Vest has no armor in game, config help.

[OberSchutze 19]

Thanks.

OK, I'll check them out when you post them up

Keep in mind just because the Arsenal shows the vests as having no armour, doesn't mean that they don't have any - the Arsenal hasn't been patched to work properly with the new PPE system and shows nil armour for everything. The true test is if you can survive getting hit in the chest :P

 

Yeah i know. I found the bug while shooting virtual soldier wearing my gear. My vest are made of butter. 

class V_CSOR_ATAC_AU_H : V_PlateCarrier1_rgr
	{
		author= "Olivier Languedoc & Guillaume Arruda";
		displayName = "[CSOR] A-TACS AU Heavy Plate Carrier";
		picture = "\CSOR\Vest\Icons\icon_vest_ATAC_AU.paa";
		hiddenSelections[] = {"Camo"};
		hiddenSelectionsTextures[] = {"\CSOR\Vest\Textures\Vest_ATAC_AU.paa"};
		class ItemInfo: VestItem
		{
			armor = "100";
			containerclass = "Supply180";
			mass = 130;
			passthrough = 0.2;
			uniformModel = "\A3\Characters_F\BLUFOR\equip_b_vest01";
			hiddenSelections[] = {"camo"};
		}; 

Do you think its because i have an amor value that it break the inheritance?

[OberSchutze 19]

The armor value is changed to different types of locations. The 1st page has the list of what works in place of the armor = 100 value.

[O.Languedoc 67]

yeah i know. But if want the vanilla stuff. Do i have to manually add the hitpoits class to every vest? 

[OberSchutze 19]

That is what I had to do when I did my re-texture.

[O.Languedoc 67]

And do you know where are the vanilla hitpoints values for each type of vest? I dont want to have invincible vest.

Its broken because you inherit your ItemInfo from ItemVest, which is coded as such:

	class VestItem: InventoryItem_Base_F
	{
		author = "$STR_A3_Bohemia_Interactive";
		_generalMacro = "VestItem";
		type = 701;
		uniformType = "Default";
		hiddenSelections[] = {};
		class HitpointsProtectionInfo
		{
			class Body
			{
				hitpointName = "HitBody";
				armor = 0;
				passThrough = 1;
			};
		};
		overlaySelectionsInfo[] = {"Ghillie_hide"};
		showHolsteredPistol = 0;
	};

Notice the armor value of 0 ;)

 

Instead, change

class ItemInfo: VestItem

to

class ItemInfo: ItemInfo

and it should work as intended, without having to define the armour values in your config.

class V_CSOR_ATAC_AU_H : V_PlateCarrier1_rgr
	{
		author= "Olivier Languedoc & Guillaume Arruda";
		displayName = "[CSOR] A-TACS AU Heavy Plate Carrier";
		picture = "\CSOR\Vest\Icons\icon_vest_ATAC_AU.paa";
		hiddenSelections[] = {"Camo"};
		hiddenSelectionsTextures[] = {"\CSOR\Vest\Textures\Vest_ATAC_AU.paa"};
		class ItemInfo: ItemInfo
		{
			containerclass = "Supply180";
			mass = 130;
			uniformModel = "\A3\Characters_F\BLUFOR\equip_b_vest01";
			hiddenSelections[] = {"camo"};
		};
        };

Hello. I had the very same issue and the way i was able to fix it was by using this:
https://community.bistudio.com/wiki/Arma_3_Soldier_Protection

As the example shows:
 

	// Carrier Special Rig (Green)
	class V_PlateCarrierSpec_rgr: Vest_NoCamo_Base
	{
		/* other properties */	
		class ItemInfo: ItemInfo
		{	
			/* other properties */	
			class HitpointsProtectionInfo
			{
				class Neck
				{
					hitpointName	= "HitNeck"; // reference to the hit point class defined in the man base class
					armor		= 8; // addition to armor of referenced hitpoint
					passThrough	= 0.5; // multiplier of base passThrough defined in referenced hitpoint
				};
				class Arms
				{
					hitpointName	= "HitArms";
					armor		= 8;
					passThrough	= 0.5;
				};
				class Chest 
				{
					hitpointName	= "HitChest"; 
					armor		= 24; 
					passThrough	= 0.1; 
				};
				class Diaphragm
				{
					hitpointName	= "HitDiaphragm";
					armor		= 24;
					passThrough	= 0.1;
				};
				class Abdomen
				{
					hitpointName	= "HitAbdomen"; 
					armor		= 24;
					passThrough	= 0.1;
				};
				class Body
				{
					hitpointName	= "HitBody";
					passThrough	= 0.1;
				};
			};
		};
	};

I added that to my code and when i went back in the game it was working. Hope it helps out someone. I'm quite new to modding. :)
