Yes have had same issue, it's sometimes a bad server restart keep checking back maybe you will get lucky and it will all show up again. On a side note hoarding vehicles like that and giving away your location albeit not the server (by the way this area is a common hiding place) will only lead to heartache eventually, just accept you will lose it all and remember you found it once before and go on the adventure again. But I would advise against keeping all your eggs in one basket, 2 or 3 vehicles tops in one location.

Start off small, and work your way up. IMO bikes are the funnest vehicles in the game.

8 vehicles? Why the hell do you need 8 vehicles? Also yeah that sucks. I hate losing anything in this game that takes any time to obtain. It's Alpha, I didn't pay for the mod, I didn't pay for, or manage the server... it's to be expected.

I have seen numerous posts on the forums from admins/players , Complaining about hackers. Now whilst I know that some people do not have access to their own server files, I would urge you to consider hosting it yourself, rather than paying a company to do it for you. I will a few pro's and cons to each. Pro's of having it hosted elsewhere: Its 100% managed hosting It can SOMETIMES (will explain in a bit) be cheaper depending on your country. Usually the company have great support. Con's You have no access to the server files You get updated when the hosting company gets around to it, Whilst it is 100% managed, You have about 5% control UK105 hosts a consistent 40 Players. In the past month we have had 1 hacker, and that hole has been plugged. AND to top it off, We keep hackers at bay, By enabling a few simple scripts, having some external programs (BEC, RCon, BattlEye, Live GUID Checking) And some restrictions as well, If there is a signature check file that failed on a player, why risk it? We just don't let them in (This has about a 10% false alarm rate, The player only has to try and log in again and it always works), If a GUID does not verify, We dont let them in. We keep our server running fast with 3 scheduled restarts a day, that have warning timers for players in world. And we support our players VIA email all the time. We have issued 1 Ban for that 1 Hacker. we ALWAYS keep battle eye up to date, and we know 80% of the community use a launcher of some kind or another, so we always keep up to date with the same version as everyone else, minimising the downtime! I honestly cannot believe, that If we can reduce the amount of hackers to pretty much none on our server, that other admin's cannot do the same. Yes there are about 2% of hacks out there that bypass battle eye completely, but its nothing that can do some of the stuff I am seeing on here (Spawning all players to x, Removing all weapons from x, spawning vehicles that should not exist). We research all hacks available, Every good security guard/programmer/whatever knows that if you want to defend against attacks, you need to know what your going up against, we actively search for those hacks that can effect us, and then look for a way to block that hole. Sorry for the WOT, But I just had to get my 2 penny's out there, I simply cannot believe that some people are being hacked every day, every hour, and yet we are not! [Edit] Please note, we are not saying we are an un-hackable server that has defended everything and are the best, This is not the case as some people are trying to make out, No company in the world can defend from every attack and neither can we. We simple are trying to help all server admins defend their servers the best they can with the tools that are available, to those who want to listen, As stated if and admins want help/advise, we are more than happy to help.

So does anyone have any stories of a time where you thought your base was safe and then the server restarts and then BAM! it's all gone now. This time we were hidden just north of the PBX spawn, totally on the in game map on an undisclosed server with about 8 vehicles and 4 tents, the server restarted about 20 mins ago, log back on and shit just got wiped, all that hard work for nothing. Anyone else have any feelings of injustice when it comes to matters like this? This isn't the first time this has happened and really ticks me off that not only bandits and the likes can create a threat, but so can the game itself, completely negating my survival style of play making me think that maybe i should just grab my sniper rifle and join all the noob killers in cherno till they sort it out. This isn't a bitchy thread in the least just seeing if anyone else had had this issue.

Willing to trade for a SVD Camo. Happy to trade an "unfair" amount for it and can use vehicles to facilitate trade.

I don´t, what can you find there besides other well geared jerks hunting for some numbers in their stats? I´m alive since 9 days now, have a strong team with me (4-8 pretty geared and experienced players and vehicles) and we strafe from Berezino, Stary Sobor to NWA and back, just farming crash sites (still no night vision, tho :( ) When we encounter other players, they usually ran away when they see us :D We just gather vehicles and looking for some helicopters, I have ZERO murders and 100% fun :)

But on server restarts don't any spawned in items restart? Also does this apply for spawned in vehicles?

Hey Detta, AGE: 19 TIMEZONE: EAST HAD DAYZ FOR 3-4 WEEKS EXPERIENCE: I haven't owned the game for that long, but i do play fairly a lot. I know the game already and i know what i'm doing for the most part. I play to have fun but i do like to play serious and try to stay alive for the most part. I have decent gear. I have always been a lone wolf in DAYZ so i havent gotten to experience certain things like raiding, vehicles, or traveled the whole map yet. I mostly play around NW airfield, Cherno, stary. I have decent gear. Fav weaps: I haven't touched a whole lot of guns yet but my favorite ones so far are the m16 or m4a1, glock 17 or PDW, not a lot of sniping lol :]. More about me: I am very very friendly, i don't single anyone out, i love teamwork, im very trustworthy i do not/will not betray my fello team, i am loyal and once i join you guys i will stay with you guys for as long as you let me and i will treat you like family. That sounds cheesy but those are the best kind of groups. I can be serious and mature and i can be funny/goofy but i control it. I know when and when not to be silly. I play serious for the most part and try to stay alive. So Let's Play Guys! Steam: Thizzomatic9193 Skype: Thatfatkidisfat Looking forward to hearing from you guys!

They don't - think it was 24hrs and might be bugged to be even a few days.As far as players goes around the edge up to 1km could still work but if you manage to get to far you will get put back on the coast (with your stuff, since its like a bugged wilderness spawn) as of the current patch 1.7.2.4 Off map tents are invisible (unless you right click zoom up, but you cant use them either way). Vehicles don't get wiped, they might however respawn at some point. Saves you the trouble of running back to the coast! Walking offmap north with your new guns is shorter then walking down to cherno after hitting the airfield :thumbsup: - and you might even see some camps when running that way.--- If you have grass (foliage, not just the texture) below you your still on map. The road up lopatino stops at the end so if your still at it your on the map.

Hacked vehicles despawn after server restart, i think weapons do too.

If you're going to post about taking vehicles and raiding camps in a DE10 thread at least mention it was on a different server first. :P

If you stash tents or vehicles there it gets wiped. I'm not sure for players although it's frowned upon as it virtually guarantees a safe respawn.

Just curious. I know vehicles reset after 6 hours, but does anything happen to players?

I had fully repaired a offroad truck and drove it to Green Mountain. When I got to Green Mountain I popped a tire, I got out to fix it and I got kicked off by Battleye Script Restriction #55. When I got back on my vehicle was gone. Is it gone for good?

See that is the thing you CANNOT say that: 1. Locked server = cheating 2. That a locked server will equate to hoarding all vehicles and acquiring of all top gear Not all admins fit into your delusions.

I had gotten a ton of good gear, gps, map, FAL, pdw, antibiotics, and I was just on a server where I sighted two players near a crowd of vehicles and laid down and started shooting. One of the players in my scope disappeared like he logged out, so I focus on the other one, then suddenly the player that disappeared teleports behind me and kills me instantly. I'm not even going to play this game if shit like that goes on. What is being done?

Since there is no way in proving you know it is hacked, no. I think that only applies for vehicles. Although, if you do know it's hacked, be a man and dispose of it. Guns are an iffy. Just don't be a douche bag, discard of hacked stuff.

i think you may be right about that or something as it is a limited spawn of vehicles per server and most people just camp them at their base/tent till they get found or destroyed...i dont know the full details but thats about the basics of it :/

There is a limit on each vehicle on the map. The spawnpoints are public, look up for the DayZdb Map. When a player takes the car, the limit is in place. When it's not used for 7 days, it respawns. When it breaks, it respawns faster (<- inaccurate Information) Vehicles are often hidden in forests. But trust me, there is a good amount of vehicles on each server.

Hello everyone. Fairly new to this, (but we all are in a way, since it`s new) played for about 2 weeks before I made an account on the forum. In those 2 weeks I have played with about 15- 20 of my rl friends, we all have one thing in common, none of us have EVER seen a vehicle (that we could interact with). So my question is how is the Mechanics behind this? I know you can save vehicle on a server and it will stay on that server. But is it like in bf where when a vehicle is "in use" it can not spawn new ones? If there are only a few vehicles I am sure people who spend more time ingame then in rl will just camp these and keep them to themselfs for the rest of the game, leaving us searching the entire map for nothing? I can`t belive we have just been "un-lucky". As I said 15 - 20 rl friends, playing about 2 weeks now, a few hours every day, everyone searching for vehicles (and other stuff ofc). I just wanted to know this so I could stop searching if it`s pointless. Best Regards.

I could live with the meats idea, but the rest seems like unnecessarily complicating things just for the sake of complicating them. Vehicles already break easily enough that I don't really think this is needed.

So earlier I had a problem where people were being kicked for Battleye restriction 55 and now people are getting kicked for Battleye restriction 54... I searched the forums and google and can't find any information about this error. My recently rented server has the following versions running: DayZ 1.7.2.4 + Hive 0.7.2 ARMA2 OA Build 95417 The 54 error seems to be happening while people are driving vehicles and hit or run over any object. Any help will be greatly appreciated.

'Babes, Bikes & Buses' (Youtube) youtu.be/KK-0jR-7_ls After "Girls First Time", we ended up in Prigorodky hiding from a guy with a rifle... quite soon after we found a bus with just enough gas to get us to Otmel - saving a guy getting swarmed on the way, and killing three people in defense of the bus by the end.. It was the most intense few hours of DayZ I've played since starting on 1.5.6.. Ive mostly been messing around the coast but now that Ive tasted the sweet nectar of vehicles I am going hunting... After this I want to give people more of a chance to talk, but who wouldnt shoot someone aiming with an akm? EDIT - Ah fuck the title of the thread should be "Girls Second time"

The hacking in this game is a massive problem. It is on a scale that I have never seen before. To me this should be priority when versions are released not fixing helecoptors, or gun mechanics. Please put a focus on this devs and get it under control. I don't know what you have to do but if you don't do something I think your community will start to dwindle in numbers. I play with a group of 9 people and we play almost every day and almost every day we have some type of run in with a hacker. It's just not fun to get gear, get vehicles, and then get killed by a hacker. I am begging you devs to fix this. This game is amazing and I would like to see it succeed.
