The issue is that cheat reporting mainly serves the purpose of raising this issue to the attention of the admin of the server so he can try to identify the players responsible. And as I said I only noticed this thread purely by chance as it popped up in the "recent posts" list on the forum main page. Whereas if you'd have posted in the server thread I had received an instant e-mail notification. On the contrary when creating new posts with "DE 373" as name I do not even have the possibility to find these via the forum search as it has problems with such search terms. So it is very likely that I'd never find such threads. I agree with you that most people will ignore ingame messages - but that is what server threads are for ;) To sum it up again, here is what you can do to make a server admin aware of issues: Search for a server thread for this particular server, if the location ID contains spaces strip these for the search without space (e.g. DE373) Post in this thread or PM the thread opener Have a look at the server name because many will have domains of the hosters included Watch out for server broadcasts as these might give indications on where to report issues

Well didnt the devs state that the hive would only save legit weapons (so hacked weapons will despawn on join)? So how could it reply with an inventory which contains a weapon which is obviously not in DayZ atm. Even apart from this: Of course he could just have picked it up - every admin has to decide for himself how he handles such cases /edit: I disagree with you on that. Even if an admin would be willing to read stuff/tutorials on how to interpret logfiles I do not believe there is actually a good source with such information available right now

Uhm simply have a look in the server_console.log to get the id?!

First off: Great idea - keep up the good work. I am sorry if this has been asked before - but does this work if you've renamed the arma2oaserver.exe? In my case I have 3 server processes running on one machine with different .exe names for each to be able to easily tell them apart in the processlist. If this is not supported yet - will you add support for this kind of setup lateron? Thanks!

Hi Scrat, I am the admin of DE 373 First off - next time please take the time to search the Forum for the existing server Thread (http://dayzmod.com/f...page__hl__de373) or post directly on our page (http://forum.mydayz.de - might actually be difficult as it is in german) which is announced via ingame global every 20 minutes - I only noticed this thread by chance. Unfortunately despite the fact that (or maybe because...) we are putting much effort in keeping our servers hack/cheat free we got several other reports of hacks and cheats on DE 373 during the last days. Thanks for your report - I will go through the logs and see if anything comes up! cheers leepfrog

During the last days we've observed that the server was near empty almost all the time while our two other Servers DE285 and DE373 are near limit, especially in the evening hours. We thing that this has to do with the disabled 3DP setting which seems to scare away many players. While we appreciate that a small amount of people likes to play "hardcore" with 3DP disabled we feel that most players will appreciate a mid to near full server to have more player interaction. This is why we decided to turn 3DP back on. This means that the server still runs on more hardcore settings (Death messages disabled, CH disabled) and in GMT+2 (server nighttime in sync with the nighttime in germany) but with 3DP enabled. Feel free to post your opinion regarding this change here.

Hey guys, thanks for the feedback - we really appreciate it. I wasn't at home until now so the update was a bit delayed. The servers were patched a few minutes ago and now run on the following versions: ArmA2 Beta: 95417 (Client Version 95389 required to play) DayZ 1.7.2.4 Hive 0.7.2 Have fun playing!

Hi Izithel, I wanted to get back to this earlier but just today found the time. You are right that adblocker will free you from almost any ad on any site. However also keep in mind that ads may be necessary to pay the bills for webservers/gameservers/voiceservers, which I'm certain you do as you already stated that you selectively turn it off. However when talking about ads there are two main motives: - Sites with ADs which only aim at attackting visitors to make money out of the traffic. - Sites who use their ADs to pay the bills the site is actually creating And then there is the third group which does not have ads at all and invests own money to get the site up and running (maybe later get the spent money back in part with donations). This is the group we are currently belonging to, and as long as it is financially bearable we will stick to this. And let me be perfectly clear - these are not amounts of just a few €. Now if you'd were about to search a new community, would you tend to go to one which is belonging to the first or second group, or one which dedicates itself to stay ad free as long as possible (don't get me wrong - this is not implying that other DayZ Communities go for the first or second alternative) That being said to the ads I also want to spend a few lines on what you wrote about the wiki. Here also I agree with you that the german Wikis are currently very fragmented (many small ones). Also our own Wiki is still by far not complete and has to be improved upon, but this is an ongoing process. The english version is very well established, but keep in mind that it does exist 2,5 months now, we just got started one week ago. I also think the german Wikis will have to change at some point and maybe some mergers have to take place, but I don't think this time is now. We for example are proud of what we were able to create (also of being able to keep it ad free), and I think each community/wiki founder will see his own creation as "own little baby" which he will have difficulties with giving this away. Besides that - I generally don't like the idea of having monopoly. I always like the idea of having different alternatives to chose from - also keep in mind the saying "competition is good for business". Let some time pass and we all will see how this evolves. Anyway, I hope you can understand our points, and thanks again for your honest feedback!

Hi Lee, thanks for your posts - thats basically the same conclusion I came to when troubleshooting this issue. However what would be important right now is that a DayZ Dev states that these issues are caused by an overloaded Hive and that the individual server admins are neither to blame for this nor have the possibilities to change something about the fact (e.g. by throwing more hardware at it). As you without doubt have experienced users (especially those without solid technical background) tend do jump to conclusions stating the server/admin/provider is "sh**". So an official announcement by the Dev Staff is absolutely needed here, so that admins can refer users to this! At the moment we are not getting the feeling that this problem is acknowledged/worked on by the Devs due to NO official statement regarding these lags. This is a really bad situation as the admins/providers are falsely accused of being responsible for these issues. What we all need to remember is that the vast majority of servers is hosted by people which are not making profit out of it, but pay for it. And exactly these group of people which dedicate their time, money and hardware to providing DayZ servers (thus making the rapid DayZ growth possible) get blamed here! This is an unacceptable situation and I'd really appreciate if you could use your connections as Service Provider to the Dev Team to make them aware of this fact and urge them to release a statement. Thanks!

Hi BlackEagle, du brauchst die nicht in deinen Client zu kopieren sondern kannst einfach draufklicken wenn du TS3 installiert hast ;) Wenn du die Adresse richtig eingeben willst, dann musst du folgende Daten verwenden: IP: mydayz.de Port 9999 Grüße

Bump! Any update for this? This is really annoying and especially in the evening hours almost regulary every 10 minutes!

Just installed 95248 which should fix network desync (http://forums.bistudio.com/showthread.php?137632-ARMA-2-OA-beta-build-95248-(1-62-MP-build)) and this is NOT FIXED - issue is still happening!

that would be great disorder

Great - please let us know the result!

This really needs to be addressed.. Any news yet, or does anyone have further ideas for troubleshooting?

Exactly the same on my servers. Also with the "Network message <hex> is pending

I am getting the same with a new server (which is also currently not working). So I'd be interested in the reason/solution for this too

Yes my request is also pending for 5 days. At least I know now that I am not the only one. I guess we just have to wait ;)

Hi Dante, thanks for getting back to this. I was aware of the "bumping" thing, this is why I thought I'd be nice to have a rough guesstimate whether it at the moment takes around 24h or more like 7 days to get reviewed. However I understand your point - posting a fixed timeframe may lead to additional support requests. I'll just wait for the request to be handled - thanks for the effort the whole dev team is putting into this project :)

Hi Dante, I also have signed up for an instance ID. I understand that the reviewing process takes time but could you provide us with the avg. current delay between filing an application and being reviewed? This would allow for better planning. Thanks!

Same thing here. Tried on different browsers but does not work. No difference if logged in or not.
