you would need a translucent PAA. As for the offset it could well be a resolution thing, Arma is a mess with resolutions internally, from my experience.

Is there a way to disable the background entirely now, or do I have to add an empty PAA to the mission file?

Also I noticed that the UI is no longer in the centre but a bit offset to the right. I have to manually set the X to -0.1 for each module. Unless that's some resolution issue, I'm on a 2k screen currently.

happy to hear it helps, let me know if you run into any issues

Thank you for making this, I was trying to do this myself but suck at scripting and I love you for making this, like-- a burning passion. Who ever you are.

(I haven't tried it yet but I will download your mod soon)

[THC] Cunamo, it was skip waypoint in trigger. I got it.

@GOMZLIKE you can try to ctrl-c the working setup, then open your mission and ctrl-v it in there. then something else in your mission is triggering the condition. What is the condition of the trigger?

@ A. Ares, yes. The triggers are same.

@GOMZLIKE, this sounds more like a trigger setup than mod's issue! Do you use exactly the same triggers every time?

the dialog shown up no matter of condition. when I set the trigger and the blufor condition, the dialog is triggered immediately at the beginning of the mission without satisfying the condition. Although when I create a new mission and do everything exactly the same, it works. That is, it works every other time,

alright! I appreciate your response, have a good one :D

@tooffert i made a little test setup for it, so if you need an example add me on steam.

@Static, it wont work for zeus im afraid.
@Tooffert, Like Infallible said you can make something with adding and removing custom actions its a bit complicated though. it is on my wish list to add but i haven't found time to work on it in a long time.

Hey bro! this may be a really dumb question (it probably is, I've never done stuff for Arma-3 other than playing Game Master and doing base game missions) but, is there anyway this could work in gamemaster? I ask cause I had some ideas with a friend but, I'm not sure if there would be any way this would work, thanks! (Again, this is probably a stupid question, sorry if it is)

@Tooffert you need to have the conversation set a variable. Then have another trigger looking for that variable, which will then allow you to choose a dialog option. Example:

innie_ignore_4 addAction ["My Cool Response", {missionNamespace setVariable ["Convo_1_1", true, true];},[],1,false,true,"","_this distance _target < 4"];

Then have a trigger with the Coniditon: !isNil "Convo_1_1"
The trigger is synced to a conversation.

Can you make it so the player can answer?

@fortnitebotgvk I just time it.
I'll have a npc talk and just time how long it takes, then add that time into the trigger

Not in the same way as you use a trigger, but there is a code block for code to run after the dialog line is done. There you can run the code directly, or set up a normal trigger to listen to a variable, then set that variable to true. add me if you get stuck on it.

can these be used as triggers, i wanna make a task appear after the dialogue finishes?

@mr. remember: we use it on a dedicated, should be fine, just remember that the module runs client side.

Oh my god WHERE WAS THIS ALL MY LIFE!

Having trouble getting this to work on a Dedicated Server. Does anyone have a quick guide or suggestions to get this running on a Multiplayer Server?

I did do that with multiple times, still didnt work for some reason

Path is relative to the root folder of the mission, so if you have Mugshot.paa and its in the root folder next to the mission.sqm, then the path in the module should be "Mugshot.paa". Try putting the image on a user texture object or empty whiteboard object, see if the game accepts it in general.

Here, just put a link.

@Infallible Kitten
I don't understand? where do you want me to post them?

@Abstrat, can you post images of your mission folder and how you have the pathing in the module? I also used 512x512 images but I dont think it matters as long as its a power of 2.

Hello
I'm having trouble with the mugshot override feature, i can't seem to make it use the paa's im using, i don't know why, ive tried using the path to the file and just having the file in the mission folder aswell. both dont work, ive also made sure they are 256x256 paa's

YIPPEE SERVER BIKEY

Bikey^2

I see no Bikey, everything else is there but no keys folder with a Bikey

thank you

Ow and feel free to add me and poke me directly if you encounter an issue. Steam absolutely sucks at informing me of comments here. MadSoloSniper's message is the only one i was notified of and only really today.

should be fixed now, i don't know if the issue will return as i have no idea how it was possible in the first place. my local copy is fine, but once pushed it to the workshop, the PBO file was missing all the .sqf .cpp and .hpp files, all the code files basically.

I second the comment of @Molten - getting the same error, thought it was me, let us know when it's sorted. Thanks, love the MOD so far.

I think you might have removed your primary function that runs the mod. That or you removed the executable command that does everything. Since I too am getting: "Script\HCOLL_NpcDialog\functions\fn_NpcDialogTalk.sqf"

Since your latest update.

the mod is not working I lost the entire mission designed with dialogue.. I'm waiting for an update... Thank you

Yeah, the chats no longer pop up

After lastest update the chat no longer pops up with text and now idk what to do for my op tomorrow lol

Strange error after the latest update.
"Script\HCOLL_NpcDialog\functions\fn_NpcDialogTalk.sqf" not found.
Tried redownloading, no fix. Only mod ran.

@S.Fox.C.Koneko that's an odd one, but i have heard other modders complain about the scheduler becoming bogged down. If that is the case there is not much i can do about that, its an engine problem. But ill see what it could be.

@Oscar-101 ill take a look.

for some odd reason, the Bikey is no longer there, Could you make sure a Bikey is added so that we may use this amazing mod for servers

any idea why it just refuses to activate after an 1-2h of op? it works fine before/start of missions but for when need to it appear near the end it just wont, longer the op goes results in it not working if that makes sense

but no lines in config.cpp about classes.

and this one for recievers:

comment "Do we meet the criteria to recieve this message";
if(typeName _Target == "SIDE") then { if (side player != _Target) then{_InterruptCode = true;}; };
if(typeName _Target == "SCALAR" && !(isNull _PersonTalking)) then { if ((player distance _PersonTalking) > _Target) then{_InterruptCode = true;}; };
if(_Target == "Sync" && !(player in _units)) then {_InterruptCode = true;};
if(!(isNull _PersonTalking)) then {if(!alive _PersonTalking)then{_InterruptCode = true;};};
if(!_activated) then {_InterruptCode = true;};
if(!(call (compile _LineCondition))) then{_InterruptCode = true;};
if(_InterruptCode && !_PassBy) exitWith{};

the proplem in that there is no class info. We have this lines in NpcDialogueTalk.sqf:

comment "Defaulting arguments";
_TargetHolder = (_logic getVariable ["HCOLL_NpcDialog_Target", "all"]);
_Target = "all";
switch (_TargetHolder) do
{
case "WEST": {_Target = west;}; case "west": {_Target = west;}; case "blufor": {_Target = west;};
case "EAST": {_Target = east;}; case "east": {_Target = east;}; case "opfor": {_Target = east;};
case "GUER": {_Target = resistance;}; case "guer": {_Target = resistance;}; case "resistance": {_Target = resistance;}; case "independent": {_Target = resistance;};
case "CIV": {_Target = civilian;}; case "civ": {_Target = civilian;}; case "civilian": {_Target = civilian;};
default {_nmb = parseNumber _TargetHolder; if(_nmb != 0) then {_Target = _nmb;} else {_Target = _TargetHolder;}; };
};

That means that we can't use .ogg file and sounds for only one side.
The other part of the code is used for simple dialogue promt (It has all the classes for each side).

{
property = "HCOLL_NpcDialog_Target";
displayName = "Recievers";
tooltip = "All = all players, side name = players on that side, number = players within that distance of speaker, Sync = synced units";
typeName = "STRING";
defaultValue = """all""";

It doesn't work with opfor side. this part of code doesn't contain any info about side names. Dialog promt works for everyone on the server (for blufor and opfor at the same time) and we cant change it.

Our mods should make a baby together.

@[KaPuHo4Ka] | MecTb_Ka6aHa thank you.

I think I'll make a Guide about it in Rus\Eng languages about this mod.
I hope the author this mod won't mind.
