Really nice update. Had a friend desperately trying to login before the patch hit to pack up his tent, with no avail though. Which vehicles are currently available ingame, and which aren't? We had 3-4 guys scouting known helicopter spawn points for most of last night, across a multitude of servers, but with no results - so I'm assuming that (for the time being) they haven't been re-implemented?
-
Yeah - my build notes were AWFUL. It took about six hours longer than expected. It was painful, tensions were running high, teamspeak was not a happy to place to be. Being the wall of my apartment or an item on my desk was not either. Save %1 should be "save whatever", it allows you to manually force the save of an object (maybe). needs more testing. Most updates will now occur during the week. Weekend will be left without any updates unless things are critical. Focus now is on reducing the graphical glitches, confirming vehicle/tent saving (please report here). Once that is confirmed, add more vehicles (no update needed for that) test capacity. Then its probably more content, more tented camps and etc...

Relating "Vehicle managment". What does "Save 1%" mean? Can you save vehicles manually now? Will they survive server restarts now? Is the equipment saved properly now?
-
I think vehicles spawn using the BIS function "BIS_fnc_findSafePos". This will ensure they don't spawn in/on buildings or whatever. _position = ([(getPosATL _object),0,100,10,0,500,0] call BIS_fnc_findSafePos); apparently this function has a tendency to spawn things in the middle of the Island if it fails to find a safe position (or something to that effect, there's a post of BI forums about it). So maybe find the center of Chernarus and they'll be a vehicle graveyard lol! p.s I am not an amazing sqf scripter so the above may not even be correct but it looks like it's the code to spawn in vehicles.
-
frankly, the PMC campaign and vehicles are so underwhelming, that it just isn't worth buying it just for textures at its Sprocket price.
-
That would be quite awesome. And as far as I could see it fixing the spawn positions of items and zombies to the other island would only involve getting their positions on the maps and adjusting the coordinates of the stacks. Yet I haven't found out how the vehicles spawn. Maybe its even made manually into the database at the creation of a server database because they are persistent. The only real challenge would be the transition from one island to another with a character. I guess you would have to rely on default spawns like the respawns if you are dead and a flag in the database to show which island he was on to trigger it.

I just posted this in another thread, but here: Low Resolution Blegh Same-photo Comparisons/Demonstration of low-res textures. High Resolution PMC skins (weapons' date=' vehicles, and units) :heart: [img']http://www.arma2.com/images/stories/arma2PMC/Arma2-PMC-ingame-sshot-04.jpg

Can any DayZ staff confirm whether >all< vehicles are currently available ingame? Checked multiple spawn points for helicopters on 14 different servers, nothing. Seen a Jeep on a couple of servers, but no helicopters.

-
On a related note seeing as vehicles are now more prominent in general - if you get a certain distance away from chasing Zeds, do they stop following you? Obviously it's pretty hard to do that on foot, but on a push bike...

As mentioned in this thread about vehicle problems on FR1, when servers go down, vehicles don't always return. Yesterday's crash of US4 and US5 for a few hours ended up with a lot of missing vehicles on restart. In the past, a second server restart generally has the vehicles showing up again in their same positions, so far with the crash that hasn't been the case. Who all has experienced this? Is this a widespread issue or specific to certain servers?

USELESS TENTS - stuff inside gets deleted
Felix (DayZ) replied to drakenof's topic in DayZ Mod Troubleshooting
Is that issue tied in with vehicles not showing up after a crash? Whole motor pool disappeared after some US servers came back up after crashing hard yesterday. -
[v1.5.4] Stuff not spawning/slow logins/Data Saturation
Deviant (DayZ) replied to jtime's topic in DayZ Mod Troubleshooting
Vehicles and Barbed Wire / Tank Traps / Sandbags are disappearing. Had a motorbike wayyyy out in the boonies. Would be impossible to find unless you knew exactly where it was. Spawned in after leaving for an hour, and it was gone :\ -
Also missing vehicles on ANZ 1 and 2. :-(

Oceanic Server Discussion

We're still testing server performance and tweaking things. ATM, we have 45 slot server, and another 25 slot server. NZ server is also up atm with 25 slots. All slots of course are full within seconds of a server going up, LOL. This is with 100% ANZ players too. That's an awesome amount of demand for our region. Only problem is no vehicles are spawning on ANZ servers :( -
Is anyone sure exactly on how the vehicle spawn/respawn process works in the current version? I know a server starts with a certain number of vehicles on the map, but after time these vehicles tend to become abandoned or destroyed. What is the logic governing how these vehicles return to existence, or if return at all? I only want facts on this. Rumor mongers need not apply to this thread.
-
They supposed to respawn after server restart on spot where they were wrecked. But right now vehicles saving is really messed up.
-
Do Vehicles respawn? If someone crashes a Huey does that mean we will never see it again on that server? Also noticed when a Huey crashes its kicks you because of battleye for script error #12 or something. And do Vehicles spawn randomly or always the same area?
-
I'd love to see about 5x as many spawn points with a MUCH more random distribution between them. As someone else said wrecked vehicles could be a source for *something* and every town, village and farm should be worth taking the chance to explore it. The fact that most experienced players know the airfield is THE place to go for top shelf gear speaks volumes about random placement. Again, part of being an experienced player is simply knowing which buildings are enterable and which are not... which are worth risking zombie-itis on a search and which are not. More low level gear/food/water around more buildings would help curb the experienced player advantage (as far as searching goes) and be more realistic at the same time. (Why isn't there a usable water well in every town, village and farm?) I'd prefer it if the same weapon/gear was almost never found in the same exact location. This would also help control get loot/disconnect/join other server/get more of the same loot, rinse and repeat.
-
It would be nice to see. I think there's a vehicle issue that causes lag so a lot of vehicles would not be a good idea. As a bike is classed as vehicle. Unless they managed to resolve that issue then, bikes spawn please! :)

USELESS TENTS - stuff inside gets deleted
rocket replied to drakenof's topic in DayZ Mod Troubleshooting
It's mainly related to referencing. The thing that broke DC, fixed characters (your avatar survives your disconnection). I switched to a new method of referencing tents that is more robust, but figuring out when a tent inventory has changed is problematic. Also, getting my new referencing method (generating a UID out of the position and orientation) has some issues, so "word isn't getting through" On a non-busy server it works. On a busy one, it seems that it generates the UID before it can set the orientation. Meaning that the UID is wrong. Changes in 1.5.5 should fix this. The messages get through, but it has the wrong UID. So I hope this fixes it. Vehicles are a bit more complex, cause those fuckers move. -
Wanna know my reason?, simple less survivors more supplies,weaponry,and vehicles..im taking chernarus..

Some new player questions ? And a little suggestion
pingzite replied to dskpnk's topic in DayZ Mod General Discussion
Tents and vehicles can only stay on the server you left it. When i repaired my first police car i hid it away when i needed to log, and used it as a bonus storage for loot. I always play EU7 And only log off somewhere near where i hid my car. So i know where to find it agian. -
Bases, vehicle ideas and spawn beacons.

Oh, yes. I also forgot one thing: I would also like rare spawns of military grade stuff around military vehicles (the crashed/burned out HMWWs everywhere)
