hey all, after getting a bit fed up of the prevalence of hackers on hive servers and horrendously admined(?) private servers we've taken the plunge and got ourselves a new private hive server. It's gone live in the last couple of hours so theres plenty of gear and vehicles ready for people to get their grubby mits on and tear up chernarus. theres a group of about 6 of us and we would welcome any other groups with open arms to come join us and put up a fight... (got so fed up of killing admin squads and being banned for 'hacking'!!) server ip: 94.229.79.106:2304 current name: 'Brand new private hive max vehicles 8 choppers dedicated admins + anti hax' nb. there are in fact only 3 choppers not sure why it says 8 in name but this will be changed shortly tl;dr - new server, vehicles, and a squad to fight

Many thanks for that pointer. That makes sense. I've noticed over time that objects like tents, vehicles tend to move a little everytime the server is restarted. So I guess this one vehicle was resting near a tree or something and was hitting it over and over again.. It generated 10s of megabytes of log files! :) Thanks very much, you made my admin life a good bit easier! :D

Personal preference is just that, a preference. The marketplace of ideas should remain unfettered despite your personal distaste for specific vehicles or server hosts. If the vehicles added are unpopular and people hate them then the service that offers this will lose, since it seems to be relatively popular I think the community has spoken over the objections of purists. The Mod has been opened up, so you will see people mod the files to make it more hardcore as well as those who will mod the files to add extra content that some would label "casual" while I would use the word fun (I admit it might take away something from the original experience, but we are far beyond that at this point anyways). I actually enjoy both types, sometimes I just want some fun and I jump on a high vehicle count server and go to town and kill people without a care in the world, other times I enjoy the grind of a more hardcore environment. Those who hate Vilayer I have a little bit of hard news, nothing is going to happen and they will most likely remain a popular hosting service.

You have to add the vehicles yourself. But its the same as chenarus.

Is there a map available online yet? And a list of vehicles available? I'm running servers through HFB and just curious what the vehicle/aircraft spawns will be like.

Small group looking for more members! we arent survivors or bandits, were in the middle. currently we have camps with vehicles, on many servers, we plan to go to a private server. my skype is jacob.myers33. we play Eastern times add me on skype for more details!!

EMITA CITY. This server is part of the HFB Servers which means your gear will transfer over to the other servers connected to this hive. The private hive allows us admins to add to the DayZ experience with some awesome tools provided to us by HFB . FEATURES 73+ Vehicles Active Admins Daily Database backups in case of a hacker attack. DETAILS ​Location: North Carolina IP: 199.241.184.198:2322 RULES No cheating/scripting/duping No Racism Have fun! My signature has the info of the server. Awesome map, Street lights at night.

There seems to be some serious misconceptions being thrown around here. By the OP.. and others. If you visit this page http://www.armaholic.com/page.php?id=7467 You will find Panthera, a map created by IceBreakr. This map has been around since Date: 2010-05-09 09:16. ViLayer simply took a map that was already created and added the DayZ Code... Just as the other guy did who had 2 servers running the map. ViLayer spent the time to place each vehicle spawn.. Loot spawn in the building models... (of course it will look the same.. there is no other way to add the dayz code...) It appears that the OP is mad that someone else did the same thing he did... only better, And now he claims that the server files he created are somehow Official, and that the ones someone else has done are fake... ??? Are you really serious? There is nothing being sold... there is nothing being stolen.. Anyone can go to the link provided above and download the map... or any other map for ArmA2 or Arma2 OA and go spend hours and hours of time coding and adding in the proper spawning for vehicles and players... then go host a hive that has hundreds of thousands of players in it... then setup a support system to deal with any issues that people have with the map you have created... All without getting paid for it BTW. Then go spend thousands and thousands of dollars for the best that money can buy servers and put them into data centers around the world... allowing anyone who chooses... not forced, to rent space to host ANY SERVER VERSIONS OR MODS they wish to play on. I want to THANK ViLayer for Supporting the DayZ Community.. For adding content... For having a Hive that has so many maps and options... I want to thank DayZ Commander for a FREE program that allows players of this FREE mod to have a fast , easy way to download these new maps and search for the most popular servers, the populated servers... and enjoy this MOD that so many people love to play.

I haven't written any amount of the item because i'm currently on the phone. Weapons - M4A3 CCO SD's - MK 48 Mod 0's - DMR's - AS50's - L85 AWS's Tools - NVG's - Rangefinder's Vehicles and other stuff - Coyote Backpacks - Bus - Engine blocks What i'm looking for - Vehicles (location and it's status, we give NVGs for good information). - Satchel Charges - Camp locations --------------------------------------- Interested? PM me! I got some simple rules just to make sure me and my friend(s) are safe. You do not make the rules, we do. We choose the place and the time. You have to inform us of how many your taking with you on the trade and their names.

I still have plenty of people playing on my Private Server. It's admin'ed very regular, and virtually hacker free due to whitelisting and what not. Plus, Private Servers allow you to find a server that is managed the way YOU like it, not just how the developers want it. For example, we play an as-vanilla as possible DayZ server, with some changes. Notably, no hueys (replaced with two armored humvee's), and players are not allowed to make camps/park-vehicles outside of the map.

This is not a place to post your ticket # for help, we cannot and will not skip one customer's ticket so that you ticket's may be answered faster. All tickets will be answered in the order that they are received. UPDATE: Please understand that we are not normally this busy, we are just running a little bit behind schedule. The rMod release had to be heavily modified in order to allow some of our users to stay on bliss 3.4 with the whitelisting feature, and we have to make sure that our user's are able to easily upgrade to 3.5 These bliss updates are not as simple as a Beta update, with a beta update you can just drop the files in the updates seciton. Bliss updates are more complex and takes some time to get everything properly situated. We are having to modify our DayZTools in order to work with spawning vehicles into rMod, and there are other features we are planning on releasing soon. Please be patient with us, we will be all caught up and back to usual by the end of tonight! All of these things we are doing are for your benefit! rMod is being finished right now, release will be within a few hours from now! Sincerely, Survival Servers

When we put up our server, we had a chopper up within 20 minutes. We took off, looked down at the terrain and immediately saw bullshit and took the choppers out. See we recognised from the beginning how difficult it is to find a base considering how small arma really is. Using a chopper just ruins it for everyone else and for what? So those guys can be assholes and go there and destroy all their tents and blow up their vehicles (because I can guarantee they don't need the gear). Sorry we want people to work for their gear. Dayz is meant to be hard and cruel and yet choppers quite literally get the easiest ride of all.

OMG seriously? THIS is your argument? So your telling me that choppers shouldn't be changed, or things shouldn't be fixed because a ural holds lots of gear? Is that ur argument or am I missing something? Who gives a fuck if it's desirable. All it does is do something a little more all vehicles and tents do. Wowee

Hey thanks that's some useful info. I didn't know it takes a downed chopper 7 days to respawn, is that really true? The DayZ Wiki says that any items placed in the PBX will instantly sink into the water. I've never found a PBX (only that slow-ass "small boat") so I can't say. Personally I wouldn't mind if there were at least two of these high-end vehicles per server, because on many servers the admins are the ones hogging the Ural. I don't have a grudge against admins -- on the contrary, they're awesome for hosting our servers! -- but it's either them or some clan hoarding all the good stuff. At least that's where the helicopter comes in, as you can use it to spot the slow and vulnerable Ural. All in all I think the system isn't too bad, and a lot of people's complaints could be addressed with the addition of more vehicles and a few tweaks to the maintenance system (making it more complex and challenging).

I've repopulated some more vehicles for next server restart in about 40 minutes. One such vehicle is an MH-6J that will be spawning in the middle of NWAF air strip next restart. Again, that's in 40 minutes (8am CDT). Enjoy :P Hopefully someone gets it in the air vs. blowing it up.

Have had the same glitch happen for me and my buddies. We play on a private hive server that one of my friends owns, and we've been running around fixing vehicles up. After putting the tires on a vehicle, and sometimes maybe a scrap metal, the vehicle will be fully repaired. After a server restart, the vehicle's true condition will show though, and then we will actually have to repair it. According to the vehicles, we've been driving around in suicide vehicles for the past week o_O

Vilayer is out of line here. They are effectivly ruining all the good Arma2 maps by porting them to DayZ and adding crowd pleaser vehicles like Osprey that does not have a place in dayz. I am from now on boycotting all vilayer servers on any given map because of their money grabbing scheme server hosting by latching onto dayz success and stealing code & not crediting map makers. Shameful. TL;DR: Fuck vilayer for being greedy sons of bitches.

You haven't lost your equipment or tents just so you're aware of that. After a restart the tents are back with the stuff which was in them before they were crushed. However if the server takes more than 7 days to restart, they will be gone as you can't save them now. Try contacting the server admin, if possible, and report what happened. He might restart the server for you. And yes, hackers can get a HUD/radar with all tents, vehicles, players, zombies and animals since this is sent from the server and the client decides what to display from my understanding.

I've read all the complaints about hacking, but never payed much attention as i played on low pop servers and they seemed to leave them alone. Played solo for about a month, then my nephew joined and we built a base in the city of Cherno (5 tents in a warehouse) and also about 5 tents in the woods north of Cherno. The other day, they finally rebooted the server after 16 days and we found a ural, couple gaz, pickup and dirt bike and put them all up in our camp in the north woods. The next day I spawn in to see someone driving the ural around the north camp in the woods crashing into trees, our other vehicles and smashing tents. I open up on him, he stops, gets out and I put two full stanag mags into him. He takes out his gun and drops me. My nephew spawns in the camp in the warehouse and says he is now there! How did he find both places so fast? Can hackers see what is on the map? Anyhow, needless to say after having a real blast the last few months, we both are now really discouraged and are trying to figure out what to do next. Thought about getting our own server, but that's $30 a month and we don't even know how to set one up. Went into the clan section to try to join a private server, but not having much luck with that as my brother will be joining us today and we really want to just play with us three and try to build a base somewhere. Any advice on how we can proceed from here other than just waiting for stand alone would be much appreciated. Thank you.

Cause I play with inverted look for...hmmm...as long as i play shooters on consoles with controlers (maybe 15 Years...don´t really know). It feels simply more "natural" with inverted Y-Axis. It´s not playable without that - FOR ME! I must say, I use Xpadder only for driving vehicles because aiming with Mouse is much more easier. But driving a vehicle with Mouse/Keyboard is really pain in the arse! My Xpadder setup is optimized for driving. The only thing that´s bad is, that the triggers and sticks don´t work analogous, but digital. But I can live with that. Have the same Problem sometimes. Start DayZ over Steam (or tell DayZ Commander to do so) and start Xpadder as admin. Sometimes even that doesn´t work. I close Xpadder than and start it again and save the layout one more time - it always worked then.

Your comparing something that spawns 3 of in game against 30+ other somethings - how is this even close to being a comparison? Not only that, can you fly any of these vehicles you listed? Can they travel across the map in a straight line at twice the speed of most vehicles? So you have no issues with choppers being these super powered machines that never need any maintenance and can see through forests with ease - nobody here has a problem with this right? You all are perfectly happy to get ur camps raided and find nothing but crap at chopper crash sites and then get ur asses sniped by an AS50 - everyone here is totally ok with that and doesn't think any of this needs addressing one bit.

My friend and I are having the same problem....week old server most vehicles have been found but no chopper

Is it still that bad? Seems to me like Battleye has been clamping down on the duping in a major way. I haven't been hit by a script kiddie in weeks, but I constantly see "script restriction" messages from BE. I know there are still many duped/scripted weapons in circulation, but it's only a matter of time before things normalize. I thought off-map vehicles get wiped and reset during server restart (i.e. they don't save off the map)? Two helis per server would be cool. Any more and it turns into a heli DM :)

Due to all of the hacking we have experienced on DAYZ, a few guys have put money towards a server that we are running and we'd like you to join! We currently have a player base of around 15 players but are looking for around 50. The server is password protected as this is our attempt to stop hackers from joining the server and only allow genuine players who wish to play the game in a hack free environment, it also allows new players access to vehicles. The server is currently full of vehicles and plenty are very accesible. The server is hosted by DayZ.ST and always has a very good ping, the actual server is located in Washington. The server is now running Bliss v4 and Dayz v1.7.3. The server is currently not password protected so if you fancy having a look the server IP is: 173.192.200.76:2342 Rules PVP is allowed everywhere on the server. No hacking Settings Difficulty=Veteran Map=chernarus Timezone=GMT 3rd person=on Cross hair=off Name plate=off Death message=on Vehicles=143 Password protected=no What we are about We purchased a PVT HIVE server to allow us to play the game without the hacking. This server is for DayZ players with a survivalist mentality. The server is password protected as this is our attempt to stop hackers from joining the server and only allow genuine players who wish to play the game in a hack free environment, it also allows new players access to vehicles.
