applejaxc

I'm working on it... ;) I'm personally going to be a naked rainbow.

I'll do you one better; the Elektro fire station has a R870 with some slugs and a crowbar in it.

SO I went into my config.cfg file with Notepad++ to make a new message when spawning into the server. Satisfied that my code and syntax was correct, I tried to load up my server. I got to "Host created," then an error pop up saying, "line XXX had "." was expecting "=" (or something similar). Scared, I restored the file to its previous state. I tried undoing what I did by hand. Every time I try to fix my problem, the "Line XXX" changes to a different line. // // config.cfg // // comments are written with "//" in front of them. // GLOBAL SETTINGS hostname = "Applejaxc" // The name of the server that shall be displayed in the public server list password = ""; // Password for joining, eg connecting to the server [s]passwordAdmin = "not telling you";[/s] // Password to become server admin. When you're in Arma MP and connected to the server, type '#login xyz' reportingIP = "arma2oapc.master.gamespy.com"; // For Arma2: Operation Arrowhead logFile = "arma2oaserver.rpt"; // Tells ArmA-server where the logfile should go and what it should be called = // WELCOME MESSAGE ("Hello and welcome!") // It can be several lines, separated by comma // Empty messages "" will not be displayed at all but are only for increasing the interval motd[] = { "Welcome to the Applejaxc Server!", "Have fun!", }; motdInterval = 15; // Time interval (in seconds) between each message // JOINING RULES maxPlayers = 50; // Maximum amount of players. Civilians and watchers, beholder, bystanders and so on also count as player. kickDuplicate = 1; // Each ArmA version has its own ID. If kickDuplicate is set to 1, a player will be kicked when he joins a server where another player with the same ID is playing. verifySignatures = 2; // Verifies .pbos against .bisign files. Valid values 0 (disabled), 1 (prefer v2 sigs but accept v1 too) and 2 (only v2 sigs are allowed). equalModRequired = 0; // Outdated.

My fix efforts, unfortunately, reset my server. Instead of sitting in Chernogorsk with three guns, I'm sitting in Elektro with a G17 and a SA50.

Really? Hmm. The example file I was using had them split up. Thank you. :)

I've got an AKM and Survival ACU with someone's name on it. Who's going to take it from me?

Sorry to the 5 people that joined my server today, including Inception., but a technical failure resulted in the wipe of all progress in DayZ on my server. That being said, I know that 3 of those 5 players died 1 to 2 times in half an hour, so I doubt much progress was really made. I personally lost a PDW, DMR, and a MP5SD. Very sad. The server has been changed so hopefully more players will be able to start anew with us.

Thank you. I just copy-pasted (and edited what needed to be edited) it from another mission's .cfg and it seems to be working. Can someone tell me what I did that fucked it up though so I don't do it again, other than the comma?

Are you kidding? The spawn in information takes FOREVER to disappear, especially on a slow computer. You think I couldn't go up a flight of stairs in the time it takes for it to go away?

Because that stuff takes BLOODY AGES to go away?

I hate sittingfor 30 seconds when I'm laying in a field. I actually got to 30 seconds, then my character randomly stood up and it reset my counter, then the "Cannot log out in combat" persisted for 5 minutes. Were YOU the dead body with the Lee Enfield and MP5SD? My band is dedicated to DayZ while I play. I can guarantee (to east coast players) good connection speed; I was playing earlier today with 5 players online, and no one went above 180 ping (which I consider playable). The only time anything might go wrong is if I need to upload/donwload something and can't turn the server off because players are online.

Either your PC hit the shit, or it's a virus/bug that survived reinstallation.

I'm going to use that in court someday. I just know it.

It's part of the start up in mission editor. "Briefing." It involves creating a mission.sqf file... and it's a giant pain in the ass. :)

My 3D wasn't at 1280x720. :) I didn't spawn behind him. I spawned downstairs. It's the same as if I were to run in from behind (where he couldn't see me) and up the stairs. I was running with a resolution that didn't match my screen size.

I stopped reading at "Doesn't count as a murder." If you shoot them because they refuse to give you something, it's murder.

Always day is always lame. Playing at night is SOOOOOOOOO fun :(

What the heck do you mean, you attempted an ALT+F4 ON MY SERVER????? XD I logged in at the bottom of the firestation, ran up stairs because I heard shooting, and laid down behind a bandit. He's now dead :)

I've heard similar stories. Crazy people with fireaxes. I once took down 3 bandits before the rest of the group (of 10) shot me.

I think he's joking, too, but you can't be too careful man. And yeah, we signed in at the same time. :) (I was REALLY hoping to hear your voice and/or give you a blood transfusion)

XD *sniff* o-okay... :)

Chernogorsk. I'm a bandit hunter :)

I'm sorry man, but I did say "Vanilla"; I'm running the files right off their website.

You won't experience problems until you hit ~200 man. And I'll give you a free Tank. How is that?

Aw hell yeah man. Some quid-pro-quo? We're freaking 1337 here. And can you find my other server advert (Applejaxc PVP Deathmatch server) to the graveyard for me? Thanks a bunch regardless. I've got 3 players on :)
