Anyone else having problems with their Vilayer server? Mine appears to be in a constant reboot loop.

I ended up having to restore my persistent server from an 8 hour old back up to bring it back online. A complete bummer for anyone that had found any cool stuff during that time. Vilayers response was lacking as usual. They blamed it on an issue with branding, which of course was not the case. My server has the Vilayer tag and is under the 64 character requirement. Honestly, I've only used them for a couple of months and I'm losing my patience. On busy nights I can't even access the ACPlayer interface, the new logs are spotty at best, their customer service is horribly slow, and just all around I'm not impressed. I would really like to change but not sure I want to deal with the hassle. VanValdenburg, have you been happy with Fragnet? Do they allow DaRT access for public servers? I'm thinking I may switch before I waste any more time building up a persistent camp.

you have to set the pot on the ground, add your items, and then put it back on the fire. I've only been able to add meat so far. Side note, I read somewhere that you can add items to the fire to heat them up and put in your pack to keep you warm. The only result I've received so far is ruining any item I attempt this with.

see them all the time. Paper too.

Does Fragnet have an Rcon tool built in that allows you to send messages, kick, and ban? Vilayer does not, and so I use DaRT for those purposes, and then the stream file for kill logs, etc..

Totally agree PaulieZ. Now that we lowly Public hosts have access to DaRT, I just run on a separate laptop sitting by my gaming rig. Unfortunately, DaRT does not provide kill logs, and Vilayer is spotty at best with kills/chat logs. Currently I have to run DaRT for in game messaging/monitoring, kicks and bans, while also having ACPlayer up to watch kill logs, and hoping that it's actually current and working. Still, it's miles from where I was 2 days ago.

I read it, but damn...learn some self control with the fonts young lady.

If it wipes forever, what the hell is the point of persistence in the first place? As for loot, I'm seeing the same thing. Ironically, once I found a backpack after an hour of hunting, then I started finding them everywhere...

I'm curious about everyone's experience with finding loot after the patch. Seems like guns, ammo, etc, has become way more scarce. It's almost like the loot disbursement that I found playing on persistent servers. Has that been balanced out? Also, does anyone know if persistence servers will still wipe stored gear every Wednesday after the patch.

But they are running through walls. Walls, floors, stairs, etc..

I have no issues with Shadowplay and BEC turned on.

I would love to know too. This will determine on whether or not I turn persistence on for my public server. With the new patch, loot is no longer a consideration since the loot spawn seems to have the same issues that persistence has. Tons of food, little of everything else.

I was in Stary Sobor and hit by 6 zombies within minutes of logging in. Seems to be hit or miss on the zombies. I agree on the hot keys not working, and zombies walking through walls. Have plenty of video evidence of both.

So what can we do with this information? Can I block those Steam ID's from joining games I'm on, or my server altogether?

I was experiencing a lot of these problems on my public server last night, but mostly only when the player count got up in the 30's. I'm guessing it had to do with the Vilayer servers not being able to keep up with the increased demand from all the people trying to get some time in on the new patch release. When I was playing earlier in the day with a low pop count, I did not experience any of those issues.

Logs are up on ACPlayer for Vilayer now. Under services/log viewer.

Have you tried using the water purification tablets? That would be awesome if they made that a thing. More focus on survival.

Public logs just popped up on Vilayer.

Yes, they wiped all players on public servers.

Yes, that is a direct violation of the public server hosting rules.

Even pristine compasses are hokey. I've been standing on the coast staring due East and the compass will show North. I just figured it was a place filler for a later update.

I've given up on the compass. Just stick to roads and signage for the time being.

That's what was reportedly going to happen.

- Adminlogs added for private shards (logs connects and disconnects of player, tracks damage dealt from player to player, logs messages sent through chat ...). So does this mean Public shards still do not have logs? Also, I see no mention of a fix for not being able to skin and quarter hunted animals. There is a bug that hangs up when trying to skin animals sometimes and you have to cancel the action and then the option never comes back.
