Yes, I had both the @dayz_epoch and @tavi enabled in the ARMA2:OA expansions.
Now, in respect to the @START_TAVI.bat file, my file has the line 18 as:
start .\arma2oaserver.exe -mod=Expansion\beta;Expansion\beta\expansion;ca;@tavi_epoch_server;@tavi -name=atomicmulch -config=config\tavi\tavi.cfg -cfg=config\tavi\basic.cfg -profiles=config\tavi
There are other lines before, which copies the dll files over to the @server folder, connecting to the database, database initialization.
So you have suggested that line 18 should be:
start "arma2" /min "Expansion\beta\arma2oaserver.exe" -port=2315 "-config=config\tavi\tavi.cfg" "-cfg=config\tavi\basic.cfg" "-profiles=instance_13_Tavi" -name=instance_13_Tavi "-mod=@Tavi;@DayZ_Epoch;@DayZ_Epoch_Server;"
My questions relate to the differences between my bat file and what you suggested:
1) what is the /min for?? Do you actually add the "ARMA2" to the start of the line?
2) why add the "-port=2315"?? So far, we have always had port=2302.
3)regarding the -profile=instance_13_tavi, does the instance_13_tavi folder/file go into the config/tavi folder??
4)regarding the -name=instance_13_tavi, again, I assume that instance_13_tavi goes into the Config/tavi folder...
5)what is the structure of the instance_*_& folder and where should it be placed?
6) regarding -profiles= are very different. in my version, -profiles=config\tavi, but in your version, the profiles points to the "instance" file.
Yes, my config\tavi\tavi.cfg does point to the correct mission file dayz_epoch_13.tavi.
Now, I have found two different @tavi folders. One contains a crap load of .pbo files in the addons folder (similar to the dayz/addons folder content) while the other only has about 4 pbo files within the addon folders. Do you know off-hand, which one should be used?
Now in my Epoch bat file, the -profiles=atomicmulch and your bat files has -profiles=instance_13_tavi, so as above, I assume that the instance_13_tavi file/folder should be placed in the Config/tavi/user folder or just the Config/tavi folder.
One of these days, I will understand this adequately.
