Arma 2 Dayz Overpoch Earplugs

[Phantom-Pain]

Can someone please help me. I been looking for a earplugs script for Arma 2 Dayz Overpoch and can't find one. I have seen them on several servers and wanted to try it on mine.

dayz_spaceInterrupt.sqf:

//0x16 = letter U
if (_dikCode == 0x16) then {
    execVM "scripts\earplugs.sqf";
};

earplugs.sqf:

if (isnil "var_earplugs") then {
    var_earplugs= false;
};
if (!var_earplugs) then {
    1 fadeSound 0.1;
    1 fadeMusic 0.1;
    var_earplugs = true;
    systemchat 'You have put Earplugs in!';
} else {
    1 fadeSound 1;
    1 fadeMusic 1;
    var_earplugs = false;
    systemchat 'You have taken out your Earplugs!';
};

I tried it but it didn't work. Can you please give me some simple instructions on how to make this work. I am still a noob at installing scripts if they don't come with instructions. Thank you.

do you have a compiles.sqf that is already in the mission pbo?

 

[Phantom-Pain]

Yes but its in a custom folder. I forgot what script it came with. This is how its setup:

In your compiles.sqf do you see dayz_spaceInterrupt.sqf at all?

 

[Phantom-Pain]

Yes

 

[Inkko]

Yes

Change

dayz_spaceInterrupt =            compile preprocessFileLineNumbers "\z\addons\dayz_code\actions\dayz_spaceInterrupt.sqf";

to

dayz_spaceInterrupt =            compile preprocessFileLineNumbers "custom\dayz_spaceInterrupt.sqf";

Then you need to unpack dayz_code in the epoch mod files and copy dayz_spaceInterrupt.sqf and paste it right next to your compiles.sqf

Open the dayz_spaceInterrupt.sqf that is in your mission file now and add the line I linked above into it around the middle somewhere. Save and create a new file called earplugs.sqf and paste the code for it above and put it in a folder called scripts.

I just tried that also but it still didn't work. I am guessing some other script is blocking this script from working. I do have infistar installed. Could that be the reason why its not working?

I have infistar as well and it works just fine. Can you link your mission pbo and I'll take a look? You press the U key to toggle the action.

 

[Phantom-Pain]

Okay I sent you a link to the files in a conversation.
