I likes, have some beeeeenz. Takes me back to fond memories of driving forklifts on BF3's Back to Karkland maps! EDIT: Hell, if they are adding underground construction, why not add digging industrial vehicles too!

m greenwald chill haha i hadn't really thought of spawn rates or places or greedy F@#%$ stashing 3 vehicles just someone in my group suggested it and i thought id post it on forums. My group now has 5 vehicles and a chopper greenwald DE 1195 your welcome to come take one if it makes you happy :)

I know what your implying. But I don't care about kill numbers, or survival time. I aim to have fun within my group, working as a team to raid places, and sometimes other groups. it's just nice to have the option. I know a minimalistic UI is the aim of the game, due to attempt to be a simulation, but when you get used to something being there, it's annoying having it taken away. Like vehicles on a server restart. (used to now xD)

Hi, you are welcome to check us out at The BSB Network. We're a social gaming community that is dedicated to fair and fun gaming.

These teams have several bases, vehicles, camps and play across several of our own home servers. The community is mostly adult gamers over the age of 20 (well over in most cases!) but there are no age, time or skill requirements - all we ask is you play fair and have a bit of common sense about you! Our members are based all over the world and are on at all times of the day and night, but all speak English and most are based in the UK and Mainland Europe with some in the US too. We've been gaming as a community since 2002, so we're not some ad-hoc fly by night clan that's been quickly set up and will be gone in the blink of an eye!

yes mate that could be done, i can safe all tents with items in em, i am mainly concerned with vehicles tbh. coz they are dodgy atm, saving sometimes and randomly dissappering for no reason. Thats my main concern, and ofc if the tent that does not work atm, will work after update? just dunno atm. cpz we got a few tents, that keep resetting. It will take longer to find all the tents, as all object ingame is in the same table lol. There has been an update for the vehicle script to correct some of the errors found. will update it when i get home :)

well how about wipe vehicles and just leave tents? could that be done?

When you activate the debug monitor via the options, You are no longer able to see how hungry, thirsty, or cold you are. You are also unable to see you noise/sight levels. So basically, they fixed one major issue, and created a load of minor ones. Why not fix the ones you've created? because now we're in a win/loss/loss Win: Vehicles/Tents save Loss: No debug monitor Loss: If debug monitor is active, you can't see how hungry or thirsty you are + noise and sight levels. :/

NO CAMO NETS!! Its bad enough people take 3-6 vehicles for one fucking person.

this is common and all part of the game. Stop getting attached to things..remember there are other people out there who want nothing more than to subvert work that other people do; that is part of their experience. You need to stop looking at vehicles as something you can save and enjoy them when you have them. That way youll never be dissapointed

Considering you have to fuel up vehicles, you should also have to 'fuel up' electronic devices with batteries you will find in supermarkets. Batteries could be used for things such as night vision scopes/binoculars, thermal optics and whatever else batteries could be used for. Batteries could even be used for walkie talkies with channels to communicate with each other from a distance. As well as batteries, power outlets could be added to buildings so you can charge your electronic devices or even rechargeable batteries. I know i would like this in DayZ because it would add to the realism of the game. Please tell me down below if you think this would be a good or bad add on to DayZ and why. Also, what do you think batteries will be used for? :)

I like the idea of bases , and yes maybe a base at a airport , where a base is a safe haven for players , but can be controlled by groups of players , but i think more of missions to maintain this base , as a base takes energy or some type of element , IE completing mission , like for instances in a town there would one zombie he could of been the top doctor for that town , he could be dress in white as doctors are , the idea would be to heal that zombie with a vile or antidote and bring him or her back to the base safely , viles or antidotes can only be made at bases and can only be made after some resources are collected and also it takes some time to make , say maybe 1 to 2 hours , when you have completed a mission you get a prize at a base say for instance a car , i also think on each map only so many vehicles should be allowed on the map at any one time ... Mission shouldn't be easy , you could be looking for a zombie within a town or the surrounding areas , or it could be a unarmed civilian , who would be hiding in a house or something like that , so also the aspect of searching for your goal may take some time , and also being able to bring your mission back to base , if a mission isn't completed for some time , IE 1 day then the base you are at will be overrun by zombies , they will keep coming until you run out of ammo , but other than that zombies rarely go near bases , the reason would be because of the missions you complete .. A base should be a place to store items of bring food back too , and yes maybe even to make small amounts of fuel etc but again that depends on missions being completed , i also think there should be only one main base , i also think radios would be good for long range chat , and again batteries for these radio's do not last long and are very hard to come by and maybe when attacked by zombies the first think they break is the radio , also radio's are very hard to find the components to make one , and yes in a base there should be a stand alone radio , to use this you would have to be close to it and select the option and again this radio also needs battery's ... The idea of mission would give a extra element to the game , and there could be many types of mission , but the main mission is to maintain the base , maybe a bigger map would be good ...

well now hacker can save em,like happen 10 min ago on the server i play (1.7.2.6!!) all vehicles got teleport gg and he save em they not back after server was down now hacker can have some fun can fool us alot .. oh well still no point repair em hacker are in all server and if they teleport vehicles gg

i vote a PROFOUND NO to resetting tents and vehicles i got my stuff i need in them and i love my UAZ so my vote is NO the new update stops dupeing COMPLETELY so no point i don't wanna loose my vehicle AGAIN Also if it does happen i for 1 wont be playing again i have worked too hard and put too many hours into getting the stuff to just loose it for no real reason

Switch server id say. Could be a few things maybe the admin dosent want u to have his vehicles? Unless its your own server

Well, I don't get why you couldn't just look at the changelog, but whatever; 1. They fixed this glitch everyone got when looking at dead soldiers (scenery, not actual players) where giant shapes would come out of them and obscure your view. It can still happen with barbed wire and maybe some other things though. 2. When you get a vehicle or a tent to put stuff in you can save them. But for the last patch, this hasn't been working, so the vehicles would reset to their spawns instead of returning where you left them. This has apparently been fixed, though I'll believe it when I see it! :D 3. You used to be able to change Revolver ammo to M1911 ammo and vice versa, and it would reset the clip to full ammo. You could use this to get infinite ammo as long as you never finished a magazine. Now, you just get the amount of ammo that was in the clip when you convert it to the new type of clip. 4. Now bear traps have a chance to spawn on hunter zombies. 5. They made it so you can switch between three types of HUD; default (with no debug), debug (with everything) and nothing. However, this broke the GUI and now if you have debug on the rest of the HUD will remain static (meaning, it won't update at all - so it's basically useless). That's it.

billy mays remembrance foundation has some pretty sweet features. still running .7.2.5 but has tent saving and like 50 vehicles, active admins, side chat enabled, anti-alt-f4 features http://bmrf.me/ my friend was also playing on USPVT yesterday and said it was pretty good.

As a server admin, this has been IMO the best update so far regarding tents. I've thoroughly tested saving things in them and have yet to have anything disappear through multiple server restarts. Also, and I can't believe no one has mentioned this (maybe I missed it), but I no longer have to do the 30 minute rain dance for the DayZ gods to place a tent, they seem to be going down wherever on the first try. I would however love to see packed up tents NOT reappearing after a restart seeing as how the aforementioned rain dance can cause tent placements that are less than great. I can confirm however that vehicles are losing their gas following a server restart, but their locations have been solid so far. To the people mentioning zombie aggro issues, I have not noticed anything even remotely close to these experiences. It was likely some sort of de-syncing issue i.e.the game/zombies still think you're in a town even though you're 100m into the woods. I raided two downed choppers with a friend earlier and both the loot and the zombies were present and functioning normally. The UI stuff does not bother me, I imagine given that its called a Debug Monitor it will be going away soon anyway, I rather like the excitement of not knowing how many zombies are around, its a helluva lot more realistic.

Hey Folks, earlier today I was playing with some friends when we ran across our first vehicles. Exciting times. The issue was that the food and drink indicators did not change to reflect me starving/dehydrating. They were both green but I passed out due to blood loss because of the low values. Luckily I enabled debug or I wouldn't have even seen the blood loss and likely would have died. Is this something that tends to happen when you find vehicles? This is the only time I've ever seen or heard of this bug.

So with 1.7.2.6 coming out, servers are updating. The server that has all of my vehicles and gear on it is 1.7.2.4, and the admin is completely inactive. I decided to go and look for the offroad that spawns west of Zeleno, near the two barns. I drive the URAL there on the 1.7.2.4 server, as it is good transport and has all of my gear and car parts. I find a .6 server with the offroad and put my M4A1 CCO SD with four mags and my AS50 in there for space to carry to carry the car parts over the server. I then disconnect to get the car parts from my URAL, when it suddenly hits me. I don't know the name of the server. *facepalm* So pretty much, if you want an M4A1 CCO SD and/or an AS50 [the .50 has no ammo, though], look in the offroad at Zeleno on a US server. The server time is around 12 am, less than 20 players too. I have spares, that's why I'm not bothering to get the stuff.

I speak from my experience, I can't speak for yours. @Sye I got that email too. Thats for the Official Hive Servers I believe. I run on the private hive because the admin rules on official are just plain dumb. The private hive doesn't the 1.7.2.6 update as the tents and vehicles already work. However if they actually fixed the artifacting, it will be worth porting over, Lee is looking into it and said if so, it will be done. They've been going pretty hard on the Takistan map lately I can't wait.

Temporary fix follows. Switch to debug menu, apply exit menu. Then open menu again and cycle back through to debug again and it fixes itself. You might be able to just set it then cycle and set again. works for me everytime I do that as I noticed this bug as well. Its still better than tents and vehicles not saving. EDIT: Ahh! He ninja'd me :P

true ava. but this wipe is to combat the dupping issue we have had the last couple of weeks. Its no fun when people are running around with 4 NVG's and stuff like that. i hate the dupping so much, so much. but i cant ban people for dupping, as the server would be emtpy then lol and its not really a cheat, more an bug and exploit tbh. stuff gets dupped on accident all the time. and theres a MILLION tents with nothing in em lol. gues the placement was off so they got reset or was never used. Im also possitive that i can fix some of the DB related bugs by reinstalling it, such as random people dying on login, vehicles dissappering and saving issues. Woozie: What vehicle? Newly found or crashed or? and the L85 is prob ok then, but it should be named AWS proberly :)

I vote strictly against yet another wipe, even if its only affecting vehicles. I found my favorite ride just a few days ago... :(

*facepalm* Admins don´t have such Powers. So if you can take it no need of this post since you got killed by one Edit: Seeing as there seems to be quite a bit of confusion regarding what exactly constitutes admin abuse, this thread will shed some light on the issue. First things first, understand what admins are capable of doing; - Lock the server - Restart the server - Password the server - Restart the mission in-game - Kick or ban players These are the things admins are able to do. They're not necessarily allowed to do them. To see the server hosting rules set out for admins, please refer to the following DayZ Server Hosting rules thread that can be found at the following address; http://dayzmod.com/f...-hosting-rules/. Admins do not have the tools to; - Spawn in weapons and vehicles - Remotely kill players - Crash your game - Roll back the servers to previous 'saves' - Spawn nukes on top of players - Teleport

yeh, ive been thinking about wiping the vehicles tables (vehicles, tents, hedgehogs, wire, sandbag) for the new update. im sick of all the dupping that has taken place, coz of the bugs. what do you guys think? and since vehicles and tents should save proberly after next update, it would be a good idea to wipe the object. still keeping character data ofc. and the server team is testing the new spawn script updates, so hopefully theres a new spawn scripts soon. the vehicle problem (randomly dissappering) could also be solved by a DB wipe and reinstall i think. btw, how exactly did it disappear? could help me find the issue. EDIT: BTW i dont believe that L85a2 RIS CWS is a part of dayz. the correct one is L85a2 AWS. so its most likely a hacked weapon... another reason to wipe. EDIT2: I made a poll, go vote people :D
