Getting annoyed by ADA Wheel Spawn Rate
Weyland Yutani (DayZ) replied to Cyral's topic in General Discussion
Seriously, change it yourself. It's your responsibility to make your server (you did say spawned on my server which deductively means you have your own server) the way you want it to be, NOT Bohemia Interactive. If you're going to complain, it has to be a valid complaint. Even if you don't have your own server, find a modded server or a server with a modded CLE. Step 1 Find your types.xml file here: DayZServer\mpmissions\dayzOffline.chernarusplus\db Step 2 Change the below entries to your liking: <type name="HatchbackWheel"> <nominal>30</nominal> <lifetime>2700</lifetime> <restock>0</restock> <min>20</min> <quantmin>-1</quantmin> <quantmax>-1</quantmax> <cost>100</cost> <flags count_in_cargo="0" count_in_hoarder="0" count_in_map="1" count_in_player="0" crafted="0" deloot="0"/> <category name="tools"/> <tag name="floor"/> <usage name="Industrial"/> </type> Increase the... <nominal>30</nominal> (max) <min>20</min> (min) Maybe try 80/60? I have 40/25 on my servers. They're not all over the place, but they're decently findable. You can also add more area's besides Industrial. Look in your types.xml for other gear that spawns at Industrial with other places so you get your formatting right. Pro-Tip: Always copy/paste so you don't fudge your shit up. The values in the types.xml are placeholder which means they're subject to change. The cars don't flip and pebbles won't ruin your day so don't worry about that. 😃 Hope this helps! -
The new ingredients got me thinking about new recipes. Naturally, we can not bake them, but we could steam them. Items Needed Cooking PotWaterGreen PepperBag of RiceTomatoTactical BaconPortable StoveGas TankKitchen KnifeCan Opener Stuffed Peppers Ingredients 1 Bag of Rice1 Tomato1 Can Tactical Bacon Directions: Assemble gas gank with the portable stove. Place cooking pot on stove, cook rice. When finished, place on side for later. Prepare the green pepper and tomato with the kitchen knife. Add rice, tomato and tactical bacon to green pepper. Add small about of water to cooking pot, bring to boil. Add stuffed peppers to pot, cook with steam until done. Viola, stuffed peppers! Now don't those look absolutely delicious?

[Recipe] Steamed Stuffed Peppers
Weyland Yutani (DayZ) replied to Weyland Yutani (DayZ)'s topic in General Discussion
Check out the south side of the road next to the Turovo check-point. I tend to see cattle there a bit. I killed Ram on the west side of Elektro the other day. A little gamey, but mutton hit the spot! -

[Recipe] Steamed Stuffed Peppers
Weyland Yutani (DayZ) replied to Weyland Yutani (DayZ)'s topic in General Discussion
I would love a cup of coffee and a consumable cigarette that actually smokes. We use Mass's Many Items, great mod. Unfortunately, the stew is freakishly big, looks out of place, and not even sure if it works/cooks. It's pretty gross looking too. I would never eat it. -
Is this GDPR again with the in-game name thing? Having to set your name with a launch parameter hurts server administration. When can we expect this in-game name business to get fixed?

Where do civilian tents spawn?
Weyland Yutani (DayZ) replied to Kyle McLain's topic in General Discussion
Download the DayZ Server files in Steam. Find the Types.xml file and open it in Notepad ++ and you'll find the location category you're looking for. Admins can change it to their taste, but most don't. Good luck. -
Can Devs FIX In-Game Name please?
Weyland Yutani (DayZ) replied to Weyland Yutani (DayZ)'s topic in General Discussion
Thanks for the suggestion, I really do appreciate that. I'll have a closer look. I used DaRT and COT (live only) which combined has everything OmegaManager could have too regarding player activity right? But it's a lot of work to cross-reference that info with the logs. We have a no-kill server so when someone gets killed and the killer logs off, someone else picks up their Survivor (x) name. Example, Survivor (3) kills Survivor (23), Survivor (3) logs off at 19:02:17, new player logs in at 19.22:13 and is now Survivor (3). The new Survivor (3) logs off at 20:18:04 and some new player is now Survivor (3) at 20:45:11. Thats a tough thing to figure out. On top of that...in the logs it'll say 19:57:22, but in RCON it's somehting like 22:57:22 or perhaps 22:49:21. Also, there is often a differential in time of a few seconds to a few minutes so it's not as easy as just adding 3 additional hours. You have to look for other hallmarks like who actually has a name that left right before or after the incident. My GSP runs on a different time than my local RCON times do which is a big problem. It's really messy and hard to parse quickly. I shouldn't have to spend 10-30 minutes to do something that should take 30 seconds. Unless this OmegaManager is a proper replacement for logs, I fear it won't work. =( -

I only know what you type. I don't presume to know what you're thinking. Maybe IF I knew you, I don't. Thus... There are a ton of prepubescent complainers out there and when you're a professional getting paid to work, why should capricious complaints from children have any effect on anything? Par for the course as they say. The goal is the product and sales. Little Timmy's purchasing power with Momma's credit card is about as real as the Loch Ness monster. Gamer demographics are 33 years-old and up. Men can handle stuff being late, cater to the money. To get hype you need to feed it with exciting content. I don't buy that line of thinking at all. If I'm out there hustling money, I don't care about kids in bibs or trolls being trolls. They're going to do it no matter what you do. Disrespectful? All I said in this OP was Anybody out there? I find your implications not only unwarranted, but also disrespectful to be perfectly honest. I've been waiting 6 months for server messages...PATIENTLY. Eugen said it was a priortity to me 6 months ago. I've spoken with Sumrak for MONTHS on a tutorial for the CeEditor...PATIENTLY. But I guess better doors is more of a priority than a robust CLE for all communities to enjoy. I don't care what you think. I care what I think. It's MY project, it's MY time, it's players in my community...I'm speaking for them and what they want. This has nothing to do with you. If you don't like it, tune into a different channel brother...simple. Let ME have my podium to speak on. How about this, click my profile and look at my entire post+thread history. Then think about what you're going to say next. My issues are valid and that is a fact. Now is the time and nothing is going to stop me. This is the time I chose to make my move and I'm going to continue to make calculated moves as I see fit. Why are you trying to be my therapist? You're just fighting to fight now and defending your thoughts because your ego doesn't know how to concede. Your way isn't my way. You're a casual player, I'm not. I got thousands of people to think about, you don't. Yea, great advice...I'll step down for a few days or weeks. Thats like literally impossible. I don't come here to be taunted by posters, I just put them on ignore and keep moving. Reply if you want, I won't be reading it because you're on the ignore list now. I'm not participating in this type of back and forth, I'm way too busy. Yes, that's exactly what I said. Console gets done after PC, thats the facts. You can ignore that all you want, it's not going to change anything. There are no communities/admins/mods on console. If you're jocking console, get in line...PC was here first. You don't deserve anything, sorry. My project has been pumping tons of money into GSP fee's and our staff has pumped a massive amount of hours into our community. We are priority, not johnny-come-lately. I'm not fighting with you and I really don't have time for this content. You got 2 posts and joined 16 hours ago. I can't converse on your level. From these words forward I'm ignoring you. Sorry, best of luck in 2019. 😃 -
Someone that's on ignore shouldn't be able to respond to a thread made by the person that put him/her/? on ignore. This is a very common feature seen on my forums. I think this is a reasonable request. Can this be done please? Thank you.

IMPROVED FORUM IGNORE FUNCTION
Weyland Yutani (DayZ) replied to Weyland Yutani (DayZ)'s topic in Troubleshooting
I have to look at the post though and he's on ignore, that nulls the ignore function...or see his post in a quote I shouldn't have to deal with that. I don't want to give someone on ignore one second out of my life because they feed on it. If someone quotes someone that's on ignore, I see it. That's a poorly written ignore function. I've been on forums since the 90's...baseline ignore functions are pretty old. Pretty sure old vBulletin had this stock...can't remember though, been a while. -

Weyland Yutani (DayZ) replied to Weyland Yutani (DayZ)'s topic in General Discussion
Please don't tell me what I do and don't do. How do you know what I do or don't do? I've read every single status report and I probably have more than double, probably triple your in-game hours. I've been idle and positive for years here, check the posts. The time is NOW to bring up major issues and I'm going to KEEP doing it. If you don't like it, hit that igrnore button and keep it moving my friend. Why do you even care? It's not like my complaints aren't valid. Stay in your lane and I'll stay in mine. Thank you. That was said on 1.25.19, that was exactly 43 days ago. The last talk of anything was 2.21.19 which was 15 days ago during the last Stable Update. Sorry if I want to know what's going on since then. Community Spotlight imo is a waste of time. It's completely misguided and targetting dull area's. Where is this picture from (again) Check out this streamer (again) Check out this youtuber community (like they need the publicity) Look at a DayZ cookie Xbox this Xbox that A bunch of screens from the Steam db Base builds (wow a bunch of walls) I prefer talk about what's on the plate in experimental, what's being worked on, etc. Leak some stuff of what's coming next, that's how it's done to keep interest. Thats how it works in the big leagues. Look at Fidov's Hidden Transport Mod. These are BI made vehicles right? https://steamcommunity.com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=1577887588 Lets talk a little more about that! Are those still coming in as is, are there changes, etc. Thats cool stuff. People want cool stuff like new vehicles. How about Jacob Mango/Not a Bananna's (w/JeromeK) BuilderItems mod: https://steamcommunity.com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=1565871491 Thats like the best mod out there...these guys are crushing the mod scene. Nobody talks about it. It's not Eden, but it's prettty dam cool. I put 400+ hours into that mod already. It's better than playing the game! Why not interview the top modder scene instead of pumping up the streamers and youtubers or former alpha tester communities?? Maybe a showcase of the hottest mods? FIDOv PACK 4: https://steamcommunity.com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=1605653648 Look at all the NEW & EXCITING content in that mod, it's amazing! Look at all the model authors in that mod, it's insane. Like how does someone get all those people on board to make one single mod? Thats a cool story.

That was cool stuff! Maybe lets have a talk about the new bear pelt thats in the files. Looks pretty tight! When I bring up bears, players get super excited! How about the plans for aircraft like how many and what styles are they thinking about? They don't have to commit and say we're getting x/y/z and worry about backlash if it doesn't happen. Maybe something like we've got plans for 3-5 aircraft. 2 helo's, maybe 2 planes, and some other bits and bobbles. Thats interesting is it not? Another topic thats super interesting: New Food Recipies. So many recipe options possible for DayZ. How hard can it be to add it into the game? I want to have a mess tin with cereal, some stuffed peppers, Jagacida (rice & beans), the list can go on and on. This is cool survival stuff. Maybe some talk about when tanning is coming back? The new leather outfits look awesome. Server admins have control over all of that stuff. The current settings are placeholder for probably a variety of reasons. Who's even playing official servers anyway? All the top servers are community based. If the communities don't alter their files or add modded content, simply find a community that does. This really isn't a pressing question imo. -
Reinstate Forced Server Messages!
Weyland Yutani (DayZ) replied to Weyland Yutani (DayZ)'s topic in Suggestions
1. Why not, y'all had it that way before? 2. Y'all are getting paid, we're not...well, I'm not. Without communtity servers your IP is dead and thats a fact. I can't get a message to players that are not directly in my community without kicking them from the server or spawning in and teleporting to them. Even the ones in my community; because of the encrypted ID, it's a pain in the ass to find out who they are. Unecessary hoops to jump through here boss. What am I to do...spawn in game on the player and tell them to turn it on? What about players from France, Brazil, China that don't speak English...how do I tell them that? It's impossible and your comparison isn't the same. 3. You said "We approve certain monetisation procedures so that server owners are able to finance their server costs. Players can still decide on which server they want to play, after all. You are not forced to pay anything extra, once you bought the game. If such a server exists, it's because of modders, server admins and players agreeing, that they want to have this environment." I don't know what that has to do with DayZ' modus operandi of hobbling admin powers based on erroneous assumptions about what killed the mod. Hicks used to complain about admins abusing power in the mod and often said that was why certain things are the way they are or would be in the future. 4. We are looking into this one, server messages should be turned on by default, with the option to switch it off. Thats my twitter conversation with Eugen 6 months ago. Why is something so simple taking so long? It feels like this has been pushed to the side. It's obviously not a priority. If it is a priority, we deserve an explanation, anything as to why it's not in yet will do...we can handle it. Thank you. 5. "Screw a certain player group" is not our way to deal with players. We care about the freedom of players to customize their experience. Maybe saying screw them was the wrong choice of words. I'm obviously frustrated. My concern is favortism and streamers have gotten preferential treatment and this preferential treatment is making administration for communities harder than it has to be...it's not right. Thank you for the detailed response. -
Everytime I do something administratively, despite putting out 5 countdown messages before I restart a server or do any kind of maintenance I get about 30 messages of why the server went down. I get yelled at because someone lost their car or some other complaint over a restart/etc. I got people blaming mods for server crashes when I restart/shutdown/etc my servers and there is no crash. It's sooo frustrating to get bombarded with complaints because of users not being able to see administrator messages. Why are devs so against admin powers? Get it through your skulls, DayZ Mod died because YOU didn't police the game and let people like Freakin' Fred (modder) sells cars for $10/each and have hit squads run the servers smashing cars. The micro-transactions killed the mod, not admin abuse. Nobody has their server messages on because y'all turned it off by default. Devs, screw the streamers, they do NOT deserve special treatment. Turn the thing back on stock already.

Lets go devs. You've hobbled admins enough with the GDPR madness. Force in-game names already!!! It's impossible to be an administrator with this Surviovor (3) crap. This is a major game-breaking issue. We had an issue the other night and it took hella long to resolve. I'm not built for this. I need names in my logs not Survivor (3) (id=kSbdfjrwlbgfjo.ADXvch;OADOUjhgkn;aosifdhgpajsdfofh;osfhgdfn aPOVfuyabdlCTVHOFGSC0EaDZCRUl9uFCHZjsfmlunvhjcgjfMSCIzuvghfADOIcvghCAEUXSUcfjvbnFS<UACYhrfjVWSJDCFHnvwiufsdfhVNudCSRHfSIFCHJFPNSULidFSIUAOHDFMXPQJRX<Fpqiadun) -
This is the tool I've been dying to use the most. When is this tool going to be functioning for use, preferably with a tutorial? I saw a dev update on doors, I feel like this is much more important for world builders that doors. Any updates? If no, what's the reason this is being held up?

Night Time is unfairly darker for some players vs others
Weyland Yutani (DayZ) replied to Cyral's topic in General Discussion
Thanks for the screen and the reply. So I grabbed the latest version and tested on a test server. I'm really digging it. Got the Increased Lumens with it. I like the Midnight Sun settings for after April 7th. I think I'm settled on April 16th. -
I find the yellow cup comes a little too fast and looking to increase it a smidge. I'm having a hard time finding where to do that. I'm in scripts.pbo>3_Game>PlayerConstants.c and it looks like the area, but no such luck. Can someone assist please? Thanks!
