Multiplayer Framework

[TemichSablin 10]

I have been creating some kind of admin menu (Thanks, Dr.Eyeball ;) )for clan-based missions. But some scripts in my menu are running locally. I was @ OFPEC and have been pointed at MP Framework by BIS. I checked the Biki, tried the examples, all seemed right what I was looking for. But there is a problem. I know exactly how to make use of examples (rHINT ones) but i need more info on the use of the other commands. I tried locally executing RemoveAllWeapons command with a numerous parameters, tried everything - didn't seem to work. Now i am asking if there is any help on this "RE" stuff except the biki artcile? And by the way if you have any more examples on that please post 'em here.

Thanks in advance.

Regards, Temich.

Did you look into the BI modules and missions?

They use the MPF all over. :)

[TemichSablin 10]

Good idea. Thanks for reply.

If i lure smth out there i might post it here or @ biki.

Stupid question but how exactly do I use the Multiplayer Framework module? It doesn't show up in the module list in the editor.

It isn't a module, it's a uhh. framework. :)

You don't add it to the map, certain things add it to the map. Anything that might use it.

But if you want to initialize it yourself...

	if (isnil "RE") then {[] execVM "\ca\Modules\MP\data\scripts\MPframework.sqf"};

Throw that infront of the script that you'd like to use the MPF in.

Now you can call all the neat little doodads that it offers.

Like a say command in one of my scripts.

_nic = [objNull, _dog, rSAY, "dog_01"] call RE;

Oh. :o

I assumed it was a module since it was in the module category in biki. Thanks. :)

What's wrong with my remote execution? :confused:

[nil,nil,nil,processInitCommands] call RE

I simply want every player to processInitCommands, nothing fancy.

It gives this kind of error in arma2.RPT:

Error in expression <script name () (see MPframework.sqf)",_targetScript];_error = true;};priva>

Error position: <_targetScript];_error = true;};priva>

Error Nicht definierte Variable in Ausdruck: _targetscript

The command itself is executed normally.

[Big_Daddy 10]

try:

_nic = [objNull, unit, rprocessInitCommands] call RE;

and you only have to run it once.

try:

_nic = [objNull, unit, rprocessInitCommands] call RE;

and you only have to run it once.

Umm, it doesn't recognize the variable rprocessInitCommands.

processInitCommands effect is global (as setVehicle init is global). So what be the point? :rolleyes:

Should a gamelogic "server" be created? And then using

[nil, server, r....] call RE

Or is there another MPF way to execute on server only?

Edit: MPF has a BIS_MPF_logic PV'd from server, so this can be used.

I've found a MFP near Canneto ;)

[rejenorst 18]

Just a question:

Does:

MPframework.sqf

Have to be executed on server only or on all clients as well?

[callihn 10]

Does this work in config.cpp as too?

Could you explain the parameters in the array?

[callihn 10]

Would this be what I would want for a fire truck siren?

[nil,_firetruck,"loc"+"per",rSay,"siren"] call RE;

Not sure I completely understand, but would this play the sound on all players local to the firetruck and those connecting?
