Not too sure tbh... we have had similar issues before which we solved (at first) by altering the missions.pbo files. Not exactly sure how (1 of our other server ops did something with de-compiling these files and compiling them again) this was done, but it kinda worked. We had vehicles, but they didn't spawn on the normal locations and they didnt save their locations either after server restart, so basicly this was pretty shit. At some point I pm'ed 1 of the DayZ staff members who fixed it for our server instance. Did the same now hoping he can fix it again for us.. Im guessing this has something to do with the streaming from the main hive database (since we DID have vehicles after patching to 1.7.6(.1) for about 2 weeks). But my guess is as good as yours... :(

We're hosting through Gaming Deluxe as well (UK498)... hope you lot don't have the same issues we're having...

Already tried, didnt work (even after waiting for at least 12 hours). Still no vehicles.

UK498 should give you a decent ping as well..

Same issue on UK498 since last 5 days approx.

This is bs... you CAN proof some1 hacks based on evidence from the server logs. Not even too hard tbh..

lol we ban for that as well... addmagazinecargo.log ... that's a hackbox full of goodies :)

I've been playing on this server a couple of times over the last week, but I haven't found a single vehicle... are they all hoarded up some1s camp or something? I liked the crossbow shoot outs I had with a couple of players :D

UK498 (public hive) and sometimes UK417 (private)

I'll have 2 of those with ketchup please... On a serious note, there's not much you can do about hackers (on a public hive server) then go through the logs as much as possible.

Im still a huge fan of the M4(A1 or A3) CCO... Not much scoping but definately 1 of the better guns imo in DayZ. Also like the AK kobra.. and sometimes I used the M16 with Acog. Ps. If it's pitch black I wouldn't go running through big towns like cherno/elektro. Even with maxed out gamma/brightness sometimes you miss a Zed and can get trapped.

We ban both (GUID+IP).. just to be sure :) Not every1 has a dynamic ip ;)

Is this a private or public hive? Thought public hive had to be at least 40 player slots?!

Give this a read.. might be usefull although Im not sure how much a DayZ.ST server differs from a 'normal' public hive server like ours.. http://dayzmod.com/forum/index.php?/topic/120666-dayz-server-administration-guide/

Idea is cool, but might even be better to just combine it in the scope of a gun... Laserscope showing up on nvg as wel...

This might help you as well -> http://dayzmod.com/forum/index.php?/topic/120666-dayz-server-administration-guide/

At some point you know what towns/villages have too much rubble to drive on the street properly.. Just drive round them.. What I was wondering is in a post apocalyptic world who would put a washing machine in the middle of an airstrip... lol

Tbh we (me and our groupmembers) had several encounters with other clan/groups which ended up in big ass firefights (snipers vs snipers + cqc) all over the map, at the NWA, at Stary... think that's what you get when you roll out as a team. It creates a different kind of playstyle.. if you wander the map by yourself you need to be lucky to either run into friendly people or don't run into any1 at all. I'm not a bandit myself, probably why I get killed so many times... but when we're rolling out as a team most of the times we contact players first through direct chat and open fire when they dont respond or act hostile. I dont mind a bit of PvP :)

I've seen them in private hive servers, but never really found 1 on our own server.. interesting question.. I'll be investigating this when I get home from work,,.

LoL on average we ban about 10 a day... If the DayZ people want proof (after 1 of these fucktards appealed their ban) we'll be happy to supply them the proof necessary. All our bans are logged on our forum. They cheat, they get what's coming to them.

Try to contact the admins through their own website (if the have 1). Apparently that's a local server ban.

Haha because he doesn't know how to read the log files... :D Bans on suspicion arent supported by any evidence, cause there is none..

Imo thats altering game content, which I think isn't allowed.. I'd understand why script detection would class that as hackzoring..

New version of the guide will be put up asap. We learned a couple of new tricks that will be added in the guide... Bare with us, we're still learning as well :P

ye just download it: http://www.dayzcommander.com/ We're running a public hive server with default (veteran) settings.GMT -5 --> UK498
