MarKeR (DayZ)

Go back to the previous patch, will work then mate! 94786 I think it is!

Installed on DE4 with patch version 94876.. Server filled up instantly after reboot, for the first time in around a week, all players were in server anf in game within a minute or so after reboot! So no connections problems after restart! A few minutes wait after respawning, but nothing like the problems the last few days! In game, the fps is very stable, until there must have been at least 20 or 30 dead survivors around cherno, brough my FPS down to around 25 to 30, all very high settings, no PP or HDR! Restarted server to clean up after a few hours, back to 40 - 50 fps in cherno! In game, zeds are still quite dumb to aggro in certain cases, ie I could run into there face and they wouldn't react, but wobetide me if I even crawled across a path of one 150mtrs away, they would run at me like a man possessed, which in all honesty i prefer! They also are rooted to the spot in a lot of areas, but they might eventually go and check a dead bodies out! Ammo still not saving after repawning into game, I also had a report of vehicles not saving, waiting for a definite word back on that one! Usual small bugs like, not being able to gut animals, flies still around after hiding bodies! BTW, the bodies would not disappear at all, waited 30 minutes and the dead around me were still there! Loot seemed to be spawning properly, still no bear trap :( but everything else was in abundance, as usual more watches, maps and alice packs than the server needed for everyone :) All in all so far running fantastically well with no crashes, will do a server monitor check tomorrow and see how it is running! Cheers

Dont think it is mate! If you check out the following few lines you will see that weaponcargo is also there, and it is proceeded by the BIS command! Christ, I even have it against my name around 6 times in a few logs I checked! So I wouldnt be going banning anyone having that against their name!

Anyone else have the hunting knife graphic on theground, but in actuality it is a remington with flashlight?

Are we all spawning back at the coast after rejoining everytime!! Dced in cherno, respawn in coast, dc at Balota respawn at the coast!

DE4 Updated to 1.7.2 I was able to join no problem withitn 10 seconds.. Restarted server due to loads not being able to connect, now stuck at loading!

Stalker I have seen this numerous times within my logs. Sometimes it is as little as two or three, other times as much as ten or twelve.. I am sure I saw something like this against my own name.. Which made me scour the whole logs looking for something that would generate scripts against other users.. I am sure I was told it was legitimate.

So you hid the vehicles off the map? If so that's an exploit that would earn you a ban on most servers... If I as an admin can play and hide vehicles within the constraints of the map, then so can everyone who joins my server! Which isn't fr10 before you ask..

Playing on DE4 with a good few others, a few of us on TS etc... Suddenly right over the blood icon, a compass appeared, exact same colour as the normal dayz icons!! The compass went after a minute or two, didn't even think to get a screencap!! Anyone else seen or know of this? Hacker, or a little insight into another hud icon?

Hey guys.. Posted in the general server forum by accident yesterday, should have been in here.. Can someone clarify if the script below is part of a hack, only two instances of it over two days of log files.. Thanks 17.06.2012 10:38:04: xxx (81.206.93.000:57501) 8cb5c92ee3ae4b9351b965a979000000 - #40 private ["_dummy"]; _dummy = [_this,"players"] execVM "\ca\ui\scripts\dedicatedServerInterface.sqf"; thanks

Surely having cooked or uncooked meat in your back pack would generate a smell of sorts.. Canned food, doesn't ! So with that in mind, I suggest that if someone is carrying any of the slaughtered meat in the back pack then the zeds should react to it the same way they react to a dead survivor, they investigate where the smell is coming from and start making their way there.. It would make it so much harder to not agro the zeds if you are crawling through town, forcing you to either empty the back pack, eat it all or go and set up a camp to store your meat in..

Just got into my server!! DE4 is back up at least!! Anyone else?

The UH1 has M240 guns, someone correct me please if I am wrong, is a darkish green in colour! So sounds liek your one was hacked in!!

Try de4 and post your results here mate.. Thanks

Always check the logs.. Problem is my logs are generated after a restart, so it could be as far as 5 or 6 hours, depending on how the server is running!! Usually end up with a notepad full of times to try and double check against server logs.. Never a name as we are running veteran with everything off! Ah well.. Suppose the life of a server admin is never a dull one!! Another few hours of checking logs :) Would be nice to have them back somehow! Thanks for the replies guys!

Can someone check one of my script logs for me please.. Got some really strange entries on it... Thought my death was a bit suspect, then my partner was coming to get my gear and he was carpert bombed at the north of the map!! Let me know please!

Replied mate!

Any chance of an update on what servers have helis enabled on them? Seems to be a bit of a lucky guess these days! I understand the reasons why they were removed in the first place! Maybe post a list of servers or email server host to ley them advertise the fact they have helis in!! Thanks

iirc locking a server without express permission from the devs is a blacklistable offense. You can lock servers in some instances, which would not effect filing the server up.. For example, when the server first reboots, I have been known to flood control manually to let players in quicker.. Also BEC has an auto flood control!! There have been lots of instances where I have locked the server when full to stop the idiots continually spamming the server trying to join! Although that really doesn't need done these days, on the odd occasion amybe!! These are both very similiar to locking and letting enough space for a few donators to join!

Guys... Maybe a simpler way to do it in the mean time, would be to lock the server for 5 or 10 minutes.. Let players leave, then unlock and let your clan members join then... I'm sure you would use team speak etc... Easy to coordinate... No one gets hurt..

Nope....it's normal, been lads of threads recently about this script..

Hey guys Looking to get a host to run a 36 man server, they are asking if you need access to the server to set it up, or can the files be uploaded via ftp? Thanks

Mate.. Come on over to de4 ,set fr UTC-8. Daylight until around 2am, daybreak is around 1pm... Also my host kocheffel is a great host, fully managed if you want, cheap and never had a problem at all.. Dao.nu or contact him via email at admin@dao.nu...

It's 100% positive it's not a hack... As I am sure i found it against my name in the strips.log from my server...or something very very similar to it. Infact, I am sure there were close to 40 or 50 instances in my script logs.. Will check in the morning and confirm...

Restart again, usually works the second time!! Unless you have parked them off map :)
