As i said, i've already tried 0 and it had no effect. One interesting thing is that i noticed only team leaders auto report! :huh:

So i'm at wits end with this flipping auto-report, i've tried every method that the search turned up, and whilst i can get the customdifficulty to work in all other regards, the auto-report still reports! :banghead: Heres the configs, can anyone spot what i'm doing wrong here?? server.cfg // // server.cfg // // comments are written with "//" in front of them. // STEAM steamPort = 8766; // default 8766, needs to be unique if multiple serves on same box steamQueryPort = 27016; // default 27016, needs to be unique if multiple servers on same box // GLOBAL SETTINGS hostname = "SimHQ - Tactics and Teamwork Arma 3 Server"; // The name of the server that will be displayed in the public server list password = "im_not_that_stupid"; // Password to join the server passwordAdmin = "im_not_that_stupid"; // Password to become server admin.

FYI, Tao has been "afk" for a good year or so now without contact. He used to play regulary with our group, but stopt playing to focus on studies n such. I dont "think" he'd object to someone taking this on and actively working on this or taking responsibility for it, when i last talked to him his respone was "blimey! that still works! wow!" :)

bingo thats done it! thanks kju! B)

so no ideas then? :(

heres what i have: Mod folders of required addons for the reskins loaded and selected in the launchers mod section My reskin pbos (Meaty_units_opfor.pbo and Meaty_units_reskins.pbo (reskins pbo holds the textures, units just the configs) loaded and selected in the launchers mod section after the required mods "enable file patching" tick box ticked in the launchers paramaters/advanced section of the launcher Meaty_units_reskins.pbo in unpacked form in the main Arma3 folder and selected in the Mods box in parameters/basic section in the launcher unpacked reskins.pbo has a $PREFIX$ the same as the packed version which reads "Meaty_Units_Reskins" , config file is unbinarized in the reskin folder as well. Textures are done via hidden selections in the Meaty_units_opfor.pbo config file like such hiddenSelections[] = {"Camo1","Camo2","Camo3","Camo4"}; hiddenSelectionsTextures[] = {"Meaty_Units_Reskins\data\PragaV3S\v3s_kabpar_ind_Chern_co.paa","Meaty_Units_Reskins\data\PragaV3S\v3s_intkor_ind_co.paa","Meaty_Units_Reskins\data\PragaV3S\v3s_koloint02_co.paa","Meaty_Units_Reskins\data\PragaV3S\v3s_refuel_Chern_co.paa"}; When i load arma3 i see a seperate jigsaw piece down in the mod list in the bottom left which shows my unpacked reskin folder, so its seeing it. And as i said before, if i restart the game it loads the new textures in the reskin folder. I've been testing by reloading a saved mission with the rextured unit pre-placed. Also what do you mean by reinit?? I've not heard that term before.

so the filepatching is a step in the right direction for sure, but i'm not sure i've got it working right. It sees the changes after closeing and restarting arma3, but if i copy new textures into the folder and re-load the editor its still the old textures on the model. Is the best i can get or have i set it up wrong?? The textures are in paa format if that helps.

Is there an easier/quicker way to view re-textures other than compiling the mod, adding it to arma3, loading arma3, going into VA or the editor ?? Something like a model viewer that will load a class name and display that model? Its a major pain having to load arma3 each and every time when your doing a vehicle rexture and find you need to move a camo line 5 pixels to the left for it to line up correctly, or finding THAT part on the uv map by painting each bit a bright colour. Is there isnt any other way, any chance of a simple model viewer (doesnt have to export or anything, just display the model and textures) ever being added to the tools?? It'd be massivly usefull!

that doesn't work, that only separates the units into factions, the icons for those are, or were, only used in the editor lists as well. Going by the silence as well i guess nobody knows?

Or, if the icon design is the same but the colours different (think RHS style) then its a good way of showing what belongs to which faction so there isnt any clipping of uniforms etc :)

What i'm trying to do is have multiple mod icons in one '@mymod' folder. I can get one to show using the mod.cpp with ease, however what i want to do is have the blufor stuff to have one icon, indfor stuff to have a different one and opfor to have another different one. Going by searches i think what i need is a 'CfgMods' entry, however i'm not having any luck getting even one to work :( Heres what i have class CfgMods { class Mod_Base; class Meaty_BAF: Mod_Base { author = "Meaty_BAF"; picture = "\Meaty_Editor_previews\Blufor\BAF\M_BAF_logo.paa"; logo = "\Meaty_Editor_previews\Blufor\BAF\M_BAF_logo.paa"; logoOver = "\Meaty_Editor_previews\Blufor\BAF\M_BAF_logo.paa"; logoSmall = "\Meaty_Editor_previews\Blufor\BAF\M_BAF_logo.paa"; dlcColor[] = {0,0,0,1}; fieldManualTopicAndHint[] = {"Meaty_BAF"}; hideName = 1; hidePicture = 0; tooltip = "Meaty_BAF"; tooltipOwned = "Meaty_BAF"; name = "Meaty_BAF"; overview = "Meaty_BAF"; }; }; with 'Meaty_Editor_previews' being a seperate pbo which includes all the little editor preview pics (which all show up just fine) then in the units i want to have that logo i have dlc = "Meaty_BAF"; any ideas what i'm doing wrong? or am i chasing a dream and this isnt possible at all?

and for those who want to know what code to add to the trigger :) In the 'Condition' field put = !alive t1G t1G is the name of the mortar gunner In the 'On Activation' field put deleteVehicle myTarget1; with myTarget1 being the object your mortars are "aimed" at :)

Great script! works great for arty vehicles etc, however if i add it to a mortar it keeps firing even with the crew killed. Anyway to stop this script running when the crew dies/leaves? :)

This is just a little quick(ish) edit of the lighting configs on the CUP maps, as all would agree the new lighting doesnt really work on the older A2 maps. This is pretty no frills, its not perfect, but its better. It also doesnt use tonemapping=2 so if BI removes that render mod, this mod will still work, that also means content will work predictably in terms of looks between maps (A3 vs A2). Mod is fully signed and so long as money isnt made with this mod, then do what you please with this addon. That includes uploading to clan websites (so long as there free), includeing in mod packs (again, so long as its free) or using the settings in your own (free to get) map. This mod will not fix the "black sky" issues on non CUP A2 maps. Also if anyone wants to de-binarize this addon and use the setting then by all means do so. Download = https://dl.dropboxusercontent.com/u/34537696/%40MeatyCUPMapLighting.rar Heres some screenshots, click for bigger

yes it does, but as mustangdelta said, CUP did that already, this fixes the over brightness of the lighting. Also, water updates to remove the tropical water look. As i said before, this isnt perfect, but its an awful lot better than it was, it also has the advantage of using tonemapping=1 in case BI remove the second setting.
