Uncle Zed

Can someone please tell me what I need to do to ensure that the vehicles spawning on my server spawn with a full tank of gas and fully repaired?

Stay away from HFB. They believe a 24 - 48 hour response time to tickets is acceptable and it says so in their support system.

http://killinzedz.net Skype: BetterDeadThanZed Twitter: KillinZedz IP:Port: 199.217.115.199:2352 I've set up a second server using "hardcore" settings. -Chernarus -Private hive -Regular Day/Night cycle -Veteran Difficulty -50 slots -Restarts every 4 hours -Waypoints: OFF -Crosshairs: OFF -3rd Person: ON (Only because 1st person makes me dizzy) -Side chat: ON You start only with the items that are default for DayZ and nothing more! Have fun with a good old fashioned DayZ server! Our rules are simple: 1. Don't be a smacktard. We don't like smacktards. 2. Don't be a racists or overly offensive towards other players. 3. Don't say you're friendly, then proceed to kill someone. That's being a smacktard.

I'm pumped up for the Standalone release, not the Alpha.

I can't figure out why anyone is excited about playing the Alpha. Have any of you ever actually played an Alpha? They are typically quite horrendous with lots of bugs and graphical issues. Even betas can be pretty bad. You shouldn't expect to get the alpha and actually have something worth playing other than helping to debug. The only thing I care about is the final release of the standalone.

opendayz.net is a great place for mods for Dayz... http://opendayz.net/threads/excelsior-bridge-chernarus.9221/

I asked this on the DayZCC forum but no one's answered it there, so I figured I'd try here. In the Overview page, there's the option to "Spawn vehicles". I know this respawns any destroyed vehicles and I think it also respawns vehicles that haven't been touched in X number of days. Does anyone know how many days a vehicle has to be untouched to be respawned or if that's even the way it works? My host tells me it respawns all destroyed and broken vehicles, but I know that's not the case, as there are plenty of broken vehicles on my server, and they weren't respawned when I used that.

Will this be on DayzCommander?

I've got a Lingor Skaronator server with HFB. I've got the Instance table set up properly to have a custom starting loadout (Includes a hatchet, some medical items, etc) but when a new player joins the game, they don't get that loadout. The support people at HFB can't figure it out and no one at OpenDayz seems to know either, so is there anyone here running a Lingor Skaronator server and if so, do you have a working custom starting loadout?

So, I downloaded the latest filters for 1.7.7.1, but I'm finding my players being kicked for restrictions and I have to make adjustments to the files. Why do I need to make these changes? Should BE only be kicking for actual cheats?

No, I'm not doing anything wrong. I downloaded the BE files for 1.7.7.1 and overwrote the old BE files. If you want to see the BE files I have, just download the latest 1.7.7.1 filters and you'll see the same thing I have on my server.

Today I was playing Dayz and somehow it seems my hatchet turned into "full auto". I would press the fire button and it would act like a machine gun! Has anyone ever had this happen to them before?

Yeah, but people are being kicked for things like building a fire, or eating food. I can understand if a script I added requires an exception to be added to the BE files, but basic functions like building a fire and eating?

Update: My server problem was resolved: http://dayzmod.com/forum/index.php?/topic/141733-hfbservers-my-review/#entry1394908 I was looking for a Lingor (Skaronator version) host since my Chernarus server host doesn't currently have that version of Lingor. I decided to go with HFBServers. I received my server on June 24th, a week ago, and I still don't have a working server. After getting my control panel information, I looked for the install link for Lingor Skaronator, but could not find it. I only found regular Lingor, so I put in a support ticket. Two hours later, I got a reply. Quite a bit slower than my other host, but acceptable. They stated it was in the list of installable maps, but it was not, so I replied, with a screenshot of my control panel to show them that it was NOT there. Four hours later they replied they were working on it. Four hours after that, they let me know it was now available in the control panel. So, 10 hours after I ordered the server, I was finally able to install Lingor Skaronator. As soon as I started playing, I began getting kicked for BattlEye restrictions. The server had the latest 1.7.7.1 filters (Version 2.3.1 of Lingor Skaronator uses 1.7.7.1). An hour after I told them I'd been getting kicked, they replied back saying they made changes and I should test again. I got around to testing the server again and found I was still being kicked. Two hours later, they simply replied that they were able to "join the server flawlessly". This means, to me, they connected and disconnected without trying to do anything, before BE kicked them. I replied back, saying you have to play for a few minutes, maybe kill some zeds, etc, and BE will kick you. Thirty six hours later, still no reply, so I opened a new ticket in their "Emergency" ticket area. Ten hours after opening the emergency ticket, I got my first reply, telling me they updated my BE filters and that I should try again. After trying again and failing, I replied back. I got the quickest reply yet after that reply, about 30 minutes, asking for some more information. I replied back. Fifteen hours later, they replied back saying they replaced my filters again. I tested again and replied that it still wasn't working. Six hours later, they replied back that I should test it once my server came back online from their "chicago migrations". No idea what they were referring to, I replied again. It has now been 51 hours since I replied and they have not replied back. Just for your reference, I do know how to edit BE filters so every time I was kicked, I either changed a 5 to a 1 or I commented the line out of the particular txt file, or added an exception. It got so frustrating after doing this for an hour or more of connecting, waiting to be kicked, checking the log, editing the txt file, the I gave up and I'm simply waiting for them to reply. So, I would not recommend them. They obviously need to hire more tech support people.

It appears that Skaro Lingor was set up improperly, resulting in the problems my server had. They have fixed the install and all seems to be working properly now. For anyone that may read this thread in the future, trying to get opinions of HFBServers, please take note that they did eventually fix it, but in my opinion need some work in their support department. This could have all been avoided had I been given correct information about the availability of Lingor Skaro servers and if it had been set up properly.

The response it received 3 hours ago didn't address the problem. By your theory, if someone replies to my ticket with "Is it working now?", you can justify waiting 24 hours to reply again after I say "No". I used to work for a GSP, so I'm familiar with WHMCS and how it works. We would never answer tickets in this method. The actual problem with the server hasn't been addressed since June 28th, at 11:47pm.

Thanks for the info. Of course, my ticket is still sitting there, unanswered since your first reply and I still don't have a working server.

On the 29th, at 02:05, I replied to my ticket. I waited one day (24 Hours) and replied on the 30th, at 1:47am because I got no reply. I then waited another 24 hours and at 04:33 on the 1st, I replied again. That's 51 hours with no reply. Oh really? On June 24th, before I ordered, I submitted a ticket, asking if it was available. The reply was: It's funny. After I posted the original post in this thread, I told them that since they couldn't get my server working, to refund my money. They managed to reply to THAT within an hour, with the statement that they don't give refunds, even though they haven't delivered what I paid for yet and didn't make any attempt to address the issue with the server.

It's a known bug.

I tried. I put the hatchet back on my belt, switched, hit F.. nothing. :)

I tried but the video was corrupted. It actually has kick, like a machine gun.

I am using the version of Bliss Admin found here: https://github.com/R4Z0R49/BlissAdmin with a new Lingor server I have. When I click on my character details, I get a blank screen instead of the image of everything. The error log on my webserver is showing this: Any ideas?

For some reason, the first time I spawn after a server restart, I spawn in the debug plains. Once I shut the game down and connect again, I spawn fine. Any ideas what is causing this?

You're going to want to clarify the forum descriptions so this sort of major infraction doesn't happen again. So, anyone have any clue re: spawning in the debug?

I find if you try putting too many problems in one post, the replies can become disorganized and some problems get forgotten. I've requested most of those threads you linked to be closed because they're solved, or not applicable anymore. Hell, delete them if you want. As far as where I'm posting, the description doesn't specify you can't post about private hive issues here and there are plenty of posts in here about private hives, so why pick on me?
