Ay, I'm just finding your body with this, not accusing you of hacking but it is suspicious. How new are you to the game that you DON'T KNOW that the G36C is not in the game. Oh, and I'm not bullshitting otherwise I would've been banned quite some time ago. All our gear and vehicles are legit, I really don't know how you can't understand the concept of the private HIVE. Many servers have it including CA1. Dude, I know NOTHING of the coding of ArmA or Day Z, hell I don't even know the language it uses, so HOW am I supposed to hack or script into the game? The server is a fair, non-hacking server. It has occasional hackers that ruin game play but are close to immediately banned once they are detected. Maybe you should do a little more research on the server you are reporting for "hacking" before actually making a complaint. I see you use the same insults and keep saying the same thing when you actually have no proof of any hacking/scripting. Actually watched the videos, that is a hack that is put in by hackers called "Thunderdome" it is becoming a common hack, and just because this had happened (Happened about 5 times in the last 3 days) doesn't mean we did it. Actually, stuff has been implemented on the server to prevent if from getting "Thunderdomed". As for the satchel charges you can loot NWAF and Stary Sobor to find them, and find about 10 in 2 days. Also you can blow up buildings with smoke grenades but satchels work just as well. As for you randomly falling and getting brought to 10k blood, that's because the market was glitched for some reason and would do the effect of blowing up while causing damage to anything around it. Your videos are irrelevant and can prove nothing. Hope this clears things up.

hackers can be on any server so honestly that shouldn't really be a factor. map on is typically only on regular servers, not veteran. server restarts, well they happen on every server and honestly a proper admin will restart it if tents/vehicles are not spawning. friendly.....well that all just depends on who's on. There's no way to know.

From what I know, you've basically restarted your instance of DayZ running on the server. Basically like "restarting" the mission. I did this on my server recently and all of the tents / vehicles disappeared. However, I restarted the server via the TCAdmin portal we use with our server host, and everything came back. Here's further information Maybe try doing that!

Sorry, I need to prove anything to you? Believe it or don't, doesn't matter to me. I'm not going to sit here and teach admins how to understand how to relate the coordinates in the log to the ingame format. As for the items, that's plain as day in the logs. There are enough douchey admins as it is. How is the server i'm on relevent? What do you have to worry about, admins cant track you or your vehicles remember?

Good idea, I really think that almost in the way you repair i car, collect scrap metal and put armor on the car/suv and if you have an LMG, (m240, Mk48.) Put that on the car for Fire power would be Awesome. Alas wont happen anytime soon if it does happen. But good idea, to an extent you just have to be careful how many vehicles on the map, due to it being survival and not everyone can be parading around in a car, obviously.

I get that, we have pickup trucks, vans, sedans, hatchbacks, but no SUVs? (Not talking about the armored one, with the m134 4000rpm minigun. That'd be cool too, tho.) Everyone knows the vehicle of choice in a zombie apocalypse would be a big truck. We don't have the Marauder on ArmAII, unfortunately... But we have the SUV!!! Pros: -Realistic, non-military vehicle. -It's a very nice truck, test drive it in the editor! -It's not that tough, at least not as tough as an Ural, but it's fancy and looks great. To some people, that matters a lot. Cons: -More vehicles added. Not sure if this is a con or not. -Not sure if there are any more cons. Gimme yo beanz, and yo opinions.

I had a person spawn in while i was at stary sobor raiding the tents as i was picking up gear he popped up in front of me. I shit myself and started to unload in to him after 2 full mags of my ak he dropped dead and i found on his body. Anti material sniper, 1x MP5A5 1x PDW 12x Mags for the MP5A5 and PDW (they use the same ammo) Lots of food and supplys. A coyote backpack with 24 slots gps, range finder, NVG, I would of never killed him if i saw him walk in say hi and then start to grap loot but when he spawned in and i jumped a friggin mile i had no choice but to unload all over his face and think after *i bet that guy is p***ed off with me all that gear and its gone as he logged in... No i dont find this cheating as he shouldn't of logged out at a high player destined place he should of logged out just outside the area in the tree line that way he could of seen me popping in and out of tents and either asked over direct comms hey do you mind if i grab some supply's i would of kindly said sure come down here grab what you need and we will be on our way! Or if he decided to he could of just used his sniper and popped me of and had his way with my corpse, I have been on a vehicle hunt for the last few days now and i have found nothing and after my first kill the adrenaline was pumping, hands shaking, i have no found a new lust for blood. Now i dont kill to raid bodys unless they have the best weapon in the game but i do now kill take there map and replace it with mine just incase they have vehicles marked up on the map or if they have a hidden stash of goodys. so if i ever kill you make your way to your body and you can get your stuff back minus the best weapon in the game and your marked up map! i might take your beans and a soda as killing is hard work :)

I actually made a render of a 3d model of the car. It's a so-called HDRI-Render, which uses the image of the environment (called "old industrial hall") for lighting and reflection on the model. I also placed some spotlights in the scene and applied a fisheye lense to the 3d camera. So that gave me some basic light and shadow and reflection information. I then made a render and took the picture to photoshop, where I added the other parts from bits and piecesI found on the net (e.g. - just googled AK 74 for the weapon, and some photo reference for the guy). Then I painted in shadows and made his skin look broken, and I painted in parts of the hoody and the beard. I also added design and logo to the car, which was plain green in the render. Then I only had to mask out the windows and floor and add some texture. Finally, I added the "Dayz" logo as was decribed above. the entire process of creating this image took roughly 3 hours. It may seem a lot, but considering it is quite detailed and still has a painted quality to it, it's an okay time. The cool thing is, I can now create tons of new art, using the same setup, exchanging backgrounds and car models. I just don't model that many cars, so if any of you have more 3D models, I'd be happy to use them, too. I plan to use the Mustang for a more detailed and in-motion image, but I have to wreck it a little more first, which means remodeling. I also have a Citroen HY I modeled, which I might use in one of the next paintings. However, none of those are really Dayz vehicles. I do like modeling and rendering, but I love painting and painting over for quick results, design ideas and generally just creating key image content. Color theory is a good and interesting topic to start. I remember I watched some Gnomon DVDs initially that drew me to the matter. This isn't the one I bought, but it is probably even better than what I watched: http://www.thegnomon...Light-and-Color Here's the one I have (older) http://www.thegnomon...or#.UBrJgrQ0Okc Cheers mate, thanks for the kind words.

not butthurt you just think your a boss because you hop on an empty server and scoop up all the vehicles ,WOW YOUR AMAZING MAKE MORE VIDEOS/PICTURES , if your a real player you would post what server you play on and what time your on ect ooooooooh wait you did and someone fucked your shit up :( . anyone can jump on an empty server and pull this shit off. way to be a tool

They are vehicles, at some point you stop driving them. Real-time is irreleventAlso to the OP. There is an issue with server restarts not putting the vehicles ingame. I find they usually come back next restart.

Are you fucking kidding me? I mean there are a few bad admins but don't say the all are, and they don't have any powers unless they have bought a hack themselves. Those admins your hating on are the only reason you can play dayz you cheap prick. And strife none of that info is real time so it won't help you track down 4 vehicles AT all. I actually think the OP is encountering the age old no vehicle/tent glitch with the server. Try checking after another restart and they might be all back?

Oh shut up and stop spreading bullshit. Information sent to the hive is in the logs. Admins can see player locations, locations of vehicles, items in your inventory You're either not an admin so have no real business saying what they can and cant do, or you're an incompetent admin. Either way you're wrong. Same goes to you.

I can explain this to you as I've explained it to you IN-GAME multiple times. We, (The people you accused) do not, hack. The server, is running a private HIVE, which means it is not connected to the main HIVE. Therefore, the server Administrator can add and remove which vehicles spawn, such as helicopters, which have already been put into the game anyways, he just has added more than just the 1 or two that normally spawn. As for our vehicles, the server Admin has extended the number of vehicles that spawn, and as such more of the Day Z vehicles spawn in their locations around the map. We just went around and collected them. None of our weapons are hacked, because we have the helicopter, it is insanely easy to move from one end of the map to the other, and as such we can easily spot helicopter crash sites and raid NWAF or Stary Sobor within 5 minutes. I'm not even gonna bother watching these videos, but we had killed you and I looted your body to find a M4A3 CCO with, G36C SD mags on your body. You literally started raging over this whole thing for nothing. Screenshots of his body with G36C SD mags: http://imageshack.us...0200171419.jpg/ http://imageshack.us...0200172605.jpg/ You can't seem to get it through your head and are so bent over "THESE GUYS AR E HACKERS". We actually HATE hackers, and have help the server administrator come up with ideas to stop them. Things such as "Thunderdome" and other hacks piss us off and make us lose gear. I really have no idea why you think like this but I hope this clears things up.

I don't flame new players. I do wish they'd read the post below the post they're making that is 95% identical to theirs though. I will still help and give them advice to the best of my ability w/o hand holding too much. Where as people using scripts that completely remove all trees and buildings, or spawn vehicles, all weapons etc, port people around, turn them into animals.. not exactly the same. Sorry.

Hello, Here is my proposal on a really useful admin system but in no way that an admin can use it to find vehicles or players. Vehicle Information System: The menu system should popup like a window and have a list of options for the admin to use like buttons to press and drop down menus for vehicles to select. -Shows the list of gear items in it the layout should be like (QUANTITY)(ITEM) -Shows the list of previous drivers/owners and current driver. All the Day Z vehicles should have a unique name like if you pull up information on a ATV it should sort by name like ATV(ATV1) the ATV1 part is the unique name. You also should be able to find your unique vehicle's name when you enter it as a driver it should show up in debug monitor for a few minutes in Unique Vehicle Name: ATV1. The reason for this idea is that when a hacker or somebody has teleported your vehicle to them and admins have a better chance to track down who hacked it. If possible it should log when a vehicle has traveled vast distances in a short amount of time like example traveled 150m(Without showing the coordinates) in 5 seconds from its current location. Than again it shouldn't log it when the vehicle was destroyed so it doesn't flag it. It should notified the admin as well like Warning! ATV1 has traveled 1000m in 1 second and closest player is: PLAYER -Admins should be able to see all the vehicles in the server even the ones that are spawned and the admins should have the power to delete those spawned vehicles the only way the admin should be able to find the non spawn vehicle if it does not have a unique name. I'm sure hackers may try to find a way to unique name the vehicle. Player Information System: -This menu should give the admin information about a player and when they do it should show up all the items, weapons and previous unique vehicle names they was driving last. Good Layout Example: List of Last Drove vehicles within the hour: (ATV1, LADA1, URAL1) - The list should list all the vehicles that they drove within the past hour or two. (QUANTITY) (WEAPON) (QUANTITY) (AMMO) (QUANTITY) (ITEM) -This menu should also list items that they picked up within the past hour or two as well but only log it down when they pick it up out middle of no where and no where by a tent and give coordinates to admin so the admin can see where that location is and he/she can make a decision if that location where they got the weapon from is a legit area for a weapon to spawn at. This should list all the weapons, ammo, and items that they picked up in this area. If its possible I know the code doesn't give alot of options to log stuff. -Admin should give themself God-Mode but with god-mode enabled they shouldn't have no weapon on them or any sort of weapon for them to be able to use it against another player only reason for god-mode in case if they run into a hacker and they wish to follow the hacker until they see enough evidence to ban them. Also the admin should have an option to go invisible as well but same stuff no weapons or any sort of weapons equipped on them. I will tell you later on in this post where to put those weapons. The admin shouldn't be able to pick up any items or use it to get around zombies as zombies should still be able to see them. -Admins should see a notification on top somewhere or on bottom somewhere when a player loads a foreign script and the few bits of coding part of that script and the game scripts should be defined and the ingame scripts should be defined already so it wouldn't show every single script on the bottom of the screen but should show scripts that aren't in day z or built in game itself. -This should also warn an admin if a player has traveled over 300m within 1 or 3 seconds depends what you want to set interval to. This should also tell you also when a player is on a vehicle and teleports the vehicle with them over 300m with 1 or 2 seconds it should warn the admin to. Not sure if this is possible to do with the current game. When a teleported player travels over 1000M in 1 or 2 seconds but make sure that it doesn't do it when they die and they start over in a new area. But it should show that player's marker on the map to everybody in the server so atleast if that hacker teleports to somebody the player will have a chance to click Abort and back to Lobby before the hacker kills them. Also the player should be able to see their own marker on the map but does not show to other players in the server. Data Storing System -When a player pitches a tent they should given an option to name it and it should also check with the database and ensure nobody else has that name in that current server they are in. This is where the admin would be given an option to put their weapons at when they go into god-mode or go invisible. It should automatically put their gear items in the first tent they have pitched. Without a tent the admin wouldn't be able to keep their weapons if they do not have a tent but still can go into god-mode but a popup should appear warning the admin that they will lose their weapons if a tent was not found. -There should be a file that an admin can edit outside of the Day Z or edit in the dayz_server.pbo to list their in game admins but this system should also be working with BEC to ensure no outsiders can use the admin's name to login admin and use all the admin menus. -When a player joins in and their vehicle was taken it should warn the player that their vehicle was Stolen like etc "Your ATV1 has been stolen!" but do not log it down when a friend in their group takes it. Player Group System -A player should be able to invite friends to a group in game and this group of friends should get stored in the database by their GUID or unique player number. When their friend logs in it'll automatically put them in the group again. -A player that is in the group a player should have a menu option to open up Group Menu and from the group menu they should be able to send a private message to that player or tell either one, or selected, or all of the group members to meet a a certain location on the map and the player that gets the command have and option to say Yes or No for the Left Shift + Left Click marker to be placed on their map to go to. -Also in this menu the friend can add in notes for the group to know like where they last parked their ATV or vehicle at or where they move the camp to and etc. I mean this is about all I have for now for a system that will really help an admin track down hackers or find anything suspicious in a server. Because right now an admin is just like another player in the game.. just powerless. The logs doesn't show anything useful and plus it logs way to much in the scripts.log :P should exclude any day z scripts and in game built scripts. I know I'l be coming up with more stuff to add to this later on. It know its alot of work but it'l be totally worth it and should bring in more players I hope anyways to make up for the crap animations in game and game bugs not day z bugs but arma 2 born bugs.

Also the more laggy the server is the worse it will be. Plus if hive is lagging which you can't always tell from in game. If I find something I really want to keep, I stay on for another good ten minutes to be sure of saving. Also whenever I save a vehicle I save it, wait a few minutes, save it, wait a bit more, and save it again to be sure. We have had dozens of vehicles vanish for no reason at all and a few to bad saving by people as well.

Pretty sure that's not going to be the case. I seriously doubt DayZ stand-alone is going to have private servers. The rules exist because 90% of server admins are not like you. They would use the power to password their server in order to limit a server to their clan, farm gear and vehicles all day, and then use their server as a private safehouse storage and travel area in order to terrorize other servers. The power to kick/ban would be used to likewise limit access, or punish people who threaten their possessions or friends. It's nice that you're mature and planned to run a cool community, but you're the exception, not the rule I'm afraid. The rules are there for a reason. If you're not willing to follow them, that's cool. Just don't set up a server. There's really nothing else to say about it.

If you've been scouting for vehicles and only found One of them. That means the rest are being held by players at a Camp Site. Locating the Campsite and raiding is your key to several Weapons, Gear and Vehicles. Be wary, Once a Bandit.. Always a Bandit.

Vehicles are rare. They always will be rare. Just keep looking or raid camps. They have some.

I know a servers have the option to turn vehicle spawn off, I was wondering if the servers had the ability to only select what vehicles spawn? my group of about 10+ have been looking at all the vehicle spawns on the map and scouting around the map for a couple days for hidden vehicles etc, we cant find a single thing except for 1 broken ATV.. so my main question is can a server select what vehicles spawn? and if so how do we check if the server has made it so other vehicles don't spawn etc?

Looking to add a few more people to our group.We do NOT shoot on sight unless you have something we need ( mainly vehicles ) or you don't respond to voice communication. or aim a gun at us of course. Currently we have about 3 active every night with a few more friends that pop in and out here and there. Jake: I am pretty much the loot runner ( any supplies we need I risk my life to get ) Noel: A good friend off the forums who has been with us for a few weeks is our driver ( we normally have a vehicle every night ) Stick : He is our sniper/Overwatch as I am running through town/ Goes with me sometimes depending on the situation and severity Tubs : secondary sniper from different spot on map ( Does not like looting ) These are our mains and the others just kinda tag along as we are doing whatever. We are looking only for mature players as we are all 23+...I cant stand squeaky little kids screaming in my ear. So if interested please include Playstyle,Age,Location (we are all Eastcoast) what you can bring to the table ect..Mic is a must as communication is key for teamwork. We will have a dedicated server soon and don't expect us to just take you to our camp the first day we meet you but you will have access to our weapons and gear in our vehicle when we pick you up ( if you need any ) Either PM me or respond here. Thanks!

Hey guys, got a bunch of ideas that I would like to share, so hear me out. Backpacks: More backpacks. :lol: Clothing: I would love to have more clothing and clothing slots. Let's say the sun is really bright and you can't see well, wear a hat or some sunglasses and your good to go. Also if it's starts raining a jacket, stuff like that. Also totally agree on what Rocket said, once you spawn you could be a doctor or something like that, so you have different skins and skills. Skills: It would be nice if skills were a thing. Let's say you want to give a blood transfusion to a friend, and you have never done it, he gains only 2000 blood. With each blood transfusion you can give more blood and you gain skill. Also It would be very cool if you could cut wood, and make a bow, or a spear, also you would need skill. It would also be nice to have "skill books" for that, so you need to learn before you can do it, and then if you have friends you can learn them, stuff like that. Making items: Already mentioned bows and spears, I think it would be awesome if you could make traps and other things like that. Maybe even metal things if you had the skill and a furnace or something like that, but that's maybe already too much. Blood: I think it would be awesome that if you found a syringe you could give your friend your blood. Becouse I think you would be forced to do that in real life if your friend lost a lot of blood. Also think that, that if you have -3000 blood you can live only a short period of time if you don't gain blood somehow. Zombies: I think zombie attacks are bad. I was just walking about and then I saw a zombie, I went to kill him with my axe but he just knocked me over, I was bleeding and losing blood fast. It's really bad. I think at least if you have a hatchet that you have lower chances of getting hit, or getting wounded if nothing else, I think one zombie couldn't do crap against a good ol' axe, but okay. Weapons: All sharp objects like the knife should be usable weapons, maybe a little melee slot next to the primary and the secondary weapon? Also I think it would be cool if you could throw them, maybe I'm asking too much, idk. Vehicles: I think vehicles, at least cars and bigger ones should have way more space, I mean, I had a van and I couldn't fit more then two backpacks in it. What's with that? Also I think it would be awesome that when your in a forest you can use a "camo option" so you can throw leaves and stuff like that on your car to make it less visable, I already found 3 "hidden" cars, they are just so bloody obvious. Trains: I saw somewhere on the forums that someone suggested trains, I think that's okay, but maybe it would be better if he (Rocket) just added wrecks that you can loot like heli crashes, they would have food and maybe pistols, like a residential heli crash site. Medic supplies: I think medic supplies could also be found on randomly spawned medic trucks, stuff like that, wrecks as well as the heli crash site. Tents: I want more tent types, like shown in the offical DayZ video (the squarish ones) and also bigger tents like at military camps. Woodcutting: Since you can't place tents in some places, especially if there were bigger tents like the stary sabor ones I think It would be awesome if you could cut trees, which would produce noise, so you can make space for you camp. There is much more going on in my mind but I can't remember, so this is all for today, what do you think chaps? ^_^

I now have a nice little collection of the rarest guns you can get in the game...Also have 4 different vehicles! Yay!

As a Day Z player it's hard justifying the expansion packs just for the textures... I mean I'm pretty sure they add new missions, guns and vehicles in arma II.. but I don't play Arma II.. Ah well, we'll see. :]

Okay, so I got a server today. All the vehicles had gone except for one, which my brother took. He came on voice comms asking for admin, tried to login simultaneously, and it didn't work. Assuming that we could only have one on at a time, I clicked his name, and clicked 'Reassign' in server control. The server shut down momentarily, and his vehicle was gone. Please, oh wise ones... what have I done?
