Shadow Moses 1 Report post Posted December 12, 2014 I have an Arma 3 Epoch Server and for the life of me I cannot find where to change the time or the time zone. It appears to be set to EST but I am not sure. We would like to have some daytime to play during our evening game sessions. Can anyone point me to the right file and folder?

StealthyMartian 65 Report post Posted December 12, 2014 I sure can help you a bit. Head into your FTP Client and log into your server. From there go into @EpochHive Next edit epochconfig.hpp inside of notepad++ When inside of there you will see the following: // Time based StaticDateTime[] = {}; // {0,0,0,8,0} would forces the server to start at 8am each time it is started while allowing the year, month and day to stay real time. Any values left at 0 will result in no change. timeDifference = 0; // Server uses real time this will allow you to offset just the hour. timeMultiplier = 4; // Sets a time multiplier for in-game time. The command range is now capped at 0.1 - 120 to avoid performance problems. I am not entirely sure on how to change it fully but that is the just of it, but I am guessing timeDifference = 0; would be something like timeDifference = -6; for central time. I will test this on my test server later on when I am back from work to see if this is indeed the correct way to do it. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
