yeah ive got that just having trouble getting it work i have tried this way but then my server wont show on the server list 

Informal guide:

• Download statusbar
• create addons directory
• Add all contents of the status bar into addons
• Structure should look something like this:
• addons(dir) > statusbar(dir)
    > icons(dir)
    > statusbar.hpp
    > statusbar.sqf
• Unpack/Open your mission pbo (Exile.Altis.pbo)
• Add the "addons" dir to your pbo
• Open/edit description.ext
  add the following lines at the bottom but above CfgRemoteExec

  class RscTitles
  {
  	#include "addons\statusBar\statusBar.hpp"
  };

• Save description.ext
• Open/edit initPlayerLocal.sqf
  add the following to the TOP under #include "initServer.sqf"

  ///////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////
  // Static Objects
  ///////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////
  #include "initServer.sqf"
  [] execVM "addons\statusBar\statusBar.sqf";

• Save initPlayerLocal.sqf
• RE-PACK mission PBO
• Upload to server..enjoy
• pat self on back
• drink a beer
• have a cookie
• give your mom a hug

am i doing somthing wrong

its a little outdated, being that initserver.sqf is not in the initplayerlocal.sqf

but if you followed the directions and it does not show up, then do you have infistar installed?

TBH i recommend you get ExAd, it includes a statbar and XM8 apps (You can disable the stuff you don't want)

there are also 2 other types of status bars

For anyone else... what the Op did is correct but make sure Statusbar is StatusBar or the same as your folder's file names.Punctuation is key
