Not all resets can be broadcast. So many times i've wanted to tell my troops that it's going down - but when it locks up you JUST CAN'T! RCon doesn't work, you can't log in, you can't connect. I play a lot on my own server, but 90% of the time it goes down when i'm no where near a damn keyboard and i have to RDP from my ipad to fix it. If you are suspicious of the admins, find another server to play on - there are plenty out there.

I have messaged him a couple of times to no avail, i shall attempt again.

Would this include the JIP patches that dwarden has made? He also patchfixed a few things in the hive/server.pbo to increase performance and cut out error messages :)

It's up. Go play

You do know there are actually tools to help you. Have a look into script protection in battleye. Sure it's not the best defence but it certainly helps. You can get a lot of help from the dayz admins channel on irc

Lol you cheeky git!

you can't take their weapon. Only whats in the backpack, your rules are flawed.

hey luke, nimbles mate? :) also: Destroy this douche with the law. I just hope your prepared for not storing the information entrusted to you safely :P

Hi Guys, Thanks for gate keeping Mr Milney. The ping limits have been off for a couple of days, and there have been no player restrictions and I have no one in my ban list (that i've banned). Can I suggest you PM me your details, maybe steam name and i'll add you so we can figure out what's going on. Look forward to having you back in! (I've seen you around, but you've never seen me :P)

I've kicked previously because: A) I'd rather kick one, than ban 15 for racial insults back B) Once they've been asked to speak in english most generally do, and the population on the server stops making "Filthy russian" type comments. C) If they are asked to speak english, and then start accusing me of racism... well... it's not exactly racist to ask someone to speak in english is it? I've banned people, a lot of people, for abusing foreign speakers - all i ask though is that a little effort be made by all joining to follow the language on the server. I've set up BEC to have 300 warnings, so it's very unlikely they'll get a kick for speaking in cyrillic. It's got nothing to do with xenophobia

Server Admin: UK4 Please add me to the group. - Adam, howdy, BT isn't the problem apparently :D

if you check your Arma2 rpt file, just after connection failed what messages do you get? http://community.bistudio.com/wiki/Crash_Files My clients are receiving "Nat negotiation failed (NNThink 3)" I wonder if it is an issue with HIVE and not the server, seeing as you have spotted a commonality.

Hi, I'm the admin of UK4, i've not been 'requiring' the use of the beta client, so thats not an issue. If you got an error message from battle eye, it could be a false positive. I'll remove you from the banlist now. feel free to join any time.

Some admins need sleep. Like me for example. I stayed up late to patch 1.5.8.2. I did this then went to bed. Went to work. Came back then updated to .4 It wasn't laziness it was necessity. To presume otherwise is rather rude. If someone is lethargic enough to neglect an update for several days, then it's a problem. A day? Not so much.

So, basically we can't kick people - my intention was to set it up as a warning mechanism only, to inform people to do their best to speak in the majorities language, I've got my warnings set to 10, then a kick (which is unavoidable due to how the app is made i guess). I've found through reading my server logs a disturbing trend for the majority of my players to gang up on non-english speak individuals, it's disgusting behaviour and many people have been kicked for taking it too far. It goes like this: Rus22: ­áOûþ┌6!!! DaveENG: Wtf mate english IgnorantCockENG: Yeah, get out ruskie Rus22: sorry, i not english AnotherDickENG: Fuck off Rus22: ­ûþ┌áþ┌Oûþ┌!! Entireserver: Racism racism racism ad nauseum. I've implemented the warnings to show players that "you don't have to worry, they are trying and have been asked to try"

UK4 has this disabled, and it does indeed change the atmosphere. My regulars love this!

Hi Guys, I've been using Monitor for a while, since Silentspy set it up for me. I would like to suggest the following: 1: Allow multiple applications to be started and monitored. Within the Programs node: hive hive.exe hive hiveAuth.exe I would like the ability to define another application - such as BEC* - so it could also be restarted on server reboot. I'd also like the ability to individually control the affinity of these applications. 2: Beta server support Within the tag, I would like to be able to utilise the beta server EXE, since the latest update resolves a lot of the memory allocation issues and crashes, it would be more prudent to use this going forward (for those that want to). 3: Don't overwrite my ban list! I understand that you do not want us to ban people without some serious infraction, but I use temporary (30m, 60m, 1day) bans to keep the server clean and enjoyable for everyone, from VON spammers, racist assholes and over the top douchery**. Upon a server restart, it overwrites the bans.txt and bitshifts one from your servers - nullifying the ban, and instantly the nobs are back on the server shouting over VON at everyone. Despite telling people to mute them there is always an overwhelming push for me to kick/ban them - people start leaving the server and it generally ruins it for everybody. I'd never ban anyone permanently, I rely on DayzDev to make that call. * http://forums.bistudio.com/showthread.php?127978-B-E-C-quot-Battleye-Extended-Controls-quot-Admin-Tool ** Douchery defined as: Abusive behavior, racism, general twattishness*** *** twattishness defined as: All the above, and refusal to heed warnings

bump for other server admins

Cheers :)

You need to remove dsound.dll from the server + beta directory or it wont work.

There is a major issue with that idea, and this is due to the way jayarma2lib communicates to the hive applications. When a request is made from server -> hive app -> mother ship It kinda ties up the server for a bit, waiting for the response. My server tends to die more during peak times than overnight or early morning - i'd say around 5-6pm gmt when the Americas start waking up, probably due to a memory leak caused by hung connections to hive. Introducing a delay tactic for the mother ship will have a knock on effect to all connected clients, and in turn the servers, making them crash more often, and when brought back online 50 new connections resulting in yet another crash! We just need to be patient until rocket and co can streamline the communications between platforms and suck up these issues like the delicious tears that they are, preferably slurping through a straw of pain.

You are paying for your server to assist in the development of the mod. That's how I see it. I host UK4 - If my server is full, i'll play elsewhere. Those server hosts who rent a server so they can have a "Guaranteed" slot have the wrong mentality in my opinion, I'm hosting to help out. And because I want to. As stated by rocket, having access to HIVE is a privilege, and it's not one im willing to squander.

If you are using Monitor, go to the server directory, find Config.xml adjust max players value to suit. also edit cfgdayz\server.cfg to reflect the value. That should do it.

There was some chatter on the IRC channel about servers using "Perma-day" settings, infact they were discussing the best way to do it. I told them it was a bannable offence but no one believed me :P
