US 6313

[Skyboxii 0]

So I recently became the owner of US 6313 thru HFB servers. I set up my server according to HFB's guides, however when a player joins my server they are just prompted with a wait for host screen and cannot join. Can some one help me here?

Hey Skyboxii,

 

WIthout knowing any history on your server, I'd quickly verify that you are running all the most current DayZmod files and that you haven't made any changes to your dayzserver.pbo or your mission file.  Typically when you are stuck at "wait for host" it's either the server itself not being able to auth with the CDN certificate server or the mission file is trying to call a bogus instance ID. 

 

Things I would do:

*Verify you setup the server the way you intended (official or private?)

*Verify your serverside files are all up to date

*Use only default files (if you care to change anything, do it after you're up and running)

*Wipe the server and start over

 

You could also open a ticket with HFB to have them double check your hosts file.  I know there was a point in time where they had a bad host for the CDN, I wonder if maybe you have this same hosts file as well?  Just an idea.

 

Cheers,

Jimmy

The "Wait for Host" screen is usually indicating that the missionfile is missing on your server. On HFB it should be located in the "MPMission" folder in your File Browser.

 

Make sure to check your server.cfg first, there should be this:

// MISSIONS CYCLE (see below)class Missions{class DayZ {template = dayz_1.Chernarus;difficulty = "Regular";};};

Forums deleted half my post. Weeeeeelll - here again:

 

In your case it won't be "dayz_1.Chernarus" - it will be a higher number, for example "dayz_1234.Chernarus" - make sure this exact file exists in your MPMission-folder.

Ok I checked everything to make sure it was up to date and everything seems to be in order. I also checked my mission file and it looks like this:

i// MISSIONS CYCLE (see below)

class Missions

{

class DayZ {

template = dayz_17002.chernarus;

difficulty = "Veteran";    // change this for other difficulty settings, regular, expert is valid

};s 

 

The server itself is an official hive server. I want to run it as a flat vanilla server.

Is that "dayz_17002.chernarus.pbo" existent in your MPMissions folder on your server, then?

I don't believe so is there a tutorial on how to add it to my pbo files?
