I'v been testing to make missions but there was no PR:game type modules or game logics.. So I suppose it works by scripts or functions... So I'm glad this thread is here and the template will come =)

But two questions!

When the template is out. Is the mission testing possible if you set up a self host and try it out with friends?

Can you upload self made mission on PR certificated server and play it with public or does it need PR team approval first? - I guess it works regular arma 2 way so players download mission file automatically from the server but is there any limitations on it?

Even I don't have clear answer on that. So sorry I could not give you clear answer on this.

In my opinion I think there should be some special approval script implemented, just to keep it in the spirit of PR (ya know, someone in the community makes it, it goes through vigorous testing by the devs, then testing by the community sometimes and then it gets implemented). Although that's obviously up to the DEVs.

Any news on the mission templates?

I know you're busy and don't have much time but if I extracted the pbo would I be able to basically learn/use the required scripts from that pbo to make a pr misssions? I've done it with ace missions so I don't see what the big difference would be. To any of you guys who want to ty it here's a link to a pbo extractor from armaholic Arma Tools - Tools - Armaholic it'll extract all the pbos and other essential files from MOST pbo's. I haven't got around to testing it so good luck, also I'm not sure if it breaks any of PR's rules so do it at you're own discretion.

Well, none of the PBO extractors I used successfully extracted the mission PBO. Anyone found something that works?

Thanks.

Yeah I also got my hands on the template (you need to ask for it on the RGG TS3). The main problems is that the templates don't include everything, so you'd have to figure out what stuff to add if you want stuff that don't exist in the original template missions. For example I had to try more than 1 object until I found the correct working FOB crates and static weapons (actually titled "mounted weapons" in the object list). And of course had to test to see that I actually placed the correct FOB truck in the mission.

I can't recall how many times I thought WTF when I started learning about A2 and PR mission editing. I was totally new to it. New to A2 editing in general. But it didn't take long at all to understand the very basics, so don't be discouraged!
