Respawns in simple coop missions

Recommended Posts

I know how to edit the Description file to allow respawns but when I save my mission to multiplayer there is no description file to edit. So I'm always in the Bird default. What am I doing wrong and how can I allow GROUP respawning to my mission?

Thanks

When you save to multiplayer it exports it to a Pbo file.

To edit the Description file, you need to go into the mission folder located in the 'My Documents' Arma profile

Before you save it to MP

You need to create that one on your own and place in your folder

e.g.

c:\documents and settings\yourname\Arma other profiles\your%20armaName\missions\mymission.intro

It was just an example, you need to place it in the folder which contains the mission.sqm which you are currently editing wink_o.gif

Nope, you need to have an description.ext for each mission and edit them accordingly to what you want the mission to be like and etc.

search the wiki for "description.ext" (without the quotation marks) for more details about this file.

You can add weapons to be handed out before mission starts and etc, real nice tbh!

(dunno if you can set that depending on which side the player has tho' )

btw .intro is Rhamadi island

and .sara is Sahrani island

As Taurus says you need to create a Discription.ext in your mission folder!

A usefull prog to do that can be found Here will create Discription.ext and respawn etc for you! smile_o.gif

Thanks guys for the help using that tool you directed me to it's all going well. Plus the tip on the .sara and .intro helped, it would have taken me awhile to figure that out lol. Why .intro for rhamadi? oh well thanks
