Tent problem Any else?

[AzErEuS 6]

Hello guys i have a problem, a hacker joined yesterday while i was sleeping and the server was almost empty ( yes i am human i cant do a 24 hour check and i have a life ).

The thing is that this hacker created a camp near the spawn point next to cherno, he created 30 tents surrounded by wires and each tent has 10 weapons and 50 mags of each weapon in the game. Also each tent has a coyote backpack, also range findes, night vision gogles, maps, tools etc. Now, we have tried EVERYTHING, using rCon to talk as admin i asked everyone to help destroy the weapons. We took everything away from the tents, we dropped them nearby and we saved the tents over and over and over again. I restarted the server, all tentes were full ... again. Ok, we tried raming them with a bike, a hatchback, a pick up truck and the ural ( in each attempt when the tents were ¨destroyed¨ ( You know flattened ) i reseted the server with a 10 minutes wait for the hive to take the information of the destoyed tents ) but no matter what we did, tents re appear after server reset. Now.. these tents are next to cherno so playing this game in my server has lost meaning. Full equip in 0 seconds.. with mags food and coyote backpack.

2 questions.

How do i destroy those tents? ( Notice i have said we tried almost everything ).

Is any other admin encountering this too? ( You know.. you take something from a tent, you reset and it re apears? )

Please help, my server has 0 people right now, no one wants to join anymore. :(

I must find this server!

But on a more serious note, I'm pretty sure they despawn after a week of inactivity (No one touching them) although that's a long time to wait. Good luck finding a faster option though, I've had a bunch of tents on a server I play on despawn, I don't know how though.

any one have any idea? anything?... :( no one seems to care about this issue and they complain about hackers :(

Tent and vehicle inventories are not saving in 1.7.2.5. So anything in them is pretty much stuck at this point.

contact the devs mate.i think only they can fully reset the server for ya

[AzErEuS 6]

you guys dont understand this is not from 1.7.2.5.. i have been with this problem since jul 6. I contacted them using the ticket system and stuff. I cancelled my serice with the server provider i had, i purchased a new one so i could get a new map. I got the new map on Agoust 4 or 5. 3 days later a hacker joins and creates a lot of tents, we tried to destroy the tents on friday... ( 1.7.2.5 was no up yet ).

I opened a ticket and now replies to my concern. It is frustrating to read and see in blogs and machinima about rocket not letting us lock the server so people dont uber gear and then go killing to another server while in my server you can do that officially.. just log in, go into cherno, super gear from those tents and go to another server with 40 people and kill everything, you got killed? do the same and re log into the server that killed you. It is getting annoying that one cares about this. And yes, people is joining the server ONLY and purely to get gear from the tents, i restart the server ( or restarts with the 6 hour automatic ) and everything that was taken re apears.

I'd lock the server for the greater good. At least until you get some help

Reverse hack? I wouldn't condone it But couldn't you remove tents and place more barbed wire there? How about sand bagging the place so no-one can get access? shouldn't they save as well as tents? Take access away and no-one will take any stuff!

Or delete server and start again with DayZ instal?

I am using a server provider, i dont have access to that. And you cant restart the mission to it makes everything disapear. i got some PMs of people asking for the IP of the server to fully equip. If i do this i got black listed, if i lock the server i got blacklisted if i hack to to destroy the tents i got blacklisted, if i open a ticket i dont get any replies or help about the matter. I am under the wall here.

Just crashed the tents with a bike.

You could just get a new server if the devs won't help you... I'm sorry, I'm all out of ideas

Here is the timeline.

Here is the tents smashed to the ground. So far so good.

Reset and there they are... up again.

First tent

After searching some tents.

In less than 2 minutes ( literally ).

Full geared, gillie, sd, gps, range finder, nvg.. everything.

Is this calling the attention from a staff member?, this is happening to me since last month, not 1.7.2.5.

Please help.

Could it be that the way my server provider restart options dont update correctly the server internal database? or tent location and items are download everytime i restart the server from HiVE?.

[Devren 6]

Would they decay if you just turned your server off for a week, aka no one can click them if the server is off.

[AzErEuS 6]

So i will have to lock the server down, i hope i could use this post as a reason in case i have to apeal a black listing.

[AzErEuS 6]

I will password the server until those tents disapear. Apparently the only way to destroy them is to let them disapear withing the 7 days of no use. So 7 days of server i will loose... and NO i wont give the ip, stop asking man..

[AzErEuS 6]

Server provider wont allow me to password it. And no help is recieved :(. Good future ahead of Dayz Standalone.
