First of all don't buy CO! Just buy OA. You only need an OA CD key. Once you get the key, run the game on your alternate steam, close it, then follow these steps: 1. Open "Run" 2. Type in regedit, press enter. 3. Open folders: Software>Wow6432Node>Bohemia Interactive Studio 4. Right click Arma 2 OA folder, open permissions, hit advanced 5. Change the "Set Value" permission to "Deny", click apply 6. Close regedit, switch back to your normal steam account, and launch through commander as normal. Note: Your beta patch updates might give an error message saying "Wrong CD Key" but you can ignore these, your game still gets updated.

Freskie joined your server too eh? He really did some damage on mine, wish I had caught him before he stole our chopper. XD Nice job catching him.

Very happy to know that some people still care enough to maintain it. Thanks!!

Date/Time: Multiple occasions What happened: Usually when I damage my vehicle, get out quickly, and get back in, it repairs itself. Sometimes not. Sometimes it stays damaged until I interact with it with a vehicle part i.e windscreen glass or a jerry can. Where you were: Multiple locations What you were doing: Looting, driving, accidentally crashing the car, etc Current installed version: 1.7.2.6 Server(s) you were on: This can apparently happen on any server Your system specs: 256MB integrated HD graphics, 6GB RAM, 2.8GHZ dual core CPU, Windows 7

It's not standalone, they're testing the next mod patch. :P Edit: Smash beat me to posting. >_< Edit 2: Added you on skype R4Z0R.

Seth, I am the server owner of US 1994. It would be best if you appealed on the TBU website first rather than coming straight to the DayZ forums, as it takes us much longer to find posts about us on here. Furthermore, you're appealing a ban on someone else's ban appeal, so please make your own. In fact, please file an appeal at www.tbuservers.net/forum/ for further assistance. Thank you.

I'm the server owner of US 1994. The chat issue has been a problem before. I'll send a ticket in to the host to see if they can help fix this.

Does anyone know what this is? I banned the guy who triggered this, and I'm holding the ban until I know whether or not it's hacking.

#128 "0;}; private ['_dummy']; _dummy = [_this,'initDialog'] call compile preprocessFile '\ca\ui\scripts\handleGear.sqf'; _dummy = [_t" This pops up occasionally under someone's name. What is it? What does it do? If anyone knows, I'd love to hear it.

Hey to all, I've been wondering if a "SmallSecondary" is a legitimate item in DayZ. Can't find much info on the classname, and sometimes it pops up in the server logs under someone's name. And I currently have it blocked via addweaponcargo.txt -- but I don't ban for it. Any ideas on if it is actually legitimate so I can decide to unblock it or start banning for it? Thanks!

Hello to the DayZ Community! The Builders Union now has a public DayZ hive server available for anyone to come and play. If you're interested, come and join us! We work hard to stop script kiddies at every turn, so your experience on our server will be the best. So come on over, join the server today. Server IP: 64.31.51.154:2322

We usually do not unban people who get kicked for any SetPos restriction as usually these are the result of a failed teleport attempt (of a sort). A friend of yours vouched for you on the TBU forums where you posted your ban appeal. I've taken it into consideration and I have unbanned you. But if you keep getting kicked for restrictions like SetPos, or other abnormal restrictions that I personally know come from hackers, you will be banned again along with the friend who vouched for you. If you sincerely didn't cheat great, but keep in mind we will be watching you carefully on the server from now on.

I am the server owner of US 1994. The admin who banned you says you teleported, and that is how you got the chopper. But I looked in the server logs today, to back around the time of your ban, and I cannot confirm the validity of his reason, therefore you are being unbanned. You don't have to play here if you don't want to. But next time, I suggest following our instructions on filing a ban appeal on the TBU forums (www.tbuservers.net/forum/) as suggested in all bans given on my server.

Hi, On my DayZ server, someone joined and gave most (if not all) players in the server a bunch of rare gear. The scripter replaced everyone's gear with Ghillie Suits, Camo Clothing, a DMR with three mags, an M9SD with three mags, NV goggles, rangefinders, GPS's, and a coyote backpack with 2 frank n beans, 2 mountain dews, and 2 blood packs. I caught him through publicvariable.log and banned him within less than 1 minute. His name was Speedbug and here's the log proof: Please let me know if anything can be done. Thanks.

Does anyone know where the biplane spawns? Or is it not on official hive servers?

I ordered a server with Lowpinggameservers.com, thinking I was getting a public hive server. I was deceived because the order form didn't state that it was a public hive or private hive. When the server was set up, it was the Bliss hive. So I ask them to switch me to the public hive, and they want me to wait two weeks! No. Not gonna do that. I requested a refund from them, for now, I'm pretty much screwed.

Vilayer.com all of the way, man. Their pricing is great, great customer support, great servers. I recommend them to all!

It's almost been 24 hours since I ordered my server, and it's still pending. :/

I just purchased a server last night at midnight and it's still yet to be activated, no information for the FTP or TCAdmin received yet. Now I can't even go on their website, because it returns a 502.

When standalone comes out, will the hosting rules be altered, will they be the same, or will they be removed? The current rules make it so that essentially, you are not paying for a server you own. You pay for it, yet, you can get your server rendered useless should you not follow the hosting rules. Which really makes no sense. It's like being told how to spend your money. In my view, the hosting rules should be flexible. People don't want to have too many restrictions. It's obvious because lots of people have created private hives (which used to be against the rules too) just so they could have total control over their server. If any DayZ staff can clarify with me on this topic, that would be greatly appreciated. And if anyone thinks that they agree with any part of this, let me know.

Though no one is forced to use the public hive, the public hive is one of the main points of playing DayZ, so to not use it would take away a large part of the experience. Say that a server gets blacklisted, you paid for a server which you can basically no longer use. I'm mainly referring to rules 10 and 14. The other hosting rules are A-OK to follow in my view. Rule 10 states that if you see somebody using scripts, but you cannot prove it with logs, you cannot ban them or even kick them. That makes absolutely no sense. So what if this is prone to abuse? A hacker can hop on your server, use scripts, and go undetected in the logs (as this is clearly been done before by many hackers and scripters). And you can't back it up if he really hacked or not. All server admins should be allowed to kick and ban scripters on sight without having to worry about being incriminated or having their server rendered useless. If people really truly abuse their rights to ban, they'll show it, and people won't be happy and they'll speak up. I however do agree with the rest of rule 10 being You are not permitted to ban players for killing yourself or clan members. You are not permitted to shutdown your server when your killed. You are not permitted to shutdown your server when you lose a vehicle. You are not permitted to kick or ban for smacktalk.Those are all really good rules and should stay. If anyone doesn't follow those, they need a private hive. Rule 14 states PVP is enabled at all times no matter what rpg element the admin tries to set. I believe I speak for a lot of players who think that PVP should be optional! I believe strongly that servers should be able to control this aspect as lots of people really find it rather boring getting killed every 10 minutes by other players, and that they would rather play on a server where PVP is controlled at a basic level. No Random Deathmatching, etc. That can include not killing freshly spawned players, even. This is all part of the general idea. And this same concept does work on many multiplayer games, it could work here too.

Are military offroads still spawning in DayZ? Have not ever seen one in action.

This question is about the rules of DayZ server hosting. Will they be the same in DayZ standalone? Because they really shouldn't, it will deter a lot of people from wanting to pay for a server. Given the current rules, you basically are paying for a server that you don't actually own, you can't control it the way you'd like to. If that is the same in standalone, that may deter people from even buying hosting or buying the game. In my view, you should be able to moderate the server that you are paying for. You shouldn't be told how to spend your money. So if there's any clarification at all, please post.

They do tell us how we can run our servers that we pay our own money for. And if we don't follow the hosting rules that they'd blacklist us. So what's the point of even paying for a server if we can't use it as we please? If we can't use it how we want to use it, we don't own it. That's the point I'm getting at. We pay for it, but we are told how to use it. That really makes people not even want to pay for a server. And private hives are boring, no offense to those who enjoy them... I just prefer actual hive servers myself. :)

I have been alive for 34 days. Tonight, I was teleported for the first time by a hacker clan. It was scary as hell! I was teleported across the map, over 16km, in an instant. I'll be really glad once standalone comes out so at least it won't happen (as much, MAYBE).
