maybe GFs random spawner of items or something like that. Yeah that would work, as it populates each building with loot. Just like Bangabobs’ script I believe. Both not bad options! 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Gill93 342 Posted June 24, 2019 1 hour ago, RZNUNKWN said: Has anyone tried the Chernobyl map with Ravage? I have the only issue I really ran into was not being able to get loot to spawn so I ended up placing abunch of editor objects just to have looting lol I went through the map in editor and gathered all the building classnames and Positions etc in attempt to get loot working properly but never did finish as there was not enough info on the Wikia to continue, 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
RZNUNKWN 354 Posted June 24, 2019 Maybe placing markers on the map that have the radius + amount/type of items that are spawned (and respawns after some time with different ones) that run via script. If it gets spawned inside the wall or something like that, oh well, it's not that bad. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
MuRaZorWitchKING 725 Posted June 24, 2019 @RZNUNKWN I highly recommend taking a look at this loot system, it’s one I’ve used for some time, pairs quite nicely with GF’s cleanup system. And then you make this loot spawned loop, and you’ll always have loot spread across the map. (DayZ style loot) I’m not at my computer at the moment, but next time I’m on I can share my looper with you.

cosmic10r 2331 Posted June 24, 2019 I found an old mission in my files where they had combined DUWS and Ravage. Played a couple times and boy is that some good fun! Combines the raiders and zombies of Ravage with the zone capture of DUWS. 4 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
haleks 8212 Posted June 24, 2019 Hello Ravagers! Now that I'm back in my usual workflow, I'd like to share a few updates on my current plans and projects. First, if you haven't caught up already, the original Contact mission is now a fully fledged mod; scientists and happy triggers alike can make contact over there : I hope you will have fun making missions with the Hexos, this is only the beginning of the invasion. 😉 I have also made some significant progress on "MyST". I don't want to be too specific yet, as the project is still in its infancy, but right now the main antagonists, the "phantoms" are 90% finished, configured and ready-to-use. There's been several design changes since the first Patreon concept, and I will probably upload the new build next month for all supporters. That's one big part almost done - even if the project doesn't go through, the phantoms alone are solid enough to be released as a standalone mod. I'll begin work on a dynamic spawn system soon; that will be MP-compatible, just like Ravage and its modules. 5 3 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

RZNUNKWN 354 Posted June 24, 2019 @MuRaZorWitchKING Oh yeah, I remember this one! I will try this one for sure! Also, I'm using GF drop loot script, so zombies are dropping some items as well. Which kinda makes sense. What could you possibly find/loot in Chernobyl after all these years, except wildlife (script lol) and zombies who were some poor workers or people that wanted to return back to their homes. But this could be potentially dangerous as there are no lootable objects, you'll eventually run out of ammo unless you can melee somehow. 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
