I am currently in the process of making a GUI that allows you to customize the pylons of a plane. Everything works up until this one part. (This is not the only thing in the GUI, just one function). params["_indexWeapon"]; _weaponToEquip = currentWeapons select (_indexWeapon + 2); _planeToEquip = currentObject; _pylonToEquipIndex = currentPylonNum + 1; systemChat str _pylonToEquipIndex; systemChat str _planeToEquip; systemChat _weaponToEquip; (_planeToEquip) setPylonLoadOut [_pylonToEquipIndex, _weaponToEquip, true, []]; For some reason, in the setPylonLoadOut, the _weaponToEquip does not work. So say it equals "PylonRack_1Rnd_AAA_missiles". I get the error in game, "No entry 'bin\config.bin/CfgMagazines."PylonRack_1Rnd_AAA_missiles"'. But if I change the code to, (_planeToEquip) setPylonLoadOut [_pylonToEquipIndex, "PylonRack_1Rnd_AAA_missiles", true, []]; It works if I use that code. I can't seem to figure out why this is and what a fix for it might be. If anyone has any ideas why this is and what a fix might be, I will be extremely grateful for your input. Thanks in advance!

Hey all, I need some help with creating a trigger which produces an image on the players screen for a few seconds and plays some sound affects. Trying to produce a hallucination or flashback affect. What I think needs to happen is have in the trigger (on activation) null = [] execVM "images\flashback.sqf"; playmusic "example1"; or playsound "example1"; But I am not sure what to put in the flashback.sqf to make the image display. I am new to scripting so any help would be awesome. Peace TPM

I'm trying to count everyplayer that's playing as OPFOR. My counting script does not throw any errors, however the hint script doesn't recognizes _AllPrisoner. Obviously i'm doing something wrong and i hope someone can help me. _allplayers = allPlayers; _allPrisoner = {if (side _x == east) then {_allPrisoner = _allPrisoner + _x};} forEach _allplayers; hint format ["Test%1",_allPrisoner ]; -
solved (Solved) Units created with createvehicle won't move.
draoth posted a topic in ARMA 3 - MISSION EDITING & SCRIPTING
Hello everyone i'm trying to create a unit that spawns in a vehicle and goes to a random location. But when i spawn the unit with createvehicle it won't move... *I tried waypoints and domove* I've done a lot of trial and error and can't figure it out. It's probably something very stupid since i'm not that familiar with scripTing in general. this is my code that is being called with an addaction: _Location = [] call BIS_fnc_randomPos; _Road = [_Location, 1000, []] call BIS_fnc_nearestRoad; _Destination = getPos _Road; _group = createGroup civilian; _AI = nil; _AI2 = nil; _AI3 = nil; _Pass = selectrandom [1,2,3]; _AIChoose = selectRandom ["C_man_1","C_man_polo_1_F_euro","C_man_polo_6_F_euro","C_Nikos_aged","C_Nikos_aged","C_man_sport_1_F_afro"]; _VEHChoose = selectRandom ["C_Offroad_01_F","C_Offroad_01_repair_F","C_Truck_02_covered_F","C_Truck_02_transport_F","C_Hatchback_01_F","C_Hatchback_01_sport_F","C_SUV_01_F","C_Van_01_transport_F","C_Van_01_box_F","C_Van_01_fuel_F","C_Offroad_02_unarmed_F"]; _veh = createVehicle [_VEHChoose, position Pris1, [], 0,""]; //Add passengers _AI = createVehicle [_AIChoose, position Pris1, [], 0, "CAN_COLLIDE"]; _AI setBehaviour "Aware"; _AI doMove (_Destination); _AI enableSimulation true; if (_Pass > 1) then { _AIChoose = selectRandom ["C_man_1","C_man_polo_1_F_euro","C_man_polo_6_F_euro","C_Nikos_aged","C_Nikos_aged","C_man_sport_1_F_afro"]; _AI2 = createVehicle [_AIChoose, position Pris1, [], 0, "CAN_COLLIDE"]; _AI2 setBehaviour "Aware"; _AI2 enableSimulation true; }; if (_Pass > 2) then { _AIChoose = selectRandom ["C_man_1","C_man_polo_1_F_euro","C_man_polo_6_F_euro","C_Nikos_aged","C_Nikos_aged","C_man_sport_1_F_afro"]; _AI3 = createVehicle [_AIChoose, position Pris1, [], 0, "CAN_COLLIDE"]; _AI3 setBehaviour "Aware"; _AI3 enableSimulation true; }; //Add Movein _AI moveInAny _veh; if (_Pass > 1) then { _AI2 moveInAny _veh; }; if (_Pass > 2) then { _AI3 moveInAny _veh; }; I hope someone can help me with this rookie problem.

dediserver [Solved] ArmA 3 Dedicated Server > Missing Addons
JFisher posted a topic in ARMA 3 - TROUBLESHOOTING
Hey Guys, So im trying to setup a dedicated server also to play on with my group. I use Ubuntu server and get the following problem when i load the mission: Even tho the mods are loaded: I made all files small letters already (removed capitals) and this is my startup line: ./arma3server -mod="mods\@cba_a3;mods\@cupterrainscore;mods\@cupterrainscwa;mods\@cupterrainsmaps;mods\@lingordingorisland;mods\@rhsafrf;mods\@rhsgref;mods\@rhssaf;mods\@rhsusaf;mods\@task_force_radio;" -port=2302 -name="FisherServer" -config="server.cfg" The folders contain the PBO files that are in the error, I tried to fix it for 5 hours already :/ Anyone have an idea where this is going wrong? -
Hi all. I am currently trying to make use of the parameters to dynamically add tickets to the Respawn Tickets Module so that players can adjust the number of tickets for their own session to control their overall time-frame. Currently, how the game works is based on sector Bleeding rather than actual respawn. Basically when sectors are taken to a certain percentage, the tickets will start bleeding. So player respawn isn't taken into account for the reduction in tickets. Module is set to 250 each per side, WEST, EAST. I used: // get the number from parameters // somehow get the difference, e.g. 500 - 250 = 250 if (isServer) then { [WEST, _difference] call BIS_fnc_respawnTickets; [EAST, _difference] call BIS_fnc_respawnTickets; }; But it seems that under a dedicated Server, the above command doesn't seem to reflect on all players, and most likely only on the server..... though I thought the command is supposed to work on a global level. And testing it out of the isServer if else statements, it resulted in additional of more tickets every time a player joins..... So I was wondering if anyone is able to explain how that function works or if I have used the wrong combinations... or I should have used either just the module or the function command. Thanks. -
Removing group information from _this
th3gingergamer posted a topic in ARMA 3 - MISSION EDITING & SCRIPTING
I have been trying to remove the group information from the caller part of '_this ' e.g. "B Alpha 1-1:1". I am trying to use splitString to split the string when it gets to a bracket as the whole string returned is "B Alpha 1-1:1 (Username)" The code I have so far is _caller = (_this select 1); _caller splitString "("; Hint format["%1 is an absolute idiot!",_caller select 1]; The error I get is about splitString expecting a string but receiving an object. I tried looking up a way to change an object to a string but had no luck. I'm extremely new to SQF (I started learning today) and any help with this would be appreciated. -
[SOLVED] Can you use a script as an addon for the workshop?
Chipotles posted a topic in ARMA 3 - ADDONS - CONFIGS & SCRIPTING
Im a guy comming from mission-scripting and have been there for a while. I have now made a simple client-side gui controls script. The actual purpose of this script was coded with the "mission-file" context in mind. Now people asked me if i couldnt upload it to the steam workshop for easier installation and convenient use. I did some research on this but i cant fint anything relevant anywhere. Is is possible to pack a single script in an workshop-addon and expect it to load on every mission that it is executed with? When yes, how do i perform this? -

solved Trying to make AI hostile only when armed.
missing kyle posted a topic in ARMA 3 - MISSION EDITING & SCRIPTING
Hey all, I'm trying to create a mission where the independent faction is treated as captive until they pick up a weapon, and then treated as an enemy until they drop the weapon again. I'm pretty new to the scripting side of the mission editor entirely, but this is the basic line I'm working with (which currently makes the AI not shoot you on sight). But I'm putting the following into the player's init. if (player hasweapon null) then (player setcaptive true); That line actually works when I have the default in-editor setcaptive option off, the problems start when I try to tack anything else onto it. if (player hasweapon null) then (player setcaptive true) else (player setcaptive false); Main example: this line doesn't work, and the AI always shoots on sight, regardless of what the player spawns with. { sleep 5; while {alive player} do { if (player hasweapon null) then (player setcaptive true) else (player setcaptive false); }; }; Ideally, I'd want something like this to continuously check if the player is armed or not, but it has the same effect as the above. -
solved Looking for a simple MP PvP Score system
Flash-Ranger posted a topic in ARMA 3 - MISSION EDITING & SCRIPTING
Hello, I am looking for a SIMPLE score system that I could use in my Deathmatch maps. I wan't no "kill streak", no "best player" of what so ever, just a simple score system that could collect the amount of kills that a player is getting and that will stop the game when limit it reached. I guess you can do this with "eventhandlers" but I'm clearly not an expert in Deathmatchs so ... Please help me :) -
Trouble using multiple trigger values to activate a task.
Bluvarth posted a topic in ARMA 3 - MISSION EDITING & SCRIPTING
Essentially, I've got an area activated trigger searching for BLUFOR forces present. I also have a trigger to tell when I've killed an officer within that area. I want to allow the player to either kill the officer and end the task, or stay in the zone and defend for five minutes and end the task. These both work independently, but I can't seem to make it into an or statement. I've tried simply syncing them both to the set task state, to no avail. I've tried to put the code "CompletedTaskOne = true" in both of the triggers, and then made a third trigger with "CompletedTaskOne = true" as the condition, then synced that to the set task state. I've tried adding the code "(this) OR (!alive Officer1)" and "(this) or (!alive Officer1)" in a single trigger. Basically, I'm just this close to scalping myself over this, and could really use some assistance. And yes, I did create an account here just for this. -

Trying to get a position on higher gound near a objectiv
FederalRazer89 posted a topic in ARMA 3 - MISSION EDITING & SCRIPTING
Hello As the title might suggest, i am trying to find a elevated position near the objectiv. I am creating a function that will place waypoint the highest point close to the objectiv, so that i can have AI sniper group/ recon group overwatch on higher ground. The way i intended to do it was to get some locations around the position, but i dont know how i would sort the array by height. The script: _reconSort = []; for "_i" from 1 to 360 do { _testpos = [_pos, random [100,200,500], _i] call BIS_fnc_relPos; _reconSort pushBack _testpos; }; _reconSort apply {[_x distance _grp, _x] }; Any help would be appreciated. -
TV screen with setObjectTexture on dedicated server
Cheitan posted a topic in ARMA 3 - MISSION EDITING & SCRIPTING
Hello ! Here is the problem : for the needs of a mission I'm currently designing, I have to display various things on various screens here and there. I'm using setObjectTexture, not the global variant but the local one, you are gonna see why. Among various devices I have to retexture, there is some PC screens. All is working as expected with theses screens. But there is also some TV flat screens that have to be retextured. First, I need to put a simple PAA image, exactly as I do on PC screens, and later in the mission, I have to display a camera feed on it, so I'm using procedural textures (RenderToTexture : local, that's why I'm using the non-global command ; of course the script is running on all clients). All this is working perfectly when I try locally, but on the dedicated server only PC screens are retextured. For the TVs, even the "static" simple texture don't appears. Of course, no error message, no other unintended behavior... If it was only the RenderToTexture not being shown, I would search in that direction, but as the static image is also not displayed, I suppose that there is something wrong with the TV screen. Here is my code, very simple, I don't think it's very relevant, but... //firstly ecran_1 setObjectTexture [0, "img\connection.paa"]; //then later in the mission ecran_1 setObjectTexture [0, "#(argb,512,512,1)r2t(camfeed1,1)"]; spycam1 = "camera" camCreate getPos cam1; spycam1 camSetTarget target1; spycam1 camSetFov 0.6; spycam1 camCommit 0; spycam1 cameraEffect ["Internal", "Back", "camfeed1"]; Did anyone already faced this problem ? Do I miss something ? -
Hello all, So I built a rather nice structure, using plenty of the Plywood "Shoot House Walls". Now, prior to this last update, it was fine. No scripts, literally just the template in a VR mission. However, when I load it now, there is a problem. In the Editor, it still looks fine. But in game, every shoot house wall has gone from its half / quarter height, all to full height panels. Even corners have gone from half height to full height corners. This only happens when the mission loads, as it stil looks fine in the editor and shows the correct object! Any help would be greatly appreciated, as I do NOT want to re-make this object. In Editor: http://i.imgur.com/94d4lNg.jpg In Game: http://i.imgur.com/DAsZpA4.jpg

I am noticing a really odd visual problem in my ground textures for my terrain. Everything seems to work fine, except in some areas I get weird 'outlines' or 'borders' around a certain texture type on my terrain. It is as if it is trying to fade into a different texture when it shouldn't be. For example: http://imgur.com/3xmh33A http://imgur.com/Kv1XMyA http://imgur.com/eFEWAMY

Greeting everyone, I've just finished doing the Atlas guide and turns out creating a terrain isn't that complicated after all... that is except the very first step, getting the terrain heightmap. In Atlas guide he provides one .asc as example however like most creators have done and as BIS suggest, I also wanted to use a custom terrain from a real life region in the world. This is where the problem starts, it's not like I haven't got the resources, but rather they don't seem to work as I'd expect. Because I didn't get how to get a .arc file I tried using a standard .png Black and White image since TerrainBuilder appears to accept and is much easier to generate one, however when I imported into Terrain Builder's bulldozer, it showed up as all spiky and not as smooth as it appeared. So I went to do some research in the forums and read about this software called "L3DT", I've somehow managed to import the heightmap into the program and it told me the scale of the height were completely out of proportion, which explained the giant spikes in bulldozer. So I thought considering so many people talk about this SRTM format n' stuff I guessed my only chance was to do the hard way, so I went looking on my national archives for some kind of geographic files and managed to find one WMS layer that I was able to import into QGIS which BIS uses as example, it's not as sensitive as the B&W one but if there's no alternative I could live with that, the problem once again is that I have no idea how to export the region I want into .arc . I've searched both the forums and the internet for GIS related information and I've quite lost my senses as to what I should actually do after all. So I was hoping someone with more experience than me, could lead me in the right way. Thanks for your attention :)

[SOLVED]Trigger on presence of specific units
Grester posted a topic in ARMA 3 - MISSION EDITING & SCRIPTING
I found this thread of Arma2 from 2009 which asks the very same question. Now I must say I haven't tried this yet but, I wonder upon the release of Eden update if there are better alternatives given sync seems to have been sort of discontinued (I'm a Mission Editor amateur so I don't know if sync still actually exists.) or if simply there are better methods as of 2016's Arma 3 capabilities unlike A2 from 2009. Assurance of A2's method and possible alternatives are welcome. Thanks in advance. -
[SOLVED] Undefined base class but external parent classes defined...
Grester posted a topic in ARMA 3 - ADDONS - CONFIGS & SCRIPTING
Yes this is going to sound weird but I'm trying to create an inheritance from a class yet it's giving me the undefined base class error despite I have literally made the entire parent-child tree which isn't usually necessary. I'm not actually using a "base" class but one of BIS inherited classes but it should still work right? Any idea why this is giving me this error?

[SOLVED] Binarize Error "config : some input after EndOfFile" .rpf CLEAN
Grester posted a topic in ARMA 3 - MISSION EDITING & SCRIPTING
Greetings. I've been for the last 4 hours hunting the possible problem to this clueless error. I did found some tips to check .rpf files which I did and found 2 missing ; but now the .rpf file is clean and it still gives me this error. I have created new items for the game and I've been trying to binarize the .pbo without success. I have the main config.cpp and then for each kind of equipments I have them separated through other .hpp . Does this mean the problem could be in any of the .hpp and not just the .cpp? I didn't want to flood the topic with code and make people read lines for me but I'm getting a bit desperate. Any tips to help spot the possible culprit easier? Edit: Sorry for posting on wrong subcategory. i meant addons editing. -
[SOLVED]Info on how to create a gameplay changing script/mod?
Grester posted a topic in ARMA 3 - ADDONS - CONFIGS & SCRIPTING
I'm almost sure that there's information about this somewhere but so far I haven't been able to find it. I'll try to explain myself better what I'm looking for and perhaps someone could help me clarify what I might actualy need. Right now I'm making a items based mod that adds new clothes and it works perfectly. I have a single .pbo with the config.cpp that has the classes that add the new content to the game. However right now I wanted to add to that mod some game changing scripts that involve some kind of commands that don't seem to fit the .cpp/.hpp files. I'm not gonna try to guess what I need but here's the kind of command that I wanted to integrate in my mod: "player addEventHandler..." I've found similar commands like this in .sqf files from missions, however I don't want to design a script that only works for a single mission, I was looking for information on how to do something that integrates globally like ACE3. Perhaps I'm not entirely aware of the possibilities of a config.cpp file but right now I'm having touble finding information or I'm not sure what Im actually looking for. Perhaps create another .pbo just for these kind of scripts? I don't know... I'd be much apreciated and perhaps some other curious people in the future on how to integrate game changing behaviours or multiple kinds of content to a mod. UPDATE: I've been doing a bit more of research and found something about the init file that seems to be used to launch .sqf files. Could it work that way? UPDATE 2: As I was reverse engeneering a mod I found a couple interesting classes that might just answer my prayers. class DefaultEventhandlers; //gonna lookup in the wiki see what it actually does class CfgFunctions{ /* From what I've analized this class looks for .sqf files in the func folder. Each is then "initialized" by calling them. file name: @mod\func\fn_test.sqf */ class test{} UPDATE 3: Found it.
