Marker loving the server so far, you've done a great job.

Just one thing.
As Heli's now spawn with fuel so no need to have the fuel truck for that mission, do you not think the tank mission should also spawn with fuel? We had the chance for four of them yesterday but never came across a fuel truck

Just a suggestion.

ah Jewish, it was me that was trying to get that tank going last thing (Steve in game). gutted when i put that jerry can of fuel in tank and made no difference. Shame you can't fill jerry cans at fuel stations.

I think the armoured vehicles are good but with them all on tyres, we end up with a lot of expensive paperweights. Maybe a few tracked vehicles would be good... at least then they'd stay around for a while and do a lot of damage. Not saying this for me but its nice to have a challenge to shoot at

I'd be more in favour of more tank missions, less spawned apcs so you dont go round every corner and go.. look another apc!

You do know, if you totally destroy a vehicle, it will be cleaned up and then respawned elsewhere!

The armoured vehicles spawns are tied into the civilian vehicles just now! Next release they will be removed from that particular instance!

The way the original spawn script was written, doesn't give you very much control on what type or how many of each vehicle spawns!

There will be a maximum of 12 armoured vehicles, still to be decided what ones. They will be like the new helicopter spawn, be randomly spawned into one of 7 or 8 random spawn points around the map!

If you guys can give suggestions of what you would like, I will obviously take that on board!!

Might be me modding the mission, but it is you guys that are playing it just now!

Deffo need some better skins for the different teams... to me the color of opfor and blufor are too close together...

Marker are they loaded server side? can we use some from Armaholic?

I would suggest one team green camo one team maybe desert cammo and the indies in civi clothes or something along them lines

I asked last page for some suggestions for player models!

Use the ones from Armaholic as a guide!

Remember you can use BAF and PMC as well! As, most if not all have the lite patches at least for these two!

enigma27 · 22 Sep 2012 at 19:16

so you can change skins yourself.. how do you do that?

MarkeR · 22 Sep 2012 at 19:35

No I can put the skins n you guys want to use as blufor etc.

Right now of the top if my head there are three different factions in blufor, baf, us and German ksk. Within that the different operators have slightly different skins as well.

Slight update!

Looks like with the help of Sa-matra I have got the icons working!

Well, there were no errors when I start up the test version on my personal server!

Also, the player menu bug is possibly fixed, needs tested by more players!

Monday morning for new upload!

Had some fun on here today, managed to steal an LAV from the yank side while some guy was moving some trucks about lol.

Im off Monday and Tuesday so I plan to give it a rigorous test period, with perhaps only short breaks to play Borderlands 2 on xbox

Done...

Let me know if there are problems with vehicle spawns.

Cheers

JasonL · 23 Sep 2012 at 10:37

I did it at the same time as you Marker, whoops!

MarkeR · 23 Sep 2012 at 10:57

Lol... No probs mate, as long as it is working..

Got a few surprises in store for next update..

Kids have been sleeping early, so had time to work on the next release...

JasonL · 23 Sep 2012 at 11:19

No rush man, it's in a really good place at the moment.

mike.grayizzle · 23 Sep 2012 at 14:35

Marker can you run a script that bans players drinking Strongbow and blowing away defenceless team mates.......not naming any names!!

MarkeR · 23 Sep 2012 at 15:41

Strongbow!!

Did he happen to be Welsh?

just persia · 23 Sep 2012 at 16:22

Just logged in to play this, 5 minutes in I found a car, with someone waiting by it, and I died to friendly fire

Bit dark at the moment, will come back on later when it's daytime. Anyone know roughly when day/night cycles start?
