  1. PHP? He's a nice guy... No, unfortunately I do not.
  2. I know we've had a bunch of regulars returning to the server lately, so I'd really appreciated it if you could come to my website, sign up, and post something in the forums!

    how is the playerbase now?

    I haven't come across anyone hacking yet.

    Harlem Shake Dayz

    WTF is "The Harlem Shake"?
  5. I'm trying to use the 3D editor to edit Lingor Island. When I load Arma 2 or Arma 2: AO, Lingor isn't an option. How can I edit Lingor? Also, is there a post or website that explains the 3D editor commands, such as how to rotate, elevate and angle objects that have been placed? How to remove a single object you have placed?

    'Trust no-one' - is that really good advice?

    I've come across more friendly people willing to help than I have people that shoot on sight and I haven't killed or even shot at one single player since I started playing. If I am killed by someone with the shoot on sight mentality, I'll usually just leave the server. If I can get out of sight after being shot at, and exit the server without them knowing, it's all the better, because they are left not knowing for sure where I am and it increases their paranoia. There's absolutely no point in shooting at someone simply because you see them, especially if they are moving away from you and have some shitty weapon like a pistol or hatchet while you are standing there with military grade hardware.

    dayz commander trojan

    I never used that six launcher, but I'm very happy with DayZ Commander and I haven't gotten a virus from it. I'm sure it's a false positive.

    Adding Custom Buildings

    *6* minutes after your original post, someone told you how to do it.
  9. I've modified my original post a little bit. I've renamed the community and we have a new URL at http://killinzedz.enjin.com. Thanks for reading!

    No more flies on dead bodies?

    The only times I've heard flies buzzing was around the permanent dead bodies, like the soldiers dead at an airfield, etc. I never heard flies around someone I just killed.

    New Update Makes DayZ Extremely Difficult

    I played the new version for the first time last night. Normally I've been playing on servers that start you with something small, like the hatchet. This one didn't have that, but I managed to run around and find a hatchet and pistol. During the time that I didn't have a weapon, it didn't seem to me that the zeds were any more powerful or aware. I easily lost them. As a matter of fact, I even commented on the server that it seemed easier to shake them. Simply going to the roof of a building and waiting a short period of time worked. If what people are saying is true, and the zeds are seeing you from the outskirts of a city at a ridiculous distance, then that's probably a little silly. Think about how you feel when you have the flu. Your senses are obscured, you move slowly, you feel like crap. Now, think how you'd feel if you were infected. I don't think it would heighten your senses. I haven't tested the crawl/crouch thing to see how sensitive the zeds are, as I just read about it here, and didn't experience it myself. The instant respawn of zeds that people are talking about also sounds a little silly. There probably should at least be a bit of a delay. Again, I didn't experience this because I wasn't worried about nit picking when I was playing. I was worrying about surviving. Lastly, the OP mentioned the zed's ability to hit you, and hurt you, while you are in the vehicle. Sounds like a glitch to me, like how they can hit you through walls and walk through doors. I guess that's the result of them being able to damage the vehicle. Maybe that's something that could be addressed, because I'm sure the devs didn't intend the zeds to be able to harm you inside a vehicle before they even destroy the glass. Just my $.02 worth. :)
  14. I really don't understand the thrill of killing other players. My goal is to get the gear I need to survive and explore. If I see a bandit, of course I want to kill him, but if I have nothing that is a threat to someone else, like I'm walking around with a pistol in my hands, and I'm walking the opposite way, there's no reason for someone to shoot me but some people like to be asshats and do that anyway.

    Losing all my gear after i abort.

    Actually, private hives do store your gear in a database, but they aren't connected to other servers, so like the other guys said, you can only keep your gear from server to server if you play on official servers.
  16. I am running Lingor Island on my server. Which vehicles can I add to the map when I add a spawn point? Is it the vehicles under "All Maps" only? Can I also add vehicles from Chernarus, DayZ, Celle, etc?

    DayZ Mod 1.7.5.1 Update

    If I update my client, will my server need to be updated for me to play on it?

  19. Hey everyone! Still looking for anyone that wishes to become a member of my community! Make sure you check out our website as well as our server!

    Is this normal lag?

    I haven't been playing that long, but I haven't seen this before so I'm baffled. I was just on a server where my actions were lagging. For example, I ate some food, but there was no eating sound and no message about it being eaten. About a minute later, I heard the eating sound and it said I ate. Also, I tried moving my hatchet from my toolbelt but it didn't see to do anything, until a short time later when it was moved. Is this something that happens frequently?
  21. I was going to go into the Gotcha forums today at http://forum.gotcha-antihack.com/ but Chrome stopped me and says: This is the page it takes me to for more information: http://safebrowsing....chrome&hl=en-US Is anyone else having this issue with their forums?

    Website tools

    Are there any tools for DayZ servers I can add to my website that might show information about my server, other than GameTracker? Things like a "live" map (delayed refresh of course to prevent abuse), top players, etc?

    Why do you use 3rd person?

    For me, it's the way the movement is in first person. Walking around in first person, going into buildings, just doing everything, is bobbing, disorenting, like I'm drunk, I can't move with any real orientation. I am a big FPS fan. I rarely like third person games, but this game needs to be played in third person for most tasks in my opinion.
  24. Thanks to everyone that has been playing on my server and joining my website! Please, if you've played on the server, register on my website and let me know what you think! We need more members!
