Looks like he was lucky not to die, because he disconnected fast enough. I don't think it was a hack, by your description. //Oh, you got a kill-message..then nvm.

I meant it sarcastically. You're right, it's lame, and i do not like ppl doing it either, and i did not relog to save my gear, because i have more then enough in our tents, it was more to survive and try another player to help me. I could have just get me killed, an AKM and some tools are found within less then 1hr playtime. Apart from this, i killed around 50 zombies while trying to survive and save my friend from being eaten alive. :P

Yes, i should be banned for this.

Need more details dude. These names don't help nobody.

The other day, the coordinates of a big clan base was made public and i wrote them down. Later that day my friend and i was heading towards the camp, on our way we found a car, but it was damaged. At the given coordinates, we found some dead body full of high-end loot, all you can image, except NVG. Sadly, someone saw us and fired a .50 cal at us, but missed. Next day, we logged in again and traveled around that area a bit. Found 2 fully operable cars with loot inside. We took both and drove away to our base while it was getting dark in game. One of the cars ran out of gas and we needed to hide it half way under some trees. We then moved on with the other car, refuel some jerry cans, parked the car at our base and went back to get the other car and bring it back safely to our base. //It was the first time we found cars which were driveable and it was out first time actually driving those cars. It was hell of a fun. :)

It's not cheating, it was just a bitch move from the sniper.

Seems legit, he might looted a dead body near a crashed heli.

Looks like someone was hacking/exploiting the server and killed all ppl. There a few threads here, describing the same, but on different servers.

Yesterday, after downloading 1.7.1.4, i logged into a server and i was still at NW airfield at the north barracks. I then decided to head to the firestation, some zombies were chasing me, so i literally ran into the firestation and up the ladders. On the middle floor i saw some guy standing outside on the firestation roof, but he didn't move at all. So i took my M9 and fired 6-7 shots in his back, waited a second, but he still didn't move, so i thought he was bugged or something, but suddenly, he turned around and took cover on the roof. I fired my last few M9 bullets into his body and he died, but his AK47 wounded me badly, so i went unconscious and died too. Lost really good gear though.. my M9, one M107 with 6 Mags, 3x GPS, second biggest backpack, camo clothing, almost all tools. But yea, it was totally avoidable, i could have picked my M107 and shot him in his back while he was not watching, or i could have talked over direct com with him, like i do normally. :D

Excellent work on fixing those bugs that fast, it's nearly unbelievably. Thank to rocket and his whole team.

Date/Time: 6/19/2012 - about 8:30 pm CET What happened: My friend and i were playing a few hours without problems before, we headed to the NW airfield, checking out a few towns on our way. After we arrived at NW airfield, my friend took position on the hill near NW airfield to cover me with a sniper, he was laying there for ~15 minutes, until he was teleported 2 citys back infront of a supermarket. Where you were: NW airfield What you were doing: I was looting the NW airfield, my friend was covering me from the hill outside NW airfield. *Current installed version: 1.7.1.1 *Server(s) you were on: EU7 *Your system specs: I don't know his system specs. *Timeline of events before/after error: Nothing special, i kept looting the NW airfield and he logged off.

Contradiction in it...duplicating items is glitching/hacking . it is having an unfair advantages... And i won't support this sort of game...duplicating is not a mechanic of the game , it's a bug trying to be solved...so you duplicate... I hunt you and that's all. and as you can see everyone has been doing it. I did not duplicate my items, so you're wrong, i guess..

Hey guys, i'm playing DayZ almost since it was released, but i never asked myself, do i need to save a tent, after i place new items inside it, so they don't get deleted after a server restart? I couldn't find an answer yet, and it really is bugging me to not know that for sure, because sometimes i lost some gear inside tents, i did not know if i saved after it, but i'm sure no other player stole those items.

Ah, okay.. i misunderstood your first post. Then thanks for the information.

Hey guys, i have a question about how admins decide whether or not they'll update to the newest dayz-version or staying with an old one - or are the server admins forced to update to newer versions instantly? Because with 1.7.1.1 there is a bug that allows you to easily dupe your complete inventory + backpack, so basically, if i want to do so, i just join some 1.7.1.1 server and dupe my gear, but that's fucked. So, yea, i just want to know if it's ok to run a server with an old bugged version, or do you guys risk getting server blacklisted this way?

Okay, thanks LVG.

It's not like i'm to lazy to save the tents, but i never thought of maybe losing items when not saving the tents regularly, that's why i'm asking for maybe a legit source that can prove that i need to save the tent after placing items in it to not lose it after a server restart, independent from some bugs sometimes eating items from the tent, no matter if saved or not.

Did you see this only for this player, or are there other players with the exact same message too? Because it looks like the player is injecting the script exactly on the same position like the original one. Basically, if you just copy&paste from the public hacks, you would see something like this: "execVM "\MyScripts\ammobox.sqf";" But maybe the player was clever enough to change the path and rename it like it looks like the legit one. "execVM "\ca\ui\scripts\dedicatedServerInterface.sqf";" So, if you don't find other players with the same script message in the logs, it's most likely a hacker.

I'm guessing Mountain Dew's spawnrate is not shared with the ones like beans and water bottle.

Hey guys, i'm playing DayZ for a while now and mostly i'm playing on the EU9-server, because for me it's the most stable one, also it has 3rd-person view. But lately, i noticed that the admins perform frequently server restarts, almost every 2hr, and as a player, we don't get any reason for this frequently restarting. What i noticed is, the server time is a little odd. It is a EU-Server, and i'm living in the EU but the time difference is about 3hrs after. So basically, when it's light outside IRL, it is light in-game. But when it's dark outside IRL, it is also light in-game. I think that occurs from the server-restarts, i'm guessing the server-time gets a reset. My question is now, is this method "ok" or is it not?

I fully understand this, but in the last 2 days on EU9, it wasn't even dark at all. That's what i think is not ok at all.

I understand what you guys are saying here. I don't have a problem with the frequently server restarts, but i do have a problem with the server-time. Yesterday, i was playing with a friend on EU9 again. We played from 3pm until 8pm real life time. It was getting dark a little bit on the server, around 8pm. After a little break, we joined the server again on 9pm, just to see the server-time was 3pm again, thus it was light again on the server.

Here is a solution how to place tents with the current patch: (1.5.8.4) - Search for a spot where you want to place your tent - Open up the gear-menu - Get into duck-position ("x"-key) - Slowly sneak forwards while spamming "pitch a tent" You will see you can pitch up a tent, even on a non-flat surface. Thanks to the guy who posted this solution in another thread.
