thats just the number of rows phpmyadmin is showing by default The number of vehicles SS only let you change in the shitty tool they charge $5 a month for (which never works properly) also the instance_vehicle table is the one listing all the vehicles you have in game, just in case you were in vehicle or world_vehicle

Yep I'm just worried for anyone who is considering their services

It's not that hard to do it in the 3d editor dude and when you place them in 2d you can't get the positions very accurate, all you need to do is follow the instructions to add some extra buildings to the editor, then you just load ARMA 2 with the extra buildings mods linked on tunngle and place your buildings. Save the mission then import it with the website linked. The results will be a lot better when you can do it in 3d trust me and its really fast when you get the editor in ARMA figured out. Send me a pm if you do want to try and have problems.

Just in case there was any more doubt here's what SS do when you speak your opinions on their services on a PUBLIC forum I'll let you read my posts in the main SS thread to see if you think I was extremely rude, insulting or implied I deserved different treatment to anyone else also complaining about the same things. I also have caches of all my support tickets if anyone wants to see those too.

I'm from the UK we have a process though and I'll be looking into it :)

Good to hear let me know if you need any help with transferring your database over, when you switch to dayz.st dude, to be honest I was kind of expecting this. I was stupid when I ordered and didn't search this forum first it was already full of complaints, think I even posted in it worried that I'd see problems. That was all I got let's hope no one else bothers using their inevitable token $5 refund either and realizes there are hosts who know what they are doing too.

I got a $5 voucher to use on my next month after my first period of downtime, no chance I was going to be using that one though. I was charged for the full month, I'll file a paypal complaint of course but I'm not really bothered any more having too much fun with my actual fully functioning server. I just don't want to see others suffer the same problems we all are. # Read back through the thread history a bit if you're new round here this patch isn't the first fuck up by far for SS...

http://tunngle.net/c...-173-bliss-027/ I recommend you check this out for placing your buildings you can do a much nicer job in the 3d editor, I can run the script to add them for you if you don't have anywhere to put it and arent worried about sharing your db login. Day.St guys might even be a good idea for you guys to integrate this script into the control panel?

Day.st same price better service :-)

I had a quick experiment before I went out, I had them spawning but with no gear even though I'd editted the inventory for the box before spawning it in the vehicle table. However I was being lazy and I used the tool to spawn the box in after I created the spawn point, I think it could still work if I let the game spawn them will test further later.... It'll be one loadout per crate class though I'll look for the class list later and see how many different loads we can have. My friend made the point earlier that the crates will need to be manually deleted once their inventory's are cleared. Only a quick one liner in php to do that though.

Spamming the forums with lies? Tell you what everyone who's reading this 192.198.81.6:2302 is my server IP let's see when someone actually gets in I paid for a server till December 4th I'll edit my post it has worked for more than 5 days in terms of letting people log in everything else I have said is true. We have had a 3 day period of total downtime already and of course the current one, plus the two days it took you to set the server up. I'll subtract them from the total number of days you actually managed on the 4th when I post my final thoughts on your company. However as for spawning vehicles correctly I'd say there was maybe a week where it was working and we all know how long your servers have been out of date for. You claimed this was so you could deploy the updates bug free, good job on that rofl. edit: HHAHA looks like I replied quick enough to catch your post before you edited it. Enjoy the drama as I said I really don't care my server is down I moved to a competant host. Why don't you do everyone in this thread a favor and end their contracts too.

Now this idea I do like, if my thinking is correct I could have multiple different ammo boxes with different loadouts then define a variety of spawn points for them, and loadouts in the vehicle table and hopefully they'd spawn randomly. I'm going to try it later thanks for being so helpful everyone :D

Ah I had already thought of that I'd like to be a little smarter tho, have a selection of tents and two are chosen at random on a timed event and two random guns are put in. Server then restarts and they're good to go. I think it's possible with pure SQL will share the results if I suceed

Don't modifications of missions require rebuilding bliss also? If you let us upload our own then rebuild bliss server side that would be epic...

Cheers guys :-) I'll let the guy know who reported it he has a problem with his game

I received a report today that new users to my servers (not ones I brought from my old servers survivor and profiles tables) are not able to login. I am unable to confirm this because myself and my squad members are all already in the database. But certainly from looking at BlissAdmin I can see there have not been any new players created since we switched servers. I don't suppose somebody on the forums would be kind enough just to quickly log into my server and let me know it went ok I am at work at the moment and won't be able to test until I can find someone who hasn't played on one of my servers before - 37.130.229.228:2402

Awesome dude I'll take a look at that tonight are you adding the items randomly with a script? Would love to see your code if you could send me a PM I will of course share my additions with you when I make changes. I'll jump on your server when I get home from work and check it out.

SS have now decided they won't support my server because I cancelled the payment, despite the subscription not ending till next week more details in this thread. Guess they are already too busy with all their broken servers for their last few remaining customers. http://dayzmod.com/forum/index.php?/topic/77082-survivalserverscom-bec-dayzantihax-map-toolfull-database-accessbliss-v42dayz-1744all-maps-privatecommunitypub-hive-2540-slots/page__st__1380 I will still be doing my own thread with the full details of my entire hosting experience with these idiots soon. I have logs of everything, downtime support tickets etc.

I think a lot of people would like to be able to, hopefully the bliss guys bring in some kind of system for modifying it or at least modifying the loot that spawns at the Wrecks/Care packages bliss spawns. In the mean time you can manually place lots of guns that aren't in vanilla dayz into tents vehicles or players without any problems (besides a few of the MG's deleting your backpack). If I can do it in SQL I'm planning on setting up a camp at one of the airfields with a few tents and then randomly placing custom weapons and ammo into them before the server restarts.

I was under the impression it is possible with FTP access but it requires rebuilding bliss which isn't for the faint of heart and can break your hive. It's still something I want to do one my server once FTP access is in place and I can actually track down some instructions on running build.pl for a server which isn't locally hosted. Any information anyone else could share on this would be great though as custom loot tables are something we definitely want to implement as well as adding some other guns into the loot pool. - http://opendayz.net/index.php?threads/modifying-heli-crash-loot.607/ edit: never mind read ersan191's very helpful response now, makes me very sad we won't be able to modify our helicopter crash site loot though. Guess I'll just come up with something in SQL to randomly place custom weapons in tents or something.

You already responded to my ticket thought I'd post it here for everyone to see I cancelled my subscription but my server was meant to be active until the subscription ended how am I meant to notify the few users we have left if you have terminated it? I didn't tick the option to have the service end immediately, so now YOU have terminated my server which still has time remaining on it's contract until December 4th because I replied to your earlier comment about it being fixed when it was still in the exact same state as before with: Can you not understand why a customer might be angry when they have received the service I have? Or maybe you are just so busy frantically fixing hundreds of broken servers that you don't give a shit about customers who are cancelling at the end of the month. Your infrastructure sucks and you don't understand automation or testing in the slightest. I honestly don't care by this point I doubt you'll manage to ever get my server back up. I'll just make sure I post as much as I can here and in other threads documenting the shocking service I have received from your host so others can see and hopefully don't ever make the same mistake I did of using your hosting. I have records of all my support tickets and the responses, as well as records of how long the server has been down or unavailable. I will be sharing my full experiences with your hosting company everywhere I can so other users don't make the same mistake I did of choosing you as a host. I paid for 4 weeks hosting with you, I received 2 days of downtime whilst you set the server up, and now it is completely inaccessible yet again. It has always been out of date and buggy humanity, vehicles not spawning damaged etc. Even if I hadn't cancelled my subscription before you tried to deploy these updates I definitely would have afterwards, but I am contracted till the 4th and you should be supporting my server until then. The most tragic part is you had the cheek to call me unprofessional.

You can see my experiences with SS in their thread but I'll be writing a full summary in this thread as well as theirs when the whole saga finally comes to and end (wonder if they even manage to get the host up before the subscription ends) Just wanted to do a quick post to remind people AVOID SS LIKE THE PLAGUE Now we are hosted with Dayz.St and it's like a dream after 1 month of SS hosting, well I say a month it only really worked fully for about a week of that....

I'm quite capable of reverting to 4.0 but there's nothing I can do when my server doesn't even start up any more regardless of configuration. It's not a configuration issue my settings are as they should be it's an incompetent server hosting provider. I have tried 4.0 and 4.2 but my server hasn't worked at all since following SS's instructions yesterday.

Any chance you could have a quick look at my messages table and tell me why all my messages are coming out in capital letters? bliss_743 is the db

Nope mine is still broken TCAdmin states "Chernarus (v1.7.3/Beta 98220)" in the description despite me installing all the new updates and changing the values in server config. The server never starts up. I have followed all of your instructions to the letter. I have a support ticket already open and you just copy pasted a generic response without actually looking at my host. Probably because you have so many angry customers saying exactly the same thing. This is seriously laughable by this point, who was the guy who said a couple of pages back he was happy to wait over a week for SS to install updates because there wouldn't be any bugs. They can't even deploy an update I think my buddy had about 15 minutes downtime when his host deployed the patch OVER A WEEK AGO. I'm just glad I already switched hosts, at this rate I'll never be able to tell the users of my old host about the new details, that's if there are any left after being on the wrong patch for so long and all the downtime.
