You can now refill jerrycans from vehicles depleting their fuel!

Tents are safe 100% checked and confirmed personally...as to vehicles not sure as I don't have one on my server atm. Depends on how 'hacked' your server is, in my case there were buildings every 100-200 meters...ALL over the map, cities, forrest area's...middle of lakes...so in my case a few reset vehicles were the least of my worries The page you download the modified pbo file from says that it only resets vehicles that have been hacked in to unplayable area's (debug plains/middle of ocean), I assume they are safe but cannot personally tell you yes or no I'm afraid

Auto-repair depends on how damaged it is. You can repair helis by just hovering over a repair line with scrap metal. Vehicles won´t auto-repair if they´re damaged a lot.

@BoomyGT: Yes, sounds great! IMO, the only way to achieve such epic experiences in the game, is to rewamp the way zombies spawn entirely. Currently, players cause zombies to spawn, i.e. zombies only spawn where there are players. Also, the spawning is very glitchy, and zombies continue to spawn wherever there are players. Also, players in vehicles neither spawn zombies, nor does zombies attack vehicles. As it stands, this does several things for the game: It makes it non-sensical, or at least impractical, to have independent zombie events it makes it impossible to clear a town or area of a town completely It gives players invehicles an unfair advantage when hunting other players However, if zombies get to spawn independently of players, this is what we get: Independet zombies that wake when they catch the scent of players and aggro when they do stupid shit. Some of them will cluster into hordes who roam the map in search of food, and then gravitate towards those places where the most players are (heh, the places giving off the most scent of the living blood of Christian men), creating that classic scenario of the fort that becomes overrun. The players then have to react to this, either by cooperating, or by hiding their ass in the bush. Towns can be taken and defended (giving a natural place for the KOS'ing sniper), and wars can break out over places that provide good resources and defense. And when the horde of zombies pass that bridge where those two quarreling players are in the middle of shooting each other, they will be fucked if they don't stop for a moment to cooperate. Zombie instances only spawn where there are NOT players - of course after a sensible algoritm that doesn't swamp memory. Zombie skin and texture, things that require memory and computing power, can for instance still be triggered by player presence. The main thing is that the zombie instance are med independent of players. Some of these instances need not be sleeping, but can cluster together into independent hordes that roam the map, or infest a certain town. When done that way, it becomes much more easy to make those classical hordes of zombies that you're used to from the lore, the books, the films, the TV-series. But it can only be done with a model that spawn zombie instances outside of player activity. @That1neguy: No! (Also, you're stealing the thread. Stop it!)

Normally, bicycles and motorcycles self-repair when damaged; the wiki says that this is normal, and is due to them having a different database or something (which doesn't really explain why, but okay). And, of course, other vehicles than those normally do not self-repair when damaged. However, I've observed on a number of servers, both public and private-hive, discrepancies to this rule. One time, I had a bicycle (public server) which would not self-repair like the others. And just today, I found an automobile (private server) which does self-repair (unlike the other autos on that server don't). What's the story?

Hey all, I remember reading a while ago that rocket is looking at putting armbands into DayZ to help group players together and identify friend from foe. I've got an easy first step for this to be effective and it wont take alot of coding at all. As I'm sure some of you will be aware that Arma 2 supports clans with something called a Squad XML, basically this is a third party server which a clan can list all of its players on, give them a squad tag aswell as a logo, said logo shows up on the default USMC and Russian forces sleeves and several vehicles ingame in Arma 2 and CO. I'm simply suggesting that Rocket adds this squad XML layer onto all of the ingame skins, that way clans which have set up their squad XML's correctly will be able to see their logos on their characters sleeves. Thoughts gents?

Hi im sure im not the only one who has asked this but i am unsure as to how long a vehicle and a tent willl last before dissapearing? for example if i don't save my vehicle how long will the car and the gear last for? Thanks alot guys!

All new server up and running. Right now we have our server open to the public but on the 1st of NOV we will be turning on our whitelisting so get in now and see how you all like it. Whitelist info can be found on our website at Battalion of Honor

I purchased a server from HFB servers last night. I'm wondering how I can add more vehicles to the map I also want to make it so that people can spawn with a pistol and a map.

hey we just started our server 2 days ago, there are 74 vehicles, side chat. its a bliss server so we run anti hack mods and can run scripts to delete hacked items barbwire ect. we currently have 3 groups of 3- 5 people and a few regulars. we just switched from vilayer.com to HFB because of reliability and modification options and expect to have the server at least until standalone comes out. the admins are from canada, we have 2 in -7, 1 on east coast 1 on west coast so the times would work great if you wanted some friendly pvp action too. just search "free beer" to come join us.

Dedicated Admins and Up 24 hours a day, 15 min backup and 110+ whielisted so far. Average about 30 people now a night. http://dayzmod.com/forum/index.php?/topic/96456-private-hive-whitelist-15-minute-backups-20-admins-no-side-chat-70-vehicles-nfo-chicago-pure-dayz-experience/ We love to get squads in, very competitive play.

Does this only get rid of hacked stuff? tents and vehicles are safe?

I'm working on a custom version of dayz myself. i have slowed down zombies to walking and increased there numbers, made them attack vehicles, spawn even if your in vehicles and loot spawns while your in vehicles. Currently I'm trying to adjust the rate of ammo and food to make it hard to come by. The idea of just ammo with weapon spawns didnt occur to me so imma try that. If anyone can think of some other stuff to try I'd love to hear it.

Brilliant server, loads of vehicles but more importantly admins are a great bunch of guys always happy to help someone out and very dutiful in keeping hackers out. Building a nice group of players on here, come join us!

Hehe vehicles can be a real pain in the ass, best time is to snag one after a restart. I'm not sure if vehicles respawn tho since they fixed tents and vehicles in a previous patch.

Today, travelled ALL THE WAY from NW airfield to the east coast and near Berezino, still not finding any vehicles, even a bike. I'm having such a good time....

Hi TheH I'm going to give everyone the rundown on what happened on MY servers at the time, then im going to tell everyone why YOU are bitching here. Shit happens in dayz, your group has caused more drama then anything else. You 1st start by saying admin abuse, the only admin abuse I and any other admin of my servers have done is replacing the gear that had been destroyed due to bugs within dayz (IE: Player dies on login) Your clan came in and immediatly found all the choppers? Ok, thats cool... then to top it off you decided to fly around and raid bases and thats fine and part of the game. I get tons of reports of you guys maphacking so I look into it. It became clear to me that you were not with the amount of choppers you had. However you pissed everyone off. You think that it is going to not piss everyone off on the server. Everyone was after you guys. I apologize that you were targeted for killing everyone's bases in result. So here I am to think, why the hell are you bitching about PVP everyone on my server hates you and is constantly looking to destroy your shit, YOU FOUND THERES and destroyed it. WHY can they not find yours? And the next thing I want to add is that Fallout is very trustworthy that is why I made HIM admin, not Rehab at the time. Rehab was appointed to do SERVER RESTARTS. He does not have access to the map. Not to mention that ALL vehicles for the map are hidden in a way. - I take pride in the community that I have built and have spent alot of time working on it. You are only mad because you got bugged, died, and I did not replace your gear in time. The last thing I want to address is the chopper issue. Because of your clans negative behavior to a suggjustion (IE Downvoting every post someones made on the forums) I had to split my community into PVP and PVE. Thank you for coming in and trying to ruin my community with shit comments. Also I am the admin your talking about in all this bullshit your posting. I have never given out information except for when I told one of your clanmates that I am holding off on the choppers until the thread was closed. No information was ever purchased from my server as well.. You sir, actually, your clan, had killed my dayz server with your negative attitude towards it. Im not sure where you get off making a post like this but it really pissed me off reading that you are acuseing players of Admin abuse. ( You may also be wondering am I going to ban you? No because you have done nothing wrong on my server. )

"wipe the hive" means to delete all entries in the database where everything is saved. So basically: all vehicles will be reset and all players killed, yes. And all the people want that because in the 1.7.2-patches where many bugs which basically meant that you can put a thing in your tent, save it and get it out again. When the server restarts you will have 2 of the same item. So you can double ghillie suits, AS50, LWS... all high gear loot. Get one and you have as much as you want. So everybody now get easy high gear and the survive-fun is gone... get it?

Wow you guys are awesome, thank you so much for your feedback! :beans: :beans: * part 1 * :thumbsup: Thank you for your feedback, I will work on the making mathces more available, as for hunting knife and hatchet, they are there almost everywhere. About heatpacks, yeah, looks like the change I made to them was too "devastiting", will be changed to the better value. Well, and for the cheaters, lets hope it will calm down a bit.. Vehicles are a part of DayZ: Namalsk (including special types of helicopters), more on http://www.nightstalkers.cz/en_index_dn.php?menu=en_dn_server or DayZDB map should also have vehicle positions soon. Temperature is achieved by changing the script, the reason for you swimming in the ground is that the spawn point, where DayZ is placing players upon logon / death is in the sea (on chernarus, there is random terrain, so you are staying on the ground). #1 caused by ↑ .. not sure about the solution yet #2 Thats bug from Arma II, because some surfaces on the objects does not have defined sound, it should use the default, but instead it use the last one.. for you it is sea. #3 This could be a problem :( again related to the #1 Thanks! This is in the pipeline :P Yes they should be able to protect you almost fully, but of you think they are not, please, can you describe in which situation you were? Probably unlucky :D @DayZ_Namalsk @namalsk @nc I've talked with Josh, it will most likely gets joined into @nc sometimes in the future, he will also take a look on the server filtering.

Hi there, we are close to having 20 plus active players. Sometimes during the week nights its a tad slow. The owner of the server is going to be updating the server and adding more vehicles (there are already 70+ )and helis (currently 4 I think) hopefully this weekend. The server has active admins on it in addition to the owner. I am not a admin so maybe you could come on and see if you like the server. I enjoy it. Most times there are alot of ppl willing to help out but you know how dayz goes...trust noone!! :) The admins are on top of the script kiddies as much as they can be. Ofcourse you know some are going to get through but I can tell you they have no fear in banning when need be. Once a script kiddie got through and after they got rid of them they told us all to be patient, they reset the server and asked that we all not kill for a bit. They then helped people get back to where they were before. Also brought some to vehicles if they requested it :) Well I hope you come to give the server a try. Pie
