shadow_moses 50 Posted August 22, 2012 I got an email from my host today. Saying that Dayz was pushing out an update for anti- hack stuff. Has anyone else heard of this today? I have not seen anything on the forums about this. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
urbanfox 116 Posted August 22, 2012 On 08.14.12 BattlEye released new features to help combat hackers.These features rely upon new text files similar to scripts.txt to work.I'm guessing your host is now implementing these files. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Purecrew 0 Posted August 22, 2012 Actually they had the BattleEye release available but was not implemented in the full upgrade option. You could have done this at a previous time but now they want you to do it to help track and stop hacking.Unless of course I'm wrong and they have a new update in the updates list later today.

Torndeco (DayZ) 46 Posted August 22, 2012 (edited) Have a vilayer server that had such an update today.Waiting on hfb update but i assume its similiar deal...They made it harder for hackers/scripts to read the server.cfg file.Custom player skins was disabled on the server.Updated bans.txt with a couple more entries @ the start of the file, good thing i keep backups of my server bans.And new updated scripts.txt, remoteexec.txt, createvehicle.txt, after which i changed back to the ones @ dayz-community-banlist Edited August 22, 2012 by Torndeco Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
ryahn 112 Posted August 22, 2012 We have an update that installs the new files if the server did not have them already. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
kaindebuddy 6 Posted August 22, 2012 I am running vilayer and today in the updates tab i see thisDayZ 1.7.2.5 & Arma2OA 96061 Security Patch This will install all the regular patches on the server and patch the server so hackers can-not spawn items within the server such as vehicles, weapons etc... This has been released early so please use at your own risk however it should make sure server much more secure. YOU WILL NEED TO RE-SAVE YOUR SERVER CONFIGURATION FILE AFTER PATCHING YOUR SERVER.DayZ 1.7.2.4 ROLLBACK You must have the latest security patch installed before this one for this patch to work correctly. This is to only fix tent saving etc....It is interesting to see that the 1.7.2.4 rollback should be applied after the 1.7.2.5and i think i am going ahead and do that. bye bye 1.7.2.5 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
