0 Allanstrings Posted November 12, 2013 Report Share Posted November 12, 2013 If you happen to be hosting with DayZ.ST, we just rolled out a new 'short day' static time option in the control panel that begins each restart at 4pm, then you can adjust the date in the mission anywhere between summer and winter solstice dates to adjust how many hours of light you want in the, and the restart cycle in the control panel to set how many hours of night afterwards. If you host with someone else, and have access to edit the hiveext.dll you can set static time and an offset to determine start time and follow the same basic procedure. If you host does not allow access, ask them if they can set the time for you. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
0 Cushaway Posted November 13, 2013 Author Report Share Posted November 13, 2013 I figured it out... using Vilayer, just went into my epoch hiveext.ini and changed to static time, 6 hr intervals starting at 1800. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
0 havok Posted February 2, 2014 Report Share Posted February 2, 2014 So is that to say you set the offset to 6, the hour to 11, and the type to static? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
0 RipSaw Posted February 2, 2014 Report Share Posted February 2, 2014 Offset doesnt matter if you use static time. Just change to hour to 18 and type to static and your server will go from 6 PM to midnight if you have 6 hour restart cycles. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
0 Guest Posted February 3, 2014 Report Share Posted February 3, 2014 we have a 6 hour restart. server starting at 16 (4 pm) so it SHOULD be around 2.5 hours day, 2 hours dusk and 1,5 ohurs night. Strangely for most players its only day. we had 1 player that reported to see the night nut after a relog it was day for him again. any solution for that?

I'm also with Vilayer and would love to know what you did don't see where you would put the 1800 in at. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
0 GCC99 Posted November 23, 2014 Report Share Posted November 23, 2014 So if we are hosting it from DayZ.ST and we wanted to increase the time of the nights (starting at 4pm) what would one do? And where do we edit the date? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
