Vilayer server - disable 3rd person etc.

[boxman80 964]

Just a quick query. Weve got a Vilayer server (presently running Taviana). It's all patched and uptodate but it's been running since just before the 2.0 update.

Ive tried to disable the 3rd person view (found the config option to allow me to do this and it's set to "disable" 3rd person) but it doesnt seem to be applying this setting. I've also noted that the server isnt running the changes tavi 2.0 is supposed to ahve implemented, or at least all of them, for example ive not seen any of the new vehicles or weapons spawn yet.

I presume it's becasue i have to do a full "reset" of the server, but ive heard of servers not needing this and that just applied the 2,0 and its features without losing data.

Anyone else who has a Vilayer server (prefereably running Tavi) have a similar experience or have any advice?

Hi there,

The setting for 3rd person e.d. are done in the server.cfg file :

// MISSIONS CYCLE (see below)

class Missions

{

class DayZ

{

template = dayz_1.Chernarus;

difficulty = "Regular"; // ***************************************This should be changed to "veteran" or "mercenary"

};

};

Change "regular" to "veteran" or " mercenary"

Mercenary will disable 3rd person view.

To manipulate the settings with even more detail, you can change the settings in the " cfgdayz.ArmA2OAProfile " file :

class Difficulties

so "1" is "on" and "0" is "off"

Hope this helps

All the configure files on vilayer have warnings about not editing files while the server is running. I'd imagine you'll need a restart at least.

Thanks lads, but yea i've found those configs already and applied them (while the server was offline) and the game seems to be ignoring them though,...

Shoot me a PM with your IP and I'll take a look at it for you.

I had another play around with it tonight and it appears that 3rd person is working just fine now, but I'm still to see any of the new weapons or vehicles Tavi 2.0 added though. Server address is 94.242.227.166 Port: 2542

Id rather not lose any gear for our users though as the server is really getting busy recently
