You need to update your scripts.txt to the new format

Finally some good proof against these guys. I hope this is enough to get them banned from DayZ and their server shut down, these guys are just pathetic for trying to cover this up for so long.

Its hacked, no jets spawn in DayZ currently.

No you cannot. In order for battleeye to trigger a global ban, you must use software that inject into memory or alter memory in order to spawn items or trigger scripts on the server. By entering a "spawned" vehicle, you run absolutely no scripts, and you alter no game memory whatsoever. It is NOT a violation to use something that was spawned. It is a violation to spawn it however.

You werent global banned for entering a jet. I am not usually straight forward and harsh, but you ran some kind of script that was in violation.

You should gain 10-20 fps in the cities, right now its hard to really say because object cleanup is bugged, so the framerate depends on how many people are dead in the city, how many zombies are frozen, how long the server has been running etc.

I wouldnt go lower then 150000 if you want to see people in buildings 80-150 meters away, without having to zoom. Going lower then 100000 and you wont be able to see into buildings that are 80-100 meters away even while zooming.

Rocket stated it several times, Id gladly record a video of me changing the view distance and not having any difference. EDIT: Sorry, i meant about 1000. Not 500

Its up to you whether you want to do what needs to be done to fix it, im just trying to help. In 99% of the cases, NAT issues are on the user and not the host. Just about all servers run in in vms or vps so they can allow several people to rent from the same box, the complete box runs in dmz which opens all ports needed unless specifically told not to. EDIT: I cant find a US355 server in the list

The message was from the old builds, where you could not repick gender. Now, you can repick gender everytime you respawn. Whenever you die, just click "abort" then "continue" to reload into the game, the box will appear and you can freely pick whether you want to be a female or a male.

The mod and DayZ servers locks the view distance to 500, so it doesnt matter that you have 10k in options, it has no effect. Yes, i completely agree. I also lowered a whole ton of options to get better framerate. But for me, its important that i am able to see and shoot back at people that are within a reasonable distance, when they are inside buildings. For some this might matter aswell, which is why i am warning people that less then 150000 will make that very difficult.

I would recommend you google NAT test and take one just to make sure, if it proves positive, call your isp and ask them if there has been any NAT issues reported lately. If it all turns out in your favor, i am sorry to say, the issue must be on the server host and not you.

Not with 150000. I did extensive testing with this when i was doing config tweaks, and i used the high tower in cherno(in the middle of the factory area) as a point of testing, and i found that below 150000 i was not able to look into the windows and intrances of the apartments that is straight south if the tower(the ones at the belltower) and those were 100-150 meters away EDIT: Mind you that yes, you can see all the buildings. But they are low resolution, like i said in my first post, anything below 150000 will remove the ability to see what is happening INSIDE the buildings if they have windows or doorways, so long the building is more then 100 meters away

Hmm.. While its very unprofessional to have these issues as a host and network provider, i am bound to believe the nat issue is happening in the datacenter the server is hosted on. Are other people on the server? Nat can be country specific, so thats still not a very accurate way of telling, but it can give you an idea.

Players will always render at the same distance no matter the setting. This setting only alters object render distance, such as buildings, trees, grass etc. I dont recommend anything lower then 150000, if you go lower then this, you wont be able to look into intrances/windows of buildings that are 100-200 meters away from you, unless you use the zoom function.

Its tough to say since the issue you describe seems to be random. I find it hard to believe that its an issue on the servers side, as the whole network should be running in DMZ. I would recommend that you check your router settings and make sure that the ports for the game are open, or that upnp is enabled. If it still gives you the error with upnp enabled, try and manually forward the ports required by ArmA, to rule out that it is an issue with your router. If it still gives the error, it must be a problem with the specific server you are attempting to connect to.

Its not per say "hacking" thats just the general term people use this days to explain exploitation by injecting and altering memory space. Every hack alters memory and injects differently, the reason battleye cannot ban "everyone" is because it doesnt search "everywhere" Thats like saying why criminals are able to commit murders, i mean, the cops should just catch them before they do it right? Its not possible, Battleye needs to be patches to search specific memory areas in order to 100% confirm that a program is injection here when it isnt. When they find one, they do a software detection and everyone injecting ends up banned. Rinse and repeat for another 200 years

All your assumptsions are wrong. A player cannot access any console, a player has no access to run any scripts. Thats why you need to bypass battleye and the prevention methods put in place for in order to stop people to run scripts, this is why its a "hack". It is impossible to stop hacking, theres no way to prevent it. All you can do is minimize it. I really urge you to stop talking about things you dont know, your statement in regards to battleye not working is as wrong as it can be. Battleyee has done software detection for over a dozen public hacks the past few months, thats more then many other anti cheat systems out there.

I think its time you get educated. The MOD(HINT NOT GAME) is not supposed to be fixed at this point, its supposed to be broken.

Im thinking it could be a config issue on the OPs side, but i am not familar with the kind of access HFB provides.

These are all things that will get solved later in the development stage, but isnt likely to happen so long the game is a mod. A mod is limited in many ways. In this case, server hopping becomes an issue due to how the current system works, and there really arent any way to solve this without moving to a tranquility server, this cant happen with ArmA. Once the game moves to an alpha stage on its on platform, these things will most likely get fixed. But as long as its a mod, server hopping is likely not gonna get fixed. New items can obviously be added, and Rocket also talked about instanced bases which adds a new element to the end-game, giving that more rare items are added, the whole surviving aspect changes as you raid other clans bases in order to find better loot at stock up. Point is, all these advanced features are not likely to happen on a modbase, what we play is literally 5% of what it would be capable of on its own platform, hopefully the future brings DayZ on its own platform.

What kind of access do you have to your servers at HFB?

Without knowing the password, its hard to say if its actually difficult to bruteforce. Now i am not suggesting you should give it out lol, letters and symbols standing in singularity like eqs#€ae can in some circumstances be easy in terms of time to bruteforce, where as several words along can take longer. Let me point out, that this is not always the case. In regards to the scripts, no, theres no way the server was locked due to a script being run by a hacker. If the server indeed was locked, it was done through the control panel of your host. I highly suggest you find a host that allows ftp access or rdp to the vps its running on, in ArmA 2, a simple control panel just doesnt provide you with the tools you need to keep it safe, and keep track of whats going on.

Another video of some shenanigans in electro couple of days ago. Couple of minutes before this video, me and a friend were running down the street underneath the hospital going for the grocery store, when my friend was shot in the back. I ran around the church and back toward the hospital to scout for whoever killed him, a couple of seconds before the video starts, i spotted him on the hospital roof, unfortunatly, you cant hit that which dont reveal itself! So... This is what happened
