I seem to be having issues trying to addWeaponCargo or setFuel using the init line on any spawned vehicle, let alone set a name for the vehicle and use the command line to do it.

Any ideas?

Any ideas?

I tryed a setfuel and it is working, here what i did step by step

-Switching in "Editor" mod to show name and init options,

-Created a empty hmv named : test ,place it in 2D on the map.

-Then in the command line i typed : test setfuel 0;

-I clicked "Ok" and then the vehicle fuel got down.

Let me know if you still encountered this issue or how did you get it. thank

Setfuel worked using this method. Init line did not. However, if you or someone else enters the vehicle before you enter this command, the vehicle will no longer react to commands using the cmd line.

veh addWeaponCargo ["x",x]; Did not work with either methods.

-I will take look for the init field not initialized correctly.

-On my test my hmv was still reacting to my command if i was in and after i was out

-AddweaponCargo will not work at all in the cmd line, this is a local command that is not broadcasted to all client. I will take a look if it would not be better to run the cmd line stuff on all client instead of the server only

Can you make in next version or update VTS with Namalsk island?

[slayertom 0]

Pip12345, you can adpat the VTS to any islands. Look at the first message of the topic for an explanation.

I actually use VTS beta 6 on Avgani and Afghan village and it s really a pleasure.

Good work L'etranger.

[l etranger 5]

Well i did it for Namalsk too, redownload the package from my url ;)

[mugaben 10]

I love this. Really nice work!

I might get yelled at here, but we use this in my team and we have alot of custom weapons. Usually, we just add a ammo script but it seems like you made it force default on any crate or something? Is there anyway to override an ammocrate, so we can play this wonderful work with our own gear?

But thanks! Really genious piece of work!

If you are using ACE mod (wich in the mission, override the vanilla crates), you can just modify \mods\config\factions\addons ace_x_init.sqf

ace_goodies define what is put in the spawned crates.

if you don't use ACE, the crate will stay vanillone so you can edit them directly from the editor

[dmarkwick 261]

Gonza/L etranger, can you describe the nature of the shadow bug fix? I occasionally see this too even on scratch test missions, but I haven't noticed a common reason.

Gonza/L etranger, can you describe the nature of the shadow bug fix? I occasionally see this too even on scratch test missions, but I haven't noticed a common reason.

I think (not sure) that was caused by spawning player too high in the sky (100 000 meters) no the players start lower (10 000) and it seam the bug is gone

[mugaben 10]

When respawning after revive times out or no one nearby to revive. "To base" respawn just goes down in left corner, in the water for west side. East side spawns on a empty island.

Excellent work guys. Keep it up !

[WildBill 0]

L etranger,

When using VTE Beta 7 with the latest ACE addons you cannot put on earplugs, glasses, gas masks, etc after switching classes. You can use these items before you switch classes, but not after. You can also use the items if you die and respawn as your original class, but if you once again change classes you will not be able to use the items.

Thanks.
