We're actually setting up a private hive while we wait for a key. Server is up but we're having trouble locating it...

We'll let it run for a day or two just on case there are any tweaks needed and then we'll make an announcement.

Will it be setup where forum registration and approval is required to be able to join the server?

Haven't really gotten to that far of detail since it was kind of a crap shoot just to get the server up and running. Going to need to get Bunni involved and see what we can do.

How about a sutom loot and suply drops?
I am one of many who would love to see this option.Also if is possible add server message restart counter and allow custom faces.
Server being prety stable last night and i am not expiriencing any lag playing from Europe. Server clock looks also screwed up because i was playing night time last night and hoped on to it this morning until 13:00 CET and it was still dark.

Server crashed around 14:00 and i lost my Coyote while i was trying to put another alice pack on the police car.

Car is located at Cherno near the hospital,stay away from it or blood will be spilled

Played for a few hours on the TPG server. Had a few hiccups with connections but they were client side. If you see some kicks or disconnects in the logs, it was nothing server side that we can tell.

It seemed to run very stable and my ping is good all the way up here in the north east. The server is also now showing up in DayZ commander. I had to reset filters and refresh all servers and it showed up.

As i understand it we were/are running DayZ vanilla on a private hive. I believe after last nights extensive experiment there will need to be some tweaking of the weapon, vehicle and loot tables.

Currently, vehicle spawns are taken from the entire vehicle list, of the 3 types of vehicles we found, only the bicycle was a standard. Kill8ox found a police car, and we then found a Military land rover at Green Mountain where the Camo UAZ usually spawns. Personally i like the idea of having different (and more) vehicles than vanilla DayZ.

We did a chopper search at 3 of the 4 popular spawn sites before we realized the default spawn rate on the chopper is 5-7 days, so we are pretty sure no chopper spawned in.

Anyway, good times last night, i'll be on again tonight and ready to help with any testing and configuration we need.

Voted in pole. In light of Max's arguments i voted in favor of way points. Its the one thing that will drastically help newer or less frequent players get around the map. I personally like the challenge of not having them, BUT it aint about what i like.
