Yes I am "Cons -Can't use vehicles, weapons or tools."

I run a Vilayer server, and have yet to see URAL. The V3S spawns in a hanger on the Souther Airfield in Calamar and somewhere else as well. As far as I know the URAL is possible but has a very low chance compared to the rest of the vehicles. This is however based on Lingor Island. Havent run much with the Chernarus Private Hive yet.

Yeah my group doesn't really care we might not be on 24/7 as we (no offense to your group as this is probably going to sound rude as hell) want a chance at vehicles, and odds are (once again no offense to you guys) you guys have most of the vehicles on the server, but yeah it was an awesome night.

Vilayer support is INCREDIBLE. I don't know any other server hosts that will sit down and talk to you themselves. I've gotten to talk to Lee over voice SEVERAL times. Their servers are stable and virtually Lag free. The problems that do arise are dealt with relatively quickly, and at least for me have been communicated efficiently. And on top of all of this he is working on fixing what the DayZ Dev's broke. Tents and Vehicles have been working, load times are near instantaneous, my server is full every night. 1.7.2.6 as far as the official hive is concerned for me is too little too late. BOTH US 450 and US 2740 are going down at the end of the month as I am no longer paying for servers I can't properly admin. Run with a AS50 TWS on my server and get caught you get warned, then banned. I have played with the weapon myself, 900m shots through the fog when another regular AS50 cant even see past the 600 mark, nothing even close to fair about that. Ghosting and get caught? Banned. That shit is not cool. But this isn't the point of the thread. The point is that I am VERY happy with Vilayer, I am seriously considering upgrading from a managed DayZPackage server to a dedicated box so I can run a Lingor and Chernarus, and a Takistan when they have it ready to go.

Vehicles now save OK, BUT, they lose all fuel after a server restart :( Debug monitor breaks the indicators, so only use it to check kills etc. Artifacts are gone.

The boats spawn on land due to the vehicles not saving. Some vehicles would turn into others when restarted eg, ATV - PBX, Blue Ural - UAZ, Flame Motor bike - Tractor, Huey - Tractor. So yeah this should be fixed.

Play With Six as well anyway, it's not the promise-land I was promised (mindblow.gif) there are more enterable buildings, but honestly that just seems to make the game more tedious as you search through all the crap loot. it doesn't help that there's so much makarov ammo, and so many items use that same green bag model there's no dead soldiers, so none of those artifacts, but I still get artifacts from barbed wire zombies seem more prone to walk/hit through walls, and get stuck in the floor. a lot of the loot seems to be kinda under the floor as well I have mixed feelings about side chat... the fps seem more inconsistent. on average it's better than Chernarus. probably because on average there's less trees, grass, etc being rendered. but when it drops, it's bad. I have my settings so I never went under 30fps on Chernarus, but on Lingor I dip to the low 20's and even into the teens. it seems to be directly graphics related, since when I look straight at the ground or sky my fps magically returns (unlike AI and server issues that affect fps) ambient sounds that sound like doors opening, someone walking, and distant vehicles :mad: but it is fun exploring a new map :)

Server is being attacked daily by hackers either teleporting players or killing them! I'm running one of vilayers private servers and when looking in logs can only see people hacking in weapons and vehicles. Any help would be greatly appreciated! Gogster been pm'ing you but your inbox is full.

I had it and I like it more than m107 for lonely kills. (Bolt action and zeroing works fine.) Even though I have m107 atm and it is a killer.(esp over 1000m or to vehicles...)

So yeah, we needed a vehicle, we were at factory gathering some loot for a van we spotted and I decided we should set up a trap incase anyone drove through. I figured since most vehicles slow down on grass, we should run them onto the grass. Then Craig would kill the driver, run and hide. And I'd kill any passengers that got out. Here's how it went. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=snBCpIwjBMk

1. Age: 15 2. Experience Level: Veteran, played about a week but I mean PLAYED not chilled. I've had A LOT of high end gear and kills already, learnt my way around the map and played nearly 100 hours I would say 3. Preferred role: Definitely Sniper, I can't handle being in a close combat situation. I'm no good at rushing my shots. 4. IRL Location: North West UK 5. Steam: Wardul 6. Skype (please contact me through Skype if possible, sorry to be difficult): tomo.francis 7. Extra Info: First of all sorry for being difficult with Skype and adding two extra points. But I have watched DayZ for over a month and started playing about a week ago. I have played over 10 hours a day. Had various snipers and assaults, killed several bandits and had several vehicles. I tried making my own team several times also, that was a waste of time with everyone messing around. I enjoy a chilled chat but as soon as I get a sniff of something dangerous, serious face is on. You will know I'm 15 by my voice but probably not by my skills, I played FPS for over 6 years already (starting back with Call of Duty Finest Hour) I try to work as tactically as possible and once I get what I need, I got what I need... I don't go all mr greedy for loot. If I have my sniper range finders, ghillie. I'm set and ill spread out the loot for new players as best as I can. (I've given loot out 3 times now and as soon as I give it them I get shot! :(.) I also joined the team speak but only two people were in and they weren't all too helpful. Thank you for the time and I hope you make the right decision.

Tents & vehicles are fixed? Cool. Rings hitmen to cancel contract

Positive, i have repaired 15+ vehicles including a helo and no toolbox was on me.

Where to even begin? I'll start with the "CRY MOAR ITS ALPHA," Exactly. You never paid for the mod, nor the work that's been put into it by others. You paid for Arma 2, an already bugged game rampant with glitches after reading some blog on how 'cool, fresh and hip this new DayZ mod is,' or 'it's the newest left 4 dead guyz, c'mon!' It's not. And it never will be. It was an experiment, quote 'anti-game,' which you build attachment to your character, your equipment and the time you've put into it, and then get upset when you lose it to <insert excuse here> because you logged on and got yourself into whatever mess occurred. "I got sniped! What a bunch of candy ass, left-wing homosexuals! With their hip hideouts in the trees, and their obamacare," If it looks like a sniper might have a vantage point, chances are, a sniper -may- or -may not- have a bead on that location. You took the risk; quit complaining about your own mistakes. "Faggot spawn killers and their Romney-esque 'keepin the man down!' activities. go fight someone who can fight back!" Boohoo; you died and lost nothing. Enjoy your fresh spawn, who knows, maybe you'll even find something nicer this time around. "GAME'S BROKE, tl;dr, I quit until somebody fixes the <insert issue with game engine here>!" I would re-iterate that it's alpha, but apparently that doesn't mean anything to anyone, so i'll leave you with this: the mod is free, and nobody here put shit into the game except for their time, in which case, sorry you look back on it as time wasted. Personally, I like the quirks of the game. Gives it a flavor that has kept me coming back, regardless of losing my coyote backpacks contents because the engine wants to hiccup and sputter. I deal with it, I adapt, I enjoy. Can't tell you how many times the games had me laughing my ass off over a defect in the engine, or a glitch that offers another highlight to an evening of playing. Last, but of course not least, everyone's favorite complaint: "ASDFGHJKL! HAX! Haxorz this, thunderdome that, teleport this, rage 'bout that, LKJHGFDSA hear me menstruate about hakz guyz..." For nearly every encounter I've ever had with a hacker, it's been a surreal, creepy, nervous encounter that has left me dead, confused, amused, or better off. In any case, I still chuckle back at it. From camping a hillside, waiting on a hapless victim come along, I hear a foghorn go off directly beside me. I ask myself, 'who could see me, what's going on?!' and I don't see where it's coming from until I turnt around, only to see a Ural not even 5m behind me. I ask in DC if he's friendly, and he types out that I should get in. Being the bandit-sort I am, I feigned that I was not intent on hurting him until I lined up a shot to his head through the windowscreen; I unloaded half the clip into his head and promptly watched him exit the vehicle, tell me I "wasn't very nice," to which I unloaded the -rest- of my clip into him, and still he got back into the Ural, drove off the mountainside and left me shaken, confused, and wondering if shooting a hacker in the head on sight is really the best way to go about staying alive for long. Other hackers have been nice enough to give me vehicles, weapons, tools, soldier outfits, the whole nine. Often, on a shitty uneventful play through, a scripter has made my day in game by doing something whimsical. Not to say scripting is good, nor do I endorse it, I simply can't reconcile coming onto the forum and complaining where hundreds have complained before and expecting results other than, "QQ, cry moar ," Thank you for reading, that is all. Sincerely, Dirty Pyrex,

well, i think i made this before, but who cares, its almost like bumping being able to block corridors or even laders, destroying ladders and maybe even wooden walls. Implementing metal sheets to be used in making metal walls, like very poorly made shanty towns, being able to collet to brick piles(or put them inside vehicles or trucks) so after you can pile them up, cement and concrete would be more elaborate, but maybe adding cement wouldnt be that hard. I think thats it, and maybe a table that can help fix gear when broken stuff be implemented, even faster than the so called toolbox would be, due to more harcore and heavy tools

Just wait! We all need more time with the patch to really see what is happening... some server admins could test those tents and vehicles out and report? Same with the artifacts, just wait for more info... picture in this topic is REALLY MINOR looking artifacting, almost not worth of complaining... What I have seen it has been like 100times worse, that you cant see anything but your self.. JUST WAIT PPL and dont start crying soon as the topic starts... it has been only few hours and peopple are crying already, omg.

Respawn in a few days. We have been doing manual restarts because every time we do we lose everything in the tents and vehicles even if we saved them. Not sure if the problem is still happeing but we do a restart around every two days I would say. It was our first helicopter so we weren't sure where to hide it.

Hello, peeps. I have a few suggestions for the game. 1. Camo nets -This would mainly be for hiding vehicles. I noticed many people hide their vehicles in the middle of a forest, in between bushes. They are still QUITE noticable. Implimenting camo nets would allow players to more effectively conceal their vehicles that they spent hours fixing. 2. Booby traps - I know the bear trap is in the game, but giving players a few tools to defend their encampment when they are not online would be nice. For instance- Fishing wires + a pulley + grenade = grenade goes off when another player steps over the wire. There can be many combinations. Maybe even: Shovel + Wood Pile + camo net= Punji stick trap. Fall through a hole with pointy sticks inside. Hide it with camo net. 3. Trap doors/ secret entrances/ combination locks - self-explanatory, gives only certain players access to their base. This may be a bit too much, as it would completely limit other players from looting. My point is, it doesn't have to be that others simply CANNOT access our belongings, but give the owners a way to protect their property better. (Help us hide them or make them a pain to access). 4. Shooting while onboard vehicles -People who are not driving shoot be able to roll the windows down an fire their weapons at pursuers. -maybe the driver can fire his side arm while driving but have less control. Team work, Cooperation: -The lack of cooperation between players is a big problem in this game. Here are a few ideas to counter that. 1. Place trade camps. -Placing camps where fire arms will be confiscated during your stay will be effective. Here, players can set up stands to sell equipment and supplies that they gathered across the wasteland. Items can be sold through: trading for other items or make a currency system. 2. Co-operation level: - Give progression to cooperation. Cooperating with players more and more gives you additional levels or experience points. They can be allocated or automatically give you bonuses. For instance: Damage bonuses to cooperative players. Sneak bonus to cooperative players. Award players for cooperating through bonuses or equipment. Humanity: Gain humanity for killing zombies. Massive humanity increase for helping other players. Becomxing a hero should give players more bonuses. Other suggestions: 1. More Weapons!!! -This has probably been said so many times. The only ARs we see in game are M16 and Ak47 variants. I want to see some variety! G36? AUG? F2000? SCAR-L? 2. Change of scenery - The same old map gets quite boring quite quickly. I've played the Lingor Island mod and the change of scenery was very interesting. New areas to explore and new views. It revitalized the fun for me. Being able to visit multiple different regions which are accessible by following the roads that lead you out of the map.

so basically ive only ever found 1 working vehicle in my dayz life and it was a small boat i never even got to drive it because of no fuel, but just now i found a working bus with only a broken fuel tank and very little fuel but enough for me to get out of electro alive then i got to solicnhy (not sure how to spell it) in search of fuel tank parts and i find a vhs truck but it had a broken engine and fuel tank and no fuel so i left it then i parked my bus at a dock because i was coming of and couldnt be bothered to hide it and i found 2 small boats parked up. just thought id share this because it was a new experience for me to find 4 vehicles in about 30mins and before that i had only found 1 boat even thought ive been playing for about 1 1/2 months.

on my clans server (which is down now due to lack of interest from other clan members) skalka was a pretty common place for people to take vehicles and set up bases so he just searched around that general area and found those tents and the chopper up on that hill. easy spot since it was in the wide open. and what do you mean it will be back in a few days? respawn for you to fix it up or back at your camp? also how often does your server do its restarts (manual or automatic)?

Yes, vehicles and tents fixed. I just missed that from the notes. Last weekend I was at PAX Prime in Seattle, weekend before I was at Gamescom in Germany. That's two burned weekends in a row. And I just arrived back from a trans-atlantic flight, so cut me a little bit of slack :) I'm tired :)

We launched a new server a few days ago. I believe it is running the most recent patch. We are having issues with vehicles saving along with tents/vehicle storage saving as well. The company we use to host our server has a fix for this problem but has been told by "dayz" that they are not allowed to apply the fix to the servers they operate. Why is this? Why cant a fix to two game breaking bugs not be applied to servers that are being paid for by the fans? its been a month since our last patch and it doesnt seem like they will be fixing these bugs anytime soon. if a fix is available and can be used to solve these issues why hasnt it been officially released in a patch?

I didn't see any official mention of vehicles, might stick with my 1.7.2.5 with tent+vehicle hotfix for now
