ThuggleS 45 Posted August 26, 2012 So I had a few tents full of pretty good items, used "save tent" option on all of them, but the server restart ate all the items (tents are still there).Any way to not let this happen?Not being able to save my stuff (other than what I can carry on my person) takes the fun out of the game for me...

Mattix90 10 Posted August 26, 2012 Not being able to save my stuff (other than what I can carry on my person) takes the fun out of the game for me...No shit...Anyway, the answer is no and I wouldn't expect it to be fixed any time soon Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Hetstaine 10852 Posted August 26, 2012 Is saving totally not working or is it a random deal ? I only pitched my first tent last night and have not been in since server restart yet. I guess my morph and bloodbag run from Berezino to near Guglove may not have been worthit then huh :) Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
ThuggleS 45 Posted August 26, 2012 (edited) Is saving totally not working or is it a random deal ? I only pitched my first tent last night and have not been in since server restart yet. I guess my morph and bloodbag run from Berezino to near Guglove may not have been worthit then huh :)I had 5 tents, all with stuff, and none of them kept items after restart.I'm afraid that since devs have said nothing on the issue that it is going to be ignored until standalone is released...which sucks balls, because I love the game, but if I can't make a camp and save items I have no motivation to play.

jetao2008@hotmail.com 175 Posted August 26, 2012 Let us know if you find a way to save it.I WANT TO KNOW! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
tet5uo (DayZ) 22 Posted August 26, 2012 I haven't been able to get a tent to save since the last patch.This needs fixing asap. No wonder everyone just deathmatches in the cities now. No point to gathering gear that's just going to dissapear on your in hours when the server resets. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
conthefruiter 7 Posted August 26, 2012 Vehicles are a bigger issue, sucks when you fix up a UAZ and next time you log in its gone back at its spawn, same with 2 atv's and a tractor. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
c4mpfire 2 Posted August 26, 2012 Drop a tent save it wait till server restarts if your tents there it should start saving has worked for me. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Mattix90 10 Posted August 26, 2012 This needs fixing asap.As well as artifact glitches, duping items, doors and trees crushing you to death, disappearing equipment and so on and so on. The mod is a dead end and I seriously doubt the devs give a shit about it. Since Rocket is walking the earth spreading news and advertising his creation they've probably remained unsupervised playing solitare and what not. Best thing to do right now is sit tight, wait for the standalone and hope it won't be as screwed as current mod is. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Hetstaine 10852 Posted August 26, 2012 I think he may be saying it is be a random thing for him but as long as his tent survives the first restart then the gear will ? Unsure. I found three tents in about 30 minutes, one in Zeleno shops and two in Stary shops so it inspired me to actually try and do the whole tent thing..so i probably have a mini camp full of nothing right now i am guessing :) Carted that damn m16 acog thingy from the barracks around for nothing then the bastid. Sorted the glitching our end too, ati and nvidia , look at the glitch esc/video options/advanced/ set vid memory to default/ reset to very high. Works on my gtx560ti, my mates gtx680 and my partners HD6770. sometimes we just have to set it to default and it works without changing it back to very high.

Your english is astonishingly bad. I don't really understand half the bullshit from the first part, but rest assured - tents DO NOT work and CAN NOT be fixed. If you put something in your tent before 1.7.2.4 patch then your tent will be duping items inside each time the serv restarts. As for the second part - it has been discussed hundreds of times, there even is a sticky somewhere describing temporary fixes for artifacts but again problem is NOT solved as it doesn't seem to work to everyone (eg. me) and is only halfmeasure to a serious problem.

Muncywolverine 236 Posted August 26, 2012 The only real way to store things in tents is to use a 1.7.2.4 patch server. Dayz commander makes this easy, you can switch patches and arma II beta's quickly and effortlessly.Infact i've got a 1.7.2.4 server where i store all my shit, but i play on a 1.7.2.5 server for my hero skin! :D Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Hetstaine 10852 Posted August 26, 2012 Well.. someone got out of bed and fell down the stairs into a big cup of fuck off didnt they :) First part, i was just having a stab in the dark at what he might have meant. He pitches his tent, waits to see if the actual tent survives the restart , then puts items inside and it saves. Half measure to a serious problem is better than nothing atm, just throwing in this post what worked for me ..sorry for trying to offer you a a temporary solution Mr Happy. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

sostronk 334 Posted August 26, 2012 The servers Im playing on are hack free and I have zero problems with tents not saving. On the other hand, if I go into a public hive server guaranteed if I put stuff in a tent one night it won't be there there the next day. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
amaROenuZ 144 Posted August 26, 2012 It's an issue with tent saving that was caused by an attempt to fix tent duping in 7.5. 'm pretty confident that it will be fixed on the next release. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
kaindebuddy 6 Posted August 26, 2012 I'm afraid that since devs have said nothing on the issue that it is going to be ignored until standalone is released...which sucks balls, because I love the game, but if I can't make a camp and save items I have no motivation to play.1.7.2.5 was released as a unofficial patch, if it didn't worked you were supposed to revert back to 1.7.2.41.7.2.5 was mostly an attempt to fix the graphic glitches. something that failed. the other notes imho did little to improve game play so there is little reason to keep 1.7.2.51.7.2.5 Changelog:* [FIXED] Ammunition amounts not loaded in properly (Now records used ammunition correctly) * [FIXED] Graphical glitches with barbed wire (Rebinarized file should no longer produce graphical artifacts) (FAILED)* [NEW] Additional optimizations to login process (further use of publicVariableClient to reduce network transmission)* [FIXED] Respawn button not enabled when legs fractured (Now enables for fractured legs https://dev-heaven.net/issues/39161 )* [FIXED] Excessive logging of player data in server logs (Disabled https://dev-heaven.net/issues/38784 )* [FIXED] Graphical glitches with dead bodies (Rebinarized file should no longer produce graphical artifacts) (FAILED)+ some candy stuff like the new hero skinhowever the devs ARE working on it, and currently they are in the process off updating the hive and moving it to a new server that are supposedly going to fix the saving issues.but until that is done i strongly suggest going back to 1.7.2.4 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
