    [_this,"RH_m16a4",10] call BIS_fnc_addWeapon;
[_this,"RH_m9",4] call BIS_fnc_addWeapon;

    How's two lines instead of 16?

    Thanks for your input guys. I did a lot of reading on those functions that already come along with ArmA. Even as I can make my setup scripts much smarter with those functions, I'm still interested in solving my original problem.

    What I want to do, is to define a function in a script and use it in the same script. 

    setupFT_Leader ={
   [_this,"RH_m16a4",10] call BIS_fnc_addWeapon;
   [_this,"RH_m9",4] call BIS_fnc_addWeapon;
   };

setupFT_Grenadier ={
   [_this,"RH_m16a4gl",10] call BIS_fnc_addWeapon;
   };

setupFT_Automatic_Rifleman ={
   [_this,"LMG_mas_M249_F_a",10] call BIS_fnc_addWeapon;
   };

setupFT_Rifleman ={
   [_this,"RH_m16a4",5] call BIS_fnc_addWeapon;
   };

FT1_1_Leader call setupFT_Leader;
FT1_1_Grenadier call setupFT_Grenadier;
FT1_1_Automatic_Rifleman call setupFT_Automatic_Rifleman;
FT1_1_Rifleman call setupFT_Rifleman;

    Running this code, I get the following in the RPT file:

    12:42:33 Error in expression <//FT1_1_Rifleman call setupFT_Rifleman;>
12:42:33   Error position: <//FT1_1_Rifleman call setupFT_Rifleman;>
12:42:33   Error Invalid number in expression
12:42:33 Error in expression <FT1_1_Leader call setupFT_Leader;>
12:42:33   Error position: <setupFT_Leader;>
12:42:33   Error Undefined variable in expression: setupft_leader
12:42:33 Error in expression <FT1_1_Grenadier call setupFT_Grenadier;>
12:42:33   Error position: <setupFT_Grenadier;>
12:42:33   Error Undefined variable in expression: setupft_grenadier
12:42:33 Error in expression <FT1_1_Automatic_Rifleman call setupFT_Automatic_Rifleman;>
12:42:33   Error position: <setupFT_Automatic_Rifleman;>
12:42:33   Error Undefined variable in expression: setupft_automatic_rifleman

    You did it the wrong way round. You need to initialize the functions first and THEN call them:

    I tried that, but goit the same result. Here's the actual code:

    //SETUP FUNCTIONS
setupFT_Leader ={
       removeAllWeapons _this;
       _this addMagazine "30rnd_556x45_STANAG";

    Hi,

    probably a stupid question. I'm trying to make my unit-equipment-setup-scripts a little more efficient. My script looks like this:

    unit1 call setupLeader;
unit2 call setupRifleman;
unit3 call setupMachingunner;
exitWith{};

setupLeader = {//do all the setupcode for Leader};
setupRifleman = {//do all the setupcode for Rifleman};
setupMachingunner = {//do all the setupcode for MG};

    What it does, is that unit1 ends up with the MG-equipment and unit2 and unit3 are untouched.

    What is my basic problem here?

    Where was something similar some time ago. http://forums.bistudio.com/showthread.php?173753-Problem-with-texture

    Funny thing is, that I have the some problem as well for some days. Couldn't figure out what to do. So if you find a solution, I'm more than interested ...

    Ok, I got rid of the shadow problem. Problem was my sat_mask. It is a very high resolution file (10240x10240). I downsized the file to 1024 x 1024 and resized it to 10240 x 10240. Before the resizing it was very fine grained and that was probably the problem.

    Ok, problem still exists.

    Hi,

    some strange things happened to my textures and I can't explain it. Since a view days all my textures (ingame and bulldozer) are in a terrible (mars-like) reddish tone. I'm not aware I changed something into that direction (but who knows what I'm doing). Any ideas what could've caused that? Normally the textures are more white/yellow/sand like. The reddish tone is when you zoom close to the ground (j198_ntc_dirt00_co.paa) and when you zoom very far out (the sat-texture?).

    Hi,

    back in ArmA2 days I made some fences with the WorldTools application. In addition I remember that there was some kind of script or function in V3 itself, that let you make e.g. 50 x fence_piece_1 in a row.

    What are the best ways to make proper fences in ArmA3? Any experiences?

    Hi,

    I'd like to make a desert surface for some parts of my map. Therefore I'd like to produce the vehicles driving over it a lot of dust. Has anyone experience with the "dust" value in the config? The "rough" attribute seems to work pretty fine. Set it to 1.0 and things get bumpy. Sadly I see no effects when I raise the dust parameter.

    Jens

        class j198_ntc_desert_Surface : Default
   {
        files = "j198_ntc_desert_*";
        rough = 0.3;
        dust = 1.0;
        soundEnviron = "sand";
        character = "j198_ntc_desert_Character";
         soundHit = "hard_ground";
   };

    Hi folks,

    another problem I can't find a solution for. The road to success is really hard when you work with TB & friends.

    - 51200 x 51200 m terrain

    - sat and mask come from 4096x4096 jpg images

    - everything seems to be setup as it should be

    When I start bulldozer for the first time, I don't get the usual DOS window where U can see all the new layer files that are produced. Instead I can only see this:

    Image2_zps19983f61.jpg

    After a few seconds the DOS window disappears and bulldozer shows an untextured terrain.

    WHat's strange is, that when I do the same with another terrain, I get the same error. And for this terrain it worked just fine in the past. I'm clueless.

    Any ideas?

    When I run thr Arma3p config file to set up P, when it tries to install buldozer the next line says access denied followed by fail in the next line. press any key to continue. Any fix for this that I am missing?

    Also when I try to run TerrainBuilder in the "P" drive it gives me the path does not exist error. Any way to fix this as well?

    Had similar problems. What did help me, was to remove the tools via steam completly, remove leftovers by hand, reinstall tools via steam and then run Mikeros tool as admin (!) again.

    OK, I reworked my map and have now everything set to 200000e and 0N. Made my roads layer, did a polyline road and set the database entries as desired. The current result is, that I can see the shape of the road on the ingame map, but I get an error on loading the map, that "a3\roads_f\roads_ae\data\surf_roadtarmac_main_roa d_end_ca.paa" is missing. Once the map is loaded, I can see the road ingame, but of course the texture is missing.

    Any ideas?

    For some reasons TB exports my roads only to roads_polylines and roads_polygons.

    Anyone with the same problem????

    Not sure if I get you right, but I had to create the "roads.shp" file by hand first (in the data/roads directory). Then I could export the road shapes from TB into that file.

    But I got a problem by my own as well: Basically this tutorial works for me without any problems. But only with the abc_sample map, which is set to Zone: 31 East: 200000.000 North: 0.

    My own map is in another Zone and has different values for easting/northing, and I can't change these values as soon as they are set in the mapframe.

    So any chance I can get the roads to work with my different coordinates?
