Poll been up pretty long now. Removing it as it's been answered.

[ersan 219]

Cool, got a couple signups so far and everything seems to be running smoothly :) Again, feel free to ask any questions!

[ersan 219]

Servers auto-updated to the latest arma2 beta successfully and I (hopefully) fixed the vehicle fuel saving bug that 1.7.2.6 introduced.

Shameless bump :)

[Audio Rejectz 144]

Really good prices, do you plan on supporting private hives anytime in the future?

[ersan 219]

Yep, we plan on doing individual, company-wide, and possibly public shared (hosted with a public address so you can link multiple servers to it) hives as well as lingor and utes as soon as we get some more customers (or if there is a significant amount of interest)

Actually, I'm going to do some preliminary work on private hives now - if we supported private hives would you buy a server?

Edited September 9, 2012 by ersan191

[ersan 219]

I was told by DayZ administrators that having an always-daytime option is against the rules, so I have removed it - it will be enabled again in the private hives.

If you support private hives i would definitely buy a server

[ersan 219]

By request, we now support private hives, a company-wide hive anyone can use, and dayz lingor island, the control panel has also been greatly expanded - you can now turn off BattlEye and password protect your server if it is on a private hive as well, and the always daytime feature is allowed again on private/company hives.

You can also switch between hive types whenever you want and reset your private instance to defaults at any time. If you want to switch from a private to an official hive there will be a $5 fee (because acquiring new instanceid's from dayz support has to be done manually) For now you have to contact support to have this done but soon it will be automated as well.

This fee has since been removed and it is now automatic :)

Just want to tell everyone that i highly recommend these!

Purchased our 40 slot private server and it was up almost instantly. Server runs great, very smooth, for me i run around with a 20 ping so i cant complain.

The control panel is VERY easy to use and just as easy to understand.

Also extremely polite customer service with very prompt responses. I plagued them with about 50000 questions and they still remain polite with me lol.

As well as the above, they also offer some great features like 24/7 daytime servers and they are working on some great features to. That give us a lot more control over our private server than most hosting providers i have spoke with.

Again, highly recommend

[ersan 219]

Thanks!

Added the ability to change max # of vehicles on private/company hives, enable side chat on private/company hives, and got rid of the $5 fee for switching back to official hive (nobody seems to want official hive servers anyway)

Edited September 11, 2012 by ersan191

[ZombieDad 3]

So, let me ask this, if the server is still official, can you still change the vehicle amount and other items? Currently waiting for the order to complete, sent email about the differences here and on your site also.

[ersan 219]

You can't modify any of those settings on the official hive, sorry if that was unclear. I don't have any new e-mails or orders since I posted that message and our order system has instant completion/setup, you wouldn't have to wait for the order to complete - are you sure you ordered from us and not a another provider?

Cant seem to find any of your private servers on gametracker, but yet there's quite a few DayZChernorus on there that run bliss.

Was wondering if this would be resolved, as a lot of people like to use gametracker

Great suggestion, I added all of the current (non-passworded) servers that we host to gametracker (see here) - I'll be looking into a way to programatically add servers to gametracker in the near future, in the mean time anyone can add a server to GT at this URL: http://www.gametracker.com/servers/

Thats great, very fast in getting that sorted. I am very tempted to get one myself for me and my friends. Do you intend on supporting anything like this in the future http://dayzmod.com/forum/index.php?/topic/88632-dayzst-30mo-for-40-slot-usuk-dayz-servers-instant-setup-custom-panel-always-daytime-private-official-lingor/

I like the idea of using a whitelist, the advantage of this over locking the server is, players would get a message when trying to join on where to get whitelisted. Would help moderate a private server better than having to lock it and the password get leaked out for everyone

That link is to this thread but I inferred that it was supposed to be about whitelisting :P - Yeah that sounds like a reasonable addition, bliss (the private hive we use) already supports whitelisting I'll look into how to change the kick message if they're not whitelisted, it's probably pretty easy. I'll add that to my list of things to add to the control panel and post when it's done :) - it won't be for a few days at least though.

Here's what I envision: If a player joins your server and isn't whitelisted it will kick them and tell them to go to http://dayz.st/whitelist/1234 (your serverid), there they will fill out a form (with a captcha) that will submit them to the whitelist process, and then when you login to your control panel you'll see a list of pending whitelist requests which you'll be able to approve or deny - sound good?

Sorry I put the wrong link, don't know what I was thinking haha

This was ment to be the link http://www.tunngle.net/community/topic/91811-whitelist-to-the-rescue/

But if bliss also has a whitelist feature that link may be pointless.

It's good to see a provider that actually listens to what people want, and if possible puts them into place

[ersan 219]

Ah, bliss's whitelist feature isn't as robust - from their site: "Players who are not whitelisted will be stuck at "Loading" when they try to connect."

I'll look into supporting that mod but it might take awhile, using bliss's would have been much easier for me to implement.

New control panel feature: Modify 3rd person, crosshairs, nameplates and death messages individually for any difficulty!

Edited September 13, 2012 by ersan191

[ersan 219]

New control panel feature: Link to run the spawn vehicle script on private & company hives, still auto-run every day at midnight EST :)

Now that we're starting to gain momentum and are getting some customers we wanted to get some input on where people would like us to expand, so I made this thread into a poll.

[Glyphyyy (DayZ) 16]

Just thought Id post my thoughts on this host.

I bought a private hive last night and I have to say dayz.st are extremally good! The server was setup instantly managed to connect straight away. The server is very smooth and with a good ping!

The control panel is a bit basic but very easy to use and configure your server! The only think I would like to see is access to the FTP which is currently unavaible.

May aswell request a feature while im here! I would like the option to choose the arma beta used on the server... (Will send a support ticket, one of are team mates has trouble connecting "bad version").

[TheBigFish 0]

Can you choose the name of a server?

[ersan 219]

Can you choose the name of a server?

Official hive servers are named with the default (required) "DayZ - US ####" or "DayZ - UK ####" depending on location.

Private/Company hive servers are named DayZChernarus or DayZLingor

You can edit the hosted by string on any server, for example here is ours:

DayZLingor - (0.34/96751) [VETERAN][GMT-7] Private Hive - DAYTIME | SIDECHAT | 50 VEHICLES | DayZ.ST

DayZ - US 265 (v1.7.2.6/96751) [VETERAN][GMT-3] dayzmod.com - www.DayZ.st | DayZ.ST

The bold part is what you can edit

Also added new control panel features: Every private hive user now has full read/write access to their database through phpMyAdmin, and you can now download your server log files from the control panel:

[audiorejectz 8]

Sorry if it's a stupid question, but what can a customer do if they have read/write access to there database?
