UK87 - Everything gone after Arma OA update?

[sKynZ 1]

Hi folks,

Oke lets kick off, alot of my friend were playing on UK87.. and we had a camp there with 9 tents, and 1 jeep.

Everything was defended properly, wire fencing and tank traps and bear traps all around the place.

Suddenly tonight around 1:20 GMT+1 we could not join any more multiplayer matches.

After launching SixLauncher again, we had to download a patch.

We were going online, and got the message (in short): "Arma: OA is currently unavailible, sorry for the inconvenience."

After waiting till 03:00 GMT+1 we could finally use the multiplayer lobby again.

Joined server UK87 (still spawning at our camp location) and EVERYTHING was gone.

All our gear, tents and car and defenses.

My question is, why and how is this possible?

Can we get it back? Or do we have to start all over again?

Server might have to restart.

Tents, vehicles and wire fencing sometimes disappears and doesn't appear until the server restarts. You should wait for the next server restart before leaving your camp site.

Hi!

I am sorry to hear this sKynZ but as stated in the previous posts the server may have to restart in order for the tents to appear again.

PM me the location of your tents and I will check in on the changelog. :)

Oke guys, thanks for the headsup :) I think the server restarted once, for the patch to be active. So it has to restart again, to regain the last HIVE Database file? :)

Ehm, How come i dont thrust this? Not personal but you only have 7 posts, and to be honest i dont see what you could possibly see in the changelog :)

The tents and cars were at server UK87 :)

PS: Is there a way to contact an administrator of a server, if there would be no info in the MOTD? :)

I contacted people at ViLayer.com regarding this issue.

I really hope we get some information about the hoster, wich i dont think we get because i think its classified information.

As i thought.....

myname,

We do not provide our client information to third parties, I would suggest in the future you rent your own server for your group to play on.

Is there a way to contact the person or hoster through e-mail in anyway?

We are a group of 60 players, we would love to atleast get a proper answer regarding our items.

Hi Support,

We play a while now on the Luxembourg server called UK87.

We have setted up a camp / base of operations, after the latest patch we lost all our cars and tents.

Is there a way, to reset / restart the server in anyway to get all our stuff back?

I also made a post on DayZmod.com about this matter: " http://dayzmod.com/forum/index.php?/topic/43556-uk87-everything-gone-after-arma-oa-update/ "

They advised me to contact the server hoster(s).
