Adding Custom Vehicles tutorial - no rMod


Recommended Posts

--Work in progress--Feel free to correct me or add suggestions--

 

Took me forever how to figure out incorperating custom vehicles into survival servers but im pretty sure i have it narrowed down.

This worked for me on two seperate occasions and hopefully it works for you

 

Anyone, even the clueless can do this...

But if you have any questions msg me on steam JDMTeckadmics

 

 

To help understand better there is a patch for DayZ where a multitude of Arma 2 and OA vehicles were unbanned, the full list is here,

http://opendayz.net/threads/unbanned-ve ... rmod.8277/

 

Here is a list of vehicles that worked for me...

GAZ_Vodnik_HMG

MV22

UH1Y

BTR90_HQ

BMP3

AAV

LAV25

HMMWV_TOW

M2A2_EP1

M2A3_EP1

M1A2_TUSK_MG

HMMWV_M998_crows_M2_DES_EP1

HMMWV_M998_crows_MK19_DES_EP1

BAF_FV510_D

AH64D_EP1

BTR60_TK_EP1

MLRS

AW159_Lynx_BAF

How to get and Spawn them

1. Simply go to TC Admin

2. Turn off your server fully

3. Go to Mod Manager tab in TC Admin

4. Uninstall Chernarus, then uninstall the the patch and everything else you may have

5. reinstall Chernarus, then this time install patch ARMA2 OA Build 102936

6. Start the server

7. Insert whatever vehicles you would like from the list in the link above but be warned some do not spawn

via Survival Servers admin map tool, right click and area and choose insert a custom vehicle

8. restart the server to spawn the vehicles

9. And that's it. It is safe to switch back to the newer ARMA2 OA Build once the vehicles have been added

 

Typical Question...

 

Q: i cant use any vehicle guns i just get banned?

A: Its BE script 87 or 85, You can modify this by going to

File Manger > Bliss > Battleye > Script.txt and then applying this (make sure server is stopped)

 

!"_vehicle setWeaponReloadingTime [_gunner,_muzzle,1];"

 

to the end of this

 

5 setWeaponReloadingTime !"\"setWeaponReloadingTime\","

 

so it will look like this

 

5 setWeaponReloadingTime !"\"setWeaponReloadingTime\","!"_vehicle setWeaponReloadingTime [_gunner,_muzzle,1];"

 

Q: I can`t see the vehicles, or else my friends cant see them?

A: This is due to either the server is still running the wrong update/patch version or i find in some cases (about 40% of the time) people have the wrong local update/patch installed. Another thing Ive noticed is it helps when starting from steam choose "launch beta" when prompted. I'm not sure how or why this works but it does. I personally always use DayZ commander with everything updated and I can always see the vehicles.

 

Q: I still can`t see any vehicles after the above fix?

A: I‘m still looking into what causes this to be stubborn, if you have any ideas please feel free to share but I am still looking into this.

 

Q: I cant refuel or repair any custom vehicles?

A: This is because they are non DayZ vehicles, you have to go through the DB or SS tool and repair and refuel them that way. Don't forget to rs the server for the changes to apply.

 

Also note that some other special guns like MLRS and Bombs still just dont work, i'm looking into a way to fix this. BE is kicking some of them when used and some explosives have just been fully removed.

We've added this "patch" (community assets) to our Mod Manager.

 

Find a guide in the FAQ titled "How to Install Community Assets on Chernarus to Enable More Vehicles"
