My vehicles still aren't saving upon server restarts, have losts 2 trucks, UAZ, Ural over the past week all filled with guns every time.. anyone know when this will be fixed? :/

We got hacked twice this weekend and it looks like all our vehicles have disappeared.. is that your own server you experienced this shit on? Me and my friend similarly spend a whole fuckin' weekend fixing two vehicles and I'm just wondering if you know of any other locations hackers might like to teleport all that stuff? Or if its just best to wait the 7 days is it for respawns?

I was told that the DayZ Team is not "giving" vehicles to servers with a new ID. Why is that? I want vehicles in my server, just like the rest >:(

Btw people if you come on here and bitch about DayZLingor US420 East I am gonna rage. I am Central, I do not have any connection to them and I have received several messages about their server. As far as I know they don't even have a post on here. This server is probably going to receive a name change to avoid the bad feedback coming in from the other server. I will make note of the new name on here, in the server and on dayzblissus.enjin.com several days before the change occurs. Server is back online, unfortunetely character data was lost due to a bad update which changed the database format. All vehicles and tents should still exist.

Hello! im trying to figure out how to restart my server the "soft way" im trying to restart my server every now and then. But when i do all the vehicles spawn back to their spawn places and all the tents gets deleted. How do you other guys restart your server`?

Don't post in the forums if you cannot have a real discussion with people. You completely ignored the points that was made in regards to how your perceived solution would fail to do anything save removing everything that legit players have earned. Greed? Are you serious? If you cannot respond to actual feedback in any other way than insults then perhaps you need to go and cool off before actually attempting to make a topic in the future, it's not going to win you any victory points, so to speak, to your argument if this is all you can muster up as a counter-argument to a correct assessment of what the result of your fix would be. Until the loopholes that the hackers use to spawn gear and vehicles are plugged (sadly with a modified engine and not doable with a patch) there will be no point to any wipes but to waste work time for the people in charge of the hive. Please take a step back and think a bit before insulting people you don't know for no reason at all. Edit: Removed double quote, sorry guys.

Im confuesed, how did you know the vehicles would be there if they were teleported somewhere?

The patch is decent, ill take wall zombies over broken vehicles and graphic bugs.

my tents are still not saving is this also like the vehicles with ids over 10000 or am i just very unlucky or someone ran it over ?

These last couple days I've been keeping a log of my movements across a particular server on a map. It looks like this: Where I've been and had eyes on I airbrush blue. As you can see I started in the South-West and ran up the side of the map. A few of the blue paths are from memory though. The major thing that I've omitted in case somebody identifies the server and removes them are the tents/camps that I've found along the way which I mark with a coloured square depending on the value of loot inside. I've found roughly 7 tents with high quality loot, another 3 with low quality loot and about 12 abandoned tents. Slightly disappointed with those results considering the time I've put in but making a permanent record like this does have advantages: Regear faster after a respawn Quicker access to consumables in an emergency Interpolating other players travel routes helps decide the best place to put my camp Notice vehicle/camp location patterns which may transfer to other servers This is my favourite server and with the fix to tents and vehicles I'd like to make it my home. Unfortunately I lost my offroad pickup and other vehicle on the night that the patch came out so this running about has been primarily looking for a new vehicle. I haven't seen any yet, so I'm beginning to think either a scripter teleported them all to an island/the sea or they are being hoarded off map. It's taking forever running about on foot. Does anybody else keep a log like this? Also has anybody got any suggestions on where I should look next? (that isn't off map, fuck doing that on foot)

The Idea itself is good, but how do you want to destroy these vehicles? You would need a M132 launcher. In addition you could just roll around and kill everything in your line of sight. if they add more anti tank weapons in the game it would be worth thinking of.

when i was there last night there was only the bus left for vehicles and we took that, banned now, shouldve driven over their tents.

I'd really like to see a lot of the vehicles that don't appear in DayZ, but the real issue is it would be just plain unfair. Explosives in DayZ are rare and anyone with an armored vehicle could just roam around running over people and destroying everything with little to no resistance. It would take a lot of AS50 rounds to destroy one of those things, and chances are you won't have enough ordinance to stop them. I'd like to see maybe one of the medevac variants appear, as they have no weaponry and would only serve as an armored vehicle. Down one step further, I'd even be happy to see Humvees with armor and/or a machine gun as those are vulnerable to small arms fire and it wouldn't be overpowered.

So I've been playing the ARMA II campaign, and I'm on the 4th mission (Manhattan) In this mission, you get a bunch of transport vehicles at your disposal, including a LAV-25 and an AAV. Pretty much, the mission objective is to go around the northeast side of Chernarus and find these terrorist camps. Then you roll in with your big scary tanks and fuck bishes up. for those of you who don't know, the LAV is the one that resembles a light tank with a smaller cannon and it rolls around on 8 wheels. The AAV is a big steel box on treads with a little turret on top. Both of these are heavily armored, can knock down trees with ease, and can carry a large amount of people So I thought that it could be a pretty good addition to the game, but only if it was insanely hard to repair and always spawned completely broken. to fully repair a LAV, you would need: 2 Engine Parts 30 Scrap metal 8 Wheels 3 fuel tank parts 30 Jerry cans It would also only spawn at one location, and it would not be a garunteed spawn To fully repair an AAV, you would need: 4 engine parts 50 Scrap metal 2 treads (new item, would be as rare as engines) 12 Wheels 1 Fuel tank parts 40 Jerry cans same as above, one spawn, not garunteed Also, Both vehicles would be Amphibious In terms of ammo, the explosive ammo would be found as barracks loot, take up 3 spaces, and be as rare as a DMR The machine gun ammo would just be M240 mags Attached are pictures of a LAV and an AAV

So: 1) Make more car spawns. Why Hilux is only at some barns? Why tractors (!) are so rare (they should spawn in every field). Civilian cars should be found in some large garages and in the roads, some dirt roads should have atv's and bikes. 2) Make zombies more dangerous for cars. Now if you are sitting in the car, they can't hit you. Let them break windows and try to grab you through them, if a zombie has crawled onto the front of your car - he can grab you and keep biting until someone shoots it off. Maybe they should be able to throw at the car and hang on it until smashed/shot off. If a car is static, zeds can flip it (of course there are should be several of them trying to do this). They should be able to throw you off a bike/ATV and with little chance, draw out of the car. 3) How a zombie apoc (even 5 years before) could harm cars? They should just need some minor repairing, mostly the hull. It should require several scrap metal. Wheels - only 1-2 absent. Engine and fueltank should be yellow. Glasses totally absent or partially broken. 4) Bullets should do more serious harm to the car. They should easily break the engine/fuel, not destroy the wheels but pop them, so the car is really HARD to steer (now pretty easy, to compare even with gta on psp). 5) Maybe there should be more car parts (cooling system, motor oil serving system, starter etc.). They should be in middle/good condition when the car spawns but easily damaged by serious crashes and bullets. 6) Better car physics (ATV hit by lada flies vertically up for 30-40 meters, WTF?!). 7) Mounted additional defence and guns (vary for every car) 8) Shooting from the car (sidearms only) 9) Some lone barns/hangars/garages locked up (breaking up may vary, from crowbar opening to powering up the doors w/ generator. Containing a fully repaired vehicle inside (what it is depends from the garage's defences). 10) Finally, fixing the ATV's that fly like hell on every bridge or non-smooth piece of landscape Thanks for your time!

it might have been like that I only started even looking for vehicles in 1.7.2.5 so it might have been changed but yes we had a ural and a hatchback we where able to fill up with what the wiki said its item max was,tents are like that too. hope this helps =)

This is my newest server so far, it comes with a custom loadout,custom vehicle spawns and custom buildings in some areas! come join now and find the many helicopters that are already around the coast and inland!, i hope to see you in the server today or sometime later ;) "also many --> :beans: :beans: :beans: not alot of --> :emptycan: :emptycan: :emptycan: " ^_^ SERVER NAME: Coast Private Server (Many Events) 115 Vehicles+Custom Spawns 1.7.2.6

Well, you could go fix a vehicle but since 2.6 was released i've just been seeing vehicles teleported to areas where nobody can get them. You're essentially just screaming "come here scripters". Anyway, you could also get a rifle and specifically hunt people with the bandit nameplate. Give out free med supplies to people who need them, or join the medics of the wasteland. You could become a bandit (highly frowned upon). Get satchels, blow up important buildings in elektro/cherno. Trol cherno/elektro by putting barbed wire and tank traps around the perimeter of the entire city. Just keep helping the new spawns who don't have bandit skins.

Or maybe more vehicles.

Yeah, vehicles saving is great... when your server has vehicles (all servers with instance ID's on 1.7.2.6 of over 10,000 are not so lucky my friend :( )

true hehe, and i dont really care either, its more fun tbh. :) on the plus side: we dont have a million vehicles hidden anymore hehe.

Use this to find out what a vehicle needs to be repaired and how much it can carry: http://dayzdb.com/database/vehicles Also, vehicles/tents do not follow you from server to server so if you place a tent in US 1, and then log into US 2, it will not be there.

1. Tents & vehicles will only be on server where you found the vchicle/placed the tent. So the one where you have found the tractor. 2. Tractor got : 50 items slots (Not for 50 items but for items taking up a total of 50 slots) , 3 weapon slots (3 rifles or 2 rifles + 1 handgun or 1 rifle and 2 handguns etc.) 2 backpack slots (Items in the backpack dosent count towards the 50 item slots. you can put in 2 full backpacks) for more info about the tractor visit http://www.dayzwiki.com/wiki/Tractor

They will be on the server that you found them on only. They do not follow you. Tents will only on the server that you place it. Look at this Link it will help you http://dayz.wikia.com/wiki/Vehicles

Hello, I started playing DayZ since the last patch. I heard about cars and tents not saving. So I never bothered with them. But since the new patch I have set out to fined a tent to store stuff I fined. But I can't for the life of me fined a tent yet in the last patch I couldn't stop falling over the bloody things. So anyhow I found a tractor. Plenty of fuel but broken windows a bad engine. So I repaired the engine and set of to fined a nice hiding spot. I found one and parked the tractor up. I put most of my loot. I have saved the tractor and come of DayZ for a little bit. My question is do vehicles and tents follow me from server to server or do I have to keep joining the server I found it on? Thanks. P.S How many guns and items can I fit in this tractor?
