Vilayer servers and Six Launcher

Recommended Posts

Just a question for vilayer server renters(I own US 1313). Are your servers appearing on the Six Launcher server list? Mine is not, and because of it... I simply do not see the amount of players I feel I should (We rarely see over 14-20 players on the server, and I'm paying for 40 slots because it's the minimum I can run to be allowed on the whitelist. The fact is, at least 75% of users find their DayZ servers through six launcher for whatever reason. Be it convenience since it also applies new betas and patches, and what have you. It can also monitor/install other mods like Project Reality and Invasion 44, etc.

It's just really frustrating constantly seeing your server at low numbers during peak hours (5-11pm EST) because it simply won't show up on six launcher. In fact, there was ONE night that our server appeared on the launcher, and the server capped out at 40 players almost as soon as I saw it appear. I don't know if the issue is on Vilayer's end(They blame gamespy) but to my knowledge, gamespy is also tied in with arma IIs in game browser, and my server shows up there just fine.. or maybe the problem is Six Launcher itself? I thought it may of been how my server was named, being US1313 without any spaces.. so I changed it to US 1313 and still no positive results.

I'm not here to bitch and moan, even though that's what it sounds like. But more so, I'm here to ask other renters of Vilayer DayZ servers... are your servers coming up on Six Launcher's browser? Or have they simply vanished? DayZCommander shows my server immediately, as well as the in game browser. I just wish the tool that the community was almost forced into using(since on the download page, it's pretty much demanded you use six updater/launcher to install and run the game. I want players on the server, and it's not because demand is low. It's because the players simply can't see it's there.

There is a problem with gamespy server listings...

Dayz-Commander is using a backup server listing that the developer for dayz-commander is hosting himself, till gamespy gets its server listings sorted out.

As for tool for installing dayz theres a wiki on different install methods, just six-updater used to be the only automated way to install dayz.
