Do the 1.7.7.1 loot files work for 1.8?

I mean the method and changing line values.

Yes, it should still work. You'll probably need to do a few more steps though because the mission file is now almost empty it just calls #include from dayz_code.pbo

Files you'll need
  • dayz_code\system\mission\description.sqf
  • dayz_code\system\mission\init.sqf
  • dayz_code\system\mission\mission.sqm
Now copy them to your mission folder (can be the same folder you use for loot files but DO NOT put them in the root folder).
Once you've done that, go to the root of your mission folder and open these files
  • description.ext
  • init.sqf
  • mission.sqm
In those files change the '#include' lines to point to your new files. Now any changes for scripts or custom loot etc should go in your copied over files, not in the files in the root of your mission folder.
