NOTICE: Duplicate of another question posted in the wrong section. So I've been playing this server that has a number of mods installed. I've been playing it for quite a while with the only errors I've been getting are regarding a 45 round RPK mag being missing, but other than that I've had no errors or any issues loading. Upon trying to place a plot pole, nothing happens; absolutely nothing, like no preview shows up, no prompt saying "starting construction" or anything like that, just blankness. When I try to do it again it says "building already in progress" and I can't do anything, not even lock my vehicle. Is there anything that can be done, or that can explain this phenomenon? To further the understanding of how this came to be, I bought a plot pole from the trader in Trader City Stary and tried placing it near Stary, but not too near it (near a thicket of bushes in the distance). Upon right clicking and hitting the build option, that's when I face my issue.

when attempting to upgrade my doorways. im getting not setup yet error. no errors in rpt other then one thats been spamming it the entire time. i dont know if this error is causing the other issues im having that iv made other post about Error Type Any, expected String 0:36:42 File z\addons\dayz_server\compile\server_playerSync.sqf, line 41 0:36:55 Error in expression <ceFoot = 0;

How to report script bugs and problems: This small guide will give you an overview what we need to help you resolving bugs. Write your problem as exact as possible and please provide more information as only one sentence. If you show no logs we cannot or will not help you. Write a meaningful headline. What mods do you have installed and on what map do you play? Epoch, Overpoch (Overwatch+Epoch), Overpochins (Overwatch+Origins+Epoch) Chernarus, Napf, Namalsk, Taviana, Sauerland, Panthera, Lingor and other What scripts do you have installed? This is very important because there can be relations betwenn different scripts. What Anti Hack do you have installed? At the moment there are two common Anti Hacks out there: Epoch Admin Tools(free) infistar(not free) What ist the name of your server host? Certain Gameserver Hoster will not work very well with a custom epoch. If you have a dedicated server you should be good. Check your launch parameters from your server and your client. Do not start the server or the client with -nologs Add to your client –showScriptErrors You can do that in the DayZ Launcher --> settings --> Check Show Script Errors or you start your game with a batch file. Provide Logs from 5. This mean show us your server and client logs. Client logs can be found under C:\Users\YourUsername\AppData\Local\ArmA 2 OA It is possbile that the folder is hidden in windows. You can make it visible: https://support.microsoft.com/en-us/help/4028316/windows-view-hidden-files-and-folders-in-windows-10 If you have Battleye kicks show the kick logs from your battleye folder. If you have problems with lost gear you can add the HiveExt.log as well. The file is in the same folder like the server.rpt Do not post the logs directly here, use pastebin.com, google drive or something like that and add the link. If you provide all these information there is a good chance we can help fast and efficient. Only for the record: If you are new to the Arma 2 Epoch Community and new to start servers. Please stay away from the Legacy Resources in the forum and use only the normal Resources. Legacy Resources are outdated. If you have a better knowlegde in scripting you can try to adjust the scripts from Legacy Resources but for now please stay at the normal Resources forum. @JasonTM Install Guide If you want to add the most common scripts try @salival modpack.

Hello everyone. I would like to ask for help regarding a problem I have been having on my server. Items stored in the vault are not being stored in the SQL database. I have tested with the safe and the lockbox and both are not working but with the tent it works and saves the items in the database after the server restart. ArmA2OA.RPT: https://pastebin.com/X2cT7BBU arma2oaserve.RPT: https://pastebin.com/rqFNGbDy server_log.txt: https://pastebin.com/ZVWAzgNP Please help me. My players do not want to stay on the server because of this and if I remove the safe and leave only the tent (which is what saves the items) they will cry hahaha

hi! Why bug Vote day / night function? (Use Infistar) Player vote night and 2 minute later back day(Again morning /day) Thanks

Hey, after last Arma Update, BEC doesn´t work for my Epoch Servers. Did anybody had the same problem and con help me? Thanks Honey Bee

I got DayZlauncher and I find a server, assign the Arma2 and click on it. It tells me which mods I need to download, so I do it (DayZ, Epoch and Overwatch). Not ethat I had these installed for like 2 years, so I only needed to update them. Click play on teh server after tehy're done only to get: Arma 2: Operation Arrowhead is attempting to launch with the optional parameters shown below. " -connect=172.106.106.33 -port=mod=C:\Program Files(x86)\Steam\SteamApps\Common\ArmA 2;Expansions;C:\Users\Ziggah\Documents\mods\@DayZ_Epoch" " If you did not request this launch or do not understand this options, select Cancel. Note, my arma 2 and arma 2 OA location is on D drive. I click ok. I get the "battleEye is installing thingey. I get it every time". I get another error message after that. a window titles "Arma 2 Army of the Czech republic Se..." with the message " !!! MISSING STRING" Have no clue what AotCR has anything to do with dayz so I click okay. After this I get a window titled "arma2 OA" with the message "Addon 'sauerland' requers addon 'Chernarus'" Again, I have no clue why I need an addon which is a part of the default game, so I click okay. I get the DayZ Epoch screen, you know it, the black one. After a while, bout half a minute I get: "No entry bin/congfig.bin/CfgVehicles/Land_Company3_2.scope" Then it fianlly, crashes with one last error, a window titled "Arma 2 OA" with the message "cannot load world 'ca\chernarus\chernarus.wrp'" Also, if it helps, my Mods/download path in dayzlauncher is "C:\Users\Ziggah\Documents\mods" I know I could google this, but such a huge batch with these specific combination of erros seems only specific to me. Or alteast no one asked on the internet yet and gave up on ever playing the game. Which I am close to. Can someone help me fix this errorfest of a game, please. I have about 1200 hours in epoch and I really wanna play it again. Seriously. I fix one error, BAM, now you got 2 more.

Hi, So i was enjoying Epoch the other day when a server restart happened, so without a worry i disconnected, 15 mins later i reconnected after the restart and my armor, vest and all of my inventory items were gone. Main firearm, sidearm, helmet and other equipment like the map, gps and binoculars were still there. The gear wasn't worth much and i i'm not trying to whine about getting it back (i really don't mind getting it back) i just thought i'd report this bug. Also, i found others with the same problem, anyone on the forum with some experience on the matter and maybe tips on how to prevent something like it happening again? Thanks in advance, Apex - Slick

Fellow epoch 2 players and server owners We are currently working together with community developers to get the 1.0.6 patch ready for release. Awol gave me rights to the codebase of Epoch Arma 2. This means I can code review and accept/deny any code passed to the Github. I'm also reviewing all the issues reported on the Github to see if it's relevant and debate if coding needs to be done. I understand not everyone is Github experienced. So i kindly accept bug reports or requests in this topic. I do not guarantee it's get fixed or added. But it will definitely throw it into discussion. In the future i'm planning to get a dev server up so we can do some testing on everything we added since the latest patch. I already want to thank every person who worked or will work on the DayZ-Epoch code. A full (rolling) change log will be posted over time ( When i get free time to check all merge request done by everyone since last patch).

Hey guys, got a problem. If i try to salvage a vehicle it shows me the aviable dmaged parts, but when i click on them nothing happens. After i ran around a bit(seems like the action is canceled then) i get the option again but this time it says: Already Salvaging!. Someone can confirm or is it me fucked something up?! :D FIXED Im not quite sure why i have to do this. I use Infistar and maybe thats colliding with eachother. Didnt test it without Infistar, its just a idea. In salvage.sqf i uncommented this: { if ((_vehicle distance (_x select 0)) < (_x select 1)) exitWith {_cancel = true;}; } count DZE_SafeZonePosArray; if (_cancel) exitWith { (localize "str_salvage_safezone") call dayz_rollingMessages;}; like this:

when i join a 1061 server it let me move with WASD but i cant move with mouse or shoot and i see a mouse cursoron my srceen . when i press esc my srceen go black/gray

I get this error while trying to join a server with 1.0.6 epoch but not when joining a regular overpoch/epoch (1.0.5.1). Please help me with this. With pleasant greetings from TheNiceGuy.

So, as many will know, there is an issue in A2Epoch (possibily from DayZ) in the unique identifier generation not always producing unique identifiers. What is the unique identifier and how is it used ?. Epoch uses two object identifiers. ObjectID ObjectUID ObjectID is generated by the MySQL DB backend. ObjectUID is generated within the ARMA 2 game world via SQF code. Why two identifiers ?. For some reason... there is only one HiveExt.dll call to get the ObjectID for an object in the DB. This call is the one used to load all the DB objects in to ARMA. The offshoot of this is that when a new object is created and saved to the DB, the DB creates a unique objectID but this objectID cannot get back to the ARMA 2 game world until the ARMA 2 server process is restarted and all the objects are then read from the DB again. To get around this, the ObjectUID is created when a new object is created in the game world. This is used to reference the object in the game world and on the DB if the ARMA 2 engine does not know the DB assigned ObjectID. So, what is the problem ?. Whilst the code to generate a unique objectUID looks fairly good, it does not always create a unique ID. THis means that manipulation of any new objects that have not yet got an objectID in the game world (ie. created after the last server restart) but having an objectUID that matches the objectUID of an object currently in the DB will cause all sorts of problems. How is the objectUID calculated currently ?. There are three functions used to calculate the objectUID currently (all defined in server_functions.sqf). dayz_objectUID - No longer used it seems. dayz_objectUID2 - Used for objects objectUID generation. dayz_objectUID3 - Used for vehicle objectUID generation. dayz_objectUID just works out the required input parameters and then calls dayz_objectUID2. dayz_objectUID2 generates the objectUID for the object by applying the following calculation. x,y,z coords each multiplied by 10. Results made positive if required by multiplying by -10 and rounded to a whole number. 3 numbers are concatenated together (X + Y + Z). The objects direction (in degrees) after rounding is then concatenated to the result. dayz_objectUID3 does the same but adds the mission time (time in seconds since the ARMA 2 mission was started) to the direction value before adding it to the result for the x/y/x/ * 10 part. Worked example for dayz_objectUID2 Worldspace = [351.545[11079.8,11834.3,-0.380997]] = X = 11079.8 * 10 = 110798 Y = 11834.3 * 10 = 118343 Z = -0.380997 * 10 = -3.80997 * -10 (make positive) = 38.0997 round = 38 DIR = 351.545 rounded = 352 = concat 110798 + 118343 + 38 + 352 Calculated objectUID 11079811834338352 Stored ObjectUID 11079811834338352 So why is it not random ?. A set of coodinates ( [dir,[x,y,z]] ) for an object of [0,[1,1,10]] will produce the same result as a set of coordinates of [0,[1,10,1]]. The uniqueness plays on the probability of combination resulting in the same onjectUID being generated as unlikely. The more items you have in your DB then the more likely it is to happen. Ok, so what can we do about it ?. So this is the purpose of this thread. Both to highlight the issues to those who were not aware and to have a discussion on peoples thoughts on a better solution. I am curious as to why the code does not start at 0 and each time a objectUID is needed it just increments (possibly by 2 / 5 / 10). A server global variable could hold the current value and be populated on server restart by the highest objectUID found in the loaded objects. The only issue I can see is if multiple requests for a new objectUID resulted in the same objectUIDs being given out to multiple requestors as the global 'current objectUID' variable cannot be updated quickly enough. Presumabily that ould be managed by a basic schedualing system enforcing a FIFO queue so each request could be processed one at a time. Any other thoughts or observations ?. I am hoping we can all come up with a better solution that does not require any custom .dlls or DB table changes. Good news is that any new generation system should be pretty easy to plugin to Epoch. Over to you...

Hello guys, I have a big problem. All Bases on my Server despawn after some time. Im really confused - anyone with the same problem? Maybe already a fix. Hope someone has a answer. Blackout
