What is 'modified data file' and why should we care?

Recommended Posts

<ORLOK says: temp pinning>

 

I see like one of these every other minute. I've seen them stack three high. In blood-red lettering, no less.

 

It's the same garbage message I see on Arma 2, and 3, and it's really starting to annoy me.

 

Wtf is a 'modified data file' and why does the engine feel the need to tell every single person on the server whenever anyone (and it seems to be everyone) has it?

It's people connecting and it's best to treat it as a bug for now. It will eventually be removed. The "normal" connectmessages are removed already.

What does mean this message? I know this error from dayz mod but... it has nosense in SA because we don´t use other mods or modifies files.

Could it be that DAYZ SA is only other embedding mod like DAYZ Mod?

Hackers? Lot of them?

Wrong. Read the link I provided. It doesn't mean anything other than someone connecting.

I've been wondering that myself. It seems like its just a way to see who is joining a server. I know the Mod did it as well, and I never knew what it meant on there either lol.

 

And if its just a player connecting nothing else, why does it say "modified data"? An explanation would be nice, instead of just stating the obvious :)
