If you remove the tractor with just the map tool, nothing will be there. A server retart will restore that same tractor unless you modify the Database spawn table, for something else to spawn at that grid ref, Certain vehicles do have a max #. I am not sure off the top of my head what they are and I am not totally certain on how it works. This is my first time admin'ing a server so I am learning as I go. You can move vehicles by editing the location in the data base, however they are not in the same format as in game cords are. Its theoretically possible to add any vehicle from Arma 1 & 2 as well as OA however to do this you would have to unban them from the dayz mod. To do that you would need to edit the mission file. If you were to do something like that, it would basically be your own mod and anyone who wants to play on your server would have to download that. I would suggest you look into rMod that is what I am reading up on now and it seems to be right what you are looking for.

Ok so while driving my bike I come across a minivan full of gear but no gas so I wait for about 10 mins and I see the owner running towards it I kill him, loots his jerry cans and I am off and thinking. Damn poor soul. Ok so Then I thought what if vehicles needed keys to start? They could like make drawers in some houses that has a key in them to the vehicle outside? and they can put in Hotwire kits in the game thats uncommon and you will like do a little mini game where you cut yellow and red connect and it starts. This could work rather nicely but also turn quite ugly.

Week 1: Man, this sucks. There are no vehicles because everyone hides them! Week 2: Awesome! We repaired a car! Better hide it in the woods so no one takes it!

Private Hive [100 Vehicles] Active Admins For some reason it will not let me edit the title of this post. Just figured it out, duh!

I have just started up a new private hive password protected server, the reason for this is to get away from everyone on the server having AS50 Rangefinders and NVG's I want a more legit style of play with no duping or hacking. I also want it to be a 'bandit' server meaning everyone on the server is a bandit and will shoot on sight; this will hopefully provide for a more interesting game as it will make surviving much more difficult you won't just be able to run around the map free from harm cause there will always be someone on the lookout to kill you and steal your gear. Me and a group o friends play as a 'team' and we believe if there is multiple teams on the server it will make for long, hard combat and rivalry will start to form making the game more enjoyable and more to play for in my opinion. I have the vehicles set to 30 and we only control 2 and no helicopter to give other people a chance. We play on veteran difficulty and it is a English based server. Side channel will be on but english speaking only and use of mic over the side channel is not aloud. It Is up 24/7 with very active admins. If you reply to this post, inbox me or add my skype (william.cullum) and tell me why you want to join, if you're on your own or in a team and then how long you've been playing (if you're a noob or not) then I can give you the password to the server however if someone comes on I haven't given the server password to they will be instantly banned. Thanks for reading and I hope to see some teams soon. William.

Yes, you can bag weapons. I realized I could never fix items being eaten when being moved into a bag/gear that had no room. So, I didn't want to have people losing weapons left and right by not knowing/remembering that limit. Further, I realized the main reason I wanted "no weapons in bags" was to prevent people from loading up with a sniper/assault/silenced (all 3 types) at once. With the sniper rifles I left in (CZ550 / M24) being VERY rare and the silencers I plan to add back in (MP5 SD / M9 SD) soon to be just as rare, I won't mind it. Ammo won't spawn in the wild for either (maybe the M9 SD, though), so a sniper rifle or silenced weapon isn't something you'd pick up unless you could bag it. Ammo will be too rare otherwise to use those weapons as your main gun. I think that's a happy compromise. Sniper rifles/silenced weapons will be left to be very rare spawns and you only get the clips that spawn with it. Ammo won't independently spawn for it outside of with the gun spawn. This should make people treat them as specialty guns vs. just carrying it as their primary 24/7. There are some, but I plan to re-do all vehicle spawn points in the future. There are lots of unclaimed vehicles all over the server right now. In upwards of 30 not counting bicycles For example: 6x ATV 3x Blue Vans 3x Motorcycles (just to name a few) They're out there, and all but one or two are unclaimed from the looks of it.

Vehicles in the server? Anyone able to find some? Considering that this is a really fresh server and hackers haven't teleported all the vehicles out of the map.. there should be some around the coast even, havent found any tho. Found heli crash site... nv goggels :) Also found a bug: When taking a backpack on ground, the one already on me disappeared. Instead, it should drop on the ground.

Hi, I'm just another player that get sick of getting killed by hackers in dayz. So I decided to come here and search for some notable private hive servers to have fun. However, it seems like I am unable to find your server from the ingame filter and in dayz commander as well. So just to double check again, the server name is Private Hive [60+ Vehicles] Active Admins right?

everything is in running/working order with the hive, battleye etc.. the server is privately run and owned by 3 of our members that monitor it constantly to ensure the best gaming for anyone and everyone that is on the server. server restarts 3 times per day (not sure of the specific restart times will have to check on that again) our code of conduct for the server is as follows. 1. Absolutely NO HACKING/SCRIPTING 2. Absolutely NO DUPING (duping tents will clutter the database, if this becomes a problem we will wipe the db and everyone will start from scratch. We will know who has done it and will tell everyone who caused the db wipe so don't be that guy!) 3. Please do not ask Goober or Jack Cr0w to spawn you items or vehicles because it will never happen. 4. Send any reports regarding glitches, suspicion of hacking/duping, or douchebaggary to [email protected] 5. Suggestions are very much welcome, please send to [email protected] 6. Server admins have the right to kick and or ban anyone breaking the above

***AUTOMATED DATABASE MAINTENANCE*** Another step to combat hackers/scripters, we are running automated database maintenance. Meaning every 30 minutes before a backup is performed, any survivor or vehicle/tent carrying illegal gear will be removed from the database. The survivor will have to respawn on the beach with default gear and the vehicles will respawn at their default locations. If you find gear you think may be illegal, please don't pick it up. Contact an admin for confirmation. Thanks.

Most private hives can be joined like any other server. The only difference is that some of them may have some minor code changes (such as more vehicles, always daytime, or just bug fixes) and that the character data is not saved onto the main public hives (in other words, you have a seperate character just for that server). As far as scripters go, they're still out there. Public, private, it doesn't really matter anymore. Seems the script kiddies are persistent. I just wish they'd go back to CoD and stop ruining the Arma 2 games.

I think people would just get the shits with vehicles even more and end up blowing the vehicle up so no one gets any of the spoils inside.

Why are vehicles so critical? Why is the ural so "useful" ? What would you do if you had a vehicle??

decreasing fuel capacity does nothing, vehicles will be less usefull (especially the awesome blue partyvan) and will only be used as mobile camps Just make more vehicles, add stamina to players, increadse the spawn amount on repairing stuff, problem solved, people actually need vehicles now, will drive around WAY more often and hoarding becomes superfluid people will also stop making camps just at the border of the map, imagine you'd only be able to run about a kilometer and need to rest 10 minutes to be able to run again, or you walk the whole time, imagine one guy gets to your camp 5km away from anything, blows everything up and you all have a good time walking back to where shit actually is add an extreme amount of low-value cars, with maybe 10 item and 1 weapon slot, not more, make them extremely easy to be wrecked, add 20 bikes(which will now also drain stamina) and you're good to go sadly this will never happen, because everything goes to the standalone now

I noticed, if your in the map tool, and look at the list of vehicles spawned. Put a check mark next to each vehicle (or tent!) you want to delete and click sumbit at the bottom of the screen. You'll have to do this each time your run the DayZtool though, but its the only way to keep the vehicles and limit the amount of choppers on the map. We had the same issues, and I played around for a bit and found this. Or another thing you could do is go into PHPmyAdmin and remove a couple heli's from the Database under spawns, however keep in mind removing it will keep it from spawning in that location in the future. I personally think its better to have the heli's and such spawning in different places so I used the first method to control how many we have on the server.

Hello, folks. My name is Chris and I have been playing Dayz for about 4 days now. I bought ArmA specifically for this mod and have no intention of ever playing the ArmA standalone. That said, I guess I lack a lot of the "game experience" that players who've played ArmA extensively must have. However, I pick games up VERY fast, and have played many FPS/MMO games over the last 10 years - 100% of the time in a clan setting. My point? I work well with others and I've never found a game I wasn't good at. The game has everything I could want, but the only element that it's missing is company. I've never played a PC game that wasn't made all the more fun with other players around. I am not fussed as to whether you are Bandits or Survivors, but please don't take this as a demonstration of lack of focus. I know I'd enjoy either play style. The only thing I'm not interested in is sniping fresh spawns in Cherno "for the lulz" and other such activity. I am quite eager to try robbing people, not killing them, but forcing them to down gear, take what we need to survive and letting them go on their merry way. I don't want to steal their pistol when the one I have is better and has more ammo. A Bandit with a little humanity left, if you will. On the other hand, I am happy to scavenge and scrounge, to help others, and fire only when fired upon, etc. I'm 28, have Skype, Teamspeak and Vent. No steam account. At least not one that I can remember the password for. I work fairly regular hours and have weekends off with 1-3 evening shifts a week. If anyone or group is happy to take me under their wing, show me just how deep this game can be - camps, vehicles, etc. - then 100% commitment from myself shall be your payment. PM me. Regards, Chris. **EDIT** Also posting this in Bandit forum.

You don't need a vehicle other than a bike. Bikes are boss (push bikes not m/bikes). It doesn't take that long to cross the map on foot anyway and using vehicles is just giving yourself away (or your camp). We ditched using vehicles on out server a while back (we still have a couple and we have a no vehicle hording rule). Personally I'd just have us all outfitted with push bikes. Can't wait to set up an ambush on a car with a couple of MG's just for the shits.

I had only legit items on me while driving a vehicle. As soon as i pressed "ESC" I was kicked from the game. I tested this with several vehicles and was kicked as well. Some of the players on our server complained they lost everything in their inventory when they were kicked inside a vehicle and pressed escape. They spawned again at the same spot, but their inventory as well as vehicle was gone... Any ideas? Should I just remove all the horns from the list, since it is not a "leathal" weapons?

I hear ya. Unfortunately I feel standalone won't solve all problems. It's very sad though as I try to make server as fun for everybody as possible to discourage cheating. I even increased vehicle spawns and chance of them having repaired parts etc just so people would'nt be tempted to spawn in vehicles and whatnot. Plus with the map Lingor there is PLENTY of good weapons around. I dunno I feel once a hacker always a hacker. I even tried to reason with one the other night and he STILL hacked basically right after I warned him (this was after a script was used as well). It's really a bummer because I want my server to grow in popularity, and I feel everytime someone is doing well, it's just another hacker abusing the server to get ahead. Hurts not only fun but population and growth of game.

So I've been playing Fallujah for a couple days now and I'm hearing all of this jazz about how many vehicles and stuff there are on the map. I've even seen screenshots with a plane, 2 helos and like 5 cars. Yet I haven't found any vehicles besides a glitched out Chinook and a blown up pickup truck, does anyone have any specific locations where vehicles spawn? I know it should be up to me to find this stuff but I'm not gettin any results on my own.

I think the vehicles are gone into the northern forests on 90% of the servers. I once actually found a bus in Stary Sobor, too bad one guy was ready to ambush me soon as he heard me go in the bus (It wasn't his bus, since it was still half-broken with no gas.)

Yeah, I've been playing here too and it's awesome, haven't seen any hackers. At some point we had a load of vehicles that it got a little boring, but now all three teams have a few vehicles so none of them is too overpowered. (And one day we will have your chopper!)
