6thSense.eu Presents: Pack1 v0.2. ArmA v1.08 Compatible. (By Sickboy)

BIS Forums Discussion Thread

This package contains 5 Modules by 6thSense.eu:

  • 6thSense.eu-Misc v0.2 - Contains functions, scripts and settings used by other 6thSense.eu Addons, and More!
  • 6thSense.eu-Blood v0.2 - Enables Unit Dammage (Bleeding etc) and Special Blood Squirt Effects
  • 6thSense.eu-CRDS v0.2 - Enables Unit Dammage (Bleeding etc) and Special Player Hit FX
  • 6thSense.eu-Tracers v0.2 - Enables Tracers for MG's & Vehicle Weapons
  • 6thSense.eu-EditorUpdate v0.5 - Enables otherwise hidden classes inside the editor so you can place them :)

You do not have to use every module. SIX_Misc.pbo is the only one that is required by the other Modules


Installation

  • Place the Addon folder: @SIX_Pack1 into your ArmA Installation Folder
  • Place the dta folder into your ArmA Installation Folder, so the contents of the dta folder should be copied to your arma\dta folder
  • Edit your ArmA shortcut to include the mod, add: {{{ -mod=@SIX_Pack1 }}}
    • or if you have multiple mods, per example: {{{ -mod=@ModWar;@MAP_Air;@SIX_Pack1 }}}
  • Place the Demo Missions in your Missions or MPMissions folder and experiment
  • You can remove any Addon from the pack, except SIX_Misc.pbo as it is required for most of the other modules


Notes

  • 6thSense.eu Blood, CRDS & Tracers all require 6thSense.eu-Misc
  • You can use 6thSense.eu Misc and the EditorUpdate independently
  • You can choose to use Blood and/or CRDS and/or Tracers. So you can enable Blood and CRDS while Tracers are disabled or visa versa, however you like

  • People who's work was an inspiration to me, aswell as credits for their included code.

Info

Misc

This SIX_Misc addon will be used by many of the 6thSense.eu Addons.
It contains many functions and scripting logics which are used by other scripts.
Main Features:

  • 6thSense.eu SIX_Base Functions
  • 6thSense.eu Network Services "Lite" v0.5
  • 6thSense.eu Unit Tracking + Grouptracker for displaying friendly group locations (DISABLED BY DEFAULT, PLEASE ENABLE IN SIX_Misc.hpp)
  • 6thSense.eu Body Remover (DISABLED BY DEFAULT, PLEASE ENABLE IN SIX_Misc.hpp)
  • 6thSense.eu UI Settings for Chat Messages
  • 6thSense.eu Disable Radio Voices option (VOICES ENABLED BY DEFAULT, PLEASE DISABLE IN SIX_Misc.hpp)
  • MAPFact.net USMC Markers, inside SIX_Markers
  • Universal Init Eventhandler System, allowing to hook in any addon
    • With support for ArmA Anti-Cheat (ARMAAC) by MadDogX. When SIX_Misc and MDX_ARMAAC are combined, the anti-cheat will automaticly activate server-side. No mission editing needed.

Please always make sure you have the latest Misc Addon.
Try 6thSense.eu Mod, which adds on top of all these goodies a huge Addon Base with many different camo's, vehicles etc. etc


Installation

  • Please review the Pack1 Readme


Demo Missions

  • None ATM


Notes

  • Check dta\SIX_Misc.hpp for user settings
  • SIX_Markers.pbo addon is only required if you have tracking === 1; and #define SIX_MARKERS in your SIX_Misc.hpp
  • You can also place the SIX_Misc addon into any other modfolder to your likings.. just make sure the dta folder has the .hpp files
  • For nearly all functions, it is important that you name your objects, especially Player objects. E.g: player1, player2, player3, player4 etc. etc. Tank1, tank2, tank3
  • To name a non-editor-placed object (so created by createVehicle or createUnit etc) equally on all machines, please check the six_fSetVarName function.
  • The script uses the isServer function (introduced in v1.07beta+), it will however create a server logic for legacy purposes, if there is none available
  • One can make his mission permanent compatible with SIX_Misc, even when there are all vehicles, units etc. placed on the map that would have overwritten init eventhandlers, is to add to the mission init.sqf the following code:

{{{ 

  private ["_miscInit"];
  _miscInit=getText (configFile >> "SIX_Misc_EventHandlers" >> "Init");
  if(_miscInit !== "")then{call compile _miscInit};

}}} 

  This is even compatible with servers or clients that don't have the addon!! There should be no error if there is no SIX_Misc addon.
  But when a client has it installed, it will be enabled

Tracers

This Tracer Addon uses a tracer model instead of particle source.
We are still considering using a particle source at the bullet as ignition/light source.
FPS should be seriously increased compared to the hundreds/thousands of particles we used before ;-)

This tracer addon is based on many peoples addons, ideas, thoughts and other contributions.
Though the current state of the package; config wise, model wise and script wise is a nearly
completely rewritten and rebuild package, by Sickboy and Garlay.
Credits are found at the end of this Readme.

Demo Missions

  • Demo1: Incl. Day & Night Time Choice
  • Demo2: Incl. Tracer Configuration on Mission Level, please review h\SIX_TracersCfg.hpp


Notes

  • Rifle Tracers are enabled by default, unless the "Rifle Bullet Tracers" difficulty option is set to "Disabled", or if you override through SIX_Tracers.hpp
  • The Mod disables default BIS Tracers, if you still see them you probably did not install the Addon right
    • Or another mod is overwriting ours, please disable others systematicly to check.

FAQ

Is this addon "compatible" to G85's Editor Update?

Yes, 1 way.
Missions made with this editor addon will work even when you don't have this editor addon installed.
But, missions made with G85's Editor Update, will not work if you don't have their addon installed.
