FF Prophet

I already wrote an email, but maybe someone another encountered the same error, we would like to roll with new stuff tonight. Since I know that custom files are unsupported, but my problem is strange: We are using same custom mission file for a month, it was delivered to the server using total commander with ftp account info I got from dayz.st (appreciated very much, it was extra ordinery service that days). Now I got just read-only rights on that ftp account so I need to go through CP upload. The current file is running with no errors, players can join and play with new structures, npcs and sensors. But yesterday I was trying to do an update via CP upload and everyone got stuck after lobby (the mission in lobby downloads correctly), the map just blinks, disapears and neverending loading screen appears. So firstly I thought I got some syntax error in my new file. After several attemps I also tried CP upload of the very same file that was/is running there for a long time (from December) and again: no luck, loading screen stuck. When I return to a default file option in CP (then it use my custom 265kb December file, not the vanilla 40kb one, cause I overwrote it through FTP client previously, in other words I am unable to reset to the blank default file right now else than upload it by CP like a custom one - and it works:) But that is not my concern, I need just update the mission file, don't want to use the default one. I am very confused, because the custom mission file is working, but when I upload the same file with CP panel, it does not. Is there some converting during the upload or whatsoever? I am not using special characters, just the standard mission file name. Net connection should be also fine. Anyone has/had the same trouble? Ersan, can you help please? The file uses extra Vehicle classes, there are npc Groups added and Sensors. The file is 265 kb, so it may be ok. SOLVED

Hello Ersan, I wrote you an emails (our server: 159.253.131.97:2312), first on 1st December about suddenly inaccessible FTP for uploading custom mission file that you had so kindly provided to us. Still no reaction from you. I see there's so much to do to recover from attacks so in no way I am bagging you for that it is not working while it is not (for the moment) a standard service. I strongly appreciate that you have ever given it to us. But a small echo would be great and calms me down explaining what is wrong or that it is temporary unavaible (ftp access calls wrong login password). Now I don't know if you ever received the mails. It's 5 days since I sent the 1st one. Any ETA on the announced regular FTP access? Keep up the good efforts Thank you so much

Check my previous previous post, where they wrote me that roll back to 1.7.2.6 is impossible. At this time I have an email conversation with guy from Dayz.ST, he's responding on my emails immediately and I was given informations from him about custom mission file I requested (as they don't have full FTP access yet, but they would replace it for me if I send the file to them - from my point of view it is more safer approach as they can check it first before uploading and I would not accidentaly mess the server up) Then he told me there is an arma mission file convertor to a DB insert task for new structure instances, my bad I hadn't known. Helpfull. Definitly try to stick with them for now. And that is all I need to say on this thread. Will not post again and will leave it to its own life. Hope everyone is happy at the end of the day. Take care.

You are right and I realize that clearly. Also you can see I am trying not to be rude and I am avoiding bad language, I just needed my information, now I got it and will take action. Money's not worth it, anyway FED is making them out of thin air :) For me one must be crazy to go into the business like that, mean commercially provide servers for a Mod in alpha stage for a great but very buggy game and putting 3rd parties aplications together = High risk of screwing it up. But that is no excuse. Now you can't yell at Rocket team for anything at all, otherwise it is just honest "Thank you". It is free mod now, so I don't get those people whining in Rolling update thread. Just kids that haven't done anything by themselves in their whole virtual PC life. That's it. Only hard working people can actually appreciate others peoples hard work. (even with faults) But SS went to offer this service for chips, so they had to know what the risks are, what to offer and what not and whether they can handle the business with all that come in future. They just lost my trust for now, maybe they will fix it perfectly someday, but now I don't see any reason to pay for waiting.

So finally I got response (din't bother with counting the hours of delay), but not happy about it at all. Will forward some general info to you, to help making your own decision. I made it. SS replied: If you respond to the same ticket it will take longer for us to reply because our support ticket system will look at the "last reply" to determine which tickets to answer first. This is why you haven't received a timely response. I knew they would apologize it with something similar. Yep, it is my fault you got useless ticket system or useless use of it. Nice Unfortunately, the Bliss 4.0 update means we no longer support rMod (does not work with 1.7.3) and so we've had to remove it entirely including all vehicles. It does not work by you, how is that possible then? >>> (1.7.3) 70+ Vehicles | rMod | Old School DayZ | ***Whitelist applications** | Public Ventrilo (hosted by Dayz.ST btw.) <<< Magic? This is a total game breaker for our community and we need to move ASAP then. "dead players unable to join..." Can you explain this a little more thoroughly? I've not heard this issue before. God dammned server side issue problems? I was not so specific in post, ok, but you can guess it easily what it means. Lot of people got this issue, but never heard of it, jeez.... I've updated your server to commandline :: Chernarus because it was empty (I think because of rMod). Your server works fine now. But I want rMod server as ordered, our player base is used to it, can't tell them no Vodnik's any more :) We built community on tempered use of rMOd items (no jets, tanks etc.) to enrich the standing waters of Dayz and to make a nice place where people can play and have fun with the mod till Dayz SA is out. Now it is impossible. No possibility of rolling back to 1.7.2.6. Please let me know if you require further assistance Yes I need last one, proceeding my service cancelation. I don't care much for refunding my money (won't get anything though and need to advertise new server on the old one for a while) and I am not starting to bitch around, just care about those folks unable to play now the way they liked it. Bring it back is my task now. A big big dissapointment here....

Hi, pls check my ticket #184237, I replied to it by myself (lol) as I was adding "server side" issue to it. It was posted (your time) Saturday, November 3rd, 2012 (20:31), now is Monday, November 5th, 2012 (02:06), still no answer after 29 hours. Know you are busy, but come on, you are not doing it for free. It was posted in the evening, but you proclaim within 24 h, so? I see the Dayz ST are sold out, so everyone just moved there guys? :) Want one another server, so I will give them a try. And if SS is not improving soon, will move completely there. Lucky you SS for now, I'll give you chance till end of my due time, because I'm very patient, but from your posts here I feel you don't even care to loose customers and that is unacceptable business behavior for me. Just take note: The customer is always right. And you'll be beloved company. Cheers.

I run the game via steam so F12 make the job for screenshots and its edited of course. Guys, many thanks for advices, we'll try some next time. But my friend forgot to tell you, we got it out with bus already, pushing the back of the truck out. Shame I didn't shot it, would be nice picture sequence: SITUATION > SOLUTION. And that's what I love in Dayz, you must be creative:)

Hi guys, same accident happenned to me yesterday, I was pushed through the wall by Z in a small house and got stuck in there. My teammates tried anything (smoke&frag&M203 grenades), but nothing helped. We haven't found satchel yet, so no chance to try it that way. I was 2-3 minutes ahead commiting a suicide with a frag grenade, saying good bye to my gear, but I got finally luckily out, now tell you how: Before that I went through forums and picked up these tips for escaping a building prison:) 1/ Running into prone by walls 2/ Trying to vault the walls (V key) 3/ Moving to side (keys W+D or A) in several body position 4/ Backproning or rolling 5/ Turn around while crouching in the corner of room 6/ Not tried> Getting hit by zombies (able to hit through walls), going unconscious and friend of yours can drag you out of there But no luck with these... Suddenly, some troll has joined our mumble channel singing some gay song, so I alt-tabed (alt+esc) to mute him, got back in game and wonder what...I was outside that dammned building. What a joy I haven't lost a week old character and all that stuff. So try to alttab (alt+F4, but not working for me) while running/walking in to the wall (better the walls, that lets you go little further them, but then it push you back (hope you understand:) Prey it will help someone, cuz I know how frustrating this can be, when you are alphaed:) WARNING: I read posts by guys that alttabed in wrong place and were instantly killed... But when you are stuck and there's no other option, try it out to save your character. CU in Chernorus and sorry for my english grammar imprecision.)
