Anyone have a basic adapted version they could share?

Yeah, like even if you aren't a fan of the single player/coop campaign stuff the freaking Warzone gametype for multiplayer is a freaking blast, played it with my clan yesterday when I hadn't updated our DayZ server yet and it was awesome.

You could always try to get donations from your regulars, I have donation links on my site for my server. No luck so far except from a personal friend that plays on the server but might as well try if you are at all interested in keeping the server up. Just set up a paypal/google merchant/amazon payments account and set up a donation thread on here and direct people to it through your MOTD / in-game global messages.

Almost all hosting companies that sell game servers are resellers, shit almost all hosting companies out there hosting to the general everyday joe are resellers. There are big companies that own huge datacenters and then they resell to these hosting companies online. It's the fucking norm. Sometimes it's a mix of reselling and actually hosting some of your own servers too, like you might have your own datacenter in say Chicago but then you also offer servers through reselling in LA, Texas, NY, etc... Also HFB is about 40% cheaper than the other hosts so I am fine with having the updates roll out a little slower when I am saving $25-30 per month.

Not sure. Here is the admin for the server http://dayzmod.com/f...er/44096-snagz/ But he doesn't look active on the forums... so dunno. Edit: http://arma2.swec.se/server/data/259685 Also keep an eye on there and see if it comes up.

Where is Rocket making all this money? So far it has seemed like he is doing this all for fun, he hasn't really made any money off of it. If anything he has spent money on maintaining, upgrading, and hosting the hive server. Like I was pretty pissed about the changes but every problem I have had has been rectified so far.

If they aren't a super new script kiddie they are using the new bullshit that bypasses battleye and shows nothing in the logs.

Just tested it, works via FTP. Download Filezilla or some other FTP program.

Twitter or through their live support on the mainpage(It's offline right now but on most of the day). Or message hungoverfurball on here. He was just online posting a thread.

I thought that having the time zone was allowed in the new naming convention but don't see it in the options anywhere, is this not allowed anymore. Honestly I am ok with this now as long as I still have access to the difficulty config, scripts.txt, scripts.log, and bans.txt. I just noticed that I can still rename the scripts.log through ftp but I can't do it through the file manager on the site, or replace the scripts.txt if I need to update it. Can this be changed? It's not a big deal was just wanting it for if I am not at my computer so I could log in and do stuff from my phone easily. Otherwise as long as I still have access to those files in FTP I am fine. Edit: Also is having NT:0 in the difficulty stuff not allowed is it just the 3DP and CH? Because having/not having nametags is a big selling point for people. Edit2: Also if the timezone is pulled from my like my services page if you add time zone options on the name, it will be wrong anyways. The servers UTC/GMT+5, tried to change it twice to -4 and then -8 and neither times it worked :/

@ZedsDeadBaby I hear all these people scream admin abuse about getting kicked yet it seems like it is a small minority, it's just very vocal people that come on the forums when it happens. Before I rented my own server I played on probably 25-30 random servers and was only ever kicked once, it was a clan server, I believe it was called [broken] Clan or something similar. But that was the only time it ever happened. I think sure it is a problem on a few select servers but if those servers are reported and blacklisted then problem solved.

http://www.gametrack...1.102.153:2302/ Down at the moment but keep an eye on that page, since it tracks by IP it will show it even if the name has changed. They may be down for an update depending on how long it's been, I took my server down for about 10 minutes earlier to get updated to the new beta.

Not necessarily, we have had a couple times where every user include myself the admin and clan members were kicked for spawn scripts for weapons/vehicles. A hacker came in and tried to spawn them on every player in the server, resulting in everyone being kicked.

I will probably join in with mine as well.

It's not just a few renegade, if they want to hamper us from protecting our server we are going to stop paying to host servers for the community, and people will be on here bitching about every server being full, I am paying out of my pocket for the server, I haven't had any luck getting donations because the game doesn't have reserved slots which is the main way to get money for server hosting. I generally don't ban for DCing and stuff like that unless I am 100% sure, and even then it's just a day or two temp ban. But I do permaban hackers I catch, and even that is against the rules and can get you blacklisted. They expect you to tempban hackers and submit a ticket that takes them weeks to respond to and possibly not even have the player banned from DayZ because you can't even offer logs as proof any more because they bypass Battleye. Banned a hacker this morning, had video proof so they will be banned but they don't show up in the scripts log at all. Edit: Honestly I am pretty fucking pissed and frustrated right now with Battleye, Bohemia, and DayZ. Hackers have run rampant the last 2-3 days and it's fucking ruining the game. I have people coming in 2, 3, sometimes 4 times per day teleporting to every player and killing them, teleporting to everyones tents/vehicles and satchel charging them, teleporting in invincible and spawning/stealing cars and running you over, spawning helicopters, nuking the server... none of it shows up in the logs. The damn scripts.txt doesn't stop them because they bypass battleye... it's fucking annoying. I am regretting paying in advance for the next month of hosting, I would probably just shut down the server if I hadn't.

Player was Carly GUID: 5bb0709a281f8c2b1624b2882ce96fb9 In the log there is nothing out the ordinary with them so they are bypassing battleye it seems. Already submitted a support ticket, just posting so other admins can ban them.

One time purchase. Ported to the Arma 3 engine, either included with the game, as a DLC for a reasonable price, or stand-alone for a bit more than a DLC since it won't require us to buy Arma 3. Possible addon/dlc purchases for the game, but nothing to really change stuff in-game, more like a golden donator star in the player list or things like that. I think if you do special skins for sale they should only effect the default civ skin and shouldn't camouflage anymore than the default one. - These purchases would help pay for Hive cost. I would like to see you stay as the lead dev, and if you choose a studio I would like you to stay with BI hopefully, maybe they can support you with some money to hire a few devs of your choice that you trust to stay true to the vision of the project. I am totally cool with a Kickstarter, as long as the rewards have like a pre-order for the game and maybe cool things like DayZ shirts. Edit: Oh yeah community servers with reserved slots please. Maybe have a minimum number of slots you must host before you can add reserved slots. Like now with min being 40, say you want 5 reserved slots? You will have to host a 45 slot server then. Also if you guys make enough off like donator stars or skins like I said above maybe host some studio run servers as well.

say -1 "text here" -1 is for channel 1 which is global

God damnit, this is going to make catching hackers even fucking harder, the log files will bloat to files way too damn large to conveniently download and they will be too large to open.

That doesn't help one bit, if anything I have had more hackers in my server since 1.7.2.3 / 94876, than in the 2-3 weeks before it. I keep my scripts.txt updated with everything I can find to stop script kiddie tricks and hacks. The problem is people are bypassing battleye, had a guy in my server yesterday around 6AM that teleported to all the players and killed them, we saw his name, I checked the logs, he had no unusual scripts in there, they are bypassing it in a way that it isn't even logged anymore.

Yes but not at the same time? I have Arma 2 CO installed on both my desktop and laptop through my steam account. But no both cannot be played at the same time, because even if you launched one through steam and one not through steam you are still using the same key.

How do you run it on your own computer? I was under the impression from reading the site and install guide that it will only work on the dedicated server it's running on. I have a managed slot server so can't install it so if I can get it running on my home PC that would be awesome.

If you give me the name of a specific server I can try to search.

There was a change in the naming convention of servers. They are now all Dayz [COUNTRY CODE] [LOCATION ID] [OPTIONAL CITY NAME] [version/beta] ....more stuff after
