    Hi Haleks !

    I noticed that, for playing ambient music, you are using a sleep command to wait for a track to finish before playing the next one. I believe that method is limited, since it causes problems for mission makers if they want to play a custom track at specific moments of the mission. In fact, your ambient music will "cut" the custom track once the sleep command is done.

     

    That is why I'd recommand you to use a music event handler to check if a song is done playing.

    I'd appreciate if you could make that modification to your otherwise amazing mod !

     

     

    That's actually very right, this reason kept me back from adding custom music/songs on my missions with ambient music enabled.

    Next episode idea : how cool would it be to play as a mutant able to mind-control any human or animal close to him?

      Reveal hidden contents

    And turn them into zombies afterwards.

     

     

    Like the controllers from stalker, that sounds neat, we really need mutants!

    @haleks i got an error on the createFireEffect function of yours, nothing major i believe, line 66 Undefined variable in expression _unit 

      

    waitUntil {({_x distance _unit < 700} count (allPlayers - entities "HeadlessClient_F")) isEqualTo 0};
//possible fix?
waitUntil {({_x distance player or _pos < 700} count (allPlayers - entities "HeadlessClient_F")) isEqualTo 0};

    However, I have another issue: The mission I'm making have me (and a few friends later) spawning in a boat in random locations at the beginning. When I enable MP persistency, I spawn under water at grid 0,0,0, at mission start, but the spawn works nicely when I disable this feature. Any ideas maybe ? Thanks !

     

    Can you disable the vehicles caching system from the module and test your mission again w or w/o the MP persistency. As far as I remember there isn't a specific way to exclude vehicles from the function atm.

    Please report back.

    Hello! you can also do this: works well with ravage... 

    {
removeAllWeapons _x;
removeAllItems _x;
removeAllAssignedItems _x;
removeUniform _x;
removeVest _x;
removeBackpack _x;
removeHeadgear _x;
removeGoggles _x;
[_x] call RVG_fnc_AddGear;
[_x] call RVG_fnc_AddWeapon;
[_x] call RVG_fnc_AddLoot;
//Force NVG item
_x linkItem "NVGoggles_INDEP"; } forEach units _bandits;

     

    Maybe assign them a combat animation, this is very flexible tbh

      

    {
removeAllWeapons _x;
removeAllItems _x;
removeAllAssignedItems _x;
removeUniform _x;
removeVest _x;
removeBackpack _x;
removeHeadgear _x;
removeGoggles _x;
//Add random gear for guarding units and sets animation state
[_x] call RVG_fnc_AddGear;
[_x] call RVG_fnc_AddWeapon;
[_x] call RVG_fnc_AddLoot; 
[_x,"WATCH","ASIS"] call BIS_fnc_ambientAnimCombat; } forEach units _bandits;

    If there a specific code I can add to animals manually placed on the map, where they can be properly harvested for meat?

     

    Name the script and call it from your init.sqf 

    while {true} do {
_pos = [getPosATL player, 100, 400, 2, 0, 100, 0] call BIS_fnc_findSafePos;

_eastGrp = createGroup east;
for "_i" from 0 to random 2 do {
	_type = ["Sheep_random_F", "Hen_random_F", "Cock_random_f", "Rabbit_F", "Cock_white_F"] call BIS_fnc_selectRandom;
 	_unit = _eastGrp createUnit [_type, _pos, [], 1, "FORM"];
	_unit setVariable ["BIS_fnc_animalBehaviour_disable", true];
	_unit setSpeaker "NoVoice";
        _unit disableAI "FSM";
	_unit disableAI "AIMINGERROR";
	_unit disableAI "SUPPRESSION";

	_unit disableAI "TARGET";
	_unit setCombatMode "BLUE";
	_unit setBehaviour "CARELESS";

    Does anyone know if the bandit camp script and the rvgFill script still work?  

     

    Bandit camps by trigger is literally broken, AI will spawn but they will just standing there without aggroing or anything. rvgFill still works ok though.

    Tried to add a backpack to the loot table. Not sure if I did something wrong lol.

    Game throws these two at me and no backpacks spawn. Very annoying lol.

     

    I'm kinda sure you try to add the backpack on the wrong script, 

    It's either here or there: 

    "\ravage\code\scripts\system\gear_list.sqf";
"\ravage\code\rvgLoot\lootLists.sqf";

    had a similar feeling in the beginning, but than i realized that the updated loot system is much more immersive ... it breaks with the rather unsatisfying routine of checking each building. it now simply looks and feels more post apocalyptic. 

     

    A work around I did find to fix my old scenarios is to place extra lootpiles e.g. Trash piles next to the buildings that do not or rarly spawn loot "containers" anymore. The script knows which building is next for each pile and spawns loot which would have spawned inside the given building. This is just a small fix working for specific missions ik ...

     

    I noticed that with my Esseker and Redux missions as well, i noticed that no loot like luggages etc are spawning inside buildings anymore, is there something i have to do because im kinda lost right now.

    Hey everyone, is anyone getting a dependancy in missions if you have Namalsk loaded?

    I made a mission the other day on Bystrica and when I tried loading it I was getting a missing addon "NS_A2" or something like that which was connected to Namalsk Map. I'm not sure if Namalsk assets are available in the editor and I accidentally used them or if the map itself does put dependencies in missions.

     

     

     

    Also any plans to upload this map to the workshop, it is literally the only map in our modset that isn't on the workshop.

     

    Map does leave a dependency if you have loaded in your mission, even without the need of use any of the map assets.

     if anyone else gets that memory error bug

     

    After Windows 10 creators update i was dealing with memory errors out of nowhere, while i didn't had that problem in the past and with a beefy system i was really confused, it turned out it was my page file size was changed somehow.

     

    -If anyone has the same problem on win 10 all you can do is go to Control Panel then choose System, Advanced System Settings, Advanced Tab, on Perfomance section choose settings, then a new window will pop up (perfomance options), there go to Advanced, Virtual Memory, Change and choose "Automatically manage paging file size for all drives".

     

    While this might wont be a fix, it might help some.

    Hi,

     

    I find colour filter glitch or bug.... When I aim through any colimator like RCO, ARCO, Holo.... my screen become darker and I'm not able to see anything through it. This problem occurs at late hours(or in bad weather conditions) and WITHOUT NVG. If I turn NVG on, problem is gone, but NVGs are really rare in this mod :down:. I prefer playing withour colour filter but I want you to know this. Here is screenshot http://steamcommunity.com/profiles/76561198305015162/screenshot/830196727536374129

     

    That have been said, setting HDR lighting to LOW in video settings tends to eliminate the effect.

    It is not part of CUP but CUP contains a lot of general and some terrain specific fixed to make old A2 terrain working as they are, including Podagorsk. CUP even checks such A2 terrains like Podagorsk for compatibility before releasing updates.

    You really only need the A2 Podagorsk (from Armaholic) and CUP TP and you are fine and most likely get an even more up-to-date version than the workshop upload.

     

     

    Original author was Goeth and the FDF Mod.

     

    Well probably issues like itemscopeinfo were fixed, also ui icons were added and probably other stuff which im unaware or cant remember but as it looks like it got taken down because it was a reupload with fixed "issues".

    I'm pretty sure I#ve used that version in A3 before - but certainly not recently so maybe it is outdated information.

     

    It might be possible for you to make a supplemental addon.... if you can work out what the changes were, then place those changes into an addon that affects the original map version.

     

    Thanks ill give it a try but i'll never be sure if map's state will ever be the same (old vs new one).

    -I doubt that. CUP Terrains is what upgraded Podagorsk to be compatible with A3.

    -Without knowing the SteamWS entry you are refering to,

    -Who was the author of that SteamWS entry?

     

    Nevertheless: Podagorsk works perfectly in conjunction with CUP Terrains Core.

     

    Unless im really mistaken, podagorsk is neither located on cup maps or cwa terrains pack so im really unsure how its been updated to be compatible with A3 since if its not a part of the mod.

     

    Name was Podagorsk in WS and was the only "legit" copy of that on the workshop which sadly im unable to reach any informations about the author as well.
