What I think a lot of the last comments I think are missing is that you won't NEED to do this... it will be VERY minor skill improvments. And you could have options to do all the same stuff in game... Working on a gun or tool or cloths or whatever out of game (so long as the components have been gathered IN GAME) doesn't really affect anything... does it matter if you click "combine for M1014" while you're hiding in a bush ready about to log out, or if you do it out of game?... The fact that your character logs out makes it "unrealistic" lol. Your character should have to sleep somewhere and if someone finds you they can kill you lol... good luck with that... or the game forcing you to sleep for 6-8hrs... SURE lol.. This would be little stuff that wouldn't affect your in game process, you can't go find new bases or parts or weapons, you can only work with what you've found to date... I have NO clue where the Google Maps and discovering other bases crap came from??? WHAT? YOU have access to YOUR stuff if there is a private inventory system (keys for cars or locked/sealed bases)... if there isn't for vehicles or bases then it sticks to stuff that's in your inventory or backback... TOTALLY fair IMO.... Log off oil your gun, sharpen your axe, practice some shooting w/ever. People can't stumble across the items you have in your backpack or inventory while you're logged out now so there is no real difference... It will give people who are more into the game another outlet to tinker and a SLIGHT advantage but again nothing huge, 5 second recovery after running isn't a huge difference from 7 or 10, 4-5 bounces per second of the scope isn't THAT much better than 6-8... a good player will adapt to whatever the mechanics are... I can shoot a moving target while I need painkillers and have just stopped running... not EVERY time... but with reasonable accuracy... Whether or not it's in game, experience and practice make you better anyway. Anyway just an idea, I think it would add a cool layer of depth for super dorks and not create an unfair advantage at the same time.

I've been introduced to DayZ a couple months ago by this youtuber called DevilDogGamer. He has more of a serious, military, type of gameplay, and in the first episodes it definitely felt like a running simulator (he didn't cut frequently back then). But the situations that this game provides, involving human interaction, is something that I've never seen in other game. Most of it is because of the arma 2 universe, the size and complexity of Chernarus, vehicles, weapons, animals, down to the very bushy environment that can be used as cover, and bends when you crawl leaving a trail, etc. I still remember one day I was watching an episode and in the game something flew by the screen. I thought "wtf is that?".... I then went back and paused the video and was amazed by what I saw: a bee! (or some other flying insect). I was several minutes amazed by the fact that a game with such a massive environment had such small details as a bee flying around the player.

50 vehicles now spawn!

So I was just on this server about an hour ago doing pretty well. Gotten a ghillie of off some dead guy in a tent at stary. Found a MK.48 mod0 and an M107 + camo clothes at a heli crash site and got an SUV from where it is supposed to spawn at novy lug after the server admins finnaly fixed vehicles not spawning on the server. So the only thing missing from this pretty picture was a tent and while hunting for it my game just freezes and I get the message "you have been banned." No reason, no code, no nothing. I read in the motd that they check logs and the admin earlier said that they are suspicious of ppl who get good gear in a short amount of time so I reckon that what I'm dealing here with is a rather overzealous admin. Ofcourse I would like to see this ban lifted as soon as possible as it makes no sense whatsoever. P.S. Server IP: 176.57.135.203:2302

Does anyone have, or know where to find a complete list of vehicles enabled on Taviana? We are using Dayz.st, and I was wondering too is there an easy way to enable vehicles, that is without running an rmod server?

What's your policy on Combat loggers? I was on your Taviana.eu server and I had minimum 8 players combat log on me and my two friends, over a 4hr period. Finally we got fed up with it and left. Vehicles were always where you spawned though, that was really nice.

You're welcome to join our server and forum :) See here for more info http://dayzmod.com/forum/index.php?/topic/117214-uk777-dayz-taviana-maximum-vehicles-always-day-more/ At the minute there are about 6 different clans play regular, some friendly and some not very :lol:

Wrong game Ravey. The current plan is to have all servers connect to a single public hive with a list of predefined settings for customization (first person, third person, view distance etc but nothing crazy like we see in the mod with extra vehicles, custom loadouts and stuff like that. You can't prevent people closing down servers they are paying for, that's unreasonable although the damage will be lessened with all servers sharing a single hive (just need to spread your tents across various servers) Admin abuse is a tricky one and I'm not sure how they plan on handling that to be honest. Having a "Code of Conduct" simply doesn't work IMO and I can't really think of a practical alternative.

Remember, though, that you could be banning someone who hasn't actually cheated (or broken any in-game rules). If a cheater spawns something--then another player finds the vehicle and flies it--are they really deserving a ban? Granted, it's not the smartest choice to pilot a hacked vehicle, but it's also not technically against the rules. Think of how many bambis would jump into a vehicle and press keys without knowing what they even do. Then think of the opposite side too: if a cheater knows they can spawn vehicles and tell people to pop the flares (to get them a ban they don't deserve), it's just allowing them more ways to raise Cain in our servers. I would say "no" on that--but I suppose that's up to each server's admin. With the amount of banlist sharing that goes on, I think people could be unfairly banned if the only criteria for banning is firing of flares in createvehicle.txt Just my $.02

If anyone in the know is reading this I'd REALLY like some help. Gameserver.com is clueless.... I went through and destroyed EVERY duplicate vehicle many of them at their spawns... they keep coming back in doubles... sometimes right on top of each other so the clip or destroy themselves if someone fixes them.... PLEASE HELP I REALLY don't want to have to wipe the server and bone all the people who have legitimately stocked up tents and repaired vehicles.

IP/Port: 67.228.177.161:3374 We had to change maps due to too many bugs with Taviana 1.5. We tried Celle but didn't care for it, so we are now on Taviana 2.0(dayztaviana.com) instead of Taviana 1.5(dayzland.eu). Features: * Start with a Makarov and 1 magazine * over 350 fully repaired vehicles spawn with each server reset, so it's easier to get around * 20 additional Barracks strategically placed around the map. * Replace some of the natural spawning vehicles with more practical ones (Bus with Limo, Tractor with ATV)

You didnt mention where you are located. We have a fAirly new uk server (5 days old, check signature) and we are looking for more people to have mor pvp action. It has lots of vehicles and 24/7 dAytime. Cheers

Get rid of pdots and 3rd person camera. Each is just a watered down version of a wall/esp hack built into the game. Get rid of the M107 and AS50, and make the other sniper rifles more rare in general. Don't get me wrong, because I like to snipe as much as the next guy and always carry a sniper rifle when I can. But snipers are a specialized unit. They aren't that common. Yet every survivor is a sniper in DayZ. Remove weapons with thermal scopes. Add more weapons with iron sights. Get rid of helicopters. Again, don't get me wrong, I like to fly too. It's fun piloting a huey. But they'er WAY too common. They can traverse the map in a couple of minutes. And combined with 3rd person and pdots, camps and vehicle stashes become all but useless. And honestly, how many people are pilots in relation to the population. Yet in DayZ, everyone is a pilot. Make zombies smarter and tougher. As it stands, DayZ has become hardcore death match. I love PvP, but I can get that with regular ARMA missions. Zombies at the moment are looked on as more of a nuisance. If you can't improve the AI and pathing, at least make them hit harder, and make infection likely with each hit. Add some kind of inhibitor to slow the rate of infection til you can find a cure. This will make hospitals even more important. Balance the map a little more in terms of markets, industrials, etc (not military), so that there's more action throughout the map and it's not so limited to Cherno, Elektro, Berezino, Stary, and the airfields. Add more vehicle spawns. It just makes sense. Not sure why they're so rare. And it'd help solve the prolbem with vehicle hording. Make it so that trees and bushes render better at distances, so that players can't abuse low settings to find tents and vehicles. Add contruction to the game beyond wire fencing, tank traps, and sand bags. Make the constructions look plausible to the setting, such as wooden fortifications. Release the game with parameters in place to prevent or discourage Alt+F4'ing and server hopping. Make nights brighter, and limit or prevent gamma correction. Although I like realism, the simple fact is that pitch black nights empty servers. Most players don't like running around with flashlights and chemlights that basically turn them into beacons for bandits. The servers I frequent have made every night a full moon to help keep them populated. I prefer that approach to the 24/7 daylight solution. And for cryin' out loud, make it so that zombies spawn at the presence of vehicles. It'd ridiculous the mod has went this long without this being implemented. It makes absolutely no sense that zombies do not spawn from vehicles being present. But make sure they each have a realistic audible range. In mods that DID implement this change, bicycles brought every zombie in the city running at your approach.

So much misinformation in this thread Hackers can execute scripts on any/all player on a server, making you dance, giving you a debug monitor, or like you described giving you a menu you can use to teleport, spawn weapons, vehicles etc. You can't be globally banned for using this menu unless you were the person who executed it. Server admins may ban you from their own server if they see you using it regardless of whether you were the person who executed it or not. The server will need to be restarted to remove it. You are best playing elsewhere until then.

Just like the subject line says! Tired of no vehicles? Tired of unresponsive admins? We are a mature and honest server -- and, we have day jobs! We love DayZ, however, it's not our life! Taviana map, always daytime, and a custom loadout! Join us.... 173.192.200.76:3289

Servername: DayZNamalsk | Ugola | PVP! Spawn with sniper-rifle! [Daylight & More Vehicles] IP: 128.65.221.157:2302 Auto restart: every 4h (Time reset / 24h daylight) Tot Reset: every 72h Added Vehics atm: around 110 Hi Our intention is to create a PvP-Survival mixture. You will start with a scoped rifle (atm: DMR), some bullets, some bandages and one heatpack. We added some loot what we think is typical for Namalsk (warm clothing, broken food delivery trucks). The PSI event and the Bloodsuckers are also enabled. We want some PvP, but not the way of a straight-hill-sniper-party. You have to do some survival things and thinking about your position on Namalsk (PSI event). Ugola think DayZ should be a suvival game and NOT a deathmatch shooter but PvP seems to be very popular atm. Like I said we try to mix some PvP AND survival stuff. If you like this way give us some feedback. We are able to add general STARTGEAR (we need your reasons to change it) and LOOT on Namalsk. We can change daytime, total server reset and some other stuff. IT DEPENDS on your suggestions and reasons for this. Please don´t debate in general about DayZ if it is a survival or a PvP game at all. Like I told you, Ugola think its a survival game but PvP seems to be very popular. Regards Ugalol Community wish / changes: ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- ------ We post changes based on your suggestions here------------------ ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

I had to smile at the Private Hive Servers that are appearing - "MAX VEHICLES", "MAX CHOPPERS", "CUSTOM LOADOUTS" etc etc ! Kind of defeats the purpose of DZP doesn't it ?

Are you just playing on Chernarus? I had more luck on other maps for vehicles. In fact compared to other maps, I have only found vehicles back when i used to be a camp killer (Find other players camps and destroy everything there) Some players are too scared to lose vehicles and hide them away from other players, pussies.

i play like you, same strategy dealing with the big cities..i stay without problems in special occasions, like spotting people with heavy gear, or if i find a vehicle(once i fixed the famous motorcycle at the gas station of cherno, and actually two others were repairing that) i also team up with a friend and go for military spots or vehicles, and this often causes our death. i like the hermit style..you get some decent gear from deerstands and it's quite funny to spot people in the distance and trying to see what they are doing..

Max vehicles corresponds to the maximum amount of vehicles possible on the map at any one time, 250 is a lot. That can entail several choppers and planes. A normal DayZ server would have a Helicopter limit of 1 for example.

I've been propositioned a few times by heavily armed people in vehicles as a fresh spawn literally right next to where I spawned. I try not to give them the satisfaction and just let them have their kill. They're assholes, but it happens, and I go on with the rest of my day.

If you want the real DayZ experience, then you need to play on servers with less than 100 vehicles. 250 vehicles means you'll have one working within 30 minutes of spawning, and then you can drive everywhere, which isn't what the game is about.

It means they've modified their server so WAY more vehicles spawn everywhere. In normal default DayZ vehicles are rare and sought/fought after. I personally think it's kind of cheesy when vehicles are everywhere. It takes away the novelty of finding or seeing one.

Basically means more than the normal spawn, I assume. Like 250 vehicles plus the normal ones? Max Vehicles is a toughie, since there seem to be an unlimited amount you can put in. I've seen servers that say they have 1000 vehicles. It's hellish. Don't play on those if you want an DayZ experience as it should be.
