Trying to install
a Plot for Life

Question
I have noticed that some of the call outs for A Plot for Life are the same as Group Management, I was wondering if i could just put in both since the complie.sqf are in two different folders or if since they are the same file. That starting those 2 up would cause problems. Not sure if i can post an example of the lines that would conflict.
Thanks in advanced

I think they do conflict, because of the Complies.sqf and variables.sqf no?
My Group Management and A Plot for Life isnt working.

why would the compiles and variables files cause any conflict? you make all your edits to the two files you imported into your mission.
 
so I would make the Group Management edits/changes to the files that are for A Plot for Life?
I am also getting Waiting for server to start authenticating.

check in your rpt logs for errors.

  1. you copy the dayz_code/init/compiles.sqf into your mission. this is your local copy that you will edit.
  2. Edit your init.sqf to point to the copy in your mission.
  3. make all the changes that each and every script calls for in this file.
  4. if you have used one of the Sheeps Epoch Repack files then its already installed. Edit the file that has already been transferred into fixes folder.
Some people release scripts and tell you to just insert a copy of compiles.sqf with their own changes only .. that is incorrect because if everyone did that, you would have 10 compiles.sqf files to load and when you run into problems you have all those files to search for the problem instead of 1 .. and they might actually overwrite each other. To make matters worse, I have seen a script that actually made all the edits to the compiles.sqf and wanted you to use their copy which overwrites any and all changes for your other scripts.
Edit a single copy of compiles.sqf and variables.sqf

Okay so mistakes were made, cause im a noob. So I just copy the changes that were made in the one complies.sqf into the one I already have? Just to be clear.
Have you heard of a program called diffmerge?
 
I am collecting meme's. I am hoping to eventually not have to type anything and have a meme for all occasions :D

I dont know how diffmerge or the like, would work because your compiles.sqf files that are included with other scripts are not complete files, they are just individual code blocks that are tacked on at the end of your current compiles.sqf

So yes, you are going to look at the instructions for the script and at the supplied compiles.sqf and insert those changes into your default compiles.sqf

back to your main problem though is the Wait for Authentication. did you develop this issue after installing the latest scripts or has it always been an issue? you need to post ...
  1. arma2oaserver.rtp log
  2. dayz_server.pbo
  3. mission pbo
  4. picture of your sister in the shower.
 
Well I am working on getting the files working together, but im running in circles at the moment. I think I might be going about this the wrong way. Why is there no upload for this website?

Click to expand...
exactly ...
you have to upload to dropbox/googledrive/owncloud and post a link. To post error logs or sqf files for review the best method is pastbin.com and again post the link.

dont forget about the shower picture ...

No errors in the rpt file. Dayz server pbo usually isnt cause for connection issues. Your host probably doesnt use a pbo compressed mission, its the entire folder.
If we get that, I can drop them into my test server, start it up and see what is going wrong ..
I really dont want to get involved into the group management installation personally (time consuming and I heard a rumour the internet is going to turn off the porn so trying to catch up before then) but with the mission file I (or somone else who is lurking .. like Alex lawson .. I KNOW you are watching) can maybe get you on the right path.

the authentication error we can fix though .. with the mission folder. zip it up and post it ..
 
Heres the mission file compressed

Group Management is already installed in all of my files, i have that working. I think its just trying to figure out what files from "a plot for life" and add the sections. I just dont know for example which dayz_code.pbo I should use because there is a sqf (publicEH.sqf) file that is located in there. This is that last one I need to add, all the rest have either youtube video tutorials that I have found, or are really easy to install.

Did you like my spoiler?
 
Update:
I dont have the installation files with the "a prop for life" in the files, I used a backup version of my Dayz_server.pbo.
