Our new server is already up. Search for Quixotic Folly or QF. New server's IP is 173.192.70.135:3340 Hope to see you there! We kick for hacked weapons and ban for hacking. We also ban for voice over side chat and excessive racism/bigotry/douchebaggery. (There is a difference between s#!t talk and douchebaggery.) MOTD and this post are your only warning. Max vehicles, normal day/night, waypoints on, side chat on, crosshairs on, 3rd person on, map icons off, nameplates off. Server rotates between Chernarus and Lingor Island when we feel like a change. Camps/characters save to each map. Our website: http://quixoticfolly.com Our TS: ts.quixoticfolly.com Join us in a fun filled frag fest! P.S. We will not ban or server restart just because we got killed / camp raided. We ONLY ban for log confirmed hacking, voice over side chat, and excessive racism/bigotry/douchebaggery. So don't be a pussy and alt+F4, 'cuz we won't.

So all of these vehicles I can add to the spawns table of my database and they should spawn just like any other vehicle without editing the mission? Say if I were to unban a few vehicles the little bird for example, would players get the required data during the receiving mission file apon joining the game or would they have to download my changes and install it locally to their client?

It says that using hacked weapons and vehicles wont get me banned. Questions regarding how exactly to get unbanned will be ignored. Maybe not ''exactly'' but I just find this a reason to get ignored if I send a request. I think that, no matter what, you will not get unbanned. Global ban is a permanent ban. But I think if I write a request about this they will think its a story or something. I can't show them that I don't cheat.

Vehicles with a red hull, that will blow up after the slightest touch of a wall... oh wait.

As with every game out there, there are things that are looked down on. I am of the opinion that everything is valid so as long as it's not abused, and as such, I compiled a list of tips of things you can do to survive easier that are considered lowly to do by the community and therefore are often left in the dark, leaving many new players unaware of them. 1. Disabling post processing effects on the video options disables the blur caused by low blood, leaving you with a clear vision below 3000 blood (albeit desaturated) 2. setting high dynamic range to very high on video options, then setting gamma and brightness to maximum will allow you to see at pitch black night time without night vision goggles. 3. Recruit servers allow you to see the range to your crosshair point if you scroll your mousewheel while having a main and secondary weapon or while looking through binoculars with a main or side weapon. It will also describe the item you're looking at. There are some servers in which this is not available, it depends on the server settings. 4. peripheral vision simulation places a white orb on the screen edges indicating a living being nearby outside of screen vision range. Scoping in the thermal vision of the l85 will further enhance the detection of white orbs, allowing you to spot easier. this setting may be disabled on some servers. 5. old bikes and motorbikes use a different vehicle database, and every time you get out of them, they repair completely without the need of vehicle parts. 6. If you somehow obtain a radio, you have enabled hit markers, as each time you hit another player, he will call a blue on blue (friendly fire) on radio, allowing you to know if you hit him or not (this might be disabled in some servers. 7. loot spawns on designated piles if there is a player within 30 to 120 meters from it, and if there is nothing else in the pile, if you find a gigantic depot of trash you can pick everything up and fill a zombie with it, walk around for 10 minutes not closer than 30m and no farther than 120m to cycle the loot and obtain fresh new stuff. doesn't work for helicopter crash sites, and the loot spawn rate depends on server performance. CORRECTION: zombies spawn within 200m but loot only spawns if you approach to 120m. 8. low pine trees hide you from zombies, running into them will allow you to lose them easily. Similar thing happens when you enter a supermarket, as the entrance is covered with an invisible wall. As long as zombies can't see you and you're not making a lot of noise, you will lose them, running around a small building and losing sight of them seems to work equally. 9. Hero skinned players run 10% faster, and they will completely fill up half empty magazines on relog. 10. pressing P ingame shows you a playerlist, works in every server. 11. to access gear inside a vehicle, press m, then select units, then your name, then press on gear 12. pressing I ingame shows the server info and a scoreboard with zombie kill count, useful if you want to check your kill count without opening debug. some servers have scoreboard disabled. it does not show current players but rather a leaderboard, to see current players, #10 13. A server restart unflips all vehicles, an ATV will completely explode if flipped 180 degrees, but will remain as a container if flipped just 90 degrees. 14. Having a crappy PC will delay the rendering of road blocks and rubble in cities, allowing you to drive through a city safely at full speed. 15. you can press the respawn button during "setup completed, please wait..." 16. in order to remove a wire fence you need a toolbox and must look at the second stick at the right side of the front in which the original placer was looking to while placing the wire, if you manage to clip that stick inside a wall, the wire fence becomes unremovable. 17. a lot of wire fences will guarantee the creation of artifacting, allowing you to conceal yourself when running into the wire fence. 18. aborting right before hitting the ground if you are falling from a helicopter or a hacker who sent you up might be your chance to save your life. 19. DayZ commander allows you to track down people playing on servers by their in game name. Just go to the friends tab and add his/her name on it to track him/her down as soon as he/she joins a server. 20. reserved for steam overlay W key jamming, don't know the exact details on how it works, will need to research 21. smoke grenades are able to destroy buildings, supermarkets and churches are very weak and a couple smoke grenades will turn them into rubble, even better than barbwire, now loot can't even spawn. 22. a survivor or hero driving a vehicle will appear as a green orb and a bandit driving a vehicle will appear as a red orb instead of the normal white orb. 23. if someone spawns at the same position as a vehicle, the moment they move their mouse they will die immediately. 24. vehicle position is independent of vehicle gear, the moment the driver gets out of the vehicle, the position is saved as well as the status (fuel will reset to 0 upon restart) gear must be saved manually by using the save command 25. a tent on the ground can be picked up by multiple players at once, netting a tent for every player who picked it up, used to work for gutting animals, unfonfirmed on vehicle parts. 26. 3rd person camera can be used to peek around corners without being seen, simply hide on the end of a wall and look around on 3rd person. 27. fireplaces will eventually consume, putting a wood pile in will reavivate the flame.

Adding in more vehicles and 2 urals have spawned along with a SUV

there isnt no depth once you realize this dayz is no fun to play. basically you start out like wtf what great fun learn the ropes getting shitty guns and a rusty axe pull off a kill or two on your search for loot on bandits and think sweet ! then you find your first real good gun get your first vehicle and your like yeah man im on this now. then you learn the lie of the land where everything is dont need map and can get your basics very quickly . this is when the game goes down hill cause you realize its just a game of find a gun, water and food then rinse and repeat. once you had the vehicles the guns the camps there is nothing left. this is why dayz needs missions like wasteland mod and other things added in to keep things from getting stale like it does after a month of playing the game. the reason dayz was , is a success as it was fresh and every dived in very quickly . now ask how many of your friends if in groups play it at all or daily. litterally everyone i know stopped a month ago after hacking got so retarded . i find it funy that every excuse in this game is often down to the game being a "ALPHA" well when standalone comes out its going back to "ALPHA " haha a game that never breaks alpha !!!

I had the same, I was doing about 70 on an ATV with a friend on the back, crashed into a roadblock which hadn't rendered, and both died, and now my friends won't let me drive any of the vehicles we find :( But it's normally due to high ping or bandwidth for me!

Found this camp at the top North West corner of the map, we think it was a hackers camp due to the large supply of hacked guns. We blow up the two vehicles to teach them a lesson or at least slow them down a little :) All the tents where destroyed with the 2 cars (Shown in video). Please excuse his retardedness. Enjoy.

the exploit would be server hopping to find parts, this sounds more like if you kill someone in a different server with your weapon is cheating... to me it seems legit, i mean: you keep playing in different servers with a jerrycan or a rotor in your inventory, and you go from heli spawn to heli spawn until you find one. you fix the parts you have and serarch the next industrial area for the remaining parts you find them, finish to fix heli, fly away. what that guy is doing is just this above but with all the parts :-) having six helis is a shit like all those people who have vehicles camps in the woods, it's for that that i always search the north and west borders like a bitch to find camps. i played also in a private hive without helicopters( a message in the chat said it was because people is not able to hide stuff) and it was full of camps and hoarded vehicles. but the sudden sound of a chopper is priceless in this game

I know it's not balanced and its not intended to be but in many cases, people get the choppers and raid all of the camps and steal all of the vehicles on the map and take them away. They don't add nearly as much to the game as they take away. Like the way vegitation renders from the air, it's practically transperant. Not to mention the fact you can find all of the helicopter crashes on the map in under 20 minutes of a restart, the ability to parachute into places is ridiculous and once you've got a helicopter everything becomes waaaay to easy and there's nothing left to do. Once again, they take away much more than they add to the game

Hey Guys, Nice work with the server. Looking forward to getting nice and settled in. Quick question, are all the weapons and vehicles standard Dayz as per the wiki or are there some extra goodies that have made their way in legitimately? You mentioned the thermal AS50's already. If we find any thing not standard should we report/destroy. I'm all for keeping the server as intended. Thanks again.

DMR sucks man. If you want a light sniperrifle, go m24. Dmr should only be used at less than 400m, or at very still targets (or zeds). Don't bother to fire against moving targets, you will miss and then just leave. Don't fire against vehicles, its like trying to hurt a tank with a makarov, its uselsess. They just turn around and kill you. The only use of DMR is probably to hunt boars and zeds, or maybe scare away some looters trying to get your beans. *(1 dmr mag = 4 m24 mags)

I'd love it if you could plant them on people and vehicles... suicide attack incoming.

Can you hide vehicles outside the play area?

Added some new code to the server. You can now put objects eg a Bike into a car and you can also tow other vehicles.

The distance you can hide vehicles out of the play area is directly proportional to how gay you are.

You will know when you hit the end of the map, there is a black border and no grass/trees etc past that line, just infinite green rolling hills. Regardless, hiding it up in the middle of nowhere is no guarantee it won't be found since that's where everyone looks for vehicles/camps.

There are 3 airfields in Chernarus, but I wouldn't like to try landing a plane on any of them! An unarmed VTOL would be cool, but useless. (would still park it up for bragging rights) Civilian helicopters should be introduced though. The way it is now, there's always one group with a chopper, and it usually never sees the light of day because they're afraid to lose it! It would be better overall if more vehicles could be repaired, so that nobody could monopolize the transport on the map,

A friend snitching on his friend? *Facepalm* Are there any smart hackers? You know.. the ones that DON'T TP people or script in weapons or vehicles NOT in Day Z? Cause ones that just give themselves the best equipment doesn't necessarily ruin the game.

This depends on the server. Some private servers run a script which creates an invisible barrier that destroys you and your vehicle if you leave the map. Others run a script that cleans all the vehicles from outside the map at server restart.

i agree with some of the sentiments of the OP. I think this game has a really cool forumula that hopefully companies like bethesda will rip off of and make a game like this set in the fallout universe where its actually hard to surive and be a consistant world in which multiplayer can get down, + quests n such. but untill then we have to deal with this. To me this games genre is in its infancy theres some really cool stealable ideas this game has and its only a matter of time till some other company makes it great. i also played ultima online i was on one of the german shards, tho when i was playin it i didnt have a fkin clue what i was doin, id just get lost in the forest lol and get raped by a lizardman. this game lacks the force to drive the player to do something that isnt PvP, as its a sandbox game, except theres no sand just a mass of players on a lifeless map that spawns zombies without any goals except to, kill other players or log off from sheer boredom. the game requires some aspect that will motivate the player to do or achieve something other than repairing vehicles to horde in a forest or shooting people on a hill in elektro I did my first game of sniper hill today, i got this probably hacked in guy as50TWS it was pretty enjoyable tbh.

Yes, our server is still looking for people to fill certain roles. We have quite a few survivors who fly solo or band together with other survivors... There are a few mercenary types who have formed a clan along with our server's home clan BBF. This makes currently two clans on the server and we are looking for more! We could really use some bandit-oriented players/clans to make make our survivors a little more fearful when traveling about. Our members and community is ever growing with players who enjoy playing Day Z the hard way... No handicaps and no safe zones... No gimmicks and no easy buttons.... You want tons of vehicles so that earning one doesn't even feel like a accomplishment? Look elsewhere... Want safe zones so you can farm in peace? Look elsewhere... Want everyone to be carebears and come to your rescue for nothing? look elsewhere... Our server rewards those who enjoy a difficult survival challenge... We are not all heartless bandits and killers who shoot on sight... but we do not try to force people to play any certain way here. You want to be a bandit? be one... Just remember our policy here on this server... Every action has a consequence... Good or bad... You build a reputation here.. This is not some server you log into once and never come back to... This is home to many players now, and many of them have already made names for themselves as either trustworthy saviors or bloodthirsty killers... Mercs for hire, etc... So I invite all players who enjoy a realistic approach to Day Z through amping up the difficulty and throwing you into a harsh world with unforgiving settings to sign up with our community and join in the fun... Come make a name for yourself. And all our current players: Keep the feedback coming!

I'm pretty tired of putting items into a vehicle, and having to count or estimate how many item/weapon slots it has left, and if it overloads, having the items deleted or strewn over the ground. SOLUTION: Have player inventory on the right, and vehicle inventory on the left, showing how many item/weapon slots are availible, and what items are currently in those slots. Exactly like the player inventory, just for vehicles. Thankyou.

I have vehicles,guns, the shit
