Sounds intriguing Oliv82.

The thought of liberating a town over-run by AI sounds cool....

I guess we'll have access to all the Arma2 weapons and vehicles, including tanks...?
 

[Oliv82]

Hi Eric, yes, all vehicles,
bicycles, cars, armored, helis, aircrafts
all classnames are added with their price for each type
Same for weapons-handguns, exept I need to test the Dayz system damage of vehicles for each type, i think 90% of vehicles are OK about this point,
BTR-80, Scud truck, CH-47 Chinook and Lynx are not actived because of the damage system (wrong classnames of vehicle parts I think), and all 8 wheels vehicles too

Changing clothes script is redone and a lot of details like that

About missions, in fact the spawning missions system is copied from Wasteland but I will adapt the "Evolution red" code for the "Liberate Towns" part of the game, By including civilians, it must be a challenge to avoid kill them, thats the reason Ive the idea to add them (if you kill civs, it result neg. points etc..)
About Radio Tower, idk for the moment, I need to analyse codes from EVO to know the possible things or not

I mainly play on EVO servers and I can't wait to test my mod with EVO codes :p, Wasteland is for the survival part of the mod :), but the survival/medical hud is still "old" Dayz 1.7.6.1

But about vehicles again, I will take a look between player progression and growing AI skills, few vehicles are very powerfull and you can destroy 1 army just with a tank, thats the reason armored vehicles are very expensives, if ennemy destroy your tank you lost 1 day of game :p

Sounds good, a valuable asset should be deployed wisely :)

Perhaps the rewards could be linked to number of kills (or your humanity / point system). Would there be the Red, Blue and Independents sides?

As least with the Independents you get to kill everyone....
 

[Oliv82]

I work on civilians moves actually, they can spawn a Civ vehicle to move to city_A to city_B (with random factors)
Differents civ classes have own vehicles classes (business class cant drive tractors.. etc)
I need to add dayTime conditions, and fix few bugs

About "humanity" points, Its a sort of "reputation", player-> civ, player-> policemen, player-> army
bandits can be killed by army or policemen
You start the game with a neutral réputation, so bandits factions won't target you before 3 bandits kills

if you kill a civ, you are considered as bandit, so all factions will target you

[Eric the Viking]

Sounds really interesting and well thought out Oliv82 :)

Can't wait to give it whirl!
 

[Oliv82]

Hi Eric, now bugs are fixed, version stable, good fps :)

I tried a lot times to use Alice or Alice2 for civs but I had too many scripts errors :(
Mine are very simplified, do the job and works :p, it mean civs dont have discussions, but they can react at gun fires, (mmm.. maybe a script to gain civ_reputation when you heal civs... something like that)

I think too to script smokes effects for houses chimney with daytimes conds but not for now )

[Slaiine]

any news on this ? Any idea when you will release it ?

[Oliv82]

Sorry for the long delay post, I still work hard on this mod, but it take long time to test, Ive just finish a heli taxi system for chernarus, there's still few minors bugs, at the moment the mod is playable (~80% finished)

Next step will be to work on "liberate towns" scripts and work on cop/player relations

[Oliv82]

First alpha released check op if you want to test !
I still hunt minors bugs at this state of dev. :)

[AlmighttyBozz]

Woah looking good can't wait to try it out.

[Eric the Viking]

Ok, I don't believe I'm dumb, but, well, I'm not having much luck getting this running....

I've copied the Arma 2 OA install to folder /A2Wastland

I've downloaded the weapons packs, copied them to the folder and renamed them as per your command line.

Added the CBA_CO  & AEG folders, again as per command line. Your command line pasted into shortcut:

D:\A2Wasteland\Expansion\beta\arma2oa.exe "-mod=Expansion\beta;Expansion\beta\Expansion;@DZ1987_noZeds;@CBA_CO;@AEG;@M77WWIIPack1.15;@M77WpnPack1.81" -nosplash -showscripterror

The game when launched shows all "addons" present but when running the following error appears;

"Cannot play (blah blah) due to deleted; kpfs_ammo_ww2, kpfs_mpi74, kps_g3, kpfs_sks"

Am I doing something wrong?
 

[Oliv82]

Thanks for replies guys

Mmm I ve forgot to upload Marseille77 configs files, because Ive changed thos files its normal what you have errors Eric

Nah, it's cool. It didn't actually stop me from playing - I deleted the "missing content" references from mission.sqm so the game would launch...

With the new 3.4, working fine now, no visible errors. I'm not sure how I interact with the missions however...
 

[Slaiine]

I am confused about how to install this. I am getting errors. I do not understand what to do with the wasteland folder that was in the missions folder. Sorry, normally this is straight forward for me.

[Eric the Viking]

Hey Slaiine,

You don't have to do anything with that folder, simply copy everything in the @DZ_WL1987Chernarus_v3.4(14-12-2015).rar into the root of your Arma 2 install.

Note the emphasis on the latest version (3.4 at this time) above!

I create a new folder for every different mod; I created a folder called A2Wasteland and copied my Arma 2 OA install to this folder. I then extract Oliv82 files into that folder.

It should look like this;


 
In the shortcut in the folder edit the "Launch Arma2 OA Beta Patch" file so the highlighted section (see picture below) reads;

D:\A2Wasteland\Expansion\beta\arma2oa.exe "-mod=Expansion\beta;Expansion\beta\Expansion;@DZ1987_noZeds;@CBA_CO;@AEG;@M77WWIIPack1.15;@M77WpnPack1.81" -nosplash -showscripterrors

And in the "target directory" section you should have;

D:\A2Wasteland

Like this;
 



NOTE You would need to edit this to reflect your drive letters and/or folder name!
 

[Slaiine]

Thank you Eric, does this need DZ 1.7.6.1 like the first chernaus 1987 mod ?

[Slaiine]

or everything it may need from daizy is already in the mod folder ?

[Eric the Viking]

No, you don't need anything other than Arma 2 and Oliv82's single file download (in his first post).
