No Message Received (Only on epoch servers)


Major

Recommended Posts

 I have been having this problem lately were I keep getting 'No message received' and it just keeps on going whenever I try joining a epoch server. I've tried turning a VPN on incase it has anything to do with me, I tried changing my launch parameters, restarting my computer, restarting internet, and still no fix. This problem accures at the second player list screen. I was hoping you guys could help me because this seems to happen 90% of the time, unless I keep and keep trying it usually gets me in. But when I die it takes me back to the player list screen and does the 'No message received' issue again. Also, if this doesn't happen I usually just get to the 'Requesting authentication' and it just keeps in retrying until it says 'You must be close to a rock to mine ore'

(This just started happening 10/7/14)

Have you tried reverifying your game cache via steam? If that doesn't work try reinstalling everything.

I just tried reverifying it and I get this message "2 files failed to validate and will be reacquired."

The last thing I wanna do is reinstall everything, but if I have too I will.

Any other ideas?

If the reverifying thing didn't work then you might just have to reinstall. That will for sure fix your issue.

Didn't seem to fix my problem, I reinstalled it over night and the next morning I got the same problem. I think it has something to do with the connection not the files.

All I know is there is some strange things going on lately.

 

Authentication issues.. You must be near a rock to mine ore

Game loads and you can hear sound but loading screen still displaying.

 

 

I'm gonna just guess there are some things going on in Epoch that is causing these things... Some undesirable changes or unforeseen issues caused by Epoch itself.

 

 

The first issue is being more and more apparent and there is no definite fix though I've read many suggested solutions. Seems like it just randomly pops up causing players to reload several times to get onto a server. This is killing server pop's.

 

The second issue is somewhat new and seems to be it's spreading.

 

Dunno what to say... Looks like some big issues.. Possibly what Steam has done recently affecting the mod.. Don't really know.. I do know there are becoming more and more reports of these issues and they are not small issues.

After searching for this solution myself for hours and hours, I think I found out a solution to this, so I thought I'd share it:

Basically, you have to copy everything in the AddOns folder from Arma 2 to the Arma 2 Operation Arrowhead Common folder.

 

1: Right click on Arma 2 in your Steam Library > Properties > Local Files > Browse Local Files > AddOns > Copy Everything in the Folder (Ctrl+A and Cntrl+C) > exit out of the arma 2 folder

2: Right click on Arma 2: Operation Arrowhead in your Steam Library > Properties > Local Files > Browse Local Files > Common > Paste everything (cntrl+v) into the Common folder, replace everything too.

3: Launch Dayz

4: =)

 

DON'T VERIFY GAME CACHE. THERE'S A CHANCE OF BREAKING THE GAME AGAIN.

I also don't guarantee this will work, so don't blame me for not fixing it. Worked for me.

The must be close to mine ore issue is the servers basic being setup wrong or the hardware isn't enough to support the massive influx of users and the amount of objects stored in the DB.

I'm sorry but that explanation is just bullshit :)

This mean u reached the 120 seconds time out, server can change the TEXT displayed...

Authentication issues.

1. Your server is too bussy calculating other stuff ( players,objects,actions,scripts,ai)

2. BattleEye has a hard time

3. Server is still laoding up ( Use my Better load messages to show the players if the server is still loading up)

 

 

I can let u join a server from lobby to server in max 10 secs. ( clean server). 

Objects on the map and vehicles increase load in time.

 

Over usage of your bandwidth can delay your login ALOT ( watching youtube, torrenting, downloading)

ALT_TAB has a huge inpact on your load time.

 

STREAMING has a huge inpact on your load time.

 

LOADING the right mods can also help ^^

 

 

IF STEAM is OFLINE and yuour server requires secureID  (in config) then noboy can login.
