Looking for a friendly Private Hive server
Allie (DayZ) replied to Holograph's topic in Mod Servers & Private Hives
EPM-GAMING, server called gb 500 Good admins, little hackers(rollback when needed) A lot of friendly players, but be adviced, there are still bandit groups and clans, so you will most likely still be killed by other players. For me at the moment this server is the BEST. Watch out for Zulu's -
As a fresh spawn on a new server, how long does it take you to gear up?
Allie (DayZ) replied to snake pliskin's topic in DayZ Mod General Discussion
Gear up ?, It takes until i find my first weapon, then i'm all set, so maybe 5 minutes. -
Well it seems one of the default files of Arma is corrupt or whatever. This is weird if you are not a editor/scripter Best to do is completely remove and reinstall arma2 and arma OA
-
Go play on the EPM-GAMING server. its called gb 500, nice admins there and good gameplay, watch out for Zulu's :)

Really need help with "No message received for __ seconds"
Allie (DayZ) replied to tehredundant's topic in DayZ Mod Troubleshooting
I found out that when my Linux Box is downloading smut, i can not connect to any DayZ server, even if i limit the download to the linux box. The only way for me to connect to a server and not getting the "no message receive" is to shut down the downloads on the linuxbox. It is weird, and i don't have any idea why, but it is, so only option for me is to stop downloading connect to server and restart the downloads again. -
Are you sure you are NOT in combat at the time you try to logout ? I should not know of a different way to stop gaming, i mean i use ESC to stop my game ?!? Only thing i can think of is you try to "combat log", make sure your little pistol icon is not flashing when you try to get out of the game. Lots of admins will remove your gear if they catch you "combat logging"

DO NOT USE THESE SERVER HOSTS
Allie (DayZ) replied to DayzBlackHeart's topic in Mod Servers & Private Hives
All server hosters think about just going to a "REAL" hoster, not a preconfiged DayZ server. Learn to setup the things yourself, be boss over your own server and all your tools. There is options enough out there. Learn to manage your own server from A to Z. Fc.... the preconfiged ones. -

Adding spawnpoints for loot or even for spawned in vehicles and objects, be prepared to do A LOT OF WORK. Thats how it is, lots of work, for a giggle just try create a new island for Arma, thats work :) I prepared a DayZ mission to be able to have a race with 20 Hiluxes, this took me the whole night only to figure out all spawnpoints, i had them all placed in the editor and then read out the coordinates from the mission.sqf file. Crap thing is in the mission.sqm the possitions are in a different order then in the spawn table of the database, so i also had to change the order of all spawnpoints coordinates manually. Welcome to the world of Operation Flashpoint/Arma :)

Hi there. There is 3 tables important for what you want to do, actually only 2 tables need to be altered. First the "Object Classes" table, here are all objects then can spawn in. ( note: in this table you also have to declare the amount of objects that can spawn ( for instance there is a "UH1" in the list and it can spawn for instance 10 times, now there needs to be 10 "UH1" in the second table with different spawn positions) The second table ( i'm sorry i do not have it on this pc, so i dont know the exact name) It is the table that holds all spawnpoints for the objects, this table can have multiple objects of the same sort, so for example it can have 5 hiluxes in there, but all of them have a different spawnpoint. So if you want 200 vehicles spawn on 200 different places you have to manually insert all these vehicles into this table. In the "PMain" function you only need to change the amount to spawn : BEGIN DECLARE iSpawnNumVeh SMALLINT(15) DEFAULT 200; In this case change the 200 to whatever you want, but again if you say 200, the second table needs to have 200 objects with spawnpoints. Hope this helped :)

Missing file errors after editing pbo's

Missing file errors after editing pbo's
Allie (DayZ) replied to shibdib's topic in Mod Servers & Private Hives
hi mate, i have tryed to extract the dayz_server.pbo, i used the tool called "ExtractPbo1.76" together with the "DePbo3.24" dll. I always used these tools to extract pbo's for arma, it always worked perfect. U talk about a bin file to extract, but i did not have to do that for this file "dayz_server.pbo". Well to continue, i extracted the pbo and then just repacked it again with "CPBO", set up a server and tryed to connect............ I have the same problem as you, and i did not even change anything inside the file. So our problem is the extraction and packing. However, i think this can also have to do with the "dayz.biKey" file not beeing valid anymore, or something with this "HiveEXT.dll" file. Any input from anybody :) It might just be the tools we are using, there might be new/other versions out there these days. -
Missing file errors after editing pbo's
Allie (DayZ) replied to shibdib's topic in Mod Servers & Private Hives
Were you just extending the list of spawnpoints for use on a different "map", or are you actually changing Dayz logic ? Tell us some more of what you are trying to do . -
Missing file errors after editing pbo's
Allie (DayZ) replied to shibdib's topic in Mod Servers & Private Hives
i presum u understand that the edited files also needs to be at the client connecting to your server ? It says it can not find the files so what have you changed ? -
They are all private hives you have visit. It is hard to find a "official" hive server these days, most are private hive servers.

Am I doing this right or screwing it up?
Allie (DayZ) replied to mjkproductions's topic in DayZ Mod Troubleshooting
Download "Dayz Commander" this will give you optins to update arma as well as DayZ. http://www.dayzcommander.com/ -
I do not understand how to solve my problem
Allie (DayZ) replied to Valenciano96's topic in DayZ Mod Troubleshooting
OK, UNINSTALL everything. Install Arma2..........>>>> Patch it >>>>>> Play it for a minute. Then...... Insall Arma2 Operation Arrowhead >>>>>>> Patch it >>>>> Play it for a minute.... Open DayZCommander and download/install DayZ http://www.dayzcommander.com/ That should do it, if not maybe download "Play with Six", its a simular application as dayz commander but it is more for Arma itself, you can install DayZ and other MOD's true that application. http://play.withsix.com/ Good luck. -

do you think peripheral dots will be in dayz standalone?
Allie (DayZ) replied to Pixelwarrior's topic in DayZ Mod General Discussion
When you play the game in "mercenary" mode, so NO 3rd person cheat, no tags, no CH, then there are NO dots. It is just that 99% of servers run on "cadet" mode, with 3rd person, with CH, with Tags. -
Best version: Steam version or Non-Steam version?
Allie (DayZ) replied to BigEdMan's topic in DayZ Mod General Discussion
retail DVD version, because it is yours, really yours. Steam version is not yours, you just lease it, its crap especially when you are an installation fetishist like i am. -
Vehicle count has to do with the functions in the database. Start your server and start navicat lite, make sure you are able to connect to the database with navi lite, login and pass are both "root", then go in and check the tables, one of the tables shows all vehicle that can be spawned in, look at the table and find the amount that is allowed to spawn. Then go into the "functions" of the database and find , i think it was called "pmain", in there i is now set at 11 as default, just change that to whatever you like, but be adviced, there are just as many spawn points as defined in the database, so when you for instance spawn 10 helicopters, it might be you have a spot on the map with 5 choppers stacked on top of eachother. Just browse true the database and see whats up ( make an update of all your stuff before fooling around with it !!!

Need help enabling direct and vehicle chat only
Allie (DayZ) replied to MissBehave's topic in Mod Servers & Private Hives
As i remember correct the setting you are talking about is done inside the mission itself. Go into your MPMissions folder and find the Dayz.chernarus folder, inside are some files, if i'm correct the settings are in the "Description.ext", here alink to the wiki about it : http://community.bis...Description.ext The command you are looking for is called : "disableChannels" Hope this will help you, good luck. *************************** disableChannels[]={0,1,2,6}; 0 = Global 1 = Side 2 = Command 3 = Group 4 = Vehicle 5 = Direct 6 = System ************************************** -
And download NaviCat lite, so you can go into the database and fool around in there, spawn points, amount of vehicles is all done in the database. Have fun and good luck.

Here is the link to the whole repository : https://github.com/P...-Private-Server Did you copy the whole arma2 directory into the arma2OA directory ? Did you download the whole Pack(or repository) and copied it into the Arma2OA directory ? Are you starting the "@Start_server.bat" file ? If so what does the little popup window say while starting up ? All should work "out of the box" GREAT to hear it works. Now go into the "cfgDayZ" folder and open the "server.cfg" file, in here you can set the passwords and other fun settings for your server, for instance the name and welcome messages.

Are you using the "Pwnoz0r" version ? This link : http://www.tunngle.n...ps-not-updated/ Are you using the steam version of the games ? I think this version is the most easy for people who start learning the ropes of hosting. Also make sure you ALWAYS backup your original game directories first !!!!
