One of the only good things with my host is I don't have to pack or unpack PBO's. Just use FTP. The necessary files for the script are in my previous post. Here is the loadout script.
I don't use the custom loadouts bit, just the random starter loadouts at the top.

Ok so try this. Untested. But hey it should work.
Follow the instructions to set your files up so it does not provide the class selection in the OP. with everything in the, essentially fresh.
Next find this in the spawn.sqf:

Code:

//#include "class.sqf"

Directly underneath this place

Code:

[] execVM "spawn\loadouts.sqf";

Take your Loadouts.sqf and remove this;

Code:

Use the way that this scripts manages the custom loadouts in the server_functions.sqf, just copy what you have already into it.

Now place your Loadouts.sqf file in the same folder as the spawn.sqf as per the OP (the "spawn" folder). If you have change the folder name amke sure you change the:

Code:

[] execVM "spawn\loadouts.sqf";

To how you have it described, such as:

Code:

[] execVM "MYCUSTOMFODLERS\SOMEWHERE\spawn\loadouts.sqf";

Thats it, just repack and load up and let me know how you go and/or hat following errors you get.

ReDBaroN · Aug 19, 2014

On my server, players are using an exploit to get round the 4km exclusion zone after death (which I increased to 8kms) by clicking on random and then just not opening their chute if too far from their dead body. This way they die and try random again until they get closer to where they want to be. I want to keep a map in my default loadout and I want to keep halo as an option.

Is there anyway to make random also go through the exclusion after death code and if it has run out of spawn locations to go to a fixed coordinate? I would then set this to extreme south west.

Any help greatly appreciated.

Nemaconz · Aug 23, 2014

I applied custom skins from namalsk to the list of spawnable skins, however when I spawn in with the skin and log out and log back in I'm back to being a survivor, I noticed that this does not happen with the skins you provided by default, any idea how to fix this?

Brave Sir Robin · Aug 23, 2014

Sounds like they are not saving to your DB.
Have you applied them in he missions sqf as addons?

Nemaconz · Aug 23, 2014

You might be right, I added the appropriate files to the mission.sqm (really I just moved them from auto addons to addons and there are no addons I believe in the mission.sqf) in any event, it's still not saving the namalsk skins after relog. Hmmm..

Nemaconz · Aug 23, 2014

Fixed it, went into server_playerLogin.sqf and commented out the last three lines of this if statement. Works like a charm now.

if (!_isNew) then {
//RETURNING CHARACTER
_inventory = _primary select 4;
_backpack = _primary select 5;
_survival = _primary select 6;
_model = _primary select 7;
_hiveVer = _primary select 8;

//if (!(_model in AllPlayers)) then {
// _model = "Survivor2_DZ";
//};

Can anyone help on this? I would really like to close down this exploit. Thanks...

If I were you I'd go into spawn.hpp and comment out the random button so it no longer appears as an option to spawn with, look for this

class btnRand: e_RscButton
{
idc = 1625;
text = "Random";
x = 0.6 * safezoneW + safezoneX;
y = 0.230556 * safezoneH + safezoneY;
w = 0.0422917 * safezoneW;
h = 0.0188889 * safezoneH;
action = "spawnSelect = 41;";
};
and do this:

// class btnRand: e_RscButton
//{
//idc = 1625;
//text = "Random";
//x = 0.6 * safezoneW + safezoneX;
//y = 0.230556 * safezoneH + safezoneY;
//w = 0.0422917 * safezoneW;
//h = 0.0188889 * safezoneH;
//action = "spawnSelect = 41;";
//};

That way if you ever want to turn it back on you can just remove the comment out lines.

Hey man, thanks for the reply. This is great but, one quick question....

We are a heavy PvP server so, what happens if a player gets killed, say 3 times in a row inside 30 minutes and runs out of spawn selection points? Will they get dropped somewhere still or get stuck at a blank spawn screen?

Is there a way to make random either open chute straight away or, even better only be able to spawn on the ground and not halo? Is this easy to do?

Thanks for any help.

Nemaconz · Aug 24, 2014

If you want to remove the halo option for random then you'd have to write some sort of if statement into the spawn.sqf, off the top of my head it'd be something like this at the very bottom:

this line is already here:

if (haloSelect == 1) then {player setPosATL [_position select 0,_position select 1,2000];[player,2000] spawn BIS_fnc_halo;} else {player setPosATL _position;};

I'd add this right under it:

if ((haloSelect == 1) &&(_seldRandom == 1)) then {player setPosATL [_position select 0,_position select 1,0];[player,0] spawn BIS_fnc_findSafePos;} else {player setPosATL _position;};

Not saying that this is going to work and this would still allow them to select the halo option, it would just spawn them on the ground instead of being in the air and this is just off the top of my head, I'm an amature at best with this stuff. Good luck!

Cheers mate, I'll give it a go tomorrow when I'm a bit more awake...! I'll also change the text for random in spawn.hpp to tell players they'll spawn on the ground. I'll post back here either way to let you know if it worked.

Hi, unfortunately this didn't work. Random still allows you spawn in halo mode. Any more ideas.....?

I've setup the script perfectly as instructed however, the donation classes aren't working. I've replaced the UID's with the new Steam ID's and it still fails to work? Any reason behind this?

Hi, can anyone help? I'm trying to disable halo when the random spawn button is used....

Thanks

RamonaTigier · Aug 28, 2014

heya..
would love to say "great work", but...

followed installation guide and there is no selection.. no class nor spawn..

using vanilla epoch 1.0.5.1 and @DayZSauerland map..

any ideas??
EDIT:
okay, found the eorror.. not pbo manager 0.14beta nor cbpo nor totalcommander plugin were able to unpack "$PREFIX$"...

now i use PBOView and everything runs fine..

now its the time to say, thank you for this very good working skript..

many thanks..

Bump, would really like to solve this exploit and I'm sure to someone in the know it would be fairly simple to disable halo when 'Random' is selected.....

thanks for this
myself and my PLAYER (yes singular) likes it

calamity · Aug 31, 2014

Anyone able to help fix my problem ??? I seen a few had this issue but no answers

I set the coordinates for my base but it spawns me in the water FAR FAR away....

my database coords [136,[14728.6,16796.7,0.241]]
donorListBases = [
[14728.6,16796.7,0] //-TC-calamity
