Hello,
I have found a weird thing. My MP intro works perfectly when the mission folder is not PBOd. When I place the mission folder in User MP missions, start multiplayer and play the mission, it works.
However after PBOing it and placing the PBO file in the ArmA directory MPmissions folder the intro won't start at all. It is simply ignored. It's the same problem on hosted MP as dedicated server. This is my solution:
DESCRIPTION.EXT:
titleParam1="Play Movie";
valuesParam1[]={1,0};
defvalueParam1=1;
textsParam1[]={"Yes, please!","No, not again!"};
titleParam2="Mission time";
valuesParam2[]={2,1,0};
defvalueParam2=2;
textsParam2[]={"Dawn","Night","Dusk"};
etc.
INIT.SQS
setviewdistance 1800
?(param2) == 1: skiptime 5
?(param2) == 2: skiptime 8.8
[] exec "film.sqs"
etc.
FILM.SQS:
?(param1) == 1: goto "intro"
?(param1) == 0: goto "nointro"
#intro
"intro stuff starts here"
etc.
I am using Amalfis old PBO tool from the OFP era, can that be a problem?
The mission time parameter works perfect strangely enough.
I don't understand. Any advice?
Sincerely,
Laggy
