It will but if you spawn buildings in that are not allowed by Dayz it will cause WAIT FOR HOST problems.

See if anything @ this topic helps. viewtopic.php?f=3&t=610 You did not give any detailed information regarding what you did to your server prior to trying to start it and get it running. So I cannot assist you and neither will the tech team unless details about what has been done are given. I run 1.7.6.1 chernarus, 102591 beta patch. Could be the beta patch you are running is causing issues.

Have you received your email saying the server was up and running? Did you change any settings in the TC admin function? You have given little information to work on for people like myself who have ran servers here for 3 months or longer. Mine works flawless with tons of custom content. 90% of issue I find are user error but I cannot narrow it down and neither can the tech team without support tickets with detailed information.

Should be able to have anything changed via support ticket for the time being. Arma 2 servers are new here and I'm sure they are working on new features for all customers.

I would like to say that I appreciate your thought out response to your issues. It is crucial that the tech team receives this type of feedback from our customers so they can improve overall experience. I am not a paid member of survival servers or part of their tech team but I chose this role to assist where I can. I can only guess that the clean up script you refer to is the run task script in the DayZ tools section. I would like to point out I never run that and don't find myself having any issues. I actually had more issues the time I manually used it. Right now my server is running smooth and has been for weeks. I have battle eye extended controls installed, chernarus (standard dayz), and patch 102591 installed. I know 102591 to be stable and works just fine. I have custom buildings, loadouts, auto refuel, 24 hour daylight, and more functioning properly. I understand where you are coming from as the beginning wasn't smooth either. I was making errors and doing small stuff that would stop the server from functioning properly. I would suggest not running that tool and set up battle eye extended controls. The scheduler.xml is how to set up restarts and we have an excellent FAQ in that section of the forums. I hope we can get this resolved for you right away.

Might have to manually delete them from the Database. FAQ section has how to add vehicles FAQ just reverse the process. NOTE: If you are using hacks/scripts outside of SS you may be subject to global ban by battle eye.

No need. It should be known that if you wish to add custom content to your server you will have to conduct the research to do so. Arma 2 has endless possibilities and only thing restricting the ability to change the game is how much knowledge one has about the game.

I know this is a late reply but for future reference it is the HMMWV_DZ anything with _DZ for the most part will spawn. However some items were made _DZ for other maps and those won't work except on that map.

Mod Manager > Bliss > Battleye Btw, you shouldn't be getting admin banned unless you have an antihack screening for something and it is doing bans automatically. I have never had this problem on my server.

I didn't know how to do any of it either but after many hours between google and myself I was able to figure it out. There are several guides on how to do auto refuel and I know I just helped someone else with it in another thread.

Utilize research and search here on the forums. This has been discussed before in several threads. We even have an FAQ section of the forums which explains how to add buildings. Once you learn it, it isn't that complicated. Customizing your server is something you must do on your own for the most part. There is a wiki out there with a list of all arma 2 and OA classnames. It is also in the FAQ section. Best of luck and next time please read around first.

-mod=@MODFOLDERNAME is the standard arma 2 syntax for launching with a mod.

Your database which stores all the vehicle spawns, buildings, and your character should still be just fine. TSW may need to be set up again if the information it uses has changed.

Q 1: Every time i spawn in a new vehicle on the Map tool i get banned after restarting server, i cleared the ban countless times but its just geting stupid and annoying is there a way to make it so this doesnt happen?. im whitelisted and my GUID is in the admin thing. We need more details regarding what vehicles and what else you tried to do before you were banned. What kind of ban is it? A global ban? Admin ban? If your name isn't on a ban list in the battle eye client, DART, gotcha, or TSW you should be fine. Q 2: When someone fires a missle,cannon or something very powerfull or crashes a helicopter they get kicked, how do i stop this?. This is because battle eye is designed to kicked for things that shouldn't be happening. You will have to research what lines in the remoteexec text and other files you will have to change. I have a kick for #146 and so far have been unable to fix it when someone crashes. Not survival servers fault it is battle eye. Q 3: When i enter the Admin Panel on the server i can log in but when i click anything i get kicked. You don't get to use the in game admin panel. Use tools like DART, gotcha anti hack, and TSW. If you must use in game you type #login password into the chat and it logs you in as admin. Then you can use #kick player and so on. Q 4: 1 of the owners tryed to get rMod to work but the files dont seem to wonna save any ideas ? I have had nothing but issues with rmod and decided it wasn't worth it. You can see if the tech team is able to help. Q 5: Whats the average wait time to get TSW, we got our server on th 4th almost a week now and we've had no replys on support ticket or emails. I received mine rather quickly. Survival Servers must contact the dev, get a licnese, set it up, give you the info so you can set some other details up, and then the developer has a process to finally get it working. The key to support tickets is create a new one for each issue. Do not reply and add to your current ticket as it looks like it has been responded to. Hope this helps a little bit.

Waiting at all for something good in this day and age seems hard. Having people who appreciate what they have seems hard. Survival Servers has probably tripled their customers by offering arma 2 and arma 3 regular servers. Same amount of employees plus more customers equals more workload. They could very well be more employees on the way but how do you expect them to notify you of a problem you don't have until something happens. It may have not been their servers that went down. Something could have been corrupted by the user or changed incorrectly. You cannot account for everything. Places like day.st, vilayer, and other hosts are the type once you give them your money they are happy. They will respond with generic answers sooner than 24 hours but results will take longer. I have nothing to gain by acting nice or singing praises. I do so out of my own free will because the company has proven to me that they do care. Something that is hard to find with companies these days. Your server will be up and running and you will forget about this incident when weeks pass by with no issues. Out of three months of hosting I have had a handful of days of downtime. #1 reason, user error, causing the server not to load properly. If you are not satisfied that is between you and the tech team. You can discuss via support ticket what you would like to do. I always ask people to be patient because everything takes time. People want instant results today and that can't always happen. Sometimes you just have to wait a little bit to get what you really want.

No problem. Best of luck.

Something to do with your connection to the server. Only time I have desync issues is when I have a heavy internet load or a group of people with higher pings on the server.

You are going to need to create a support ticket. Also read my replies here: viewtopic.php?f=8&t=604

My server has been running smooth for over 24 hours. Please wait for a response from your support ticket. Could be anything from user error to technical issue. I will be passing on this information but please create a support ticket if you have not done so already. A support ticket would be between the server owner and the tech team. You would not see any information regarding the status. Most people will post about the problem and when it is fixed leave to go play. I can assure you survival servers does their best to make sure all servers are running at 100% effectiveness. Won't ask you for anything more than to be patient. I can assure you that Survival Servers doesn't "half a#$" anything they do for their customers. The tech team dedicates a lot of time and effort to bring us excellent servers at a low cost. Three months ago I got back into DayZ finding out that most private hives sucked due to selfish admins and terrible hosts. I decided it was time to create my own server and created the DayZ community that enjoyed playing the game the way it was designed to be played. I found Survival Servers and knowing it was a newer smaller company I took a chance and rented a server. I am glad I did. Survival Servers gave me the opportunity to create a DayZ community a 100+ strong and growing. I started just like anyone else not knowing anything about servers. Created a bunch of support tickets and having them resolved. I would like to point out that almost 90% of those tickets were resolved and the problem was user error and not an error on Survival Servers Part. They have been improving on tools for the servers, improving the host harddrives, and more since I've joined. I offered my help as a moderator here to help the new people just like I was three months ago. You may see your downtime and no response in six hours as a bad customer service but I see it as providing better service because within 24 hours you will have your issue resolved or a real response that will help fix your issue. You could go with a dedicated server elsewhere and pay 100+/mo to run and set it up yourself or find another company like Survival Servers but you won't find quality customer experience or people who want to help you and want to provide you with a great server. All we ask is for a little patience and we will help you. My advice for support tickets is to document everything you have done. Give the most detailed logs of what you did and when you did it. Also do not reply to the support ticket if another issue arises. Create a new one. The support ticket system shows how long one has been sitting around with no reply and those are responded to first. Don't be afraid to create those tickets. You can always manually close it from the email if you resolve it yourself. Also you can help other forum members by sharing how you fixed issues in new topics. Stick around and you'll see why I have enjoyed my time with this company. I am about to start up a second server soon.

I had that issue as well once when trying to host my own lingor island map. A support ticket should clear it up. I am not part of the tech team and don't know why it does that sometimes.

Look into rmod or do a lot of research into coding and changing arma. There are endless possibilities as you can see from the EPOCH mod and other version of dayz that have been released. Just need to have the knowledge. I am been spending countless hours researching and changing items. Not easy and still haven't go to where I want to be yet.

First, I'd download DayZ commander: http://www.dayzcommander.com/ Why? because it is by far the best program dedicated for DayZ and all of the DayZ mods that have come out. It will allow you to download and install any clientside files you need. Second, I'd check out this topic and make sure you are following this guide. viewtopic.php?f=3&t=535 Lastly, Probably should have been the first thing but you have received your welcome email with all the information correct? If so then follow the guide above and you should be good to go.

For me not having the antihacks won't be a problem. I have a strong white listed community that will jump on and play but unless you have that EPOCH mod will make it extremely hard to moderate.
