MoaB 14 Posted April 10, 2017 Okay, I found out why it didn't work. It was the inidb2_x64.dll that was missing. However I have the next problem. As a beginner up until now i was fuguring out how inidbi2 worked. What do I have to do to run those scripts on the server only? The way I do it now saves the data on each client.

MoaB 14 Posted April 12, 2017 Found a way, postet by somebody here click, My Problem was with the server-client interaction. Next question: since inidbi uses a .dll file, does it run on a linux server? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

MoaB 14 Posted April 12, 2017 Ooops I'll have to use iniDBI then. thanks for the reply though Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

MoaB 14 Posted April 12, 2017 I was looking for something that doesn't use a database since that would be overkill for just saving position, direction and loadout. I found a linux port of iniDBI, going to try that. Up until now i just used the profileNameSpace to store those variables on the client pc. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
lone_mountain 0 Posted June 3, 2017 If i make some test with iniDBI2 i get everytime the output any my code is _inidbi = ["new", "milrp"] call OO_INIDBI; hint format["In der _inidbi Variable steht: %1", _inidbi]; sleep 5; _version = "getVersion" call _inidbi; hint format["Die iniDBI2 Version lautet: %1 ", _version]; sleep 5; _exist = "exists" call _inidbi; hint format["In _exist steht: %1", _exist]; sleep 5; _sections = "getSections" call _inidbi; hint format["In _sections steht: %1", _sections]; sleep 5; What can i do ?

Schatten 261 Posted June 16, 2017 @lone_mountain, do you play x64 version of Arma 3? If so try to use x64 version of iniDBi2. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
GameBoss 0 Posted July 1, 2017 I think inidbi2 not working correctly on x64 bit servers :( I managed it to load dll, but nothing can be done after :( 22:16:18 CallExtension loaded: inidbi2 (C:\Program Files\Steam\steamapps\common\Arma 3\@inidbi2\inidbi2_x64.dll) [x݈] When i creating new db using _inidbi = ["new", "newdatabase"] call OO_INIDBI; nothing is created. When Im trying to check version using "getVersion" call _inidbi; it return: 21:58:18 "Version: any" 21:58:28 "Version: any" Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Schatten 261 Posted July 1, 2017 @GameBoss, very strange. I placed inidbi2_x64.dll into @inidbi2 folder; iniDBi2 is loaded by arma3server_x64.exe using -serverMod startup parameter and it works fine for me. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

zigeris 10 Posted July 11, 2017 I have player persistence working (with a mod from Ravage), but I need something for trucks and helis and containers (like tents). Anyone use inidbi2 for that? Or have an examples? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Anyone use inidbi2 for that? Or have an examples? I used code34's OOPDW (Object Oriented Persistent Data World) script for that. It's basically an extension of inidbi2 (and needs it to run). Then I put an addaction on the vehicles and the players set which ones to save by setting a variable for that object. The server scans all the objects and saves whichever ones are marked to be saved. (May not be the best idea in the world but it's what worked for me!) 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Fire Don't get me wrong, it'll be some work to implement. I had to get only the types of vehicles and containers I wanted to be saved to have the addaction. Then I had to replace that addaction to remove the object from the saved list. And I had to add all the correct variables when I reloaded them from the database on a server restart etc.... Took me quite a while to sort all through it but it's possible. Then you'll have to add all the actions ravage uses like refuel, repair, salvage etc..... Good luck!! 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
FireWalker 329 Posted July 13, 2017 @cdn_biggdogg The way I have it now is there is a certain number of editor placed vehicles in the map with the rvg_owned variable on them so they always spawn ready to go. Those certain vehicles automatically save to inidbi2 and they have a "blue" colored addAction on them that lets the player know that they can save gear inside and be persistent. The addAction doesnt do anything, its more of just a hint that will always come on. It actually works really well, its just clunky script wise. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I had the vehicles spawning randomly in as well I had my own loot script running that I could save those containers as well, which spawned in randomly. I had to get creative to get it all to work.

tourist 617 Posted August 1, 2017 Hey FireWalker and cdn_biggdogg, did you already share your persistance code for RAVAGE missiuons in the Editing section of the forums? If not, could you be so kind to do it and/or post the code here as well? I'd like to have a script solutioin fpr my RAVAGE missions allowing full persistence like you two described it, but so far the only option I fouhnd was to use the ALiVE saving system with it's local database option for that. it woould require anyone willing to try my missions to dl ALiVE, then get used to this mod's UI and controls... So I would gladly try if I can get your code to work with RAVAGE missions, if you would like to share it, which I do hope... Kind Regards, tourist Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

kennyleif 20 Posted December 21, 2017 Does this setup, save zeus objects and every Thing? Or how Does it work? And Does it load after server restarts? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Hi, only save and load profile (health, oxygen, loadout, direction and location), you can restart, change the name of the mission, but the database will always be the same, remember that the data is saved on the server, not on the client. I'm working on a new script update, my idea is that you can store vehicles, equipment boxes, objects, etc. Thanks for your question Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
bullkanox 5 Posted December 24, 2017 I forgot to mention that I took the audacity to upload the mod (INIDBI2) to the workshop, with the two .dll (32 & 64 bits) inside the root folder, in the description I mention the link to the original post. If it is inappropriate or offensive that I did this, I eliminate it from the workshop. regards INIDBI2 Workshop Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
