Description:
Because ArmA's "sleep" command isnt working proper in multiplayer (for example: "sleep 600;" on a server can actually "be" 800 seconds or even more on overloaded servers) - I wrote this small extension for ArmA 2 which can get system date & time, and count time in seconds between specific calls using windows system date & time.
This will be useful for example: for multiplayer mission makers to start some side-missions every 10 minutes...
Usage:
Just put blend-time.dll inside any of your server addons folder or create one (i.e. <Arma 2 Folder>\@time\blend-time.dll).
To get current date and time:
_dateTime = "blend-time" callExtension "date";
This will return an array:
["date", <DAY>, <MONTH>, <YEAR>, <HOUR>, <MINUTE>, <SECOND>];
for example:
["date", 19, 12, 2012, 04, 21, 09]; // This means: 19 of December 2012 04:21:09
To start time count use:
_startCount = "blend-time" callExtension "set";
If everything is ok the answer will be:
["set", 0];
To show how much seconds elapsed after "set" call:
_timeElapsed = "blend-time" callExtension "check";
If everything is OK and timer was started with "set" call - this will return an array:
["check", <ELAPSED TIME IN SECONDS>];
To start a new time count call "blend-time" callExtension "set"; again.
All call arguments are case sensitive!

Sadly but it is Russia.. its hard to do anything if you are not Russian...
The simpliest way is to contact his web-site hosting administrator / game server hosting provider.

Hello alpha-kilo.
Thank you for your observations!
-beta instead of -mods is necesarry for Steam users with arma 2 and arma 2 oa in a separated folders.
In further updates I'll add option to edit some buttons like "Tushino Ready", browser URL and add manager profiles but for now as I wrote in first post it has been made for Tushino.
About updates - there are some speed limit restrictions (or even shutdown on traffic overload) on Tushino FTP between 20:00-00:00 GMT +4 in case of 100-200 players playing on Tushino servers (especially on weekends), also check app's file write permissions (run as administrator).
And also I planned to make english version of changelog :)

Hello :)
About half a year ago I started to create an application to simplify addons update procedure for one ACE PvP ArmA 2 server.
Before we used Yoma AddonSync so its compatible with Yoma repository servers.
Since that time I regularry updated it: improved functionality, UI, added new features, launcher, added English language UI support and so on...
So today I've decided to create a tread on BI Forums and share this app with everyone.
Hope you like it! ;)
Features:
[ADDONS UPDATER]
- Full MD5 file checksum generation with fast file compare option (for next addons check)
- Compatible with Yoma AddonSync update servers
- Works with file attributes
- Check addons and update in two clicks
- Tushino Serious Games PVP server presets
[ARMA 2 LAUNCHER]
- External addons support (for example you can use addons from your external HHD/SSD or USB drive)
- Fully compatible with all ArmA 2 versions (OA/CO/RFT)
- Steam compatible (also you can run ArmA 2 with stem overlay)
- Beta patch checker and update with one click (no need to download beta rar, extract and install)
- Automatically checks and creates ACE userconfig files
- Automatic updater included
- Russian and English User Interfaces
- Windows 8 compatible

ArmA 2 BattlEye GUID Whitelist Tool
This console tool is connecting to ArmA 2 server using BattlEye v2 protocol and checking every player's GUID if it is whitelisted.
You can choose one of three actions, and setup messages.
Features:
- 3 type of actions to not whitelisted players:
-- warn in global chat
-- kick
-- ban
--- ban for X minutes
--- ban permanent
- all GUIDs are stored in separate guids.txt file
- connection info, messages and misc stored in settings.txt
- console commands for adding/removing GUIDS, refreshing whitelist from the file.
-
You can write extension (http://community.bistudio.com/wiki/Extensions) server library for ArmA 2 which will use Teamspeak's serverquery to get list of online users.

What about scripts, strings with quotes inside?
Like: 5 execVM "\Something\" ?
I know that I can do something like:
5 execVM \something\
But I have more difficult scripts inside scripts.txt and want to know how to include quotes inside Script Detection..
Can I do something like double quotes? Are they will be replaced to single automatically? :)
Check if vehicle's cargo indexed position is empty?
in ARMA 2 & OA : ADDONS - Configs & Scripting
Posted
Hello.
I'm writing some VBS2-like vehicle interaction menu for A2.
Job is almost done but I want to add empty positions check to change images in dialog.
I've used: commander _veh, driver _veh, gunner _veh, and turret [_veh, [_index]] but there is no cargo _veh command to know if certain position is empty.
emptyPositions nor crew cant solve this problem.
Will be glad for any help.
Thank you.
P.S.:
Little video of what is done now:
