if it stops saving, its usually because objects have a special char in them (as far as i remember, i might be wrong). If you could tell me how you "work around" this problem, i can see if your solution makes sense and if i implemented

ill post the changes when i get home from work.

Just checking before I dive into using this since I know the author said he can't work on it till July.. is it working in its current state?

fn_server_setUnit.sqf

_Player = _this select 0;
if ((isPlayer _Player) && ((_Player getVariable "loaded") == 1)) then {				\\ <------------- This will allow it to save on next 
	_playerInv = str formatText ["%1", (getUnitLoadout _Player)];				\\ 			passes instead of freezing. 
	_playerPos = format ["%1",(getPosWorld _Player)];
	_playerDir = format ["%1",(round(getDir _Player))];
	_playerUID = getPlayerUID _Player;
	_playerName = format ["%1",(name _Player)];
                                                                                                      
Original file.
                                                                                                      
_Player = _this select 0;
waitUntil {isPlayer _Player};
waitUntil {(_Player getVariable "loaded") == 1};
_playerInv = str formatText ["%1", (getUnitLoadout _Player)];
_playerPos = format ["%1",(getPosWorld _Player)];
_playerDir = format ["%1",(round(getDir _Player))];
_playerUID = getPlayerUID _Player;
_playerName = format ["%1",(name _Player)];

After this change the addon has worked like a charm :)

 

if you keep working on it i have a couple of features, i'll like to request :)

 

 

[tebbbs 33]

what kind of features?

[ConArts 1]

1. Admin Force Save

 

2. Web interface for Ordering Supplys. (supplyes will be delivered to predefined markers ingame.) % roll on all ordered supplyes based on how fare in advance order is placed. + tonnage            limite

 

3. Ability to save Opfor to db. at admin request.. (in Our missions it will save Zeus a lot of work setting up AI's if objectives isent completet befor mission end.) if possible a admin feature to remove alle Opfor/AI's from db.  (+ waypoints ect if possible.)

 

4. currently you can set Admin in the db.. now how about Officer. with the ability to assign rank to players ingame.

 

 

i proberly have more.. but this was just from the top of my head.. just  give me a heads up if i need to further explaine :)

does this currently work with modded items such as vehicles from rhs? I can only get vanilla vehicles to save currently.

You dont have to do it for ace.. but if you make some custom stuff you might have to.. if you give it a weird classname

Question, does this also save all AI units along with player units? If not, how easily would it be accomplished to do so? Thanks.

[kennyleif 20]

Does anyone have any documentation on setup, of the request part on a website?

I Tried this, and am now getting 
"17:36:35 Warning Message: Script \sru_pdb\initServer_pdb.sqf not found"

Sounds obvious but make sure you have the .pbo loaded (usually server side only). You may get this error if you load the mission locally on a client.

I got it running on the server.

If anyone have a current running version of this, could they please be of assistance, settting it up? Are you using extdb3 or 2?

[[BL] Hannibal 16]

Using extdb3 but using the pbo linked here: http://tebinulrich.de/pdb.pbo

 

Notice the path is \sru_pdb\ so I think that it is referencing the older one for extdb2

Clicking on the link just gives a lot of text? What do I do with it? And thanks for the help

[[BL] Hannibal 16]

Just right click it, save link as pdb.pbo

[kennyleif 20]

And just to be clear? I replace the sru_pbo with this? And run SRU mod with extdb3 instead of 2?

Okay, so now i get this in rpt, after all the other stuff is loaded in: 
21:37:48 Call extension 'extDB3' could not be loaded: %1 is not a valid Win32 application.

[[BL] Hannibal 16]

Just sounds like it hasn't loaded extdb3 correctly (make sure its 'extDB3_x64.dll' is unlocked).

 

 

Make sure also that you add something like this to the "extdb3-conf.ini"

 

[SRU_DB]
Type = MySQL
Name = arma3
Username = sqluser

Password = Passwordforuser
IP = 8*.**.**.**
Port = 3306

It HAS to be arma3 as name? or can I put the name of my current database?
How do i make sure that the extDB3_x64.dll is unlocked?
Again thanks for all the help

[[BL] Hannibal 16]

It must be the name of the database that you are using. Unlock dll by right clicking it and properties.

 

Stupid question but you are running a 64bit o/s right? :P

Yeah it's 64 bit. 
I don't have that option to unblock it..

[[BL] Hannibal 16]

Then it is probably not relevant for you in that case.

 

Also pm me or the author for further help, this thread will be a bit spammed otherwise :P.

Well then.. I made sure, that i have put in the correct info in "extdb3-conf.ini", so i'm not sure, whats going wrong.
