Большое спасибо тебе за проделанную работу. Это очень упростило создание трейд зоны на сервере. Данное советую всем кто будет делать трейдера на основе dayz-expansion-market. Автору респектую) Лайкос с меня)

i was able to get this to work for other modded items but the fish in gebs fish, i cant get them to work but can the variants of fishing poles

[@panosfxable]

The step with the dayz editor needs to be done? i did all the files to add snafu weapons and install them in a vending machine. i see the vending machine but i cannot interact with it.

[@courtneytorres9768]

i dont want the black market so how can i add the category to the trader? i made the file windstrider gear but i cant find where to add the category to.

[@Kr0naut]

Thank you for this video. Apparently I was doing an extra unneccessary step. I was also adding each item to the "items" area of the trader I was adding the items to.

[@ChiefPanda89]

so this is only possible for a local server? i cant install this to the traders in my nitrado server??

[@TrueTwoIdiots]

i just tried to change the trader to vending machines but i cant press F to interact

[@sidarthus89]

Make sure the class name is correct and ensure your JSON is valid

My traders aren't spawning any ideas? I just installed the DayZ-Expansion-Market on the server. Is loading the safezone areas just no traders or the extra buildings and etc that goes with the traders. I haven't done any editing to these folder yet just for heads up. I'm new to all this server editing shit lol

[@sidarthus89]

Make sure you copy over the traders folder and objects folder

[@jfearsum]

@@sidarthus89 see I'm confused bc those folders are in ExpansionMod folder in HostHavocDayzserver folder. Then I have Expansion folder in my mpmissions/dayzOffline.chernarusplus that has the settings and traderzones. does it only read whats in the dayzOffline.chernarusplus folder since its reading the safezone areas?

Just saved me hours of work lol

completely lost classnames aren't in half these mods

[@genearguelles3048]

Having a problem with this. I followed the video step by step but can't get the new category to show up. I copied an existing market file and renamed it to test, deleted all the items except for 1 and added my info. I assigned the test category to the trader . After reset it doesn't show up at the trader. I went over the files many times. Can't see what's wrong.

[@genearguelles3048]

found the problem. Can't declare classnames more than once in the market folder.

[@sidarthus89]

@@genearguelles3048 sorry about the late reply. Glad you got it. Yea, that’s a small thing I don’t mention, the expansion devs have evolved thier syntax for json and such over the years. It use to be the file would fully clear out. Now they just set it to not load the file. Glad you got it fixed

[@genearguelles3048]

@@sidarthus89 One small problem still remains. I have a vehicle mod that I put up on the trader which has 4 different variants. When I created the main vehicle, I listed the other 3 as variants and added all the items for all 4 variants to the vehicle parts trader.. The file worked fine but if I purchased one of the variants it would spawn in with no attachments. My final solution was to add all 4 variants as separate listings. It works but I guess it's not ideal. What confuses me is the default vanilla vehicles with variants work fine and I set my file up exactly like they did. Like I said, it's a work around but it works. Thanks for all your help. I learned a lot.

[@sidarthus89]

@@genearguelles3048 so I’ve seen something similar. Some stuff I’ve tried is putting the wheels first and then other attachments. It gets messy when you have color variants where the parts are separate. So correct, not ideal in all cases

[@genearguelles3048]

@@sidarthus89 Thanks, I'm gonna play with that. see what happens. Thanks again.

[@randomheroez7304]

i just followd this vid re watched 4 times im guessing i messed up some where tho cuz items are all there but it wont let me buy it just said {the item can not be spawned}

[@randomheroez7304]

So I figured it out had to edd types file

[@jeffnewnam9225]

Could you explain or make another video on adding vehicles since of all the attachments

[@sidarthus89]

So no real need to another video I don’t think. Suggest reviewing the Expansion default vehicle file and copy the structure they use for vehicle attachments. Mainly…ensure wheels are first

[@dwaynethelame]

You sir... THANK YOU! SO MUCH xD

[@BLOODRAINxp]

great video man, easy to follow. keep the vidz up

[@davidmueller557]

Why you need to validate json files ? I have the problem i added SNAFU weapon pack but all works fine without my buttstock and muzzle / suppressors are missing can you tell me why ? Need to add it via spawn editor

[@sidarthus89]

You need to validate to validate that they are formatted correctly. If your file is not in the correct syntax(format) then the category will not load

[@davidmueller557]

@@sidarthus89 bro youre my hero and thanks for writing back so quick !! Greetings from swiss bro

[@sidarthus89]

@@davidmueller557 of course. The validation is “less” important now that the expansion team changed the behavior of the system. It use to wipe the whole file out if it wasn’t formatted correctly. So a missed comma meant you lost the entire file’s setup. Now the system will just refuse to load the file of its not correct. That way you can trouble shoot that file and fix it

[@davidmueller557]

@@sidarthus89 bro for real i spend 10 hours on fixing it day for day i was so sure it was a comma fail , i went straight back home after work tried your xml verf. You posted and it worked so easy really thanks a 1000times bro hahah so happy it worked Ps maybe you know that , is there a eay how you can stay on version 1.18 when 1.19 drops ?

[@derekcarswell30]

I need help or a video on how to do this the traders worked perfectly soon as I downloaded the mod trader don't work so deleted the mod and trader still no working

[@556shampoo4]

hey love your videos, is there a smart way to remove traders from the expansion. Example: I just want green mountain, 1 boat trader and the aircraft trader....remove the other ones. Seems to make errors if you just remove the files for the traders you dont want. Thanks!

[@sidarthus89]

Check out episode 7. You should just be able to remove the trader.json, trarder.map, and objects.map files for the trader you don’t need

[@sidarthus89]
