Location and Spawn Information

[Wambo1992 9]

Hi,

i'm in developing some Tools for DayZ like a Map and i want to create a database too.

My question is:

Where can i find all the exact locations e.g. Deer Stands, Fuel Tanks, Farms etc.

And where to find information about weapons, their range, drop-rate.

Can i extract these information of the game files?

Thanks so far,

Wambo

um...if you can't find that with google...you should use an existing database...and not waste your time trying to make one

from all the other maps already available

fuel spots http://dayzmod.com/forum/index.php?/topic/31558-fuel-spots/

towers/lootable buildings/vehicle spawns/main petrol stations/water pumps yada yada http://dayzdb.com/map#4.039.089

And where to find information about weapons, their range, drop-rate.

bunch of these already floating around as well just do a forum or google search

You must write a script which scans map for a particular model, e.g. deerstand or fuel tank, and export it's coordinates (to clipboard for example). Run this scrip in Editor on Chernarus map.

To learn all the weapons features you need to unpack weapons.pbo in DayZ mod folder and study\parse the config files. They contain all the tune up for guns.

I know that they are floating around but my answer is, where did they get them from?

Because i want to be able to get those data by my own to keep my application easily up to date.

Edit:

Okay, thanks Mikhail.

This helps me.

Hi,

i managed to get the position + angle of each object and to get some information about weapons like minRange, maxRange, Magazines, etc. and some more.

But anybody knows sth. about drop-rates of loot or spawn info of zombies, like zombie-type, amount of spawned zombies?

I think they are somehow connected with special buildings , e.g. deerstand. Or those buildings are connected with categories like military, farm, etc.

Where can i find this info?

Thanks ;)

A Map with all of the spawn locations already exists. http://www.dayzdb.com/map

It is built off of google maps and is accurate.
