Gaming Deluxe hadn't installed BE fully, there was an error they had to fix their end. Once done all I had to do was make sure the numbers were sequential and all was good :)

Cheers for the replies I will drop it on the floor then restart the server to get rid of it.

Hello, Killed someone and they had an ammo clip full of M4 ammo labeled 6.67892e+008/60 The ammo seems hacked. When used it is unlimited and you do not need to reload. I have held onto it in case there is someone that it can be handed to so it can be investigated and fixed. If this is not possible I can dump it in a bush somewhere. Here is a screenshot, as you can see they had more in their ammo box.

I've got it working now, cheers for help :)

Hmmm, no server messages yet

Ok, I have changed it to his and will try it now <?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8" standalone="yes" ?><!--Web Doc : http://www.ibattle.org/install-and-configure/setting-up-the-scheduler/Setup:

Lol, Job id 0 was already there, I just edited the default config with my own times and messages. Then because the server always resets to 10AM I chose to set the restart time simply 2 hours after (hence the 020000 for the restart time). This should mean after the server has run for 2 hours the job activates (hhmmss). The problem is, no server messages are happening and neither is the restart :( Missing out number 4 gives space for 1 more message without having to change all the ids, plus, if I am right I could give them any id, it doesnt need to be sequential so missing number 4 shouldn't make a difference.

Here it is: <?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8" standalone="yes" ?><!--Web Doc : http://www.ibattle.org/install-and-configure/setting-up-the-scheduler/Setup: Restarts every 2 hours with 5 and 1 minute warnings--><Scheduler> <!-- Repeating messages every 10 minutes --> <job id="0"> <time>001000</time> <delay>000000</delay> <day>1,2,3,4,5,6,7</day> <loop>1</loop> <cmd>say -1 Welcome to the [SoE] DayZ server</cmd> <cmdtype>0</cmdtype> </job> <job id="1"> <time>001000</time> <delay>000200</delay> <day>1,2,3,4,5,6,7</day> <loop>1</loop> <cmd>say -1 Wearing pants will get you killed</cmd> <cmdtype>0</cmdtype> </job> <job id="2"> <time>001000</time> <delay>000400</delay> <day>1,2,3,4,5,6,7</day> <loop>1</loop> <cmd>say -1 This server restarts every 2 hours</cmd> <cmdtype>0</cmdtype> </job> <job id="3"> <time>001000</time> <delay>000600</delay> <day>1,2,3,4,5,6,7</day> <loop>1</loop> <cmd>say -1 Don't forget to add us to your favourites</cmd> <cmdtype>0</cmdtype> </job> <!-- End repeat messages --> <!-- 12:00 restart --> <job id="5"> <time>015500</time> <delay>000000</delay> <day>1,2,3,4,5,6,7</day> <loop>0</loop> <cmd>say -1 This server will restart in 5 minutes</cmd> <cmdtype>0</cmdtype> </job> <job id="6"> <time>015900</time> <delay>000000</delay> <day>1,2,3,4,5,6,7</day> <loop>0</loop> <cmd>say -1 This server will restart in 1 minute</cmd> <cmdtype>0</cmdtype> </job> <job id="7"> <time>020000</time> <delay>000000</delay> <day>1,2,3,4,5,6,7</day> <loop>0</loop> <cmd>#shutdown</cmd> <cmdtype>0</cmdtype> </job> <!-- End 12:00 restart --></Scheduler>The way I see it this should put a server message out every 10 mins with different message after a small delay. This should also make the server restart every 2 hours with a message 5 mins before. However, none of this happens. Any help would be great.

I'm just looking forward to killing someone by throwing a tin of beans at their head. Or maybe dropping an axe on someone from the top of the flats :)

So instead of simply finding the cause of the crashing and sorting it out, you feel the devs should remove something that makes the game better for hundreds of thousands of people?

I use a sniper rifle and my friends either use SKS or M4s. My friend(s) would have flanked them while I sit about 200m away with the sniper, then we would all open fire at the same time, they'd be dead before they knew what was going on

I was in the hospital in Elektro when someone logged in on the roof. I was a bambi, a quick spade to the head had them unconscious before they had even moved and within 10 seconds I was fully geared. I left them the spade as a sign of thanks :)

Thanks for the replies We will likely be having it in the UK as that is where the majority of clan members live. Sounds to me like Gaming Deluxe is the way to go. I am still very interested in what members and server admins have to say though, so please keep replies coming in!!

Looking into it, the servers we currently play on with the least lag are Gaming Deluxe ones. I like the idea that you can have the custom restart xml, server messages etc. Do the others offer this as standard too? Also, is adjusting the time on restart something they all offer? At the moment I'd want it daytime only, but in the future when loot and zombies respawn without restarting, like the mod, it would be nice to have it on a cycle that allows for night play. Also, assigning sub-admins that have limited 'powers' but are able to look after the server when needed would be a nice option.

Hello, I am looking to rent a DayZ server for my clan, everyone will be chipping in so it's important I find a good company to go with. So far i have looked into: Game Servers Gaming Deluxe Vilayer Multiplay I used to run a DayZ Mod server with Vilayer and found them decent so am tempted to go back to them. However previously my clan has had servers with Multiplay and still use them for Teamspeak so have suggested I look into them also. I do find when playing the game, sometimes I log into a server with good ping and find it laggy, cant equip weapons or open doors etc, but swapping servers fixes this. I really dont want to sign up for a server that has this lag. I know it can happen occasionally, but there have been servers where it is constant. Does anyone have experience with the above companies? What are peoples thoughts/opinions on the best company to go with? Cheers.
