forzajuve 20 Posted June 16, 2016 I'm having a bit of trouble getting a VA setup the way I like. I would like to have certain items removed but still allow weapons from mods i.e. remove all launchers, binoculars and explosives and add back just a couple of specific items. The BIS_fnc_removeVirtualMagazineCargo weapon/item seems too broad and if I just add stuff manually after then there isn't much point. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

kylania 568 Posted June 16, 2016 The true in your code is telling the VA to load all available items and weapons. You'd need to use alex's code which loads it empty, then one by one adds in what you want to allow. In his example it's mostly RHS items, but the format remains the same. Just replace his lists with what you want to allow. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Just get classnames and put it on right arrays. Also for using supporting other addons, although I have never tried it I would suggest you I would use the activatedAddons command (https://community.bistudio.com/wiki/activatedAddons). Make a new array of the gear/guns from the certain addon and if it returns true then enable that array in the arsenal too.

kylania 568 Posted June 16, 2016 You can check if a mod is installed or not via isClass. Here's an example from Wolfpack: FORZA_mod_RHS = isClass (configFile >> "CfgPatches" >> "rhs_main"); Then later you'd have something like this: _availableUniforms = [ "U_B_Wetsuit" ]; // If RHS is available, also include RHS items. if (FORZA_mod_RHS) then { {_availableUniforms pushback _x} forEach [ "rhs_uniform_FROG01_d", "rhs_uniform_FROG01_wd", "rhs_uniform_FROG01_m81", "rhs_uniform_cu_ucp_101st", "rhs_uniform_cu_ocp_101st"]; }; 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
forzajuve 20 Posted June 16, 2016 I think the 3den way seems to be the easiest and it doesn't seem to matter if I add weapons from a mod which a player doesn't have installed, I wasn't sure about that before. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Kylania is exactly writing how I'd write it which I am happy for. You can use that template kylania wrote a post above yours. I really don't think any other guns mods other than NIArms, RHS and CUP. Maybe consider adding uniforms too? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Larrow 2821 Posted June 16, 2016 You can use Preload and then remove stuff from the Arsenals internal white list by item type. e.g [ "Preload" ] call BIS_fnc_arsenal; dontRemove = []; //Fill with the odd class names you do not want removed { _types = _x; { if !( _x in dontRemove ) then { _info = _x call BIS_fnc_itemType; _info params[ "_type", "_subType" ]; switch ( _type ) do { case "Mine" : { _types set [ _forEachIndex, objNull ]; }; }; switch ( _subType ) do { case "MissileLauncher"; case "RocketLauncher"; case "LaserDesignator"; case "Binocular" : { _types set [ _forEachIndex, objNull ]; }; }; }; }forEach +_types; _types = _types - [ objNull ]; BIS_fnc_arsenal_data set [ _forEachIndex, _types ]; }forEach +BIS_fnc_arsenal_data; [ "AmmoboxInit", [ this, true ] ] call BIS_fnc_arsenal; 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Reble_45 3 Posted June 17, 2016 I guess maybe I'm missing the issue here. I've had no issues with using the Eden Editor to place an Ammo Box, switch it to a virtual box, and then edit what I want to be available in that box. I've used it with CUP's weapons and don't remember having any issues there. Am I missing something? 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Lukeocyte 7 Posted August 14, 2017 Hey guys, Sorry to resurrect an old thread, but I've tried implementing Alex's script and also tried using the built in virtual arsenal panel in the eden editor and haven't found any other solutions. In both methods the virtual arsenal is correctly limited in what shows up in the category panels on the left as expected. Ie. if I limit to only a .45 pistol then that is all you can see in the virtual arsenal. However if you then load up a previously saved loadout you can essentially bypass this. When I load a preset I've made previously the UI will correctly show presets that have items that are not available in the virtual arsenal by making their text greyed out, however, you can still select them and load up that gear anyway. Is this a bug that's known and have any of you had the same problem? Thanks! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Is this a bug that's known and have any of you had the same problem? Thanks! I dont think there is a way to actually completely disable the buttons. But since the EDEN update there has been an easier way to make a custom virtual arsenal. If you put down a container and go to cargo or something like that, you can switch to the virtual tab and start adding the equipment you want. Once you go to that box it will have the action "Arsena" and once opened you will have the stuff you chose to only show. I can't remember though if it allows you to load previously saved loadouts, I haven't touched the editor in some time so you will have to check yourself.

Lukeocyte 7 Posted August 14, 2017 Hi Alex, Thanks for the response. I did as you said using the virtual tab for an ammo crate and still have the same problem unfortunately. Using the scripted method and the eden editor method both limit your selection in the category tabs on the left, but you can still bypass this by loading up presets that utilize those restricted items. Sounds like this is a bug? I can't imagine BIS would have made this intentional. Anyone else having this issue? Thanks! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Hi, @Larrow I'm trying to remove/blacklist all vanilla items from the default Arsenal on a Liberation 1944 mission that uses a custom GUI, can I do this by just using the fn_Blacklist.sqf on its own and adding all vanilla classnames? As there is no arsenal/ammo box and the arsenal is called via a trigger, not a static object. As you can probably realise I'm a noob when it comes to scripting and what little I did know I've forgotten, as I took a few years off from the game so please dumb down any response.
