[AVENI] DayZ Epoch - Taviana 1

IP: 185.2.136.156:3238

Forums (WIP): http://aveni.go-board.com/

 

Summarized info:

 

Map: Taviana

Mod: DayZ Epoch v. 1.0.2.5

Timezone: -4 GMT

Settings: CH:OFF, 3P:ON, NP:OFF, DM:ON

Slots: 54

Scripts:

• Auto-Refuel
• Self-bloodbag
• Vehicle lift (temp. disabled)
• Safe-zones in trader cities
• Side missions (with improved AI)
• Indestructible bases (not thoroughly tested yet)
• Animated chopper crashes (you see the chopper crash, and can then loot it like usual)
• Vehicle salvage

Rules: (subject to change - if you do not understand something read bottom of post)

• No killing on sight. You need to have a reason before shooting someone, unless you find yourself looting rare items and you see another player headed your way. If you're in danger in any way, it is allowed to KOS ⁽¹⁾
• No shooting fresh spawns (people with patrol pack and no weapons) on the shore. The rule above applies to fresh spawns as well ⁽²⁾
• No camping loot spawns with a sniper. This is not a PvP server so you are not here to kill everyone you see ⁽³⁾
• Never shoot a player solely to get their loot, attempt to rob them first if you decide to play bandit-style. If the person you're robbing refuse to hand over their gear, you're free to open fire on them ⁽⁴⁾
• No hoarding vehicles. You cannot use two helicopters or two cargo trucks at the same time, unless you're teamed up with someone ⁽⁵⁾
• No killing/robbing near traders. As of now not all traders have safezones, but this is due to change. Read under scripts for information
• No insulting other players or admins
• No asking admins for items or vehicles, even if you lose anything due to glitches. The game is in alpha, so bad things are bound to happen, which is why we will not compensate you in any way
• No foreign languages in side channel, please only use english
• Don't act like a douche ⁽⁶⁾
• Have fun and enjoy the game

Connecting:

 

You need to download DayZ Epoch and DayZ Taviana (dayztaviana.com) with DayZ Commander, and add additional launch parameters to your launcher settings. They are as follows:

 

-mod=@Taviana

 

Admins:

 

- Jakobb987

- D1NGOR

 

Rules explained:

 

(1) Shooting a person on sight even if they have no weapons can be allowed to in certain situations. An example: if you see a player without a gun carrying a patrol pack (the one you spawn with) about to head into a military loot spawn, you're allowed to shoot because they could find a gun inside the loot spawn and come back out to kill you. Basically, killing a player is not allowed if the player is no threat to you. If you play like a bandit it is never allowed to kill on sight if you're not in danger, but you're free to hold up and rob a player if you want. That player is allowed to refuse to hand the bandit their items, and attempt to kill the bandit.

 

(2) If you see a person without a gun carrying a patrol pack (the one you spawn with) on the shore, you're not allowed to shoot. Chances are the player just spawned not even 5 minutes ago, and had no chance of finding a weapon to defend themselves. There's not really a point in shooting that player anyway, because you lose ammo and only gain items the person spawns with. Abusing this rule in any way will lead to a warning and a kick.

 

(3) Camping a high value loot spawn from a distance is not allowed. If you know a player is inside looting the items you want, you're free to rob that player and take his stuff. If you camp a loot spawn just to kill people, you don't belong on our server. Take it to another server, maybe even a PvP one.

 

(4) Shooting a player for no reason other than getting their loot shows you don't belong on our server. We want player interaction and want to make gameplay fair for most people, by forcing people to play like it was real life. We want you to think: "What if this was real life, I was about to kill a real person to take his stuff? Would I actually have the guts to do it?" and enjoy the game to its fullest like it was intended.

 

(5) If you have a base or hideout of some sort you are not allowed to for example have two urals or two helicopters, because what is the point in having two helicopters when you're alone? You can't fly both of them anyway and there's many other ways of storing loot than in vehicles, since we are playing Epoch. Gather the required items for a tent and use that instead. It's both smaller and more camouflaged than a huge helicopter. They're also harder to steal from, since the thief would have to loot everything into their backpack and run off with as much as they can carry. A car would just be entered and driven off. If you're teamed up with another player, you can obviously have two urals and two helicopters if you're so lucky to find that.

 

(6) If you shoot a vehicle's tires out for no other reason than to make the game annoying for other people, that counts as being a douche. Generally, annoying other people or "trolling" them is not accepted on our server. We will not accept any form of trolling in a game like DayZ, because a lot of people spent hours working on something, and we know that seeing the thing you worked hard for being taken from you for no reason, is a real moodkiller. If you troll other people, expect to be trolled back or in some cases banned, depending how significant the troll was.

Started playing on this server some days ago. It is a very good server, despite not many players active at the moment. Join ! :)

[jakobb987 1]

Updated layout of original forum post.

 

We're currently working on a seperate forum to have more categorized discussions. Will not share the link yet though, as it is still very much a work in progress.

A few players have been online the last couple of days, and I'm hoping to get some constructive feedback from them. Hopefully they check this post from time to time.

 

Anyway, the server seems to be working quite well. The next few days I will spend most of my free time on adding plugins such as towing/lifting, self-bloodbag, godmode in trader cities, full moon nights and other.

Hello.

 

First of all to everyone looking at this post:

If you are looking at this topic and turning away because it is on Chernarus, please post a reply, since we are debating if we should change to another map.

 

Also here is the forum i have been working on for a bit now: http://aveni.go-board.com/.

We do not have our own domain (yet), so we will have to do with this for now.

The layout is not at all done yet, please read the announcement i have posted. :)

 

I hope to see you on the server and forums.

Cheers!

 

Edit:

It should also be mentioned that the server is located in Europe.

More specifically Copenhagen, Denmark.

 

Edit:

Excuses, the server is located in London. Mixed something up when I wrote this :)

We're attempting to install the plugins now. Hopefully it will work out well this time around...

[Dingor 1]

We have now added following scripts:

 

Auto-Refuel

Chopper lift and vehicle tow. 

We will also be adding full moon nights later + safezones at traders.

 

Edit: some correction.

Edit2: chopper lift and vehicle tow is now working as intended.

Edited November 19, 2013 by Dingor

[jakobb987 1]

Updated the post a little.

[Dingor 1]

Safezones at the 3 main traders have been added, other traders will also get safezones later.

Server sidemissions have also been added.

Updated the original post again.

[jakobb987 1]

More updates to the original post. I added an explanation to most of the rules that aren't completely clear.

[Dingor 1]

Alright the server has now been updated with 2 new plugins:

 

Indestructible bases and animated chopper crashes (you can see the chopper crashes actually crash).

 

We are a few people online now, if you are interested looking into the server, feel free to join! :)

[jakobb987 1]

Updated the original post, changed both title and list of scripts.

[jakobb987 1]

Did some more formatting

[jakobb987 1]

Added a poll about a map change. The server is not very populated and active, so we thought changing from the old Chernarus to another more interesting map would spice things up, and make the server more interesting.

 

Edit: deleted poll due to incompatibilities between Epoch and different maps, may attempt to make the maps compatible with Epoch at a later date.

Just to point it out:

We are trying to make a TRUE DayZ, not that 1000+ vehicles crap. We are trying to get some more player interaction, like DayZ once had. Instead of the shoot on sight mentality a lot of people playing DayZ have now a days. In my opinion DayZ is supposed to be a survival mod. If you want to fly around in an attack jet to kill tons people, i would suggest playing ACE mod or just vanilla Arma 2.

With that being said, we are also against admins abusing their power (using control panel map to find items, players etc.)

So if you want to have a authenthic DayZ (Epoch) experience, feel free to check out our server :)

Server has been updated with self blood bag script.

[jakobb987 1]

Updated post

[jakobb987 1]

We're hoping to be online most of the weekend, so come join the fun! It would be great to get some active members on the server.

We've also been discussing another map change, this time to Taviana. This time we are sure it will not be incompatible, so if people think changing to Taviana is a good idea, please respond to this post with your feedback.

 

Thanks!

[jakobb987 1]

We've decided to change the map to Taviana. At the moment we are working on adding as many of our old scripts if they're compatible, so the server will be back up in a bit.

Edited November 29, 2013 by jakobb987

[jakobb987 1]

We're also adding a script that improves AI.

 

Edit: Ran into more problems... gosh darn it. Server is up and running, but without scripts until we get it sorted out. You need to download Taviana (dayztaviana.com) and add launch perimeters in your DayZ launcher settings. They are as follows:

-mod=@Taviana

Edited November 29, 2013 by jakobb987

[Dingor 1]

One of the scripts wasn't working as intended, and caused an error. It has now been fixed, but chopper lift is disabled temporarily (all previous scripts are now enabled again and working).

So far not many people have played on the server. It seems like the real DayZ community has died. Most players only want to play on servers with 99999999999999+ vehicles. It is sad to see DayZ in this state. I don't understand it. If you want constant PvP action, play stuff like wasteland or just original Arma II, or Arma III for that matter. - Just a little rant
