squeeze 22 Posted November 14, 2005 "this is only a Help Tool for DAC " This is just to good, I've just got back into ofp when the news of ArmA was released and the addons and tools are amazing, I've really taken notice of the mapfact site and if Xcam is anything to go by then DAC is going to rock....

silola 1086 Posted November 15, 2005 hi, DAC slowly approaches the release and today I had a small one Idea. Who has to the desire and some time, could perform a small contribution to DAC :-) How you have certainly got, DAC can access arbitrarily many Addon units if they are deposited. However, at the moment only few Addons are deposited, because this is very time-consuming. Everybody which would like to find again certain units in DAC, if something can prepare here to make DAC still bigger. What exactly is to be done? There are 4 Arrays in which the unity types are filed. This Arrays must be filled only with valid unities. This is everything. These 4 Arrays will get all one unequivocal number (ID). Then DAC can load every ID in a zone and generate the suitable units there. Here two examples: <table border="0" align="center" width="95%" cellpadding="0" cellspacing="0"><tr><td>Code Sample </td></tr><tr><td id="CODE">;\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\ #Unit_Config_1 ;/////////////////////////// _Unit_Pool_S = ["SoldierWCrew","SoldierWPilot","OfficerW","Soldierwlaw","Soldierwb","Soldierwg","Soldierwmg"......."] _Unit_Pool_V = ["Jeep","Truck5t","Truck5tOpen"] _Unit_Pool_T = ["M1Abrams","Bradley","M60","Vulcan","JeepMG"] _Unit_Pool_A = ["Cobra","AH64","Ch47D","UH60"] ;\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\ #Unit_Config_215 ;/////////////////////////// _Unit_Pool_S = ["BWMOD_CrewT","BWMOD_HeloPilot","BWMOD_Officer","BWMOD_Soldier","BWMOD_Medic","BWMOD_MG3Gunner"....."] _Unit_Pool_V = ["BWMOD_MAN5tgl","BWMOD_MAN7tgl","BWMOD_MAN10tgl"] _Unit_Pool_T = ["BWMOD_Leo1A5","BWMOD_Wiesel","BWMOD_Marder_Milan","BWMOD_Dingo_GMG","BWMOD_Fennek","BWMOD_Leo2A4"] _Unit_Pool_A = ["BWMOD_EC135","BWMOD_BO105PAH1","BWMOD_BO105VBH"] _Unit_Pool_S = Soldiers _Unit_Pool_V = unarmed vehicles _Unit_Pool_T = armed vehicles _Unit_Pool_A = helicopter The Unit_Config_1 contain, for example, standard west units. In the Unit_Config_215 are, for example, BW Mod units. If an Addon contains only soldiers, it is enough, if only the Array for soldiers is filled... <table border="0" align="center" width="95%" cellpadding="0" cellspacing="0"><tr><td>Code Sample </td></tr><tr><td id="CODE">;\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\ #Unit_Config_200 ;/////////////////////////// _Unit_Pool_S = ["RHS_garr_driver","RHS_garr_driver","RHS_garr_officer","RHS_garr_medic","RHS_garr_soldier"....."] _Unit_Pool_V = [] _Unit_Pool_T = [] _Unit_Pool_A = [] There are 2 default which must be followed: _Unit_Pool_A = only helos allowed _Unit_Pool_S = The first 3 entries are reserved: The 1-st entry should be a soldier of the type Crew The 2-nd entry should be a soldier of the type Pilot The 3-rd entry should be a soldier of the type Leader In the case of doubt, or if an Addon these special units does not offer, you can use there standard units. From the 4-th entry all units possibly. It would be nice if here a few Configs appeared, then I could deposit in DAC. I hope, the description is not too complicated. DAC is grateful for every new Config number;-) thanks and bye silola Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
mcpxxl 2 Posted November 16, 2005 Ok if there is some interest i will put my little helper Tool here. It is smal Delphi-Prg. With it you can make as Sample the Soldier really fast. 1.) Ok you will go normal into your Mission Editor and place the needed Soldiers on the map. 2.) Then save your Mission normal (I use the name of the Troops as Filename)... 3.) After you made all the Types of Troops you want ,start this little helper and browse to your Mission.sqs . 4.) Aktivate Read an thats it. Prg will create a mission.txt File, where the String for DAC resides. So i made the Soldier Configs for this Types: "About 100 Configs  " ;------------------------------ ;   Dynamic-AI-Creator        ;------------------------------ ;   Script by Silola          ;   05 / 2005             ;   silola@mapfact.net        ;                      ;   Aditional Unit Config      ;   07 / 2005 MCPXXL       ;======================= ;                      ;                      ;   Aditional Unit Config      ;     ;   10 -  42 FDF 1.3         ;   50 -  67 CSLA2.1      ;   60 -  94 BAS        ;                ;  110 - 112 USMC (MTCO)    ;  115 - 127 IRAQ/IRAN     ;  140 - 158 LSR        ;  160 - 178 LSR JAM      ;  179 - 179 LSR Seal 0.5   ;  200 - 214 RHS+Naval     ;                ;====================== As Sample: <table border="0" align="center" width="95%" cellpadding="0" cellspacing="0"><tr><td>Code Sample </td></tr><tr><td id="CODE"> ;\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\ #Unit_Config_147 ;/////////////////////////// ;##################################################### ;EDITOR West LSR US SpecOPs Des Ranger ;addOns[]={"lsr_rang","lsr_sfsnip","lsr_rang90"}; ;##################################################### You can see EDITOR There i used the Name of the Editor Fields The Missionname was then something like W-LSR-SPEC-DES-RANG So i you want us ? Feel free to call  us. As i said, i made the Soldier Configs and there are only Standard Vehicles inside the Configs. I would be a real advance if someone would make The vehicles armed unarmed air. At this Point i will announce, that we plan an extra Threat on MAPFACT for Especiality this Config Strings, to make updates on further Versions of DAC and Zonewriter for DAC.  Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

silola 1086 Posted November 16, 2005 hi, the Arrays can include with arbitrarily many entries. With the Array "_Unit_Pool_S" becomes from the 4-th entry by random which unity is generated, because the first 3 entries are reserved Also double entries can be done of course, around to raise likelyhood for this type. This counts to all Arrays. Here an example with the Array "_Unit_Pool_T": <table border="0" align="center" width="95%" cellpadding="0" cellspacing="0"><tr><td>Code Sample </td></tr><tr><td id="CODE">_Unit_Pool_T = ["M1Abrams","Bradley","M60","Vulcan"] In this example every type was put down once, therefore if there is for every typ a 25-percent likelyhood. <table border="0" align="center" width="95%" cellpadding="0" cellspacing="0"><tr><td>Code Sample </td></tr><tr><td id="CODE">_Unit_Pool_T = ["M1Abrams","Vulcan","Bradley","Vulcan","M60","Vulcan"] In this example the type "Vulcan" was put down several times. Now the likelyhood in this example lies at 50 percent for the Vulcan, and 16.67 percent for the other types. If you liked to generate in a zone, for example, excluding Bradleys, if you put on a new Config number (derived from another) and reduces the Arrays to the most necessary.... <table border="0" align="center" width="95%" cellpadding="0" cellspacing="0"><tr><td>Code Sample </td></tr><tr><td id="CODE">;\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\ #Unit_Config_705 ;/////////////////////////// _Unit_Pool_S = ["SoldierWCrew","SoldierWPilot","OfficerW"] _Unit_Pool_V = [] _Unit_Pool_T = ["Bradley"] _Unit_Pool_A = [] With it you have put on an additional Config, with which you in a zone excluding Bradleys can generate, because the random admits no other unities. (The first 3 entries in the _Unit_Pool_S are always required) A good idea is, from a Masterconfig (a Config which contains all unities of an Addon) to derive other Configs, around on this way several constellations to create. @Squ33z3 wrong... <table border="0" align="center" width="95%" cellpadding="0" cellspacing="0"><tr><td>Code Sample </td></tr><tr><td id="CODE">;\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\ #Unit_Config_900 ;/////////////////////////// _Unit_Pool_S = ["OTW_HALO_soldier","SoldierWPilotHG","OfficerW","Soldi erWSteyr","SoldierWMG","SoldierWXMS","SoldierWG36a",&qu ot;SoldierWB","SoldierWSniper","SoldierWLAW","SoldierWPilot& quot;,"HeavyGW"] _Unit_Pool_V = [] _Unit_Pool_T = [] _Unit_Pool_A = [] right... <table border="0" align="center" width="95%" cellpadding="0" cellspacing="0"><tr><td>Code Sample </td></tr><tr><td id="CODE">;\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\ #Unit_Config_900 ;/////////////////////////// _Unit_Pool_S = ["OTW_HALO_soldier","SoldierWPilotHG","OfficerW","SoldierWSteyr","SoldierWMG","SoldierWXMS","SoldierWG36a","SoldierWB","SoldierWSniper","SoldierWLAW"] _Unit_Pool_V = [] _Unit_Pool_T = [] _Unit_Pool_A = [] bye silola Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
mcpxxl 2 Posted November 16, 2005 By the way ... Most of them are around 12 Men in each Type of Group ... as Sample LSR Desert Rangers or LSR Desert Rangers I would not mix these Groups and made one for every kind of Soldier Here are some Screens from the Prg First the Filenames from Missions: Then how this Tool looks .... ( Sorry for only German ) Buttons are for: Search (suchen) the Mission Activate the search (Zeichenkette suchen) And EXIT (Ende) You do not need to go Out if you want make more then one config. The Prg places a file named output.txt into the activated Mission Folder ... And the the Outpustring with all Infos you need About what ADDONS are needet and the String of Units ready for Copy and Paste in DAC_UNITS And here is a link to this Tool At the time i used it, i did not think about a public version. But i will change it if needed Link to the Tool Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

silola 1086 Posted November 17, 2005 hi, @ag_smith: Thanks for your contribution You can put down this jeep presumably on both arrays. These arrays are questioned differently on crew... _Unit_Pool_T = driver, gunner, commander _Unit_Pool_V = driver, gunner, cargo This means that vehicles "driver" and "gunner" have, in both Arrays can be used. In addition, the difference is, that the units of the vehicles from the Array "_Unit_Pool_V" get out in her waypoints to explore the closer area and ... these vehicles use no regular crew unities. Therefore, the Driver and the Gunner are "normal" units. But then for an armed jeep that is okay bye silola Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
squeeze 22 Posted November 17, 2005 I've only got the latest ffur packs installed and just worked out that all units have the default names, so i have nothing to add. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
mcpxxl 2 Posted November 17, 2005 Do they have the Names in Mission Editor and in Mission.sqs also then it is ok ... By searching for BUGS in my Action-HUD i often wonder that the Name showing by " Typeofthis" was sometimes different. But if it is , as you say "we will see it in a short Time i think" @Silola we should place a Threat at MAPFACT for UNIT_Configs shortly ! @AG Smith thx too !
