Hello. i am wondering if the server and database loading and write will get faster to get faster FPS if the MySQL server is on linux VPS and dayz server is on a dedicated box? at the same datacenter
or if it is better to run both mysql and the dayz server on the same box?
 
System specs for dedicated box DayZ Epoch
CPU: Intel Xeon E3-1245v2
RAM: 32GB
Harddrive: 3 x 120gb SSD or the 300GB storage
 
 
what i mean is if run my DayZ server on a dedicated box, and the Mysql database on a linux VPS to get less desync and lag.

OVH are fine if it works, If you need support they suck badly, I knew something was up with one of my servers and spent all day Saturday finding the issue, turns out it was a dodgy RAM stick, once you show them prooof it's the RAM they swapped it within the hour.
You can't just tell them something is wrong, they won't do anything until you prove the fault.
 
They also have a great network inside Europe, once outside though it's down to each carrier and traffic to some parts of the USA are flakey.
 
If OVH are too pricey they also own http://www.soyoustart.com/en/ and the cheaper brand http://www.kimsufi.com/en/

Ran and owned by OVH cheap ass prices for good specs.

Erm no :p A VDS is a virtual dedicated server, basically a dedi shared between other users, dedicated servers are dedicated with no sharing, VDS are shared.

+1 for OVH.

This is an extremely ALPHA project and by no means is appropriate for production servers! ONLY FOR DEVELOPMENT SERVERS (when released)
 
Hey guys,
Intro
Just want to share with you my latest project that I have been working on. One of the biggest issues I have seen with running a server is low fps do to the shear amount of objects in the server. I pondered on how I could solve this issue. One of the first games to pop into my head was Minecraft. Why is Minecraft significant? It's significant because the size the levels can be can practically be unlimited to the average person, and the way they achieve this is, well, level chunks. So I decided I would take this concept and apply it to the object spawning mechanism.
 
The Mechanism
The way dayz currently spawns in objects is it spawns everything in at once when the server starts. This creates lower FPS on the client side because the clients have to account for all of those vehicles. The way I have reworked the mechanism is to put all the objects into an array for later access. I get the chuck the players are in by using a function that divides their location by the chunk size. This in turn, creates a array location which can also get the objects within their chunk. You can also apply a chunk radius which will be added and subtracted from the current chunks location. This is done to prevent only one chunk to load at once.
 
Benchmark
Here is a few screen shots of the script in action and then without the script. This is on a public server with less than a thousand objects on the server. (FPS in upper right hand corner)
 
With chunk script



 
Without chunk script



Result: As you can see from the pictures, rural areas on the map, FPS increase is close to +20, while on the city side of the spectrum, FPS increase is a mere +5 FPS.
 
But that is not where the script is suppose to shine... What if I told you we could have 10,000 object on the server with a decent FPS? Lets try it at 2,000 vehicles first shall we  ;)
 
With chunk script



 
Without chunk script



 
Result: Yep, chunks helped tremendously with the FPS of the client. It's FPS was a shear +38 fps more and there was 2,000 vehicles.
 
The performance increase is great but there still is a long road(network lag) ahead of the script.
 
Any thoughts? Should I continue with it? IS IT THE FUTURE?
 
Ill share the script once I have it to an exceptionable point. However, if there is a massive influx of people who want to see it for themselves, I might release what I have now.
 
 
 
 
Appreciate and support my work? 

I do agree with you, but it's what he wanted to build so stop being an ass. You could've had a bit more constructive criticism instead of making fun of his build. 

Hello! i have many times thinked about roof that have big enough doors for a helicopter to fly inside the base, so i tought that it would been a nice feature to have. Heres a picture of the rood door thing.
The door will be sliding and its almost completed with animation, i think for now its only posible to buy via the traders.
The door are big enogh to land an Blackhawk.

Hello! im planning to start an DayZ Epoch server with the mod ACE and ACRE. And i wondering if theres anyone interested? ACE stands for Advanced Combat Environment and will bring everything soo realistic as posilble, more information about ACE and all features is here: http://community.bistudio.com/wiki/ACE_Features (btw: cool feature is AutoRotation)
The other mod called ACRE stands for Advanced Combat Radio Enviroment and will bring Radios so you can talk via radio and a new direct chat with suround and many more features, more information here: http://forums.bistudio.com/showthread.php?133891-A-C-R-E-Advanced-Combat-Radio-Environment-1-4-Stable-Release-Thread

Now, im wondering how many is interested? if enough is interested i will start seting up everything

Here is my first base i built, it have a big garage with 2 garage doors, and a walkway to my house for fast acces to the garage in an emergency
