An important message to server admins in DayZMod / Origins / etc.
creature replied to gummy52's topic in Mod Servers & Private Hives
Unfortunately, as a server admin, we can't just take a players word that another is cheating. If we start banning players because another called hacker, there would be no players by now due to MANY false accusations. If we use the tools that would allow us to see evidence of such, we are called bad admin and will soon be accused of using said tools to our advantage. Moral of the story? Damned if you do and damned if you don't. -
That's awefully harsh considering you were playing a free mod for another game. I think the mod is one hell of an accomplishment considering the limitations of Arma II. Transforming a military sim (with no melee system) into a zombie survival game as popular as this? I'd say it's pretty damn good. You should give a few of the other maps or mods a try before you pass final judgement.

[SA] UVB-76 and other mysterious radio stations.
creature replied to Abu Bakr's topic in DayZ Mod Suggestions
Yes! One of the number stations could repeat an easily decyphered code that translates to "Rocket2Guns was killed by: Zombie with weapon "leap frog" from a distance of 2m". -
It can take a few minutes to load into a server for the 1st time. The screen can go back to black a few times and seem frozen. Give it a couple minutes and then try a different server. The more scripts a server is running the longer it will take to get in the game.

Obviously, a horde would be wondering who wrote the book of love?

I both support and endorse this post.

Kicked by admin ? Or script error 223 ?
creature replied to Sixsillysins's topic in DayZ Mod General Discussion
My guess, it was a script restriction and battleye kicked you. If it was admin, you would have probably been kicked again after the "No admin abuse huh?" bit. -
I'm holding out for Hatchet_TWS. Anything else would be, uncivilized.

Maybe, he got a job in a large department store selling a men's cologne named Hombre.

Do You Regret Anything You Have Done In DayZ?
creature replied to Devon206 (DayZ)'s topic in DayZ Mod General Discussion
Giving a friend the keys to my server. That counts right? -
I support and endorse the post above.

OK. So, no different than the public hive where anyone can host a server. I think your reading too much into the small amount of info that's been given so far And if you have a problem with admin while playing, play on servers that aren't run by kid clans. Pretty simple concept.

Great comments in this thread. I'd like to add that a failing hard disk can cause unexpected shutdowns as well. Usually random shutdowns occurring more often until the PC won't boot up.

Taviana-Anywhere to make a good base?
creature replied to DayzFanatic's topic in DayZ Mod General Discussion
1. Big island, east coast, a little past half way up there's a beach. Hardly ever visited. 2. Smaller island, west coast up to the left of the racetrack. No one ever goes there. 3. Sabina (if it's a lower pop server) there are apartment buildings that form city blocks with one entrance that can be easily blocked with a bus. No z's spawn in there. -
My Computer should be able to run it, but has a hard time.
creature replied to Lokogar420's topic in DayZ Mod Troubleshooting
The problem with the system requirements is that they're from what, 2009? The mod would run sweet on your machine if you were running XP still. Most don't take that into consideration. -
I'd have to assume it will definately be released on a day. In fact I've heard many rumors of this so I believe it to be thruth.
-
You might want to actually mention what map/mod your running or some other information to let people know WHY they might want to play on your server.

I applaud this effort. I don't see the infection or high risk as the real problem. It's the imminent death that usually follows. A way to stay alive yet still in pretty bad shape until a real treatment/antibiotics can be obtained would be a major improvemet as long is it was semi easy to find.

Custom Buildings on Taviana, something's missing from editor.
creature replied to Sh1zn3t's topic in Mod Servers & Private Hives
It's easy enough to place temporary buildings where you want a barracks, etc then change the class name in the biedi file. Then you can reload editor and adjust their placement. -
Took me forever to get running yesterday. What finally worked for me was switching to Epoch, then rebooting to chernarus. Just switching to the default pbo's would make it hang on a progress bar indefinately.

What you guys think about the new update?
creature replied to grimsonfart's topic in DayZ Mod General Discussion
This patch would be awesome if I always had 5+ hours to play. I'll most likely switch my server back to Tavi or epoch tonight. Roughly a 90% chance of death due to infection is a bit much. That's my biggest gripe. It's a challenge for sure but it's not fun after the third infection. I also noticed players seemed to respawn in the same place every time. -
What issues are server owners having with 1.7.7?
creature replied to Uncle Zed's topic in Mod Servers & Private Hives
I tested for 4 hours this evening and haven't encountered anything server related. Only one script restriction so far as well. I don't do custom loadouts but there does appear to be some changes to the DB. -
Keep in mind that a good number of those new pretty games will be lacking content and force you to do the same thing as everyone else who plays them. "This game looks sweet and it only took me 12 hours to beat." Not my idea of a good game. If I get half the play time in the SA as I have with the mod, I'll be over joyed.

Just started a new sever guys, With silent warrior anti hacks :)
creature replied to whizzle420's topic in Mod Servers & Private Hives
I for see future teleporting bans due to lag in TSW. That program has NOT caught a legit hacker on my server yet. The ability to check tents for hacked in weapons however has caused a few.
