XM8 App scripting in 2018

[Pigeon Gone 1]

Hi.  I've been trying to implement the 'show base markers' script for XM8 on my server:

I've been reviewing threads on XM8 Apps  -  I see that as of 2016 the way to script XM8 Apps was to install ExAdXM8, obsoleting the Shix package

But even that seems quite out of date now (some features are in XM8 in exile by default) - in any case I found the installation did not work for me - server runs but the features don't load in XM8.  Is there an updated method for installing XM8 scripts/apps like this that I don't know about or  is installing ExAdXM8 still the way to get this working?

server info:

mod=@Exile;@CUP_Terrains_Core;@ChernarusRedux;@Ryanzombies;@EnhancedMovement;@AdvancedTowing;Kart;Mark;Heli; -servermod=@exileserver;

Arma3 and all mods are up to date as of August 2018.

Thanks for reading this and thanks in advance for any comments.

Hello @Pigeon Gone,

What @Brenner has stated is true.  You BEST bet, now, this is an OPINION, would be to REMOVE ALL OF THE EXAD stuff from your files (server AND client), make sure everything is working, THEN use the above to put in the new version of ExAD.

You can try to 'do both at the same time', but if you forget ONE THING, it will not work and your server may not even start!

Good luck!

Thanks for pointing me in the right direction @Brenner and for the comments @Z80CPU - I've got it working without VG -  wonderful!
