Hello everyone, Our Swedish organization called GamingScience is now proud to announce our new DayZ server. Please visit: http://www.tourney.se/dayz Servername: Eurocenter Features: - No Whitelist! - Private hive - High performance server - 1gbps connection - Automatic server restarts - 100+ vehicles - Active admins - ZERO admin abuse - Report issues on website - Admin Skype contact - TeamSpeak Server You are welcome to join any time! There is loads of vehicles waiting for you and your friends!

Server is updated to 1.7.7. It has been online for half a year now without issues. And we tend to be online until DayZ Standalone is fully released! Come and join the fun. Connection details: http://www.tourney.se/dayz

Updated server to 1.7.6.1 We have no issues with script restrictions on eating / drinking.

We have changed the server to Daylight only.

It's damn hard right now but I like it!

On your Desktop.

Please put 1.7.2.4 in the Sixlauncher and make it the official "current" version. Then I am more than happy to wait for as long as it takes to get 1.7.3. 1.7.2.5 is horrible. Everyone I know have stopped playing because of it. Servers are running this version because of six launcher. And the remaining people are playing this version because of six launcher. Yet it is totally unplayable. You are ruining dayz reputation day by day it's only a matter of time before "most" people can't stand waiting any longer. - By an impatient asshole.

That's a pretty neat idea. Going to consider it!

Guys I will only say it one more time. Downgrade your server to 1.7.2.4 then all your issues with vehicles and tents will be solved! I also don't like that new updates are slow, that devs don't talk to us and so on. But there is one really easy solution. Downgrade! Or maybe I should say UPgrade to 1.7.2.4. If you stay on 1.7.2.5 you will keep whining and nothing will be solved. You will have to wait for a real patch. And who knows if the next patch fixes anything. This one didn't. Hell they didn't even test this patch for 5 minutes and yet they released it. And all you dumb folks immediately goes on to be the best in class and upgrades your servers to a shitty version. Downgrade and have fun while waiting for a good patch. Problem solved.

First of all. Some cheaters use some kind of bypass so they won't show up in the logs at all. I hope BattlEye fixes that... But for those who do show up in the log how can we actually find the person who triggered the scripts? For example. A cheater joined my server earlier and teleported everyone on the server. This does indeed show up in the logs. But it doesn't show who executed the script! Is there a way to find how? Here is an example from earlier today. I want to report this cheater obviously but I cannot because I can't find his name... :( (All these below are likely to be innocent.)

I for sure won't buy the standalone until the mod is 100% finished. I will buy it when they have proved that they are able to fix bugs and cheaters.

I agree with you. I love the game but there are simply too many bugs to have any fun in 1.7.2.5. It doesn't matter how much of an alpha it is. We've tested enough and now we want to play! 1.7.2.4 is the way to go then.

It's definitely worth rolling back to 1.7.2.4. My server did that after 2 days of using 1.7.2.5 and we haven't met anyone who are invisible. I my self am a bandit with -150 000 humanity and I was never invisible.

Is it possible to use this Hive if the server is not hosted by Vilayer? 1.7.2.4 is much more stable. Tents and vehicles works fine. I recommend doing the rollback! Hero / Bandit skins are useless and they don't work properly anyway. 1.7.2.5 doesn't introduce anything new except a ton of bugs!

No you must downgrade your game version but it's totally worth it. Just download dayz commander and it will do the job automatically for you.

That is correct. You delete the 1.7.2.5 files inside @DayZ/addons/ and then you paste the 1.7.2.4 files in there instead. You also have to downgrade the hive files. So you delete your hive files inside Arma 2 operation Arrowhead folder. And then you insert the previous version at the same location. The previous hive files can be found in the control panel at support.dayzmod.com

Which CPU do you use on the machines?

HA is putting 6 on each machine and that is definitely overselling. And so is 4 servers on one machine. Dayz servers require a lot of cpu and bandwidth. Considering people pay around 50 euro every month for a standard 40/50 slot dayz server where they won't even be able to optimize the config for better performance. Having to share that one machine with 3-5 other customers. While you could rent a full dedicated machine just for your self and put whatever you want on it for about the same price. And you will be able to enhance the config for performance, connection speeds, higher cpu usage etc. The whole server runs so much more smoothly than a "Gamehosting provided" server. Did you ever join a server who took long time to load? And then another server where you loaded almost instantly? Servers and configs makes a big difference. It's a ripoff.

We've given them feedback already and they know about the issues. But waiting for several weeks for a minor hotfix doesn't cut it. 1.7.2.5 is totally unplayable and 1.7.2.4 is working "okay". So why should we keep 1.7.2.5 and stop playing while waiting for the next patch when we can just rollback and keep having fun while waiting? Worrying about stupid tent? My group fully repaired a helicopter 4 times and several other vehicles as well. And every server restart they keeps going back to their spawning position in a broken state. We wasted too many hours fixing those vehicles and it's all for nothing. 1.7.2.5 is messed up. The tents resets them selves in 1.7.2.4 too. Annoying yes but not a big deal. Vehicles not saving their positions however is a BIG deal. When we went back to 1.7.2.4 everything was perfectly fine regarding the vehicles. The graphics glitches are just as bad in .5 as in .4. The whole forum is already flooded with bug reports so you don't really make any sense. But if you want to keep playing on a buggy version then by all means do so. Even though it doesn't make any sense. <_<

All of the dayz server providers are overselling their machines. You can rent a whole dedicated server instead and get way better performance for about the same price.

Did you downgrade the hive files as well? Or just the dayz files? I downgraded both the hive files and dayz files as they used to be on 1.7.2.4 and I have 0% problems of vehicles not getting saved etc. What I don't understand though is why the number of 1.7.2.5 servers are increasing every day when the patch is such a fail. 1.7.2.4 should be the increasing one and 1.7.2.5 decreasing. Doesn't people notice all the new problems or what?

A dead body always stays until server restart. Or until someone finds your body and decides to "hide" it. If you disconnect before getting the dead message then the body will disappear. If a body has disappeared before server restart then it is because someone hid it. People usually do that to prevent other people from getting the remaining loot.

DayZ is very fun but it is also very incomplete. Filled with bugs, headaches, long walks, annoying deaths, cheaters etc. I still recommend to play it because it's fun even though all of this. But if you could only pick one game then I would pick the game that is "Finished".

I find fraps to have better quality but worse performance while playing.

You basically sent an application to get permission to host a dayz server. So you must wait until they evaluate your server specs and internet speed plus IP address to see that it all adds up and that you are not lying. Once you have been approved or declined you will receive another e-mail with instructions of how to install the actual dayz server. (assuming you got approved). If you get declined they will send you a different email with the reason.
