Come to our PL9 server, fairly new, all vehicles running, heli spawning :)

Just speaking from personal experience here but have had multiple vehicles mysteriously vanish after server restart. Seems to go hand in hand with when the admin finds out it's missing... lol Just last week we had a V3S truck just vanish from our camp.. I mean one minute I was looking at it, went to a tent to swap one piece of gear, turned around and poof it's gone. Hackers? Abusive admins? Ghost in the machine? Fucked if I know. P.S. All proper save protocols were followed. Just have no clue what happened.

Also, upon reloading the server, all the vehicles and tents were gone. Not just ours. Everywhere.

Spot on post OP! I agree with everything you have said! I'd like rocket to remove the tents and stop storing in vehicles, then do a complete wipe of the hive, all tents gone, all players wiped. But he wont do that, not a flippin chance.

Good luck in your recruiting. Saw you guys roll onto a server I was on last night as my buddy and I were tromping around the map scouting vehicles. You guys didn't stay long though, I think you were expecting to find us in cherno or elecktro. Really only time's were there are after a death and have to equip again. Come join us again if you can find us, we'll see how well your 5 match up to us 2. =) BTW TS sucks, get mumble much better and it's free.

You are correct in assuming that this was me in the Helicopter, I can only assume you were the AS50 that chain fired at me when I went over to take a look at the airfield, you need to aim a little further forward presumed you have M107 over the AS50 rounds. Basically FR100 has had some issues with hacking, quite a many even, NE airfield was a target of such and I was actually killed there myself when I got mass teleported, in that instance I was tabbed and kicked all the players off the server, usually that helps prevent some deaths. Later on on the server we had another one of these, again impossible to track down who actually did it, every vehicle on the server seemed to have been teleported to one location with all the players aswell, our helicopter along with another one that was broken was there, along with all the other cars and the ones that existed, at that point the server was just too far gone and issued a restart to fix it, sadly it seems every single vehicle due to that has gone and there literally is no more. Later on more hacking came about and now there's a bunch of stuff all over including Cherno looking like a warzone.Oh and also, do take in mind that hackers don't need to bother with this sort of thing clearly, they spawn vehicles when they need them and spawn gear when they need them. Hacker camps are usually rare due to that case and any you do find are more likely to be realistic, however we did find this with our helicopter aswell earlier on: http://puu.sh/QK5a

Representing Enko here, those vehicles were not hacked. All of those vehicles were spawned at the airfield previously, the NE airfield. We just took the vehicles to store gear and such in there, we knew they were going to disappear on a server restart anyway, so we figured some of the vehicles may be legitimate. We simply then took all of the vehicles there and left them there, knowing that when the server disappeared it would leave the legitimate ones there and the hacked (see, SUV's), gone. Enko does not hack and never has hacked, we have banned multiple hackers on that server, in fact.

There used to be serious problems with vehicle spawning. On some servers, vehicles wouldn't spawn at all. On other servers, vehicles would spawn, but their database entries would become corrupted within days and they would despawn but not delete. When enough vehicles become corrupt, it breaks the respawn system so no more vehicles spawn (I think the server still sees the corrupted vehicles as existing even though they can't spawn). I'm not sure if that was ever fixed.

Greetings guys, Server has been updated to 1.7.2.5 and Arma2 Beta 95883 Running great with the new awesome patch from the DayZ team... just brilliant! We also now have a friendly clan on the server Asylum - just started and we already have a few great members having fun making a big camp - exploring, surviving, collecting vehicles and defending and attacking others! anyone looking for a mature group with young and older members from accross europe anyone is welcome, we still have a few slots left... we only have a few basic rules and regulations :) Feel free to message here or drop by our Teamspeak server or drop into our facebook page if your interested! http://www.facebook.com/MaChoMaNsDayzServer Many thanks, and a massive shout out to the DayZ staff for a great patch and Vilayer for our brilliant server :) MaChOMaN^

OK mate, don't get in the vehicle, it will probably explode if it has been hacked in. Yeah, sounds like its not part of dayz from the vehicles list. Everyone gets a second chance :-) But I take your point, some don't deserve it. Ill send them some warning messages next time they log in and monitor their behaviour, I can watch for multiple disconnects in the server logs. Warnings do seem to work though, mod1sh and alex were carrying hacked in weapons. Not seen Alex but Mod1sh started playing fair after I sent him a warning. Keep an eye on the tryhard guys (alpaca and sheep) they quit on me the other day, but have not been back yet, they are not banned but I am keeping an eye on them. Thanks for the report, they will be warned and monitored.

Wipe all the camps and all the gear except this currently on characters, delete tents and trunks from the game. Playing this mod is pointless now. I hate myself for knowing where the camps are, and where people hide their vehicles. I don't enjoy the game anymore. One challenging thing that left is PvP. And anyway if I die I just need to run to the nearest known camp and gear up. I don't even have my own tent. I don't need it. It's not a survival mod anymore - that's for sure.

If there were cities that big, then vehicles should be a lot more common than they are now.

all players,animals and tons of vehicles (like 30 busses,a heli, boats etc.) portet to one single spot @ 019/004 of course a lot of players start shooting and all that stuff and now all the vehicles still there... a teammate said maybe it was "thunderdome"-cheat and still making screenshots i got this on fraps, but not the port, only i relog all the vehicles still there and i startet fraps... and yea, my english is pretty bad:) lg Rampo i really hate cheaters/hackers-> come play fair one on one >:( screenshots in a few minutes...

posted in a different thread about this not to long ago ill paste it here as it contains an interesting experiment it did. "Over the past couple of weeks it has gotten really bad with hackers, hopefully you will stick it out as it seems that battleye is atleast trying to get shit together. but with that said I have seen more hackers in Dayz then i have in the entire rest of my gaming carrer combined (roughly 25 years of gaming from consoles to PC). Infact a couple of days ago I actually did what I guess you could call an experiment. after my team logged out for the night and being freshly killed in a legit fire fight, I decided to see how bad it really was. I made it a point to join ONLY servers that where near full and see how many hackers I ran into. Over the course of about 2 1/2 to 3 hours I encountered hackers roughly every 15-45 min's. after each encounter I would change my IGN and change servers, it got to the point that i couldnt even make it to cherno or elektro to gather basic supplies before I got killed. Infact the only time I actually made to a major city was the last run before i logged out that night. but even then I made it to cherno and it was full of busses; there was busses on the silo's, on the factory, some on the fire station and probably about 25-50 just laying around town. now given this is over the course of only 1 night, and alot of it could be writen off as bad luck. Its still pretty bad, over the course of an average day we can usually plan on seeing at least 1 hacker a day. most are fairly uneventfull, hacked weapons and vehicles mostly but they're around." I too have got to the point where I just dont bother actually playing anymore i just run around and shoot people till i get killed by a hacker. happens everyday to me and my team. maybe we're just super unlucky but recently even low pop servers are getting hit left and right. was just on a 6, yes thats right SIX person server that got hit with a kill script. I always change servers and my IGN doesnt seem to matter, but im pretty sure im not being targeted. another thing ive noticed is the US and russian servers seem to have it really bad. so it may be a region thing.

Age:18 Ingame Name:Angel of Death TZ and Country:UTC +10 Australia Are you willing to use TS3: Yes Are you willing to use the website when it's operational: Yes What separates you from everyone else ( what are you're specialty's ) If someone needs to be helped i wont leave them at all. I can drive ground Vehicles no prob and im sure with a bit more practice on arma 2 i could fly a heli. Pretty good with all weapons but snipers because in my previous group i always gave one of them the sniper because he was great at it. What type of role would best suit you: What ever the team is in need of.

Operation: "Where's my Bus Brah?" After we stole their chopper we decided to hit their tents and vehicles hide outs. If you click it and go to youtube the description has links to the time stamps of all the events.

to make the story short.. im tired of losing everything and i want to rise to the top again. i want the best weapons and vehicles and a fulfilled base. but i cant do it only two people. i need a group.. or to join a group a serious group. im 20 i live in california and im awake in the mornings and play as often as possible even on my days off. i want a good group of people who are on often and some throughout the day to keep a potential camp safe. post below if you are interested in joining me or if you already have a group and have room for me and maybe up to three other friends. i also have skype but dont like to use it for voice calls because my home has a lot of background noise i prefer a push to talk program.

I think one of the huge parts of this game that sets it apart from others, is its wide open sandbox style, that allows you to stake a claim to a certain piece of woods, or in some cases buildings. People locking down cities, or factory areas, or making an armory in the middle of the woods. It is SO much fun. But while the cats are away, the mice will play, and this is where my inpsiration for this suggestion comes from. I think it is a little silly that after days and days of work getting a camp setup, that some newspawn can just by sheer luck stumble accross it and take it ALL. Though, this is the nature of the game, and that is not what my suggestion combats. My suggestion gives us a way to protect our selves, even in just a small way. Recently my clan began to fortify a small warehouse are in a smaller city in Chernarus. I drew some inspiration from this as well, since we used the warehouses as storage units for vehicles and such. I think it would be a pretty unique feature if we added combination locks. This item, when used, would lock a door from being accessed without the use of the combination set by the user when the lock is originally used. The lock would be looted when used, and the person who unlocked it would have to lock it again before logging out or leaving. This would give us horders a way to protect our goods while we're logged out. -User uses lock -Interface comes up and requests you to enter your desired 3 sets of 2 numbers. I.E. > 03 < 15 >> 30 -Door/Foot Locker is locked -User opens door -Interface comes up asking for the 3 degit code Other forms of entry could include -High Powered Rifle -Tool Box -Satchel Charge Make the item extremely rare, as if it is too common there would be locks on every door. Rarest Ware House spawn. Could be too easy to crack to be worth implementing, but at least it would stop those new spawns with absolutely nothing from taking my ATV and my best guns...and all my beans and mountain dew... Thanks, Bruins / Neolism

The hole in this logic is that you‘re assuming that vehicles are being kept within the bounds of the map. They‘re -not-. They‘re 5-15km off the edge of the map; helis have the range to be 20km+ off the edge. Off-map despawn mechanics are -not- working, and unfortunately vehicles within the map are free game for kiddies with ESP/map hacks.

-Graphic glitches -Ammo still exploitable -Character location screwed (spawned on the other edge of the map) -Vehicle location bugged (lost 2 vehicles) -I Like the new Humanity-System (Hero Skin looks pretty sick)

Unfortunately, we have no choice but to announce the location publicly, the alternative is to keep things secret and if we were lucky we'd get maybe 2 or 3 traders. I'd rather have it public and have 15+ traders a day and some bandit attacks to keep things interesting. Hackers can ruin our day regardless, out of working hours they target our storage camps, our vehicles and have even started picking off individual members from what I heard.

Credit to all you guys at Freeside Trading Company. Soldiering on despite all kinds of fucktards trying to crash your servers. Myself and everyone I play with fully supports the great work you are trying to do. We have played on your servers and generally tried to be helpful. (ie; returning stolen vehicles, etc.) It's this kind of player-driven initiative that needs to be supported and grown for DayZ to have a chance at being something new - not just another bullshit FPS. Don't let the brain-dead ass clowns get you down, keep fighting the good fight.

Just an FYI the server had a bad restart and none of the tents or vehicles spawned in. Is there anyway that you can do a manual restart so the gear is there again?

If you found them together they might have been hacked in. A "friendly" hacker once spawned a camp of vehicles around my group and told us to take what we wanted. We took a huey, a ural, and a UAZ up north and hid them. Saved them each 5 times. They despawned after the server restarted. I looked it up and apparently hacked in vehicles despawn after restarts.

all testing servers kick upon join but are still connected to the hive, mainly to hoard items and vehicles but with a excuse to kick you
