I dont know what shards are, Ill need to look into it:) but if a private shard stops players carrying gear over from public servers I will probably not use them, But thank you for the info it will help:)

Haha, well at least you are honest, But that really does suck, even just the logs would be a great help. Lets just hope I dont have any issues until a later date:)

I also miss the Tools, They were so helpful, especially Dart, I would sit with it online 24/7 and if anyone ever thought someone was hacking, all they had to do was type Admin and the problem and I would Look into it by combing through the logs, If it was a hacker or anything else similar then I would dish out a kick/Ban and If the person re-offended I always had their IP address that I could ban if they changed their names. Now I feel Im flying blind, People could be hacking, and I have no way to even speak to any of the clans or communities that visit my server, So unless I witness it, I am unable to ever Ban a hacker from my server. This means if my server is hacked often that people will not come onto it, which ruins the whole experience. So if it stays this way I doubt I will keep my server, since I may as well just be playing and letting someone else worry about it, which i think is unfair.

Hello, Last Year I ran a server on the mod for several months and used to comb over the server logs to find Hackers and items that shouldn't be in the game, After a long time I decided to get a server for DayZ SA but I cannot find any way of repeating this, or talking Via admin chat to players who wish to voice their concerns about players who I could then look into from the logs. If anyone could help or even point me in the direction it would be greatly appreciated, I loved being able to help people who used my server and always tried to keep it as clean as possible, but at the moment these are causing me snags. Thank you very much for any assistance:)

Where do i put these files? I cannot find a location with a similar name etc?

Ok I just feel like an idiot, I cannot get onto almost every server now because they are all running Version 1.62.xxxx I cannot find this version at all, And I don't know how to install this hotfix. I know its stupid but can someone please point me in the right direction? Im using windows Play withSIX.

Yeah I found the same file in 3 different locations, I edited all 3 and it still has the same issue.

I tried this and all of the difficulties have it set to 1 but still there is nothing showing up.

Hello, This is just a simple question, On some servers if someone talks in side chat it shows the name of the person using it, On my server I must have that disabled as I can never see who is talking, and when the server is busy its impossible for me to deal with people talking and not knowing who to warn/kick. Please let me know which file to edit or change so I can change this:) Thank you:)

Hello, I have been an admin for about 2 months and most of the time the server owners update the filters, But now its my turn to do it, What is the best way and where in the server files would I put them so that they work effectively?

This might sound stupid and a bit delayed but i Found that whilst i was on the server and logged as admin, a majority of major hacks never happened probably because they could see someone was on that could do something about it, I've been testing it for a while, even whilst away from the house if i stay logged on the complaints of hackers dropped insanely. If you have one just give it a try:)

Thank you very much:)

Hello, I'm just about to update my filters to the latest version but I am curious, will this kick/ban people even if they accidently pick up a hacked/bannned item? Not everyone knows what is legit and what is not so I dont want a person to be banned for no reason?

Thank you very much, I have been running the logs Live and watching them whilst playing, I managed to find people hacking and teleporting quite easily just watching the info streaming, To update the BE Filters i just delete the old ones and upload the newest ones dont I? Will this Kick/ban people who have a hacked item accidently? For instance a new player picking up a gun thats in a namalsk server but not in a Chernarus server?

Thanks ill get looking into it, I managed to find a second one, I accidently drove into it and blew up my ATV and died instantly lol I never even seen it.
