You need to enable DayZ in the "Expansions" menu in-game. Basically your game isnt seeing the mod as enabled. There is a shortcut, but I can't recall how to do it with the steam version. Someone will be able to help you :)

NY1 Still Down - Several Hours Since Shutdown

RIDICULOUS, let us help you add servers!
Difecti replied to Magic8Ball (DayZ)'s topic in Mod Servers & Private Hives
My apologies for my previous post in this thread. I seem to have posted it in the wrong one, so please disregard it. -
Griff, I started playing the Acorn Electron. My first game was Repton lol, back in 1988. Scripts are for lazy people.

Difecti replied to Magic8Ball (DayZ)'s topic in Mod Servers & Private Hives
They won't release this as it will require releasing the specific exe's that keep the servers connected to the database. It'd prove to much of a security risk to the database. I cant seen the devs releasing those to be honest, hence the reason it requires DayZ devs setup. -
Server host/donation thread tips: Please read
Difecti replied to oktyabr's topic in Mod Servers & Private Hives
My apologies, Oktyabr. Wouldnt it be easier to have them all condensed to one thread though? Would save the load on the server/database, that is already slow as it is. Maybe make this a sticky? -
Server Problems/Hosting your own ?
Difecti replied to TAZ6804's topic in DayZ Mod General Discussion
You'd need a connection to the main database. Without the correct files, this is not possible. You'd be stuck on the "waiting for server response" screen as there is no connection to the DB. I doubt the DayZ dev's would release them to the public though. -
If thats the case Alienfreak, report it.

Server host/donation thread tips: Please read
Difecti replied to oktyabr's topic in Mod Servers & Private Hives
Server Name: EU5 Slots: 40 Difficulty: Regular, considering a change to veteran. Version: 1.60 (Not Beta patched) Location: UK Time Zone: Should be BST. Teamspeak 3: 193.200.158.180 Rules: Typical DayZ rules apply. No kicking for admins or members, No in-game VOIP. Contact: Myself on here, or Steam: LoftyBTB Donations welcome, please ask for information. Donations will be matched 1:1. Any further info required, don't hesitate to ask. -
Darkwolf, are you allowed to add your own scripts? Has permission been sought from the DayZ dev's to modify their files to add this script? As with any mod, I'm sure it would be in the best of respect to ask if you can do these things, but they may not allow you since the mod is in such an early stage. Rocket has stated in a previous thread regarding Legion that he is against kicking for clan-members. While some of the posts on this thread show that Legion may be willing to try and resolve the issues, others made by members of your clan do not show a change in stance. One of your members states that you will only be kicking for Admins now, yet you have changed that into you will be kicking for members/donators when you can add the script. Also, in another thread, Chaos stated that Legion will no longer be kicking for members. You need to come up with something and stick to it, instead of changing it from one day to the next.

There are rules? I have still to see a post on rules for DayZ. And PvP is allowed. Its part of the game.

Windows OS (only tested on Windows Server 2008) 4GB RAM Dual Core CPU (Quad recommended) 10Mbps down, 5Mbps up (considered a minimum for ~25 players, can spike well above) Able to run the custom HIVE console EXE application RDP for DayZ staff so updates can be self applied. Alpha is a very rough time, 10 updates van be released in an hour MySQL (currently not used, but in Beta/Release each server will run its own DB) Also need a decent bandwidth allowance as a 40 slot server can use around 2TB of data a month.
-
Yeah, it kinda sucks that when we are able to play, most of the servers are full. There are 6 of us that tend to play together but we wait until there's a free slot on our server instead of kicking someone.

EU5 is UK based. If you can't get on UK1, Jump on there. It tends to be easier to get on the UK/EU servers before 3pm.

1.5.5 Character saves not working
Difecti replied to Felix (DayZ)'s topic in DayZ Mod General Discussion
Eu5 has been having issues with Hive losing connection to the database. Could be the same issue there too. -
I believe it has to be running on Windows due to the way Hive is coded and/or connects to the main database. Other people that have offered to run it on a Linux box have been told it is not possible due to this reason. Basically the Hive and HiveAuth programs used to sync the servers and database is not compatible with Linux.
-
Whats the bandwidth usage limit, if any? This mod can easily clear 1.5 - 2TB a month on a single 40 slot server.
-
Sorry, I mis-read my bandwidth monitor. Yesterday, we used 56.7GB. If a server uses that per day, it still only works out at about 1.5TB a month. I'm hosting EU5, so I know what my server gets through. Yours may be different. Just giving info from my side :)
-
A single 40 slot server transfers about 1.2TB of data a month (approx 260GB a week). Personally, I would even consider hosting it from home, even with an unlimited bandwidth connection.

Myself and Scottd564 have donated a server, based in UK for the use of the Day Z community and the Day Z Devs. Since Day Z was put on the server a week a go, we have been monitoring how it runs, and it seems to be running smoothly. We donated this server for the use of the whole Day Z community, and would like to take this opportunity to see if any of you would like to donate towards the upkeep. We have the 40 slot Day Z server running and a 47 slot Teamspeak 3 server running (7 slots reserved on Teamspeak). If you would like the details to the Teamspeak 3 server, please ask. If you would like to donate, please visit the following link: GroupPay for ClanPlanet, then at the bottom, select the link saying "billing website here". It'll take you directly to the GroupPay page. Under amount, enter the value of your donation. Where it states "Voucher Recipients Email Address", please enter "[email protected]" This will ensure your donation has gone straight to the account, cutting out the middle man, so you know where your donation has gone. You are not signing up to buy anything and you are not signing up to make regular donations. You are able to donate as little or as much as you wish, as a one off donation, unless you wish to donate again.

NEW! EU Server soon to start - donate for guaranteed reserved slot!
Difecti replied to obikai's topic in Mod Servers & Private Hives
Legion don't do that anymore, and Rocket has stated he is against kicking for members and donators. -
when theres over 1000 zeds on a server, shit gets edgy
-
A lot of people have already boycotted the legion servers due to reasons like this or similar to this. They stated that they have changed the way they run their servers, but this does not seem to be the case. There have been a lot of complaints regarding Legion on the forums in the last 2 days alone. One thread was deleted by DayZ staff at Legions request following 7 pages of complaints and a couple of their members generally being asshats.

You don't need CBA to run Day Z. It can be played without.
