Approximately 20 minutes ago (11:53PM CDT) I was banned from the Dallas 54 server with the listed reason as Cheating/Hacking. At the time of the ban I was riding an ATV with 2 friends in other vehicles in tow. At the time of the ban my name was "Purple People Eater" but I run under 3 aliases on the server - "[rG]Kataclysm" and "[MiG] K" as well. Looking for a response from one of the Vigilant Addiction admins hopefully soon.

I like the idea. I mean, otherwise, you're a sitting duck in a vehicle. Granted, you have the ability to (usually) out run your enemies shots, but other than that, vehicles are pretty much the glowing essence of 'shoot me!' all packaged in a 50 to 70kph can.

For the first time the majority likes my idea. Wow. I also want to have more vehicle spawn points. At least for motorcycle / ATV. Vehicles should be more common. In my eyes every tenth player should have a vehicle. Makes more fun to chase them, steal them etc etc I see what you did there. :huh::huh: You like to walk ? -1 ? I also like color blue. You dont? -1 for that ?

Same thing that stops a group of bandits from using the vehicles that are already in-game as a way to kill people who investigate the noise, or stopping a sniper from camping a stopped car and killing anyone who gets close to it.Abso-fucking-lutely nothing. So what's your point?

Surviving a full on zombie zerg rush in the middle of a night with a friend in flarelight, back to back. There were around 50 zombies who swarmed us as we were looting a barn. I threw down a flare and we locked down the place with our lmg's, zombies just kept on coming but god bless those 100 round mags and onehit kills We have found a few heli sites and looted NW airfield, neither felt as good as the atmospheric encounter of a horde in the red flarelight. We haven't found vehicles yet, maybe those will prove out to be as exciting

I know most of them are set to despawn if unused after X amount of days, but is that based off real dates or how long the server has been running? If a server was down 7+ days, then brought back online, would it instantly despawn all the vehicles on the map?

Haven't played Insurgency in a long time. A decent way to kill time is also to open up the editor, double-click on the map, press enter and then press preview. This will drop a rifleman into the map editor. After that, experiment with dropping different units/vehicles/enemies into the editor and preview it.

Thanks I appreciate the positive attitude am trying exactly what you said. I logged in after to check for clues and we only left the base who took our vehicles with a bus and dirt bike and shot all the tires out. Near our camp there was a bus with fully shot out tires... My friend said they most likley all got in the bus and someone teleported the bus to our location after using the vehicle finding script and shot at us. Its just so blatantly obvious I hope that these people can atleast get inconvienced by having to repurchase the game and reinstall it to get around the ban.

Do you happen to have a time and date that this happened? There is only one other Administrator on the server besides myself, and neither of us have vehicles. We have been having some server issues recently - going down and whatnot, I'm trying to figure out what is going on there. Like Clinton said though - Server Admin's don't have that much power to turn the server off, hide it from the list - and move the vehicle while the server is down. Seems like a bug to me.

After Action report: Operation Pusto Cache After Action Report: Pusto Cache 1. Overview a. Leader: Commander Todwarter, Operatives: Androctons, STGSLAY Jr. Operatives: Computer(Cory), Taco b. A congratulations and thank you goes to Junior Operative Cory a.k.a. computer. Junior operative Cory discover the campsite on routine patrol northwest of the Northwest airfield. He alerted his commanding officer , Cmdr.Todwarter to the camp. Cmdr.Todwarter formed a assault team of five Elysium squad members. The squad then track 5000 m North West towards position of the enemy cachet of tens and vehicles. Upon arriving there was 10 tents and seven vehicles. Dear ranging from Fal 308 battle rifles, DMR’s, MP5 suppressed, in 16 different variants and much more. To summon up the camp was a hotspot for gear. To hostile's Crow and Germany were seen in the area. Operative SGTSLAY fired upon them, causing them to run west of the campsite. Cmdr.Todwarter track their movements upon the enemies going undercover he fired at them with a DMR sniper rifle. Hit Crow on his first shot both hostile was disconnected, proving that they were disconnect warriors even though is banable offense. Germany reconnected after server hopping to gain a better position then managed to kill Junior operative Cory as he was feeling a V3S truck. Operative Andro fired upon Germany with a 240 machine gun killing the hostile cheating player. 2. Goals and Objectives To kill any hostile's at the cachet of tens and vehicles. To destroy all vehicles and tents after gear was collected. 3. Analysis and Outcome Besides the death of Junior operative Cory the mission was a success. We managed to destroy a well-established campsite and gear up for later operations. We killed two well armed bandits/survivors and the process. A defeat made even sweeter because of their regard for Rockets rules about disconnecting. The server is to last well armed new players. As a result of our operation. 4. Summary After all the loot was gathered and supplies loaded up in the truck. We then blew up the vehicles with frag grenades and DMR rounds and ran over all the tents destroying the campsite completely. As the procession was going back to our base Crow log back in and died immediately of his wounds received from Cmdr.Todwarter DMR bullet to the chest.

Yeah, there's another clan who has made Atlanta 59 their home server. Might be them who possess all the vehicles. Kudos for finding their camp, really. I didn't know it was off map, all I knew was GPS coordinates. Cheers.

Still, his camps off map, and that's not exactly nice and thus his camp is now the publics camp. I highly doubt the vehicles aren't spawning because there are bikes spawning, just no cars on the spawn points which means someone has moved the vehicles.

I'm good friend of Florida, the admin. I know that's his base along with others. They're a solid bunch of people and they're really fair. I occasionally hit their camp up and take some gear when I need to (read: not leeching!!) Cool that you stumbled upon it, kudos! Nothing of real value however. :( And they don't have the vehicles, as far as I know. They're quite baffled themselves and are considering filing in a bug report for missing vehicles. Cheers!

Someone got there before you then :( There was two ANPVS 4 an M4 CCO SD and a FN FAL. Vehicles? Not sure yet, still looking, but i'm sure they're somewhere off map too since we've looked EVERYWHERE On the map.

Been there. There's only one FN FAL and some welfare weapons, nothing of significant value. Didn't spot any vehicles either? Help?

So the last couple of days we have been hit by hackers on a daily basis. I am sharing some logs so hosts can add it to scripts.txt and maybe some hosts can give me some insights or hacks they logged. Spawn tank above players head. 02.07.2012 09:36:47: 1SickKunt (50.138d4dc - #28 if (isServer) then {_object = createVehicle ['M1A1_US_DES_EP1', [6769.88, 2644.45, 0], [], 0, 'CAN_C used tanks ['M1A1', ['M1A1_US_DES_EP1', Spawn airplane wreck. if (isServer) then { _object = createVehicle ['C130J_wreck_EP1', [4636.58, 9904.19, 0], We log isServer now. Complete log http://pastebin.com/k5KdgY9C The real fucked up part is, they make the other players/server ? execute the script. I find a friend who just bought the game executing the lines at the bottom of the pastebin. And of course on top of that they found a way to spawn in vehicles without it logging not using createVehicle ? To Finnish the topping they seem perfectly fine driving/flying them around and not blowing up,ejecting into the air or whatever rocket thought of adding. Today we had in between the hive DDos fun some kid who made our players go fly and drop dead. but we haven't looked at the logs for that one yet. PS: [4636.58, 9904.19, 0] as far as i am able to read rpt and scripts.log this is a the location of spawn correct ? these are the grid cords ?

It's not bullshit. He got the coordinates from the green mountain radio messages. Which was a hoax... btw, I've been to the NW corner, I used to stash vehicles there. So I know there isn't shit there...try harder.

they DO spawn with gear, my friends rented a server for a while, and we hit up all the best vehicle locations early. The BAF offroader spawns with like 40 stannag mags (20 silenced) and some other random gear. the ATVs usually have some tents. The UAZ has 20 SVD mags and like 10 frag grenades... vehicles DO spawn with loot, at least some do, but like cars and stuff.. prolly not.

Your wrong about the BAF A550..... theres already a KSVK Russian anti-material rifle modeled and ready to go in the vanilla game. Also..... in the ARMA 2 Campaign the US Army/Marines invaded Chernarus. They took over military bases and probaly after the war was over probaly left a garrison of a few thousand troops equipped with Western weaponry and vehicles there. Which is why you see Huey"s and HMMWV"s every place you look. (Also the Chernarus military is given western weaponry and funding.... that is why if you play a match of Warfare in Vanilla ARMA as CDF you start with an M16) We should not remove any Western guns,but add more Russian weapons yes, And everyone can have there own personal weapon of choice. Whether you like AK"s or M16"s. Case Closed...... Learn the story of Chernarus before making suggestions folks

You've stumbled upon another players bus, most likely. Vehicles contain next to no loot in them, apart from some food, soda, wood piles etcetera, but nothing of great importance.

Map is also littered with wrecks of military vehicles and convoys. It would be awesome to see some loot spawn in these vehicles. Maybe a low/very low chance of mid-tier stuff (ammo, rations, equipment) but mostly nothing or just junk. Chance of finding something should still be high enough to make every wreck worth checking even though in most cases you find nothing. Also locations of wrecks could be randomized in every restart?

This stuff has escalated with the game's popularity. The vast majority of vehicles you see on servers are hacked. It takes this much code to spawn a working helo next to an ammo box with full kit inside. xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx The amount of code that goes into killing everyone on a server is about this long. xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx And a retarded 14 year old with a Jr. High Visual Basic Class under his belt can do this with a little research and a helmet.

I'm telling you, it's impossible unless he's a hacker. An admin, alone, can't spawn vehicles. I'm speaking from personal experience here as I'm an admin myself.

Admins can't spawn vehicles. I don't know if you're tripping on a laced joint or if you've managed to get on a pirated server with all sort of shady shit.

glock is european (austria) and widely exported, lee enfield is european (uk) but too old to be so common (as well as winchester) and I would make them less common and/or replace them with some russian alternative. But rest of the weapons, I dont really see problem. Include more CZs like CZ75 which was really favourite in eastern block, CZ805 Bren, Scorpion etc. those guns fits in but I dont see fitting with historical american gun like winchester. But lots of guns you mentioned are european (m1014 is italian, m249 is belgian, m9 is in fact italian and exported incredibely etc.) or heavy exported american (m16s, 1911, remington, m24 etc.) but mainly used for law enforcement and/or military in eastern block. It is a incredible stereotype that every post soviet country is now equipped with AKs and RPGs. Czech republic always had its own weaponry - CZ, bulgaria uses HK/steyr and AK in their arsenal, ex-yugoslavia (where is chernarus, i believe) uses mainly nato guns and russian vehicles - like croatia, bosna etc. I mean Chernarus is not Iraq... its copy of montenegro (Chernagora in russian). So I believe that guns will be fitting if you reduce those historical lees and winchesters. CZ 550 is hunting weapon so i believe its ok that its there. I would love to see more CZs though, especially 75 and 2000 ;) I am slav if you ask and I live in europe so I have first or second hand experience - I travel to ex-yugoslavia a lot. Buthey, i am no rusophile so maybe thats why i would restrict this idea a little.
