Previous versions of this addon added in a VME Magazine functions dependency to missions that didn't have any Chinese units added. It seemed really superfluous and not necessary. Do current versions of this mod still have that issue?

Is it at all possible to reduce the sensitivity for the pilot NV camera when aiming? I can't seem to get it down to a reasonable level. Also, I'm using ALT + Mouse to aim the thing when flying with a mouth. Is a possible to reduce the sensitivity for this control as well?

Yes, I'm aware that I only need the bikeys, but I'd like the server to suggest that people load shactac when they try to connect to ArmA3 launcher, as well as some other mods.

I'm running an ArmA 3 RHS Server at 72.5.195.222. I'd like to suggest STUI mod to be run by players, but not have this mod running on the server. I would prefer to keep many mods like this, soundpacks, and other unneeded mods off of the server, but allow the clients to load them. How do I add mods to the suggested downloads list here, without running them on the server?

Is there any way to disable the voices? They're really annoying in Zeus when running the mod but not playing with Unsung content. They keep screaming random stuff. my group isn't really into AI voices that much.

Do you knoiw what extra information I could provide? Is there a way to get the server to tell me which files are corrupted when I try and joijn the server? If it believes one of my files fails the authenticity check, it should tell me which file, right?

I've just downloaded the latest version of CUP (1.2.0) and installed the keys on my server, both the CUP_CORE and CUP_Maps files are present in the server. However, when I try to join the server running an identical version of CUP as downloaded to the server( with keys and all). I'm instantly kicked out with no message. I've run the server vanilla, and with every other combination of mods to narrow down that this only happens when CUP is included. Error Message is "You were kicked" with no description towards what plugins were erroneous. Server.LOG file shows only "player was disconnected"

I'd like to have a description.ext that changes a mission wide respawn template depending on different circumstances given. If the server is using ACE3, the respawn templates should be as follows respawnTemplatesWest[] = {"Tickets","MenuPosition"}; respawnTemplatesEast[] = {"Tickets","MenuPosition"}; respawnTemplatesGuer[] = {"Tickets","MenuPosition"}; If the server is Vanilla, or otherwise not using ACE3, the respawn templates should be as follows. respawnTemplatesWest[] = {}; respawnTemplatesEast[] = {}; respawnTemplatesGuer[] = {}; If I have to create an addon to this, that's fine, but I would rather simply keeping these constraints to the mission file. Here's what I've done so far __EVAL(if (isClass(configFile >> "cfgPatches" >> "ace_main")) then {RespawnTemplatesWest = {};}) But this returns an Input after endoffile error, and I can't seem to get this to work. Is there a solution, or a workaround> Would I have to create a new respawn template and somehow script this functionality in by hand?

That's all she wrote! Have a like

Used types are "mortar", "recon", "Engineer, Maintenance, Assault, Assault and UAV. These icons do not show up but others do. Here are the troublesome icons. class SupportTeams { id = 8; idtype = 0; side = "WEST"; size = "Platoon"; Type = "Infantry"; Text = "%1 %2 %3"; TextShort = "Support Platoon"; class Mortars { id = 1; idType = 0; size = "Section"; type = "mortar"; Text = "%1 Mortar Battery"; textshort = "Mortars Battery"; }; class Sniper { id = 5; idType = 0; size = "Fireteam"; type = "Recon"; Text = "%1 Sniper Squad"; textshort = "Sierra Team (Sniper)"; }; class Engineer { id = 7; idType = 0; size = "Platoon"; type = "Maintenance"; Text = "7th EOD Platoon"; textshort = "Hades EOD / Engineering"; assets[]={{"B_MRAP_01_F",4}}; class Hades1 { id = 1; idtype = 0; size = "Squad"; type = "Assault"; Text = "1st Combat Engineering Team"; TextShort = "Hades 1"; }; class Hades2 { id = 2; idtype = 0; size = "Squad"; type = "Assault"; Text = "2nd Combat Engineering Team"; TextShort = "Hades 2"; }; }; }; class UAV { id = 1; idType = 0; size = "Section"; type = "UAV"; Text = "%1 %2 Section"; textshort = "UAV Section"; Assets[] = {{"B_UAV_02_F",2}}; };

The solution provided in the second post works. Here is an example for those who want to see it class CFGOrbat { class EXAMPLECFG{ Insignia = __EVAL((__FILE__ select [0, count __FILE__ - 15])+"NS\Imgs\242Logo.paa"); Texture = __EVAL((__FILE__ select [0, count __FILE__ - 15])+"NS\Imgs\242Logo.paa"); colorInsignia[] = {1,1,1,1}; color[] = {1,1,1,1}; }; }; However, I have an additional problem. I would like to put the entire CFGORBAT into a hpp file and then read it with an include. This helps to keep the description.ext down and assist with moving the orbat around. However, when I use the #include command. I can no longer see the image even with this command. Do preprocessor commands like this break down when used with an #include? Is there any way to negotiate this? Here is an example of what I'm trying to accomplish. Description.EXT class CFGOrbat { #include "NS\Orbat.hpp" }; NS\Orbat.Hpp class 242ndNS { Insignia = __EVAL((__FILE__ select [0, count __FILE__ - 13])+"\NS\Imgs\242Logo.paa");; Texture = __EVAL((__FILE__ select [0, count __FILE__ - 13])+"\NS\Imgs\242Logo.paa");; colorInsignia[] = {1,1,1,1}; color[] = {1,1,1,1}; I have attempted to use #define to create the path before the #include, but this does not work. This was my original attempt Description.EXT #define NSIMAGEFILEPATH __EVAL((__FILE__ select [0, count __FILE__ - 15])+"NS\Imgs\242Logo.paa") class CFGOrbat { #include "NS\Orbat.hpp" }; NS\Orbat.hpp class 242ndNS { Insignia = NSIMAGEFILEPATH; Texture = NSIMAGEFILEPATH; colorInsignia[] = {1,1,1,1}; color[] = {1,1,1,1}; };

I'm having this problem as well.

class 242ndNS { Insignia = "\NS\Imgs\242logo.paa"; texture = "\NS\Imgs\242logo.paa"; /*can't get this to work for some reason */ }; Everything works except for the texture. The weird thing is that the Insignia works just fine. I'm not sure why I can't get the texture to appear though The solution provided in the second post works. Here is an example for those who want to see it. However, this is another problem that I'm having. class CFGOrbat { class 242ndNS { Insignia = __EVAL((__FILE__ select [0, count __FILE__ - 15])+"NS\Imgs\242Logo.paa"); Texture = __EVAL((__FILE__ select [0, count __FILE__ - 15])+"NS\Imgs\242Logo.paa"); colorInsignia[] = {1,1,1,1}; color[] = {1,1,1,1}; }; }; However, I have an additional problem.

It's been merged into one campagin

shame that this isn't a dynamic system, it would have been nice to use this to replace nametags. The respawning system and BIS revive seem excellent though
