BSB Jimmy 360 Posted January 25, 2013 I was playing in a server and the owner was playing, he had m249 scoped and a backpack (which i think is impossible) and he was spawning in and repairing vehicles. is he hacking or can the owners just do this. i was on panthera btw Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Testwd3r235 2810 Posted January 25, 2013 Any evidence? What server? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
burritoman259 593 Posted January 25, 2013 M249 scoped cannot be used with a backpack in dayz, I'm pretty sure because all the current lmg's configs or something were modified to allow backpacks. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
BSB Jimmy 360 Posted January 25, 2013 and he could locate players on the map i have no proof but the server ip is 67.228.177.191:3221 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Lapis 4 Posted January 26, 2013 If its the owner he can technically do as he likes, locating players on the admin map and going to them isint against the rules, although its cheep its still not against the rules. :/ Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Bansidhe 16 Posted January 26, 2013 If its the owner he can technically do as he likes, locating players on the admin map and going to them isint against the rules, although its cheep its still not against the rules. :/True, but there is no way I would play on a server twice if the admin was doing that. Had it happen to me and my gf once so we just left and never returned. In fact it was one of the events that led me to rent my own server. While there may not be a specific rule against it I would still class it as cheating. People like that give private servers a bad name. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
NonovUrbizniz (DayZ) 137 Posted January 26, 2013 Woah Woah Woah... Was this a private hive? Was he TP'ing and killing you? or was he just hopping around the map doing stuff...There is NOTHING that disallows admins doing that on private hives... and on top of it frankly if you're on a private hive and the admin CAN'T do that then he is less powerful that the 5-10 hackers you're likely playing with lol...On a private server you can turn of BE and run every hack in the universe... it's so the admin can see when and if there is a hacker quicker than if BE was on and do something about it before people all get teleported or killed or turned in to bunnies...If he's using it to hop around and kill people then F him don't play there... If he's doing it to repair vehicles and place them so he has their location references for his spawn table then he's a good admin.Also on the BP that's a setting that a good admin or programmer can change... you can tell the game what units take up what spots... For example in 2017 scrap takes up 2 spots i/o 3, in some maps cows only put out 5 or 6 meat...You can make motorcycle hold 100 guns and 2000 items if you want to... although I think alot of the spacing parameters might be in the either the dayzcode or the mission file so it requires heavy editing...I'd take a private hive server with an active GOOD hacking admin over an unattended one or one that has admins who don't hack but teamplay to kill all the visiting players...
