[[DayZ.st] RESTART]

Dayz.ST do a count down from 60 when you hit the "restart option" in your game control panel where as HFB Do not have a count down when you hit restart (so if you hit restart the server is restarted then and there so there is no chance to quickly get to a safe place to log out etc) i hope this helps 

[How do I set spawn points manually for players when they start the game?]

I dont believe you can set up custom spawn points atm in epoch i know you can install mods to your server that might make it a little easier to get back to your friends one mod that i was looking at yesterday was this one..

If you are able to follow instructions from the guides you should be able to install something like the link i posted to help you, other then that if you have not done this already you can try turning up the vehicle limit so that more cars and helis will dynamically spawn over the map (so you can hopefully find a car quicker and get back to your friends)

[Incorrect Version of Server Side Application]

Nps at all glad i could be of help!

[Incorrect Version of Server Side Application]

 

Hey everyone,

 

My host (HFB Servers) has an installer for 1.0.1.4, but not 1.0.1.5. I decided I could figure out how to upgrade this, and thought I had, but I'm getting this message. The version reported in DayZcommander is 1.0.1.5, but I get a black screen with "Incorrect Version of the Server Side Application" endlessly.

 

It's a brand new server I'd just like to try to run epoch 1.0.1.5 on, so there's no data to worry about saving. I found a really old thread related to this message, but nothing recent. Any thoughts?

 

Thanks,

Robot

 

 

Have you applied the update for epoch via your updates option? ( Game services > Updates > then DayZ (1.0.1.5) Epoch Update )

You will need to make sure you re-apply this update even if its a fresh install on a side note too you are only able to have 1 update on your server at a time... so if it says you already have the latest update install something like the beta patch then re install the epoch update.

[Default Loadout]

What i did to add starting gear to my server was under the epoch config in the Init.sqf in your mission pbo (see below for what i am talking about) 

// DayZ Epoch config

spawnShoremode = 1; // Default = 1 (on shore)

spawnArea= 1500; // Default = 1500

MaxHeliCrashes= 25; // Default = 5

MaxVehicleLimit = 350; // Default = 50

MaxDynamicDebris = 500; // Default = 100

dayz_MapArea = 14000; // Default = 10000

dayz_maxLocalZombies = 15; // Default = 30

add a space under this and then add (this is what i use but you can change it to what ever you want)

// Default Loadout Config for New Spawns

DefaultMagazines = ["8Rnd_9x18_MakarovSD","8Rnd_9x18_MakarovSD","ItemBandage","ItemBandage","ItemMorphine","FoodCanFrankBeans","ItemSodaPepsi","ItemPainkiller","ItemHeatPack"];

DefaultWeapons = ["ItemFlashlightRed","ItemMap","ItemCompass","ItemWatch","MakarovSD"];

DefaultBackpack = "DZ_TerminalPack_EP1";

DefaultBackpackWeapon = "";

and now just make sure it all looks like this (like making sure there isnt 2 spaces between the areas etc)

// DayZ Epoch config

spawnShoremode = 1; // Default = 1 (on shore)

spawnArea= 1500; // Default = 1500

MaxHeliCrashes= 25; // Default = 5

MaxVehicleLimit = 350; // Default = 50

MaxDynamicDebris = 500; // Default = 100

dayz_MapArea = 14000; // Default = 10000

dayz_maxLocalZombies = 15; // Default = 30 

 

// Default Loadout Config for New Spawns

DefaultMagazines = ["8Rnd_9x18_MakarovSD","8Rnd_9x18_MakarovSD","ItemBandage","ItemBandage","ItemMorphine","FoodCanFrankBeans","ItemSodaPepsi","ItemPainkiller","ItemHeatPack"];

DefaultWeapons = ["ItemFlashlightRed","ItemMap","ItemCompass","ItemWatch","MakarovSD"];

DefaultBackpack = "DZ_TerminalPack_EP1";

DefaultBackpackWeapon = "";

 

Repack your mission pbo and upload that to your server. I hope this is of some help to you 

(These steps are the only ones you need to make! you do not need to touch the server pbo at all i have no idea why you would needed to do that in your attempts before hand :S )

[In Game Admin Tools Dayz Epoch]

Is anyone able to give a easy to follow guide on how to install Blue Phoenix Admin Tools. I am trying to follow the guide has has put up but i can not find the lines he is asking for 

find this code
if (!isDedicated) then { // If mission is loaded by a player execute the player monitor 0 fadeSound 0; 0 cutText [(localize "STR_AUTHENTICATING"), "BLACK FADED", 60]; _id = player addEventHandler ["Respawn", {_id = [] spawn player_death;}];

I must be stupid because i do not have that exact code in my init.sqf i have something that has parts that look like it but its not the same word for word
 

 

if (!isDedicated) then {

//Conduct map operations

0 fadeSound 0;

waitUntil {!isNil "dayz_loadScreenMsg"};

dayz_loadScreenMsg = (localize "STR_AUTHENTICATING");
 

this above is what i have.... Like i said before if anyone knows of an easy to follow guide on how to set this up links or pointers would be awesome

I'm kinda keen to see how everyone went with their tweaking  ^_^ id like to get a fluid time inc working on my server :D 

[DZAI Lite - Dynamic AI Package]

Before anyone asks NO THIS IS NOT MY WORK!!!! I am just giving people the heads up about a easy to install AI pack for the guys that might be just getting into server moding etc!

 

So being a kinda newish server owner i am always looking out for things to add to my server. (even if they are hard as long as the guides along with them are easy to follow ill be able to make it work!) 

Then i came across this little gem! this AI pack is very easy to install and the settings to edit the AI are very easy to understand/do. SO if you are having trouble with getting AI working on your server maybe give this little baby a go. :)

[Question about car/heli spawns and re-pops]

Ok thank you very much guys! <3

[Question about car/heli spawns and re-pops]

Hello all ^_^

First off i'm not sure if this is in the right area but any info/help on my question would be awesome!

 

I have just started running a Epoch server for a small group of friends and we all love it! the thing we are just unsure about is the car/heli spawns and what happens to them when they are sold to a vendor?

I am very new to owning a dayz server and i am not sure if there is other scripts or settings i need to make sure are in place/turned on to make sure the cars that have been sold (or blown up) are re-spawning on the map. 

 

If anyone could give me advice or help (even if its links) i would be very much appreciated.

 

Thank you all for your time.
