unhap

Got unbanned. Feel fucking vindicated. Thanks to everyone who chimed in to help raise awareness and get this fixed. Thanks Dingus for keeping us updated and Thanks to Suma and Sabel for fixing this. I would like all the trashtalkers to take a look at this situation and maybe incorporate what you have learned today (like perhaps that you are not the end all be all correct opinion on everything) into your future dealings with other people on the internet.

I'm unbanned here as well :) I would still like some sort of official statement saying "we found the problem it's safe to play now"

That's the obvious answer. He's probably been secretly hacking dayz games since 2009 well before dayz even existed.\edit: NEW TIME TRAVEL HACK CONFIRMED

Like an hour before I got banned I disconnected while bleeding out/passing out. When I reconnected I was dead and was prompted to start a new character.

Yes I was running -cpuCount=4 and -threads=7 -- i have a core i5 2500k

Fuck me. It's not working for me now. Maybe I connected to a non battle eye server? How was I at the same location with all my gear then? Wouldnt that mean it had to be connected to the hive/battle eye?

Those guys that the fix is not working for - did you also downgrade your beta patch to 417 or no?

I used dayzcommander No idea what the difference is

HOLY SHIT! Guys! I found a fix! Some guy on reddit said it had happened to him before and to download the latest version of battle eye. I was like ...pfft yeah right. Anyway I went to http://www.battleye.com/download.html and got the 1.62 windows version. Replace your dll in arma directory /expansions/battleye Voila! Game is working fine now. I also downgraded to beta version 95417. Not sure if I'm going to play until all this shit gets sorted out though. Post back whether or not it worked for you!

Well I just got home from work. I don't appear to have gotten unbanned as some were claiming (and then saying they were banned again?)

If you are not a player affected by the recent wave of false positive global bans please stay out of this thread and don't clog it up with your nonsense. If you feel the need to hear yourself speak and want to tell us we're all just lying or to suck it up and go buy a new key - go to another thread. The only purpose of this thread is for those of us affected to try to get to the bottom of what we have in commong to see if there is anything that could be affecting us. My set up: Using dayzcommander to launch the game with startup parameters for quad core processor -cpucount=4, etc. Have sixlauncher installed but dont use it. Used worrom updater to update to latest version of dayz. the AObeta. running beta patch 95724 no lingor island, custom skins, etc. only modified file in my steam directory was the AObeta file that I used to run dayz before getting dayzcommander - the only modification was where I put @dayz in the line to run the mod. yesterday right before my play session that i got banned i loaded up and played Arma 2: OA vanilla for the first time but only for about 10 minutes. I don't know if I disabled dayz or whatever but it didn't appear to be running the dayz mod during my OA play session. during the play session I got the global banned I was killed by someone who I believe to be a hacker. I lit him up with my gun and he didn't die but then came at me and killed me in 1 shot from behind a tree (neither of us could see eachother when I died) Once again I have no idea if any of these could trigger a ban or have anything to do with anything. I'm just posting everything I can think of to try to find a common thread between us. Please post anything you can think of so we can try to find anything in common.

You're being an idiot.Why would I come on here and try to get to the bottom of this shit if I had been hacking? If I were a hacker I would know why I was banned. There would be literally no point to me coming on these forums. BE doesn't read or care about these forums - so i'm not goin to "trick" them into reversing my ban by coming on the forums.

The BE website says overlays such as fraps do not get bans (which I tend to believe) - I wasn't running fraps anyway.

I haven't had a chance to log in since yesterday to see if my ban was lifted. I heard another person (rinsa) on reddit and here say that he got a ban lifted and then rebanned. Not sure wtf is going on. I got banned under patch 95724 (seeing as how patch version seems to be the prominent theory....even though I know people on new patches who are not banned)

weird because i can confirm with 100% certainty that there are bans for players who are not hackers....seeing as how I was one of them.It's very easy for people to sit and say "you're just lying" - I would probably be doing the same thing if I had not experienced this shit first hand.
