Does others using Arma2 RCON are experiencing huge delay in the message read from the server? (in example to read the messages in the chat typed a couple of minutes before). Is this a "normal" behavior or my server has some problem?

Could anyone explain to when when I should add something via:

Building / instance_building,

Vehicle / instance_ vehicle

and

deployable / instance_deployable?

For example, I am guessing that buildings, walls etc should be a building, BUT a static gun, for example... should that be a deployable, or a vehicle? (like: ZU23_CDF on http://www.armatechsquad.com/ArmA2Class151656165165341654165165165165f/A2/Weapons/static/#document )

Thanks in advance!

All I know is our servers worked fine before the 1.7.3 patch, they are sitting at 40% cpu utilization which is nothing (and less than they were before the patch), I told the bliss developers about the problem and the current developer of DayZ (R4Z0R49, who I posted a direct quote from) said that 1.7.3 had unoptimized SQF's that would be causing it and it would be fixed in the next version. I also have read many reports of performance problems with bliss v4.0 and 1.7.3.

Here's the entire conversation: http://pastebin.com/dKcBx2m8

As far as I know only us and SS even have active threads in these forums and the last time I looked in on their thread they had more serious problems than lag spikes to worry about.

Sorry to push on this very topic, but i absolutely need the logs downloading, coz it's already frustrating as is.. without the possibility to see what's happening at all it will be impossible to even imagine to fight the script kids.

Please:

- Fix the log downloading (especially the scripts.log). It seems that after a while the server is running, the logs are impossible to download, probably due to size. Every time we're attacked we need to guess who is, since the log is "lost".

- Reduce the backup time to "1 hour". I will be ok to download em elsewhere if it's a matter of space, because every 6 hours serves no purpose at all (unless you have complex buildings etc.). Ideally it should be backuped every 30 minutes to make it useful.

Download and use Gotcha-Antihack, everything you need to check logs conveniently and make log backups.

Something odd is going on... cannot access to the control panel anymore (it just sits there). So i cannot restart the server. :(

Are you using IE?

If so use FIREFOX, I used to get problems using the control panel in IE but everything works perfectly in Firefox.

Does anyone know what static weapons like the ZU23_CDF (http://www.armatechsquad.com/ArmA2Class151656165165341654165165165165f/A2/Weapons/static/#document) should be added as?

Vehicle & instnce vehicle, OR deployable & instance deployable?

I am just confused at to what to use vehicle for, and what to use deployable for :P

Thanks!

I am unsure when it comes to static weapons, I used Buildings to build everything I put in. I am having massive issues with the adding stuff but there aren't any real guides. I have now done a base using the 3D map and tried importing it and none of it worked.

What he's saying is, if you use Gotcha anti hack it saves all the logs for you. So if a hacker does attack your server you can find out how in Gotcha. Combine that with keeping your own more frequent server backups and it resolves what you call dayz.st "issues"

If im unable to download the logs at all.. do you believe that i can access to the server to install gotcha?

We have a control panel, not the server shell (we don't have FTP either).

Gotcha is client side, you run it on your pc and log in with your rcon details. Meaning you don't need to install gotcha on a server or require ftp

Gotcha you run client side, input your server IP and rcon password. It will parse the logs real time, however you will need to email Dayz.ST to let them know you wish to run gotcha and they will add the 2" you need in your .txt files to allow gotcha to parse your server.

Also something you guys may want to look into to combat the script kiddies is this whitelist. This would not be useful for those of you using rmod unless you filter out the weapons you wish to allow. this would be added to the publiceval.txt file. Unfortunately this is something DayZ.ST would have to add for you at this point because we don't have access. I have used this filter on my previous server and it worked wonderfully for spawned in weapons. It is only a kick though so you will have to investigate the player and decide whether to ban them or not.

That would be VERY much appreciated! you can have my canobeans when its done!

Please PM me the link if its not too much bother, and I will think/like/give beans or whatever to your thread :)

Especially of interest to me, is what I add as a building, what as a vehicle etc... BECAUSE... I can add the static gun I mentioned above, but it kills me whenever I try to 'giot in' it :( Doh!

I can use it on the 3d map, but when I add as a vehicle via phpmyadmin - as soon as I try to use it (options on scroll are get in as driver - ride at back, which is ODD!) - Well, I die straight away :( Grrrr

That would be very much appreciated as I just can't get anything to spawn at the moment.

I have given you some beans and me and Petunia will give you a group hug.

I kinda figured out how to get my big static gun working, but still, the guide would be AMAZING :)

A log is called "log" because it saves some information on a file locally, to being download and parsed after, when it's convenient to do so. You're suggesting me instead to have a PC at my home, turned on h24, connected via rcon, to do locally something that i'm already paying for? Doesn't look efficient or reliable at all to me.

You don't seem to understand the purpose of gotcha antihacks. What it does it checks the logs against known hacks and kicks/bans players automatically. Logs don't do that, they just "LOG" information that you yourself have to parse through. Gotcha tries to alleviate some of that and does it automatically. It also scans players inventories for hacked weapons which traditionally you would have to check inventories manually on your own. The logs which you are so upset about do none of this. I understand its a pain not to have archived logs sometimes but you are shooting down suggestions when you haven't even taken the time to understand what people are suggesting to you.

A side note you are not paying to have logs & hacker prevention. You are paying for them to host a server for you, the administration of the game and hacker prevention is up to you as the admin of your server.

Any reason why our Bliss database is gone right now? Everyone is stuck at "wait for host".

Sigh... We think a hacker just gained access to our database server and deleted all of the server db's - I'm investigating what happened and how to fix it now.

We have backups of all the private hive databases and they will be restored, for now I ask for everyone's patience - this happened about 2 minutes ago.

I am shutting all of the servers down until the backups are restored.

Ah! That explains why my database is gone :PO I just panicked and restored a backup.

No worries, you have my patience, hope it is sorted soon :)

Good luck!

How can so many people spend so much time trying to ruin a video game for everyone else? I will never understand what goes through people's minds.
