insolicious 24 Posted April 17, 2015 Hey people. We currently rent a private Vilayer server and I could need some help to figure out how to extract the logs properly and get the data I want. In addition I wonder how the current legacy version works with persistence. Some servers say they reset their persistence daily to avoid the same loot beeing there the whole week. Anyone able to assist me on this? Thanks in advance. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
UKA Harrysoon 67 Posted April 18, 2015 Download Notepad++ (it's free) and when you download the log file right click on it and click "Edit with Notepad++" and it'll open the file. I reset the persistence on mine with every 4 hour restart. In the scheduled tasks, you should have an option to reset persistence. Set this up to run with each 4 hour restart. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
insolicious 24 Posted April 18, 2015 I found the option to reset my persistence.. however I do not know where to inject this into sheduled restarts on the vilayer weblayout :/ Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Xylolixus (DayZ) 5 Posted April 18, 2015 (edited) You can add a sheduled task from the ACP start screen in the 'sheduled tasks' tab. Click "new". In the dropdown list you can choose reset persistance. Edited April 18, 2015 by Xylolixus 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
insolicious 24 Posted April 18, 2015 I found that. Thank you alot. Now I just need to do sheduled messages for people to recognize.. I guess I can do that with the same tasks? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Xylolixus (DayZ) 5 Posted April 18, 2015 No, you need to enable BEC at the "addon manager". After you've done this go to "configuration files" here you will find a 'sheduler.xml' edit this file for the restart messages. Here is an example of how I did it: <job id="0"> <time>00:03:55</time> <delay>000000</delay> <day>1,2,3,4,5,6,7</day> <loop>0</loop> <cmd>say -1 Server will restart in 5 minutes!</cmd> <cmdtype>0</cmdtype> </job> Check this link for more info on the sheduler.xml: https://support.multiplay.co.uk/support/solutions/articles/1000165262-bec-scheduler-guide Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Xylolixus (DayZ) 5 Posted April 19, 2015 It seems they (Vilayer) just removed the option to reset the persistance? I can't see it anymore in my ACP... Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

In the scheduled task yea :/ I got a slave shard with them, and it didn't have the option, so sent a ticket in and they said they were yet to add it to slave shards too. Got a reply back today saying their development team wanted it removing altogether for whatever reason, so neither master or slave have it as a scheduled task now. Could try sending a ticket in, too. If enough kick up a fuss they might add it back in. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Xylolixus (DayZ) 5 Posted April 19, 2015 I'll go do that now, Hope it helps, now we can't even get our loot respawning... Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I can do it manually, but I don't want to have to do it manually every restart, so a scheduled task would be a huge help. It's just like if I wanted to add in 2 hour restarts, I wouldn't manually restart it when I wanted the extra restart, I'd setup the scheduled task... Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
insolicious 24 Posted April 20, 2015 For some odd reason my sheduled task is still there.. not sure if they changed it today as I was away yesterday but it's still around and was executed today the time I set it to happen. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
