Denalb US1 Chicago (v1.7.2.5/build 96061) [Private Hive|Veteran|CH:ON|3DP:ON] Only Daytime - Hosted by Denalb With all of the craziness that 1.7.2.5 and scripting has brought, I want to give everyone a second option. I created a 50 player server using a private hive for anyone to play on. Remember, with a private hive, your character will not save to other servers. You will be forced to play on my server if you want to play the same character you create on my server. Some advantages to this are: No server hopping/ghosting. Local bans to cheaters/scripters without the need to justify on the DayZ forums. Always Daytime so nightvision goggles/gamma aren't required for US players who play at night. More vehicles! I've added plenty of vehicles to share including two helicopters for some nice air battles. Vehicles and Tents save! Thats right. Inventories, locations, you name it, it saves. Two choppers, 1 SUV, and about 50 other vehicles to find and use! I created new random spawns for most vehicles. If a vehicle is deemed out of bounds/is destroyed on a server restart, the vehicle will be reset back to its original spawn point. Less lag/desync as the hive is local to my server and not being flooded by thousands of servers. New spawn locations on the east coast to help newcomers explore the northeast part of the map. Moved the southwest spawns further east to help new spawns get to the major cities without running for 45 minutes. *Future Update*Out of bounds prevention. Players/Vehicles will die/explode when crossing over to out of bounds. This will also help those who may spawn out there. *Possible Update in the Future* Alt+F4 prevention. If I see enough requests for it, I am also willing to modifiy your starting equipment if it isn't outrageous. (I was thinking about giving players some food/water and a hatchet). I may also provide a teamspeak server if I get enough requests for it. So come try it out. It will be up 24/7. It will be fast loading with minimal lag. I will also be able to admin it a lot better due to some extra protection I have installed for script kiddies and hackers.

It seems to me some of the lower tier stuff up to the level of the common AK variants should have really high cap numbers, and maybe a couple of them should be pretty much unlimited. Like the Makarov/Winchester for example. Just kind of thinking out loud here, and I realize exactly what it would take on the technical end of things, but... What if the degradation was only somewhat accelerated? Supposing a system that is kind of like the vehicles, with different components having their own wear life. Say, 4000 rounds through an assault rifle and the bolt assembly is worn out. The number is completely out of my ass for illustration, and different weapons could have different wear rates. Same with the different components. A barrel isn't going to wear out as fast as a bolt. The world starts out, everything's new, everything's shiny. People find their weaponry and do their thing. As time goes on though, stuff gets used. Maybe it takes 100 owners before the bolt on an AK gets used up. However, if I get sniped in a field and don't get looted until my body disappears, the gear I was carrying goes back into the 'pool' for respawning, with all the wear on it still intact. So when it spawns again, it's not brand new and shiny anymore. That way, people will get reasonable wear and tear out of their weapons, but they won't work indefinitely. As game time rolls on, stuff gets worse and worse. Of course, when a component is finally all used up, it goes back into the pool to respawn new.

I know there was a lot of downtime last night, but I was moving the private hive over to a more stable software. The server is now way better than the first night. I made sure that all possible vehicle spawns are on the map. When the server restarts, all destroyed vehicles will respawn without waiting a few days. Also, I just added new spawn points on the east coast to get more new players in Berezino. The best thing I can say so far is: Tents and vehicles save! and they do it automatically when you are nearby. So come hoard your vehicles (including two choppers at unknown spawn locations) so others can hunt them down! There are also about 4 heli crash sites that spawn randomly every server restart. I will probably add a few more to make it more exciting. So come play! The server will be up all day and will be more stable. Lets get in there and have some fun.

How long have you played? Since 1.6 How frequent do you play? Pretty Often, like 3-5 Hours a day What role would you like to play? I wouldn't describe myself as a leader but i have potential to lead small squads (2-4 people) I like playing support, Sniping (When i have the proper equipment) and Assault. Can you pilot a heli, or drive a vehicle with a decent amount of skill? I played Arma 2 before but believe it or not, i could not master a helicopter... Something i don't have. I can drive vehicles. Can you navigate the map? Yes, I can navigate just using a map and a watch, or stars at night if ths sky is clear What area of the world do you live in? I like roaming on the coast, raiding Cherno, Electro and all the way to NE Airfield. Tell us a bit about yourself. I am from Malta (A tiny island south of italy), I can speak english very well, although i have a strange accent, but it's understandable. I have DayZ experience since I played with another clan, but it got disbanded because it was too unorganized. After getting Killed on Sight multiple times, i decided to follow the darkness, and join a bandit clan. I like to play for fun... Ohh I FUCKING HATE HACKERS. :) I can handle myself well in firefights and I will leave nobody behind.

1. No, sorry, you're avoiding my point. If you spend 20 hours gathering 10 vehicles, and all but two are gone, then the cost is enormous. No person or group of a normal size needs ten vehicles. Most groups of players are 2-4 people, and so you really only need two or three. The OP was wasting time hoarding vehicles that were unneeded (and likely to be unused), and all of the unnecessary vehicles were destroyed. He lost 4/5 of his fleet. He could've reduced the losses by simply having 5 vehicles- one is enough to shorten travel times for gathering parts and other needed supplies. Using vehicles risks losing them- it's best to risk as little as possible, which is the entire point behind my argument. The inevitable outcome of any situation is that the vehicle is gone for good- and the only benefit is shortened travel times. Having multiple vehicles only subjects your vehicles to greater risk due to transporting them and securing them. It is difficult to transport a large number of vehicles successfully (as the OP has indicated) and it is difficult to place them such that they will not be found. I'm consolidating this with point 2 and so the next point will refer to your point 3. 3. Admit it- your assumption was wrong. I'm waiting on you to admit that your point was wrong and that you don't know if I'm jealous or not. As you stated already, you cannot prove that I am jealous. Ad hominem. Ignoratio elenchi, or fallcy of distraction. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Red_herring_fallacy http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ad_hominem I suggest that you read up on logical fallacies so you can learn to stop using them. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_fallacies What do you want me to say? There's a problem with losing vehicles. The obvious solution is to either A. Not use them period or B. Don't use more than you need. There's not a whole lot else that can be done because we aren't the developers. If you were smart, you'd have noticed that the OP didn't put this in bug reports and instead came here.

Hi, i got a question. Since 1.7.2.5 is not working properly (Not saving vehicles etc) we dowgraded our Server to 1.7.2.4 and it is working fine now. We now got us some nice vehicles and tents. Now 1.7.3 is announced and we want to upgrade to it as soon as it is released. But does this delete our camp or not?

Its kinda just a new and fun, non-hive, place to play around. I find the different survivor skins make it more interestin. Also lots of vehicles, good sound effects. Its all just kinda well done and enjoyable as a break from Chenarus. If you force yourself not to look at a map online you can have the experience of exploring and navigating again, I think there are deinately problems but its fun to try.

this isn't the first time i have had problems with vehicles not 100% on this server but i think it was your server that i had flipped 3 atv's on a bridge due to a glitch first 2 with my brother an i the 3rd trying to get one of the others unstuck ...it didn't work anyway you re-spawned them with the same damage we first found them in which put me outa the mood to fix them again atv's suck anyway ... now during a connection problem maybe on my end or a server restart or something on yours caused my first car to vanish without a trace. my leg is broken from playing with a bear trap and im in the middle of bumfuck nowhere with no food or water the plan was to get aid from my brother when he gets on but our last tent set up put me in almost the exact situation and it didnt end well for either of us .... bottom line is i would like my truck back with my gear in it and in the condition it was in when i "Dc" and i was only offline for about a min and there was only one other person on the server and he kept dying so there isnt a snowball chance in hell he took it while i was off. i hope something can be done about this or you can read something on your magic admin file telling you what happen better than i can explain it. thank you , fyi it was an white off road truck if that helps at all

That's some straight up James Bond shit. I like to imagine that all of the citizens in chernarus had ejector seats in their vehicles.

Started playing, found a boat and a bus, both broken D: But still, found two vehicles within an hour of each other. Seems like a good server, was low pop, only me and two other people :P But it does look like a cool server!

Quite some vehicles available to!

I haven't been in [ZH] long and I'm still only a limited member, but there was NO hacking going on from us last night. In fact, quite the opposite as pretty much all of us on the server last night were killed, we lost almost all our vehicles (no, none magically reappeared, so no hacking from us I'm afraid), our base camp got raped and totally emptied and I ended up running around for an hour with just a hatchet for company. Talking of hackers, I actually died at the hands of one last night. Three us us disembarked our bus only for someone to teleport right in front of us and take us all out. I lost loads of top end gear, but hey, it's the nature of the game. Respawn and carry on, no point crying about it.

Is it possible to use this Hive if the server is not hosted by Vilayer? 1.7.2.4 is much more stable. Tents and vehicles works fine. I recommend doing the rollback! Hero / Bandit skins are useless and they don't work properly anyway. 1.7.2.5 doesn't introduce anything new except a ton of bugs!

You are just unlucky. Your server actually has nothing to do with what loot spawns and when. The Hive controls all of that for your server. There is literally nothing you can do to affect loot spawns at the server level (other than restarting the server to 'clear' loot and get all new loot piles). If such a problem existed, it would be exhibited on many servers (such as when a hive issue existed that prevented servers with instance IDs over 8000 from spawning any vehicles at all). However having 'nothing' spawn at a location is different than having stuff spawn at appropriate spots (just not the loot you want). It is extremely unlikely to the point I'd say implausible that your server is able to spawn loot properly, but not spawn "good loot". The Hive makes no distinction between "bad loot" and "good loot". It's just a matter of configured percentage chance to spawn for a given piece of loot. With that said, "good loot" does have a very low percentage chance to spawn in comparison with regular/garbage loot. I've been playing for weeks and I've yet to see a natural spawn of GPS, NVG, Rangefinder, and many other items. I've only ever obtained them from other players. Stuff is rare, intentionally. It just seems way more common because of all the tent duping/etc. going on. If I had to wager, I'd say absolutely nothing is wrong with your server. Good loot is intentionally uncommon/rare. Bizons are the 'garbage' loot of helicopter crashes, it makes sense you've seen lots of them. Tents are exceptionally rare compared to the other stuff that spawns in grocery stores. The random number generator is a cruel mistress, and is not often in a giving mood. In short, I highly doubt anything is wrong at all. Your server is probably working flawlessly. If there is some weird problem (which I can't fathom how), it would only ever be an issue with The Hive itself and only DayZ devs could fix it. Such a problem SHOULD affect other servers too (potentially all). Since no one else seems to be reporting issues, it's even more unlikely that such a problem exists. If you truly still believe your server is having a problem, your only option is to contact DayZ support and have them investigate. Nobody else can help or investigate.

hello guys, after i connect today our camp completely disappeared. 4 tents are gone and 2 vehicles, too. somebody who experienced the same? best regards wh1tey

I have lots of loot. I don't enjoy spending all day shooting and looting areas when I can't save it in tents/vehicles. Why waste a whole day finding good gear when I could go to a 50 man server, wait a few minutes, kill a few people and then be fully loaded out? If I see you, I will shoot you that way you can't shoot me.

This is just getting out of hand. Teleporting hackers. Invisible hackers. Hackers with ESP shooting through walls and dense foiliage. Hackers with mini-guns and .50 cal machine guns Hackers carrying 8 different guns and 50 magazines Hackers with hacked in guns Hell, I don't even mind the hacked in normal guns (AS50 TWS, etc) What I don't like is when someone shoots my clan mate, then dissappears into thin air before anyone can shoot back, only to reappear behind for a second shot and kill another clan mate, the dissappear again. Or hackers who fire continuously for over 2 minutes with a mini-gun from the side of a UH-60. Or hackers who keep up with a chopper by teleporting along the ground and shooting it with a .50 cal machine gun (M2 - usually found on top of tanks and vehicles). Hoping stand alone will fix a lot of this crap.

Here is the line from the createvehicle.log 29.08.2012 16:24:08: coryba2 (71.75.238.56:2314) 8d81dc72f69dfecb9d3c6399eb8ce951 - #0 "USBasicWeaponsBox" 16:28 [1579,13253,323] 29.08.2012 16:24:08: coryba2 (71.75.238.56:2314) 8d81dc72f69dfecb9d3c6399eb8ce951 - #2 "USBasicWeaponsBox" 16:28 [1579,13253,323] Not exactly sure what happened but I was driving then all of a sudden I was teleported along with all the vehicles in the game to a random coast town killing me in the process.. Is this enough proof?

A quick and safe way to practice using all of the weapons and vehicles you will encounter in DayZ while playing on the Chernarus map.

now, players have only 2 reasons that allows them to get good weapons and vehicles much easier then it should be: 1. cheaters, that spawns to the map lots of vehicles and weapons. 2. alt+f4 save your equipment. When developers remove such bugs like alt+f4, and make anti cheat system work, the most players will be concerned how to get good weapons and vehicles. So, will be more "running through the woods". Train must be in game, whatever automated it would be or not, but it's needed a fast way to get from one big city to another from your start point.

Also, pretty sure this is not a hack, just one of battle eyes many glitches. CreateVehicle #1 is "seagull" not sure on #2 but if hes spawning vehicles then it will be in the remote exec log. If hes not in there its not really a justifiable ban, sorry

Yep yep. Happened last week --- Spawned in Kamenka, city of death. A group of 7 or 8 wookies were sitting there with powerful gear. They spot me and another survivor and act all friendly and shit. They take us to our camp. They off the other dude for not following their directions... Bastards killed Timmy. We get to their camp, and they bid me gather as much gear as I'd like. I find a satchel charge. To my astonishment, they build a fireplace and all sit around it. I run over to the fire and place the explosive. They thought I was just fucking with the fireplace. I back up a safe distance, then scream "FOR TIMMY!" into direct and touch off the charge. All 7-8 are instantly killed. They start freaking out in the side chat. I talk to them in it while I take what I want from their bodies, tents, and vehicles, then hide the bodies, destroy the tents, and destroy all of their vehicles save their helicopter, which I stole and jumped out of near Cherno. The chopper collides with the city hall and apparently kills another... As I safely float down to the ground with a parachute. I was very aroused at that point. Fuck I need to get fraps.

Awesome campsite find with 2 vehicles. We think maybe some of the stuff could have been hacked in???
