I'm having some problems creating soldier DMs in 1.2 and 1.3.
I've changed svar7 (i believe thats the one) to refer to a custom vehicle list made up of soldier types (is* and fs* types) -- however the Deathmatch DLLs do not seem to take well to this, as they will instead spawn a 'dummy' version of the soldier type next to the player rather than spawning the player as that type. "Ships only" mode will cause the player to repeatedly die as they do not spawn inside of a ship.
I've also tried using the vehiclelist idea for (1.2) ZEMOD's soldier DMs however even this does not handle spawning properly.
Is there something i'm missing?
yeh this requires .dll work. ZEMOD has a custom .dll that it comes with that lands in the missions folder, cant remember the name of the file though. Best bet is to grab it for each version of BZ2 (so ZE 1.3 for 1.3 and ze1.2 for 1.2).
AHadley was making a SDM mode for the add-on pack, but stopped because the .dll needs to help it work. Nielk1 was going to take care of it by adding some code and a toggle i believe.
How is that DLL coming along, NK?
I just tried it in stock and it works fine, so i'd compare the stock pilot odf's with what you have.
@ AHadley, its not. He's been waiting for me to release beta 10, which i now have BTW. GO GET!
Is it for 5.1? Or do I still need 5?
it'll work in either i believe, but final product will be designed for 5.1
OK, good :-D

You are using different pilot types right? I think that the default DM DLLs are hardcoded to spawn you was *spilo/*suser
I've got a class-based DM, every time I respawn its as a pilot.
