Humm maybe I've had false info. π
livid heath
probably from overhearing me saying it π What i've always said is don't make Dampers anything but vertical translations, that's to make physx calculations / workflow much simpler, rather than an engine limitation.
I may be wrong but I think damper animations are quite hardcoded to certain names and such. Probably wrong, but worth keeping an eye on.
hearty sandal
When I last tinkered with rotating dampers I got my car to jump infinitely higher each time it hit the ground
that was fun

@hot pine Legend thankyou, thats exactly what I was looking for and seems to have worked so far. Thankyou for taking the time to explain!
Didnt even have to mess with sources in the config
hearty sandal
Perhaps I confused it with the 1 animation source type stuff
This will be of use for me too when I get back to my cars
somber meadow
to be on the safe side my physx relevant bones are only moving by translation, rotation is only being used to make the rest look functional. I may come back and try fully rotational if I get cocky in the future.
livid heath
that would have been my advice. use anything you like for cosmetic bone anims, but keep dampers vertical translations, to avoid soul-destroying physx hell

Weapon addons example in the Arma 3 samples on steam could be useful startingpoint
Animation might be a bit trickier if its not made specifically for the Arma skeleton, it will basically have to be remade for it

Hey guys. Could I get some help with amphibious wheeled vehicles, inheriting from Wheeled_APC_F (which inherits from Car_F)?
pboProj report is telling me that I am missing ]={ on certain lines, for example a line that contains rudderForceCoefAtMaxSpeed = 18;. It doesn't give this error for the related line above it, rudderForceCoef = 14;. This isn't the only line it does this on, but they do seem to all be water-traverse related.
First, I don't understand what that error means, exactly.
Second, maybe I'm trying to do something that isn't intended for this vehicle class? I just didn't see how it works in vanilla amphibs.
The underlying problem I'm having - the reason I am trying to use these parameters - is that my APC won't turn in water. I have the engine effects mempoints under the water line and their respective config callouts, but NOGO.

the amphibious stuff is quite funky
dry carbon
no joke. LOL
The Marshall has none of the rudder stuff - only a few of the water parameters
it does have the engine effect things, which are supposedly the key.
I bet there's probably something else missing from my p3d
dry carbon
I thought I had it driving forward in the water, but it turns out it was just maintaining the momentum it had while touching ground. So, not only will it not turn, but it will not accelerate or decelerate either.
Other little thing, maybe a clue: The wheels continue to spin if I give it gas while it float away from the ground. It does this for each wheel, so I could for example have the front wheels spinning while the rear wheels are stopped, once it floats away from ground contact. Once it's adrift, it could potentially continue on forever without response to input of direction, speed, or even animation.
Still useful in crossing rivers, lakes, or bays - or going from island to island - as long as I don't mind going directly forward.

so i've got my p drive set up, i'm trying to contribute to a mod and would like to build it so i can test it before pushing, i've put the mod into my p drive, as well as extracted arma 3's assets using the p drive tool thing, but i get missing file errors on enoch assets \a3\Characters_F_Enoch\Facewear\G_AirPurifyingRespirator_01_F
i dont see any enoch assets extracted by the extracter thing, is there some other step i have to do to get enoch content
delicate comet
no i used "project drive management" from arma 3 tools
and the extract game data option
i should use that?
hearty sandal
yeah the official tools dont exactly work right 9/10 times
or the setup tools that is
delicate comet
should i delete all of my current p drive contents and start again?
hearty sandal
PMC wiki has steps to use Mikeros tools to setup P drive and I would recommend using mikeros PboProject too for better debug on pbo packing
hearty sandal
You likely dont need to delete anything
mikerso arma3p does not extract enoch data either out of the box but you can easily extract that manually
hearty sandal
no it just removes the older extracted data
in your case its pretty much the same as it now puts back in but in case you had older version of A3 data that would be necessary step to refresh it
delicate comet
while i'm waiting for that to go, I did try running ExtractPBO on the arma3/enoch folder, which extracted some stuff
but the one i'm specifically missing to build this mod, characters_enoch_f, did not
it appears that file is a "ebo" not a "pbo"
w/e that is

that would mean it is encrypted

if you need to refer to files in it, you can create dummy files that match the folder path and filename

i now have 40 shooting in my ear and it sounds terrible since overlapping audio but no more breaking.

interesting, I had issue with sounds cutting out but I fixed that before by reducing volumeFactor from 3 to 1.3. I didn't mention it since your volumeFactor was at 0.85

Hey y'all, how can I increase vertical recoil and horizontal recoil only instead of everything? Because I like how the kickback recoil currently is on most modded and vanilla firearms but I feel that the vertical and horizontal recoils are too low in general except for IFA3 guns where they can be a bit high.
I tried packing my own config.ccp in a PBO but this configuration didn't change the recoil. The code I attempted is below, and these values are higher than default.
class cfgWeapons
{
class Recoil
{
class recoil_default
{
permanent = 0.25;
temporary = 0.25;
}
}
}
Possibly the subsequent classes overwrite those values.
full wagon
Oh rip.
However @hearty sandal, is there a way to universally increase vertical and horizontal recoil instead of all recoil values?
hearty sandal
Probably not if what you are doing there does not work.
full wagon
Ah okay.
hearty sandal
You could study how the recoil classes are build and if those values get replaced in each class inheriting from the default.
full wagon
Yeah, that's what I did @hearty sandal.

Actually @hearty sandal, I didn't know I had to have an init.sqf script for the script mod lmao

rough hatch
how do I get a multiple barrel vehicle weapon to actually have shots come out of different barrels? something like the vanilla AA tanks have? I have 4 memory points for the barrels and in my vehicle turret config I have
{
"usti hlavne",
"usti hlavne 2",
"usti hlavne 3",
"usti hlavne 4"
};```
but it still just comes out of one of those barrels, is there something else I'm supposed to do to make it alternate?I've looked at several other vehicle configs that have multi barrel guns and all I could find relating to it in those is the memoryPointGun array
is there something else that needs to be set up in the model to make the shots come out of different spots?
hearty sandal
memoryPointGun[] = {"z_gunL_muzzle", "z_gunR_muzzle"};
gunBeg[] = {"z_gunL_muzzle", "z_gunR_muzzle"};
gunEnd[] = {"z_gunL_chamber", "z_gunR_chamber"};
@rough hatch
from class Heli_Light_01_armed_base_F
rough hatch
that doesn't work in turrets
the gunBeg only works as an array if it's in the base of the vehicle class
not if it's in a turret class
and the other configs I looked at just had gunBeg and gunEnd pointing to the default hlavne things
even if the memoryPointGun was pointing to ones named completely different
rough hatch
that says it disables muzzle flash effects
I think that's meant for tanks and stuff
cause that also wasn't present in any other configs I looked at
hearty sandal
if you give it one of the vanilla AA guns how does that work?
narrow musk
assuming I'm retexturing a vanilla rifle
can I place in the editor retextured weapons like I do with vanilla ones?
hearty sandal
if it has custom class yes it should show up in editor too
narrow musk
I'm not sure what the placeable ones actually are
I though I had to create a different class for the placeable one that would have an addaction to give the player said rifle
rough hatch
I think he means the ground objects that you can place as objects in the editor
that give you the "take weapon" action
hearty sandal
they possibly need their own custom classes
narrow musk
thing is the regular MX rifle has an hiddenselction
the placeable one doesn't
which is weird consodering they're the same model
hearty sandal
you likely need to create a new placeable class that contains your new gun
narrow musk
was hoping to look at the vanilla configs for those placeable guns but not sure where to look
they don't seem to be in weapons_f
hearty sandal
everything you place on terrain is in cfgVehicles
weapons, items, etc are all in "groundHolder" objects
narrow musk
oh realized I can access it from eden with 3 clicks
rough hatch
@hearty sandal huh, I tried what you said, I used addWeaponTurret to add one of the other multi barrel vehicle weapons onto my turret and that actually comes out of different barrels
so I guess I'm missing something in the weapon config then?
hearty sandal
possibly
try inheriting your weapon from it
should save you from some hair pulling
rough hatch
oh
somehow I missed that the weapon I inherited from had shotFromTurret set to 1
setting that to 0 made it work
I think I also got confused cause the other weapon configs I was looking at just didn't have a shotFromTurret entry which I guess defaults to 0 then
tepid echo
how do i change where my objects appear in the editor in the config.cpp?
rough hatch
you mean like, under what faction?

its an objects so it will appear in the empty faction

oh you mean like under what category?
tepid echo
yeah

like buildings/objects/whatever
I'm not sure I imagine that probably has to do with editorCategory and editorSubcategory entries

Hello, I want to get an IR marker onto a vehicle. Based on what I have managed to work out it would seem that IR markers can only be obtained on vehicles through doing the attachto command with an IR strobe onto the vehicle which isn't completely Ideal but works. I'd just like to know if anyone knows a different way to do this I was thinking it could be possible if I had the code that actually defines the IR bit of the strobe?, or how to have the IR strobe be attached to the vehicle from start up. Thanks for any help provided!
grand zinc
if I had the code that actually defines the IR bit of the strobe
its a config entry. its engine side.
attachto is the best way I know
bronze kraken
I'm aware its likely engine side, i was just curious if anyone knew how this was done to then replicate it in some way, or alternatively find a way to have hat class be called from the vehicle. Regarding attachto how would i go about having it attach to a memory point? and how best do you use the attachto command on start up, i.e. the strobe will be there at start up, will it keep going forever? or does it have a life time? as i've seen the grenades have lifetimes?

question about inheritance.
if the parents of the magazine that I'm working with are:
["8Rnd_82mm_Mo_shells","32Rnd_155mm_Mo_shells","VehicleMagazine","CA_Magazine","Default"]
Does my config patch need to inherit all the way back to Default?
class cfgMagazines
{
class Default;
class CA_Magazine: Default;
class VehicleMagazine: CA_Magazine;
class 32Rnd_155mm_Mo_shells: VehicleMagazine;
class 8Rnd_82mm_Mo_shells: 32Rnd_155mm_Mo_shells;
class customMagazine: 8Rnd_82mm_Mo_shells
{
...
};
};
disregard. This worked. I think when I tried it initially, I had issues when packing things up and something didn't update properly.
class cfgMagazines
{
class CA_Magazine;
class VehicleMagazine;
class 32Rnd_155mm_Mo_shells;
class 8Rnd_82mm_Mo_shells;
class customMag: 8Rnd_82mm_Mo_shells
{
...
};
};
@bronze kraken
or does it have a life time?
Yes it has, actually hardcoded even π But fix that soon-ish
Regarding attachto how would i go about having it attach to a memory point?
https://community.bistudio.com/wiki/attachTo

Hi guys , I am getting this error

_arr =
please don't, its slow, inefficient, and requires more typing.
private _arr = is much better
@nocturne verge your array goes from 0 to 7, but your for loop goes from 1 to 8. There is no 8th element.
_unit setVariable["enemy" + "i", nil]; you know this is always _unit setVariable["enemyi", nil]; ?
Also you should probably be using forEach instead, I don't see why you use a for loop.
Also why are you recreating the group everytime and store it in a global variable? if you recreate everytime you can just use a local variable
Also thats scripting, not config editing..
nocturne verge
Sorry , my bad , but for the group , i do it because it has to be deleted every time i leave the trigger area and i don't want the units to be part of the same group but rather separate units
delicate comet
so i've been reading through this, trying to get some "best practices" in my workflow and trying to get it compatible with file patching: https://community.bistudio.com/wiki/CMA:DevelopmentSetup
if i wanted to move to having pboprefix files, and everything in the p drive organised, how do i set up my symlinks? atm i have:
P:\first_meu_aux\config.cpp
is the guide telling me i need to move stuff into an "x" folder? a "mod" folder? or an "addon folder", i'm not really sure what the wiki means when it suggests a difference between a mod and an addon.
do i need like P:\x\Hobnob\first_meu_aux\config.cpp ?
grand zinc
do i need like P:\x\Hobnob\first_meu_aux\config.cpp ?
yes
is the guide telling me i need to move stuff into an "x" folder? a "mod" folder? or an "addon folder"
Same folder as your pboprefix says.
Then symlink P:/x folder to SteamApps/common/Arma 3/x to have arma load it from pdrive
rough hatch
dunno if this is quite the right place cause it's regarding a mod but since it's probably a common enough of a mod, what defines where the main interaction point is positioned in ACE?
delicate comet
position String (of code) External Base Actions Only, Code to return a position in model cords (priority over selection)
by default its just object center
but you can override it in cfg with either a position or a memory point
@rough hatch ^
rough hatch
isn't that on the other end though? I don't mean what in an action defines where the position is, I mean what in a vehicle config or model defines where that main position is
grand zinc
I mean what in a vehicle config or model defines where that main position is
Its defined in the action config entry though
And as Hobnob has already said
by default its just object center
rough hatch
in that case, how do I set what the object center is?
rough hatch
is it just the p3d origin point?
delicate comet
its bounding box center
grand zinc
its the center of the p3d afaik yes
delicate comet
...maybe its p3d origin point? in my experience its been boundingbox
either way you can just define a custom position in the cfg
see the ace interaction framework wiki page
rough hatch
but that doesn't say about defining a custom position on the vehicle
only for if you're adding extra actions
grand zinc
Just add a memory point where you want it, and set the selection for your vehicle
https://github.com/acemod/ACE3/blob/master/addons/interaction/CfgVehicles.hpp#L325
rough hatch
oh I think I get it now
so if I add this into my config class ACE_Actions { class ACE_MainActions { selection = ""; }; };
and point to a selection there, that'll be the interaction point?
delicate comet
yes
or you can use position
and just define a coordinate, and not use a memory point
grand zinc
Essentially, of course you have to maintain proper config inheritance. Just pasting that would break inhertiance of ace actions
rough hatch
oh wait, it's set up so on static weapons it uses "gunnerview" as the position
I could just add a memory point called that and not have to define any custom one
since my class inherits from StaticWeapon
grand zinc
yeah
thats probably why its at the bottom
its configured to use the memory point and thus doesn't automatically use the center, but the point doesn't exist so it ends up at 0,0,0
rough hatch
yeah that makes sense now
the sight view memory point is named something else in my p3d

hearty sandal
does your unit have the basic "throw" and "put" weapons?
delicate cypress
I'm not sure. I'm taking over the development of the mod because the original dev retired
where would I see that?
The other units worked just fine if I didnt edit their loadouts. They just had 2 grenades and they worked
I added the smokes and suddenly it doesnt work anymore
Okay never mind I went and checked
they cannot throw grenades either
so how would I fix that?
@hearty sandal
hearty sandal
well probably you need to add the default weapons
delicate cypress
is there a wiki post I can look at?
hearty sandal
you can compare to the vanilla configs
delicate cypress
will do, thanks
hearty sandal
"throw" and "put" I remember being there, not sure if theres any others
delicate cypress
I dont know how its not working since I'm telling that for example
hearty sandal
I dont understand.
delicate cypress
class SAS_Soldier_W: B_Soldier_F
im telling that my soldier is basically the vanilla nato soldier
hearty sandal
well do you replace the weapon[] = line?
delicate cypress
{
"SAS_Soldier_Rifle_BLK",
"SAS_HandGun_BLK",
"Binocular"
};
respawnweapons[]=
{
"SAS_Soldier_Rifle_BLK",
"SAS_HandGun_BLK",

this?yep
you that overwrites whatever its inheriting from the B_Soldier
and you dont have the default weapons there
so you cant use grenades
or mines
delicate cypress
hm
hearty sandal
just compare to any A3 units config
delicate cypress
will do
aha!
I need to add Throw and Put to the weapons available for it
i now understand thanks
hearty sandal

narrow musk
is there a value to set the chance of an object surface deflecting a projectile?
hearty sandal
no
its handled by the deflectiveness of the shot itself and possibly some effect from the penetration material (as in if the material is too hard to get through)
delicate comet
does the cycle target keybind require the sensor to have an active radar? my air vehicle that has only sensors and no radar cannot use the "cycle vehicle targets" (default R key) keybind, but i can directly lock onto targets by putting my cursor on them in freelook and pressing the lock key
hearty sandal
sounds logical
if you have no sensor to pick up targets how could you lock on them
delicate comet
i have visual sensors or w/e its called
optical sensors?
other vehicles show up on my sensors panel, and i can lock them directly, i just cannot cycle through them
hearty sandal
well for me it makes sense that it can only lock on things you are looking at
delicate comet
i would have assumed if all of the targets show up on my hud as boxes and on the sensor panel
i'd be able to cycle through them
its awkward to get the cursor directly on the target as the pilot
delicate comet
yes
I'm probably just going to add radar
but the two dont seem connected from a like "realistic" standpoint, the wiki makes no mention that adding a radar enables this
i was wondering if there was some other setting i'm missing
delicate comet
that i get, but if it was just a simple heat seeker / tv tracker like a missile seeker head, how do other vehicles show up in my hud as boxes
hearty sandal
I dunno, its you who have configured it π
delicate comet
if they are on my hud i would assume "the computer" knows about them and thus i'd be able to cycle between them
thats what im asking, is there some setting to enable it without giving the vech radar
hearty sandal
cant remember for sure but my gut feeling is yes
delicate comet
i mean, i have no strong objection to giving my vech radar, its just the wiki makes no mention of the radar and the cycle targets feature being connected, and i cant find anything like "enableCycleTargets = false"
hearty sandal
you mentioned you use IR missiles?
https://community.bistudio.com/wiki/Arma_3_Targeting#Overview I assume you have used this as guideline
there quite many different type of sensors that work in different ways

oi. anyone can tell me if binoculars are hardcoded?

ok, thought so
tranquil loom
is there a way to access a classes attributes from with a config file?
like class.attribute or class::attribute?
tranquil loom
read them
so how would i do that from within description.ext cause class.attribute or class::attribute does not seem to work
hearty sandal
yeah thats not a arma command at all
can you describe what exactly are you trying to do?
to read the config you would have to execute appropriate script command
tranquil loom
yeah i am not using sqf, i need to access them from within the config file
i am trying to access a classes attribute from with the same config file (description.ext). i can write out an example i guess
hearty sandal
thats not possible then I think
but also I dont understand where you would use such thing in decription.ext
tranquil loom
class my_first_class {
my_attribute = 1;
};
class my_second_class {
my_attribute = my_first_class.my_attribute + 1;
};
I already tried using eval and the sqf commands to access attributes
but more work than what it was worth
very unfortunate
hearty sandal
well you can use sqf for config attributes
like that anyway
But why would you need that kind of a thing anyway?
you could #define MYATTRIBUTE1 = 1 and use that though
so my_attribute = MYATTRIBUTE1 and my_attribute = MYATTRIBUTE1 +1 should work
tranquil loom
can you inherit from multiple classes?
cause that could be another way maybe...
class my_first_class {
my_attribute = 1;
};
class my_second_class: my_first_class {
my_attribute = my_attribute + 1;
};
can you inherit from multiple classes?
no
my_attribute = my_attribute + 1;
no thats also not valid
hearty sandal
why do you need that kind of setup? what are you trying to configure?

Why do I keep this error? "File RealRecoil\config.cpp, line 35: /cfgRecoils/:'.' encountered instead of '{'" is what I'm getting with this config.
full wagon
But what line? Because line 35 has a comment.
Oh, you mean all the class names @grand zinc?
grand zinc
ye
line numbers are usually a bit off
always check the lines around the reported one
full wagon
Ah I see, is a comma allowed instead? Since 762x39 for example wouldn't be as readable.
Oh I see.
However @steady sundial, I'm not sure sorry. I tried to take a look.
Anyone here know how C++ classnames should be typed as? "class 762x39MM AKM/74M FAMILY" still doesn't work despite having no full stops nor commas in it.
hearty sandal
Got space
full wagon
I'm trying to find the format for classes on C++ which Arma configs use but I can't find anything.
hearty sandal
You can't format them
full wagon
Oh okay, but how can you explain the error picking out a capital A now?
Not sure if that's caused by the space or not.
grand zinc
A-z0-9_ is the format @full wagon
full wagon
Ah okay, thanks @grand zinc and will do @hearty sandal. I didn't notice that it needed to be like that instead.
But thanks for the help though y'all.
"class 762x39MM_AK_FAMILY" this would work yeah?
Never mind, Notepad ++ is showing me no orange colour on the new classnames anymore which I think it means an integer or a numerical value.
hearty sandal
I think that's just because it starts with numbers
tranquil loom
@stoic lily like i said, i need to access the attributes from within the config itself not SQF
lofty zealot
@full wagon arma configs are not the same as c++ classes

lofty zealot
No language, just arma Config
full wagon
You mean a propietary language? Becaues it is some kind of language lol
Code can't exist without a coding language.
idle matrix

full wagon
Ah okay.
Also, anyone know why RHS folded weapons can't seem to have their recoil configurations changed? I get that a script is used to be able to fold the foldable guns ingame, but I still wonder what's causing it.
hearty sandal
If I recall right you would actually have to change it in all the different variants of the weapon
full wagon
Yeah I have by using the CfgRecoils class template.
And I doubt this is the problem @hearty sandal, but I saw that I was missing semicolon closures on the "recoil = ["recoil name"]" lines but I'll try to fix them to see if that's the issue.
Yeah, its still not working.
So I'm seeing an odd pattern with RHSAFRF AKs.. My config has less effect on 7.62x39mm unfolded AKs while unfolded 5.45x39mm AK configs work perfectly, and all 5.45mm and 7.62mm folded AKs on RHSAFRF haven't been changed. Basically, RHS AFRF recoil configs are dominating mine at times when they shouldn't.
Anywhere in this code that could be causing it @hearty sandal?
I feel I've checked everything but I want to make sure.
Actually yeah.. RHS is dominating my configs for these weapons.
Not sure why.
hearty sandal
Id say due to the scripted method RHS uses youre question should be pointed at them
hearty sandal
they dont if I recall right
their Forum post on BI forums could be a good contact point
but also one thing you could check is that your configs are actually loaded after the RHS configs you are trying to alter
this would be achieved with the use of correct requiredAddons array in cfgPatches
full wagon
Oh wait, do I have to put in requiredAddons?
Even if the mod can function without it?
hearty sandal
well.. if you try to alter something, yes.
full wagon
OH, sorry lmao
I thought it was just for the dependency warning thing in the launcher and the workshop LOL
hearty sandal
hearty sandal
well not quaranteed that is your problem here, but sounds like it could be
full wagon
Its okay lol
But yeah, this comment in the code for it made me think this lol "// When any of the addons is missing, pop-up warning will appear when launching the game."
But just wondering though @hearty sandal; for the CUP Weapons mod, do I just put "CUP Weapons" in the requiredAddons field or can't it have spaces?
I think its like that, but just making sure since the Functions part of Arma uses underscores.
Sorry for asking quite a few questions also, just that the documentation available for coding this game isn't the best at times and that videos for configuration are a bit outdated.
Never mind, still doesn't work.
hearty sandal
you would need to use the cfgPatches class of the config you want to overwrite
full wagon
What you mean exactly? Because I put that in already, you'll see it if you want to read my config.
hearty sandal
full wagon
Yeah I used that for reference.
hearty sandal
if cup weapon config has CUP_Weapons then you would put "CUP_Weapons" in your config as required addon
full wagon
Oh okay.
However, I used the same template according to CfgPathces.
*Patches.
Have you read my code or?
hearty sandal
you have A3_functions as your required addon
which is likely wrong too as you are altering weapons
full wagon
Yeah sorry; I added RHSAFRF, and also CUP Weapons.
hearty sandal
how do you figure those are the cfgPatches classnames for the configs you want to alter?
full wagon
Isn't that for addons though?
Or is it for the classes themselves?
Just that it said Addons which sounds like mods instead.
hearty sandal
cfgPatches class dictates the addons internal connection
full wagon
Yep.
hearty sandal
all pbos are addons
full wagon
Yeah exactly.
hearty sandal
so where do you find those CUP Weapons and RHSAFRF
are they what the configs cfgPathces classes are called?
in the pbos that contain the weapon configs you are trying to alter
hearty sandal
is that the config file that contains the cfgpatches class?
full wagon
OH right, sorry no.
hearty sandal
yep yep
full wagon
So what I do is I find the PBOs themselves right?
I didn't know it couldn't automatically detect them.
hearty sandal
how could it?
if it happens to load the RHS config after yours how would it decide which is the altered one
full wagon
I thought it worked by scanning the mods themselves, like putting new recoil patterns onto modded weapons working automatically from the game scanning for their classnames.
hearty sandal
yes but theres nothing that indicates yours is the last alteration
hearty sandal
except the requiredAddons array
full wagon
Ah okay.
I think I see what you mean also since I checked out the class inherentence thing on the wiki.
But I definitely see the logic now though.
full wagon
Yeah I did, but thanks π Will do.
And before I start this by the way, I copy and paste the names of the PBOs with the configs yeah?
I did that but making sure since there's no example for that lol
hearty sandal
well
that often can be enough if the logic that the pboname = cfgPatches class name has been utilized by the maker
it is how they are commonly done I think
but it is possible someone wants to go different route
full wagon
Its okay, I now learnt that I needed to get the classname below the CfgPatches class in the config files of the firearms I'm modifying.
I'll see if it works but it likely should.
I thought I had to copy and paste names of PBOs including those configs instead @hearty sandal lol
hearty sandal
full wagon
Lol
But I see my problem now, I didn't realise that the first class below CfgPatches didn't include the weapons also for RHS which is why nearly all RHSAFRF weapons would disappear lol
full wagon
Yep, I fixed it by adding a bunch of weapons to the requiredAddons field.
full wagon
Oh nice, that's convenient haha
It doesn't work by the way @hot pine.
Well at least primary weapons had disappeared.
hot pine
because your config is completely wrong probably π
class rhs_weap_ak74m_desert_folded
{
recoil="545x39MM_AK_FAMILY_FOLDED";
};``` you have to recreate inheritancethis is breaking inheritance - it basically tells engine that rhs_weap_ak74m_desert_folded should no longer inherit anything
full wagon
Oh sorry lol, do I basically put "545x39MM_AK_FAMILY_FOLDED:AK74M" or whatever its based on instead?
Sorry no.
hot pine
class rhs_weap_ak74m_desert_folded : rhs_weap_ak74m_folded
{```class rhs_weap_ak74m_folded; do you know that syntax? Do you know what does it mean?
full wagon
At least from my viewpoint, I do unless that class needs to be inherented from a Base_F one for the rifle.
To me, its defining a class and then putting the name of a class which needs its recoil changed.
full wagon
Oh okay.
hot pine
on that same page there is also info about load order
full wagon
Ah yep; and with regards to the class inheritance, is class "rhs_weap_ak74m_Base_F: Rifle_Base_F" correct yeah?
hot pine
yes
dire fox
Anyone know if you can "lock" a turret using config? I'm trying to force a UAV turret camera to only point directly downward.
hot pine
Yup, use same min Max turn @dire fox
dire fox
hmm, I tried setting minElev, maxElev, and initElev all to -90. When I pull up the UAV terminal, I can see that the turret camera does point downward, but when I take control of the turret, it's facing forward and cannot move. Any idea why that might be? thanks btw @hot pine
dire fox
yep i'm sure...unfortunately π¦
hearty sandal
did you set the turret and view/optics elevation like that
dire fox
i think so..
for OpticsIn::Wide, i have initAngleY = -90; and same for minAngleY and maxAngleY
although not exactly the same for OpticsOut...not sure what that is, but maybe i need to match

@hearty sandal if you could help when you have time it would be appreciated
hearty sandal
have you unpacked A3 data on your P drive?
mikeros Arma3p is best tool to get that done without a hassle imo
full wagon
So with regards to my recoil configuration mod @hearty sandal and @hot pine, anything in my which is causing all modified weapons to disappear ingame? Its perfectly finding them now, just that I can't use them.
From what I can tell, this bug is somehwere within the CfgWeapons class (from lines 248 to 680).

Actually, I found out that the RHS cfgWeapons settings have access = 3; on them which forces read only but I'll try to change that setting through my mod.
Never mind, they're disappearing for another reason.
full wagon
I tried to though @hot pine, the game would crash when I'd put in its parent class.
hot pine
then you did it in a wrong way@full wagon
https://community.bistudio.com/wiki/Class_Inheritance#External_base_classes did you read that section?
full wagon
I read it when you wanted me to last time, and I just simply copied and pasted both the class and the inhereted class in the [child class: parent class] format.
Speaking of the order as well, I put it after the RHSLoadOrder thing.
full wagon
Wtf classes do I get @hot pine? No matter which ones I use, it still doesn't work.
I'm trying my hardest, but I swear I've tried everythign..
hot pine
but there is no inherited class for rhs_weap_ak74m
full wagon
Yes or no?
Because I said it crashed.
And you still keep going.
I'll do it again and show you.
hot pine
it wouldn't it you do external class
hot pine
can you show that?
full wagon
Is this not correct?? rhs_weap_ak74m: rhs_weap_ak74m_Base_F
hot pine
paste your config
full wagon
Okay, I'll put it in a pastebin thing.
hot pine
full wagon
However.. Sorry about before, I didn't think you were listening to me.
I said I've changed that before.
I tried a couple of things.
But anyway.. Can all weapons in this config disappear because of a mistake like that? Sorry, but I don't get the logic of it because the CUP SVDs aren't based on the AK74M class.
hot pine
CUP SVD is also missing inheritance
can you show your whole config with full inheritance?
full wagon
I'll check the SVD but I will once I can.
hot pine
rhs_weap_ak74m: rhs_weap_ak74m_Base_F can you show whole config?
because thats not full inheritance
full wagon
Okay, now they all do.
And I'm trying to do that but how?
Sorry I might've missed something.
This bug's rather annoying and difficult to comprehend.
hot pine
full wagon
Oh, so I put a child class under a parent class?
full wagon
Sorry, the documentation's rather complex.
I'm better with practical learning than theorectical.
I'm not dumb, but a lot of theory can be hard to read.
However, here's my code..
hot pine
do you see difference?
full wagon
I do with the logic, but I'm stilla bit unsure on how to make it myself.
Sorry.
*still a
hot pine
class rhs_weap_ak74m: rhs_weap_ak74m_Base_F```Oh okay.
I was about to ask that funny enough, it felt that way.
But thanks still, sorry if I seemed stupid.
There's just a lot of information at once which is quite overwhelming.
hot pine
well, you were quite rude so next time try to keep calm π
full wagon
Yeah, I tried to aplogise for it.
*apologise
I knew it was wrong.
I'm having a hard time being patient with this at the moment so yeah.
It kind of feels like very long mathematic equations which I greatly struggled with since there was too many steps at a time.
I hope that makes sense, not to excuse myself but yeah.
class cfgWeapons
{
/// 545x39MM AK Rifles
class rhs_weap_ak74m_Base_F;
class rhs_weap_ak74m: rhs_weap_ak74m_Base_F
{
recoil="545x39MM_AK_FAMILY";
};
Nothing wrong with this right @hot pine? I don't trust myself much with this right now.
hot pine
that looks ok
full wagon
Okay good.
But just wondering though, are the configs SQF or C++? Because I want to see if there's more examples instead of only theory for education on this because I'm not very good at following it. I'm better at learning things physically and visually.
full wagon
I already do that though, I don't think its enough for certain things.
But yeah, its okay if you don't know.
full wagon
class rhs_weap_ak74m_Base_F;
class rhs_weap_ak74m: rhs_weap_ak74m_Base_F
{
recoil="545x39MM_AK_FAMILY";
};
class rhs_weap_ak74m;
class rhs_weap_ak74m_camo: rhs_weap_ak74m
{
recoil="545x39MM_AK_FAMILY";
};
Just curious @hot pine, am I safe to get rid of the "class_rhs_weap_ak74m;" line on the second main class? Because I'm getting an error where its been defined twice which crashes the game.
hot pine
Yes
full wagon
Ah okay, all good.
full wagon
It didn't work.

so I am trying this to display injury over my retextured uniform but when i shoot my soldier nothing happens@nocturne verge injury materials are not working if you are using hiddenSelectionsMaterials
nocturne verge
commented that out saved , closed arma , packed the mod again and tried again , still no injury texture when i shoot
nocturne verge
how can i use my own RVMAT then xD
hot pine
injury materials are not working if you are using hiddenSelectionsMaterials
you can't
or well, you can use them but without injury materials
nocturne verge
commented wounds out too and stil nothing xD
injury materials are not working if you are using hiddenSelectionsMaterials
@hot pine this sucks
hot pine
if you still don't have injury materials then there could be error somewhere else in code (incorrect inheritance for instance). Impossible to say with that short snippet
I assume original model have working injury materials?
nocturne verge
probably _generalMacros fault , i renamed it to my class name instead of what i am inheriting from
thanks for the help , ill stick with no injury then as i need the RVMAT because i changed the normal map of the texture
hot pine
_generalMacros is doing nothing
its a helper parameter for internal automation system connected with packing

Im trying to make specific hitpoints for a custom selection. Aka making the rear of my vehicle more able to take damage. Im defining a custom hitpoint section..
{ // Handle internal damage
armor = 0.4;
material=-1;
name="telo_rear";
visual="zbytek";
passThrough = 15;
minimalHit = 0.2;
explosionShielding = 0.2;
radius = 0.5;
};```
My questions is does arma allow this, or is it very picky on what it wants the naming to be?
am i better off creating a different firegeo section just for the rear section?It will work
if vehicle is using hitHullCauseExplosion then you could set "depend" param in HitHull

Is it possible to have two separate gun memory points for the same gunner? I have a heli with a minigun/GMG combo on the chin turret. The memory points are in place where the minigun fires, but I wouldn't know how or IF I could set up the GMG firing points. It's noticeable in the camera view, which is positioned right between the two gun models.
hearty sandal
you should be able to set up the GMG as turret weapon and the minigun as coaxial
full wagon
Now that I had a break and also tried researched this more correctly lol, how should I define the "Rifle" base class? Just that defining another class on top of the Rifle_Base_F class nor declaring it as a parent class of that one worked.
class cfgWeapons
{
class Rifle_Base_F;
class rhs_weap_ak74m_Base_F : Rifle Base F
{
};
class rhs_weap_ak74m : rhs_weap_ak74m_Base_F
{
recoil = "545x39mm_AK_FAMILY";
};
};
In your snippet I don't see why you'd need a rifle class, I don't even see a need for Rifle_Base_F
full wagon
Well, I put it in there so that the game would know about the parent class for the RHS AK74M base class.
Oh sorry, never mind.
However, I did it because the AK74M class needed it defined but I'll try it without all that if that's what you're suggesting?
grand zinc
class CfgWeapons {
class rhs_weap_ak74m_Base_F;

};
};
Ah thanks lol, I deleted a bit more than I should haha
I think its working so thanks man.
Yep, its working perfectly. I appreciate your help.
full wagon
Hey @grand zinc, how can I put more guns into that code? I'm a bit stuck here I think since I tried a couple of ways.
grand zinc
show what you tried
you just add the other classes, below the one you already have
and make sure inheritance stays correct
full wagon
Funny enough, I just tried that (I got back from dinner) so I'll see how it goes lol
I think my mistake could've been putting the brackets and the recoil setting onto the the Base_F class as well.
Yep, its worked xD
That's hilarious lol

C:\Program Files (x86)\Steam\steamapps\common\Arma 3>mklink /J x P:\x
Junction created for x <<===>> P:\x
okay i've got a symlink for my dev folder x in my p drive to arma, inside my x folder its structured as:
P:\x\hob\addons\first_meu_aux\config.cpp
P:\x\hob\addons\first_meu_aux\$PBOPREFIX$
and inside my pboprefix i have x\hob\addons\first_meu_aux
is this set up right? so do i just point PboProject at first_meu_aux, put that pbo into some @dev_first_meu_aux folder, load that mod in arma, enable file patching and im good to go?
grand zinc
Yes
delicate comet
awesome
now that i have a pboprefix file, do file paths defined in my mod change?
class CfgFunctions

file = "first_meu_aux\Functions\fn_PelicanUnLoadValidate.sqf";
};
};
};
};
for example these functions, do i need to change those paths?
delicate comet
ah, so it'd be \x\hob\addons\first_meu_aux\
..i can see why everyone has lots of macros for this
grand zinc
now that you know how it works you could shorten to P:/hob/firstmeuaux/config.cpp
delicate comet
the wiki said it was best practice to have an x and an addons folder, but that seems alot simpler
just gonna move some folders here...
and symlink hob?
grand zinc
Best practice == agreed upon Standard
But not necessarily what you need to do.
Yes
hearty sandal
depends on who wrote that thing π
delicate comet
some of the wiki pages i find are like archaeological digs trying to find documentation on this process
i assume there is some kind of caching i need to disable to get filepatching working? how far back do i need to go? exit out of editor?
grand zinc
depends on what specifically you are talking about
mod configs cannot be reloaded, unless you are on diag binary
delicate comet
I've used the diag binary before to overwrite configs, is it possible to use file patching on the diag binary to edit the config itself?
now that my environment is set up correctly
grand zinc
diag binary has script command to reload config
that + mission restart can do the job in many (not all) cases

trying to find the Katiba magazines in the config of weapons_f but can't see them
do they haev a special name?
delicate comet
30Rnd_65x39_caseless_green

this wiki page has like every weapon and mag in the game
narrow musk
oh yeah, got confused with the other caseless ones, considering the mx ones are called caseless aswell
wait so this means it has no hiddenselections?
ouch
idle matrix
why would magazines have hiddenselections?
delicate comet
i could think of a few, like those quick release attachments or like a double mag
hearty sandal
you use magazine proxies for that...
though if you dont have access to the model and it does not have hidden selections then it would need new model
narrow musk
mhmm
yeah, magazine proxies,
proxies and their magazines
magazines made especially for proxies
jokes apart I think I have a rough idea of what they are
assuming I have an hiddenselection do I still need magazine proxies to retexture them?
hearty sandal
yes
you cant access the actual weapon or magazine model in game
a new config class for the new magazine is needed
and those magazines btw have hiddenselectiontextures
inherited from their base class 30Rnd_65x39_caseless_mag
stanags dont seem to have it
narrow musk
isn't that class for the MX?
hearty sandal
narrow musk
wait so it uses the same class inheritance for both the mx and katiba mags?
hearty sandal
so it seems
I stronkly suggest getting yourself the latest "all in one" config dump
its quite good for looking up this stuff
autumn crater
Is anyone here familiar with the pylon system?
delicate comet
if you extract arma to your p drive, and then open it in vs code, and set the language to C++, vs code can follow inheritance, even across unpacked mods
for example, I can ctrl + click on the classes parent, and it'll take me to where that class is defined
narrow musk
I'm not doing anything too absurdly complicate so far
so I'm using the a3 folder on the P drive
although that ctrl+ click function seems awesome
narrow musk
yeah thats pretty π¦
ok so it seems that the katiba has no proxy magazine
am I correct?

Is there a guide for including functions in a .pbo file by adding them to CfgFunctions? I'm trying to add a .sqf I wrote but I keep getting "Script Not Found" errors.

you can compare on how they are set up in the game configs.
BI forums probably have stuff on that too
perhaps even the WIKI
nocturne verge
did you check in ingame config viewer whether all your edits show up?
@grand zinc the cutscene is there under altis in config viewer
also cpp class Altis : CAWorlds { cutscenes[] = {"TF461ReadyToGo_scene"}; // Class names of used scenes. When more than one is present, the system will pick one randomly. };
because i use class Altis i have been getting alot of errors, but thats inheritence issues
grand zinc
Don't know how the game decides which cutscene to play π€
nocturne verge
thats the strange thing , thats the only cutscene for altis
nocturne verge
its loading random cutscenes , think its loading scenes from other maps
thought initIntro.sqf forces the intro to play on game startup?

I don't know what inits the cutscene
nocturne verge
https://community.bistudio.com/wiki/Arma_3_Main_Menu#Scenario i followed the bi guide to the word and that didnt work so i am completely lost

initintro runs once your cutscene was chosen
if its not chosen at all then it doesn't change anything
I'd say, remove the cutscenes from the other terrains
nocturne verge
I'd say, remove the cutscenes from the other terrains
@grand zinc was thinking the same , as i just opened editor on altis , closed it and my scene played, however i keep getting all sorts of inheritence issues should i then say
class Altis;
class Altis : Altis
{};
```>?*
grand zinc
what
no thats not how inheritance works
You already did it correctly above
repeat the same for the other terrains and do cutscenes[] = {};
nocturne verge
You already did it correctly above
@grand zinc i know , but for some reason i get errors likeNo entry 'bin/config.bin\CfgWorlds\Altis.timeOfChanges
and if i play the editor then i getNo entry 'bin/config.bin\CfgWorlds\Altis.gridNumbersOverLinesand a few others
grand zinc
sounds like wrong inheritance to me
nocturne verge
exactly , I don't know how to inherit it properly because the guide bi gave doesnt include inheritence
grand zinc
remove your mod
nocturne verge
and i got these error without trying to inherit as well
grand zinc
go to ingame config viewer and see what it inherits from
without trying to inherit as well
no inheritance is also wrong inheritance.
Or look at a AiO config

Anybody know about how to get turret cameras working? I have been working on a mod and I can't get the camera in my UAV to move from the default forward-facing direction.
livid heath
does it move ok in buldozer?
if so, then it's a config issue
you can also add a gunner proxy to it as a temp move to test the turret works normally with a mounted gunner
ok so i'm certain BI implemented a random animator for decals / texture variants etc
I'm looking to randomise number decals on a vehicle. i.e. d_num1 displays 0-9, d_num2 does same etc.
was some new system implemented for that? or do we have to write init EH function like the old days?
hearty sandal
class AnimationSources
{
class RandomCalvaryText
{
source = "userPositionHashedInit";
initPhaseArray[] = {0, 0.2, 0.4, 0.6, 0.8, 1};

initPhase = 0;

Can i override that somehow ? I need to get rid of the pack/unpack function for the CH-53 ( always sets fuel to 1 after unpacking).make a config patch addon that creates a new edited unit that uses your new edited functions.
livid heath
where did you find that class above HG?
hearty sandal
all in one config
fooor class Land_Calvary_03_F
fences and stuff with doors often have it too
or use the source = "userPositionHashedInit";
livid heath
ok will try that thanks
livid heath
ok i see i think
so there would be hides for each number at phase point 0, 0.1, 0.2 etc
livid heath
so you have 3 numbers on each side of a vehicle, that's 30 meshes each side = 60 meshes.
hearty sandal
30 bones if you want same number on each side
livid heath
i guess section count too
hearty sandal
dunno what kind of impact that would have. could be nothing
livid heath
well having all 10 textures present at once, would make section count +10
livid heath
so would have to remap all the numbers onto one texture sheet
hearty sandal
yes I suppose so
livid heath
im tempted to stay with the old way
hearty sandal
whats the old way? π
livid heath
initEH rolls a 10-sided dice 3x and setobjecttextureglobal resulting texture on each number decal
section count +3
hearty sandal
all numbers on same textrue, hide animation for each part, 1 section. adds 30 bones though
120 faces
livid heath
also stacking up 10 number meshes on top of each other is crazy, imagine, just imagine the pain in the ass managing the face ordering every time you paste something into that lod?
hearty sandal
only 1 of them is visible at given time though
livid heath
true
hearty sandal
shouldnt it be same bother as with just 1 plane
livid heath
but i don't want a 10 layer thick wafer of crap in my beautiful model
hearty sandal
xD
well thats different matter
Id wager either way is fine
the animation source methods pro is that it works on terrain placed objects
since its just engine driven animation
livid heath
hmm, i wonder if we could animate a texture using this source, to slide it along the mesh like a tank track
hearty sandal
but for a vehicle thats not a issue
with UVanimations yes it should work as a source too
livid heath
so have a 1x1 window (mesh) and a 10x1 stripe of numbers moving along it
hearty sandal
possibly yes
hearty sandal
thats my new thing π π

@livid heath thanks for the help earlier. I didn't know you could check views in Bulldozer - I've only ever used it to look at the external 3d model.

No problem. Did you find the issue?
narrow musk
https://pastebin.com/pGqGEXK9
can't see the magazines in the arsenal or on the weapons
neither me or PBOproject can find any error
am I missing a parameter to make the magazines present ingame?
strong shuttle
scope = 2 ?
narrow musk
it marks it as an unkown parameter when I use it
let me try again
strong shuttle
although that should come from inheritance
and you should have a CfgMagazineWells entry to add the magazines to the weapon(s) which support it
narrow musk
oh I though that was what class TransportMagazines was for
but even with scope I can't see the magazines in the arsenal
I correct myself
the magazines are ingame but are not compatible with the rifles
though inheritance would cover that considering the magazines are the same
strong shuttle
TransportMagazines only sets the default mag in the weapon, not support between weapons and magazines
narrow musk
ok so cfgMagazineWells should cover that
strong shuttle
yes, which has the following format (for vanilla stuff):
class CfgMagazineWells {
class MX_65x39 {
BI_Magazines[] = {"30Rnd_65x39_caseless_mag","30Rnd_65x39_caseless_khaki_mag","30Rnd_65x39_caseless_black_mag","30Rnd_65x39_caseless_mag_Tracer","30Rnd_65x39_caseless_khaki_mag_Tracer","30Rnd_65x39_caseless_black_mag_Tracer"};
};
};
Where in CfgWeapons you add the following:
// weapons class
magazines[] = {"30Rnd_65x39_caseless_mag"}; // mag class names
magazineWell[] = {"MX_65x39","MX_65x39_Large"}; // magWell class names
isn't that redundant?
strong shuttle
magazines[] works great, but can't be extended unless you override each weapon config. Since it only works on single magazines (which can be a huge amount).
magazineWell[] works by grouping magazines, and can be extended more easily without changing the weapon itself (or all weapons which use the same magazines).
And since Arma used to have magazines[] only it's still there, but magazineWell[] is prefered.
narrow musk
can I use both?
strong shuttle
that shouldn't be an issue, because the above snippets are from vanilla configs
narrow musk
oh got it
yeah managed to get both ingame
although my custom tracer model (a blue retextured A2 one) can't be found for some reason, does it have to be in a specific folder?
strong shuttle
path is relative to mod path, and sometimes requires a forward slash at the start and sometimes not
narrow musk
oh yeah its probably the damn slash
still can't understand the logic of when to add or remove it
