oliverdesousa@hotmail.com 35 Posted September 24, 2012 Hello everyone, since I have had enough of the hackers / scripters and have seen what the private hives have ( such as custom scripts and custom weapons etc ) I took an interest in them, at the moment I'm looking for a good server near the UK which maybe has alot of vehicles, custom weapons or a custom script for the Chernarus map, can anyone recommend a server for me?

rolling 19 Posted September 24, 2012 Yeah. I'm in the US and I'm looking for a custom vehicle/weapon hive server. So desperate for one I don't care where it is, just want some new stuff :3 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
BossAchren 0 Posted September 24, 2012 (edited) Good News! We just started US 1012 (Private Hive) and we are working on doing this. Right now we do have extra vehicles and some added custom ones. The problem is custom weapons.We want to add some variety of weapons but nothing to OP. But the server invokes a ban file that is present on the client side. So first we have to disable the ban file to even set them up. This is not going to be easy. Also we have discovered the loot generation is really governed by the client as well. When person A approaches a building, person A spawns the loot. Person B can enter said building AFTER person A and see the same loot.Now if Person B has a modified PBO that has a different loot table bypassing the ban file, if person B enters the building before person A, the new loot table will be used. If person A enters the building AFTER person B, person A WILL see the modified loot. The kicker is if Person A spawns the loot BEFORE Person B, its the default loot, you would have to cycle the building THEN FORCE person B to spawn the loot for the new table.Like I said, we are working on this and might have an answer soon. As far as vehicles, we can spawn different types and more, but we can't spawn banned vehicles, we want to spawn in some littlebee's/merlins without weapons etc. If we allow some way over the top stuff, the server will become unbalanced. Also on the table is removing any thermal weapons to create more chaotic firefights.So thats what I have, and hopefully we can fulfill requests like these in the short weeks to come.

This is trivial to address, it just comes at the expense of requiring that your players use your own custom generated PBO to connect to your server. I do this with my own DayZ custom mod that I'm working on. As long as "verifySignature" is set to 2 in your server (no reason it shouldn't) then people can't use any PBOs other than those verified by your own custom signed PBOs and you can do version checks (just like DayZ does) to make sure they're using the proper versioned PBOs.

tandwan 250 Posted September 24, 2012 Well when a server like this comes up, let us know. Otherwise, we're all still looking. We want custom weapons, not custom vehicles. Custom vehicles are being done on damn near every server, custom weapons are a different story. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
brandondouglas85@gmail.com 0 Posted September 24, 2012 I would totally do this with my private hive if i had any idea on how to make custom loadouts etc.. i'm a retard when it comes to this stuff. Money definitely doesn't by brains. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
tandwan 250 Posted September 24, 2012 You would be surprised the number of people who want to play on private hives that have custom weapons. There are a lot of us.I don't want overpowered weapons, I want weapons that are new and exciting, like AK's with grenade launchers and AK - ACOG or whatever. I want the soviet version of all the nato weapons currently in the game because they are IN arma. I want to see more Soviet sniper rifles, we're IN RUSSIA, WHY ARE THERE SO MANY NATO WEAPONS?! I want to see a server that has more Russian weapons then Nato weapons. Make the nato weapons rare drops or something and make the russian ones more abundent. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

oliverdesousa@hotmail.com 35 Posted September 25, 2012 To be fair I wouldn't mind having a KSVK being the only powerful sniper, it's a 50. Cal but it is no way as powerful as the M107 and the AS50, I'm not sure on it's power but first of all it doesn't have zeroing, and I would like to see more LMG's like the PKM and others Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
