My new server (Based in the US) has been up for a couple weeks and im looking to get more players on it! It has 170+ vehicles and 3+ helicopters, Server gets reset every day and is monitored closely. Player cap is 40. Server does not show up in dayz commander or six launcher. So you will have to search throught the "in game" filter. Just search "like a sir".

You, the client, spawn medboxes when you're near a hospital. Same for backpacks. Backpacks are not items, they are "vehicles" - they are created via createVehicle. Perfectly normal loot spawn and player initialization what you're seeing there...

my brother and i have a camp setup on 316. the server restarted twice on the 18th and now all our tents and the vehicles we had all disappeared. kind of a pisser. whens the next restart going to be? and if that doesn't fix it. any compensations for what was lost?

It should be the same with vehicles, tons of them everywhere..But fuel will be worth its weight in gold...or blood. Same as weaponry, guns gun guns gun guns everywhere, on dead bodies, hanging on military zombies, shoved in outhouses, in barracks etc. Its ammo that should be rare, forcing you to thing before wasting a precious bullet to kill some unarmed asshole or that zombie that refuses to leave you alone. Also realistic inventory and handling of guns would be nice, but I'm certain thats going to happen in the stand alone.

Yeah, make vehicles in good condition more common. But reduce about of gas. Like make each one have a certain amount of gas in each gas station. I doubt everyone in Chenarus had broken down cars and an infinite amount of gas.

Firstly, the Clan itself is great, community was fun and everything was seemingly great. Only problem is the server admin The name is ZombieHords, when I was apart of that clan we playing on a fervently hacked server we finally called it quits and decided on renting out own private hive. It was all well and good until one of the server admins started hacking in guns, ammo, gear and vehicles for player. Now the other Server admin, was pissed at this, because the only way we were getting in hacked in gear is if we pay a nominal fee, "Server upkeep" he keeps calling it. That I don't mind at all because it keeps the server running. The gear the Admin scripts in doesn't save on a restart so we are re spawned in our gear, which would be nice if he would actually spawn in our gear the day he says he is, not a week later. Well the community grew and with it came more responsibility for the Admin. Let's just skip to this mornings wonderful blunder from our Admin. We, as in we I mean my own team, were apparently the best because of what our admin told us, the entirety of complaints were directed towards us from the rest of the community. Now, we find in a complete hacked in camp totaling three ammo boxes full of everything and about 20 tents full of, again, everything you can get from the arma game. We bring it to the Admins attention and guess what happens, this is the best part. WE GET KICKED OFF THE SERVER FOR HACKING. So I get into chat with our admin and we're discussing what happened and his entire point of view, as he loved to reciprocate was; "I'm under a lot of stress because all this petty bullshit is coming t me." Derp, you chose to be the server admin, you chose the responsibility and chose to deal with the bullshit, it's called your job, not your excuse. Another point he tried to make was: "You guys were hacking because one of your members walked to the hacker camp in a straight line." He was kicked from the server because he went back to the camp that we were exactly at the night before in a firefight with the camp's team. Read that again, I swear to god word for word that's what he said. Please tell me that makes any kind of logical sense. Finally he wants to try the "I found all this gear in your pack so it's hacked and you're hackers." I totally forgot it's impossible to actually go out in DayZ and find equipment and store it, so sorry. Yes, we did take some of the hacked in gear so we can show him the evidence. Nope, he didn't care we were the hackers. ad we were kicked, and he doesn't want to listen because he doesn't care as a Clan leader and a server admin. Now to add on to this the server admin finally gets his bunched up panties out of his ass and calms down and says this to my friend, me listening in the background. 'It wasn't a hacked in camp from another player, I hacked in all this gear, you guys (us) fully knew what was happening and still stole the hacked in gear, and me, not being in game at the time but in the Raidcall (voip) is a hacker sympathizer and is equally being kicked. Let me reiterate just in case you guys missed something: We find a hacker camp, made by the server admin, unknowing it was made by the server admin, took the gear to show it to the admin to find out who hacked in the gear, was accused of hacking in the weapons themselves and afterwards accused of stealing hacked gear and kicked out of the server for being a hacker sympathizer. So guys, if you want to spend time and money dealing with an immature admin who likes to sweep his mess under the rug so he doesn't have to deal with it and call it doing his job. Please by all means, ZombieHords is the best place to go.

In reality, wouldn't gas be the rarer resource rather than actual vehicles? This has always bothered me. Maybe make it more "Mad Max-like"? I think it would add a whole new challenge to the game!

- The two camps are neutral. As mentioned you can NOT attack the other camp, when you see someone from the other camp consider him neutral. - Why would you kill people from your own camp??? They are your allies. It's a RPG server so act like you would in real-life, I wouldn't should other people but befriend them so I have help against zombies and protection. - When someone has a flashlight equiped he can't shoot you in the first place, when he has a main gun you see it on his back even with a flashlight equiped. when he only has a handgun and equiped his flashlight he can't immediatly switch to his handgun either. - The incentive to leave ur camp is to find one of the other 70 vehicles still on the map and reinforce your camp, getting fuel and other supplies. When we have more people we will implement capture/defending of cities aswell.

Hey guys, I took a bit of a break from DayZ now that college started again, but I was just wondering if anyone knew if the Tent/Vehicle not saving on server restart-bug has been patched yet? Do the tents still revert to their past-patches contents, and is the whole "spawn on coast whenever you log in to a different server" thing fixed?

Removal of the 50 cals has been discussed over and over, no one has ever provided a good reason for keeping then in. Alt+f4 is not a reason, vehicles are not a reason. There are other weapons much better suited to dayz within arma 2, rarity is not a solution, it's about what is appropriate for the game.

I hadn't seen a thread like this yet, and I really don't care if someone else already posted something similar. EDIT - Actually, I have 3-4 stories that I'd like to tell and just haven't had time to type up yet. I'll let you know ahead of time so you can reject them if they're too similar to anything that's been posted. In the past couple dayz, I've experienced: A zombie swimming through the air about 20 meters up, over my camp An invincible hacker driving a tractor at over 100 kph and running over my base and blowing up my vehicles while my whole group watched in despair A head on collision on the coastal road, me on an ATV and the other guy in a military offroad. Can you say 'ouch'? A car jacking, followed by a bicycle chase all the way across the map and ending with a reverse car jacking almost 30 minutes later. So please, let me know whether or not to write up the accounts of these stories, I would hate to bore you.

So I was on a private hive with the wife the other night. We were scavenging around for about 45 minutes and came upon a field of vehicles by the factory in Cherno. Boats, on dry land. fully-repaired vehicles, fully-fueled. Definite hacker presence. We shuffle on past and continue looking for tools and supplies. Then, the hacker started getting cute. He would teleport in by people and kill them. Sidechat was lit up with the typical "ermagerd hacker" cries. Then it was our turn. He teleported in behind us, and we ran. He started firing with a suppressed M4. Couldn't hit us. He emptied two mags trying. I started talking smack in sidechat about how he can't shoot. He got madder, teleported behind us again, same shuffle. After two attempts, he finally got us. I gave him so much shit about it he tried to make us his personal bitches. I spawned, he teleported next to me. I'd run circles around him as he tried to kill me unsuccessfully, until he'd finally get me through sheer brute force of attempts. I'd spawn, he'd do it again. Some of the funnier moments: * He spawned a 4x4 and tried to run me over with it, but missed me and drove it off the pier at Cherno. * He tried to kill me with a Bizon. Given his poor marksmanship, this was HILARIOUS. * He tried to kill me with grenades. He missed twice, and with his third killed himself. After this, he turned God Mode on. * He tried unsuccessfully to kill me with a sniper rifle of some kind from about 100m. I was standing at the end of a pier (waiting for him), and just sidestepping before he'd shoot. He gave up and tossed a satchel charge on the pier to kill me. I turned him into such a laughing stock in sidechat that others joined. Nobody was mad anymore about the hacker, we were all just laughing at him and making humorous speculations about his home life. People were announcing in sidechat when they respawned, and arguing over whose turn it was to be killed by him. This went on for a good 90 minutes. I eventually had to quit out because I had work this morning and couldn't be up all night.

Differences in Lingor Island Can place military flashlight on shoulder and use it while still wielding a weapon.(do not attempt, most servers will kick you for scripting) Can refuel a car at a gas station simply by parking near the pumps. DMR sniper rifle is zero-able. DMR loses ability to work with Night Vision. New skins. (i.e. Bandit skin back - You will lose your ghillie suit if you kill someone and log back in.) Humanity system bug - If you're at 0 long enough, you lose your backpack completely. Many more vehicles.

So you want .50's out, but you want vehicles to stay? You still don't get it. In real life, military weapons are both more common AND more reliable than civilian weapons. In the scenario at hand, there would be lots of mil weapons out and about, because they were being employed against the infected, AND their owners got killed or infected themselves. If you are NOT trolling (doubt it), give it some thought about what YOU would see in YOUR neighborhood post infection. You want Romero weapons in a post Romero world-doesn't work. Maybe you can find someone to make a zombie mod set in '58. Short of that, the weapons in this mod, as they are (discounting duping and hacking in extra stuff) is pretty close to how it would be. The only way they would NOT be in circulation would be if the military had not been overrun and was still operating with command and control. And take you hacking comment and stick it somewhere uncomfortable, m'kay?

Saving a vehicle or tent will set it & its inventory to that position, until it is moved or destroyed by another player. A server restart will re-set all vehicles/tents to their last save location + last save inventory.

the tents still dont work only vehicles where fixed,BUT after ever server restart vehicles have NO gas.

Hi all, I'm going to use my Vilayer 40-slot Takistan Private mod, which is password protected, for RPG (Role Playing). This basically means for now there are 2 'camps / safe-zones', basically places where you are NOT allowed to shoot other players. I might decide to create more safe-zones depending on the need. The first camp is situated at the north airfield and the 2nd one is the south airfield. Each camp has a small area between the hangars where some sandbags were placed so you can be somewhat safe from zombies, be aware though zombies sometimes run through the sandbags so be carefull at any times. These areas also have 6 tents for now with basic medical supplies (bandges, epinephrine, painkillers and morphine) also food and drinks and some jerrycans. There is not much so it's up to you guys to gather more supplies. If you need anything like weapons, food, ammo or anything else you might consider trading with someone from the other camp, they might have what you need. There are also some vehicles present at both camps for you to use, these include a bus, a humvee and helicopters. There are in total 80 vehicles on the whole map, the ones on the map are free for all (see rules below). I will be at the south camp which is the smallest because it has only 2 military barracks. The north camp will be for new people because it has 11 military barracks so easy to get geared up fast and gather supplies. The south camp has a few more vehicles for now to compensate for the fewer military barracks. Once both camps are properly equipped and have some members we can start with some more RPG-elements like, capturing/defending cities, trading, establishing smaller camps to capture/defend and so on. The server has a private hive so no server hopping and everyone starts fresh. To obtain the password you must be registered at www.frak-clan.com and send an e-mail to [email protected] (checked daily). There are some rules you have to obey if you want to join this private server. RULES: - NO killing in the safe-zones and no stealing supplies / vehicles that are in the safe-zones. No farming either if it isn't your safe-zone / camp. - If someone is a "fresh spawn" meaning just new to the server or just died you are NOT allowed to kill him. Unless he attacks you. - When a vehicle is OUTSIDE the safe-zone it is considered free-for-all. - The Ural-fuel is considered a NEUTRAL vehicle and can NOT be fired upon under ANY circumstance. It will be kept by me in the south-camp and will be used for trading and refueling both camps. I will come ONCE a day to the north camp to fuel up the bigger vehicles. I or anybody else from my camp will NOT use it to raid to maintain it's neutrality. - You will be assigned to a camp so that will be your safe-zone. This is to make sure that the camps have equal people. - DO NOT use vehicles (i.e. planes or helicopters) if you can not use them properly. The private mod is not for testing out vehicles as this would ruin the purpose of RPG for others who can use them. If you want to fly a helicopter then learn how to in the Armory from Arma2: Combined Operations. - This is an RPG-server so try to act like you would in real-life and do not go camp a city to kill other players. There are regular servers where you can do that. - No back-stabbing when trading is initiated. This will be announced in side-chat when a trade is initiated. - You are encouraged but not required to install TeamSpeak 3 on your computer. You can also use side-chat in-game to communicate. There is a channel for each camp on TeamSpeak to ensure privacy of the camps. There will also be a "neutral" channel to communicate between camps. - Try to build a good team with the camp you are assigned to, don't just take supplies but contribute aswell. Afterall that's what this RPG server was ment for. - People assigned to the South-Camp will need to put [sC] before their name and people from North- Camp [NC] - NO hacking or scripting allowed. This server is Battleye protected and has Vilayer anti-cheat. - Minimum age requirement is 18 !! - Make sure you read the server's messages of the day as we might add new rules and will post a message there then. That's it for now. I hope many people will join this server as I'm sure it's a fun concept. greets, Neomale

I stopped playing like a month ago. It wasn't because of hacking or anything, I've just become bored of it all. I've gotten all the high end gear, vehicles, etc. and I know all the spots on the map, so there's not really anything new to try out. I'll still be buying the standalone when it comes out, who knows, maybe rocket will add some more to the game that will keep me interested.

i think they fucked up the setting that controls how long things stay where they are left before they reset. i left a bunch of vehicles and many full tents on a server alone for 2 days. when i came back they were gone. it should be 7 days before they de-spawn, but i think it is 1 day now by accident.

That's in Arma, it's not enabled in DayZ (apart from vehicles and your profile).

Hello folks. Just want to introduce our new Takistan server, which will be our replacement server for DK100 that is currently running on the official hive. The server is running on Vilayer's hive and using their own anti-cheat engine. I'm told this prevents teleporting and weapons creation, but don't quote me on that (considering how fast things change heh). Right now we have 30 vehicles activated, but can easily add in more if we feel the need. Let's see how it works out for now. The server currently has 4 admins who will be playing on the server on a regular basis. You can always contact us at [email protected] if you need to contact us, or you can try our Teamspeak server at ts3.doomdns.org:9373 Looking forward to see you there! Server IP and Port: 94.242.227.186:2372

So we found the Ural truck on the rooftop of the hotel in Cherno with the helo. We were able to land on the roof, get in the cab of the truck, and start the engine, but it needed tires. We destroyed it with the chopper machine guns, but it respawned back onto the roof of the hotel upon server restart. We decided to drive it off the roof. We collected all the parts needed and drove ramming speed off the side of the building. Unfortunately, the truck somehow floated up back to the rooftop and became high centered on the railing. My guess is a hacker placed the vehicle there as alot of other vehicles are missing on the map and server. Is there any way to get this thing down or have it respawn in its original location? Also, since so many vehicles are missing, is there a master reset? Server US1534

I will be doing a live stream of DayZ this Saturday at 8pm GMT. The 'clans' plan is to get vehicles, recruit 'noobs' in cherno and then get parts to repair a heli Idea of this stream is just so new players or potential players can see how DayZ is. http://www.justin.tv/acesouthall Follow and stay tuned.

Hi, A friend an myself were fedup with all the hackers so we got our own server. I set everything up like i was told in the email but, there are no vehicles and know i am wondering on how to enbale or add them, cause i dont think that ppl would want too play on a server without any, as soon everything is up and running il post the server date here. "if u need any information, just ask"
