mikey74 186 Posted November 28 (edited) ok sense the new US military rifle coming in replacing the m4 is all suppressed. I wrote a script to make sure everyone of them is suppressed. This script version requires the new Expeditionary Forces: If you are creating a mission simple paste in your init.sqf. You can replace the _supressor "ef_snds_mxar" and the other classnames with what ever you like. Enjoy! 🙂 Spoiler { private _entity = _x; // Get the player's primary weapon private _weapon = primaryWeapon _entity; // Define the suppressor item (for example, a suppressor for a 5.56mm weapon) //_muzzles = [PrimaryWeapon _entity,"muzzle"] call BIS_fnc_compatibleItems; <<<<<--- this works BTW ---> //_muzzles params [["_suppressor",""]];// "ef_snds_mxar_coy" if (tolower _weapon find "_mx" >= 0) then { _suppressor = switch (true) do { case (tolower _weapon find "_black" >= 0): { "ef_snds_mxar"; // Black suppressor }; case (tolower _weapon find "_khk" >= 0): { "ef_snds_mxar_khk"; // Khaki suppressor }; case (tolower _weapon find "_snd" >= 0): { "ef_snds_mxar_sand"; // Sand suppressor for tan variants }; case (tolower _weapon find "coy" >= 0): { "ef_snds_mxar_coy"; // Sand suppressor for tan variants }; default { "ef_snds_mxar_sand"; // Default to black if no match }; }; // Get the current muzzle attachment _currentMuzzle = ((primaryWeaponItems _entity) select 0);//currentMuzzle _entity; // Check if a suppressor is already attached if (_currentMuzzle == "") then { // If no suppressor is attached, add the suppressor to the weapon _entity addPrimaryWeaponItem _suppressor; }; }; } forEach allunits;//units blufor; addMissionEventHandler ["EntityCreated", { params ["_entity"]; if !((vehicle _entity) isKindOf "CaManBase") exitWith { }; // Get the player's primary weapon private _weapon = primaryWeapon _entity; // Define the suppressor item (for example, a suppressor for a 5.56mm weapon) //_muzzles = [PrimaryWeapon _entity,"muzzle"] call BIS_fnc_compatibleItems; <<<<<--- this works BTW ---> //_muzzles params [["_suppressor",""]];// "ef_snds_mxar_coy" if (tolower _weapon find "_mx" >= 0) then { _suppressor = switch (true) do { case (tolower _weapon find "_black" >= 0): { "ef_snds_mxar"; // Black suppressor }; case (tolower _weapon find "_khk" >= 0): { "ef_snds_mxar_khk"; // Khaki suppressor }; case (tolower _weapon find "_snd" >= 0): { "ef_snds_mxar_sand"; // Sand suppressor for tan variants }; case (tolower _weapon find "coy" >= 0): { "ef_snds_mxar_coy"; // Sand suppressor for tan variants }; default { "ef_snds_mxar_sand"; // Default to black if no match }; }; // Get the current muzzle attachment _currentMuzzle = ((primaryWeaponItems _entity) select 0);//currentMuzzle _entity; // Check if a suppressor is already attached if (_currentMuzzle == "") then { // If no suppressor is attached, add the suppressor to the weapon _entity addPrimaryWeaponItem _suppressor; }; }; }]; Edited November 29 by mikey74 Updated script 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
pierremgi 4886 Posted November 28 This reminds me that I created a module "adapt silencers" for stealth/combat simulation, so AIs automatically mount or dismount the silencer on weapon, depending on the combat status. Just checked, that works with new Expeditionary Forces DLC. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
mikey74 186 Posted November 28 (edited) Yeh I've started pulling up my old scripts and updating them. I'm still not great at coding in arma but much better than I was 10 years ago even with me being a bit rusty. lol Speeking of. I need to update this script. Assuming anyone is really interested in it. I'll keep it updated. Maybe even create a pbo for it if I can remember how. lol Oh the EntityCreated Event Handler is because I use a lot of re-spawning in my self made played missions. I figure I may not be the only one doing this. Edited November 28 by mikey74 clarifying Event handler Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I figure I may not be the only one doing this. EntityCreated EH fires for multiple useless "entities" like rabbit or flies, but also foot prints and so on. So, a decent use of it implies to start by something like: if (_entity isKindOf "CaManBase") then {.... your code }; If you script such code for players only: in initPlayerLocal.sqf: your_fnc_holySilencer = {... }; player call your_fnc_holySilencer; addMissionEventHandler ["entityRespawned", {(_this #0) call your_fnc_holySilencer}]; 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I play more single player type missions. I wrote respawning scripts for aI and player because in single player you just cant. Thanks though. Doubt that would work on what I have wrote. hmmm or would it!?!? May have to test this. Thanks 🙂 Just tested. Nope not on a single-player mission it doesn't work. Thanks for the idea thought! 🙂 Edited November 29 by mikey74 on second thought. Test results Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Thanks 🙂 Just tested. Nope not on a single-player mission it doesn't work. Thanks for the idea thought! 🙂 In SP, there is no respawn. I duno what you wrote for that. Mine (SP Simple Respawn module) makes the player fall unconscious, then aware (+ some options). So, your unit remains unchanged and you don't need anything to re-run. For AIs, I wrote some other modules in this case, and yes, I re-create same unit as the one who died. I manage this "SP respawn" system (MP also) with options same loadout as at start / same loadout as in death. I'm using get/setUnitLoadout commands for that. You just have to get the loadout once the silence is added, for example. Anyway, your script is working..., even for Vanilla BLUFOR equipped with any MX rifle.

pierremgi 4886 Posted November 29 So, perhaps, you just have to call your silencer script just before : _unit setVariable ["UnitData", _unitData]; and that's all. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
