Thanks a million!
So it seems like there are more recent tutorials on how to modify and customize a DayZ epoch server.
So SB, you do run an Epoch server?! Do you have it setup where you have full admin capability and can teleport people, etc? BTW, is this a game that requires a great deal...
Hey SB,
Chatted with my son. I loves the server and has expressed interest in an Epoch server as well. So, I assume that the server configuration is similar but not sure how to start.
What are the steps necessary to get one going?

Ok, now I have something else to pick your brain about.
Have a look at this screen dump from this morning. This is me playing on my server with no one else on. I've only ever encountered this once before, on a different server about 1 year ago.
What does this mean? Is my video card...
Hey,
Running the server and DayZ on the same machine slows it down a fair bit. So I decided to setup a server on our laptop so that DayZ will run a little smoother on my machine. My machine is an old XP based system and the laptop is a slightly newer HP with Vista on it.
So I basically copied...
Hey Shooting Blanks. Don't do this at work if it causes you trouble or stress. I can wait until later, it's not the end of the world so to speak. Well maybe end of world on the server!!! LOL
So again, to change to version 1.8.2:
1) Delete @DayZ from client and server,
2) Delete @hive from server,
3) Delete MPMissions from server,
4) Copy @DayZ 1.8.2 to server and client,
5) Copy @hive 1.8.2 to server
6) Copy MPmissions 1.8.2 to server,
7) Copy mission file to MPmissions in server...
It looks like some of the changes takes place with .hpp and .cpp files.
It's been a while since I have touched C++ but this will be fun.
One questions regarding the server, I've been having difficulty with drinks not bringing down my thirst level, or raising my hydration. I drank 3 pepsi's...
Dayz_server.pbo? Ok, I will have a look.
BTW, does the PBO manager allow repacking of the PBO files?
What do you use to extract the hpp/cpp files, modifying them and then repackaging them?
They mention a tutorial..... it might be my old eyes but all that I have seen so far are some discussion about what loot has been banned, what is spawned in client's system and what is spawned via server.
Still searching....
EDIT:
Can't find tutorial....
EDIT: Oh I found it! Under...
The reason I asked about navicat is that I was hoping to change the startup gear and help the players to start with a 1911, a coyote backpack, bandage, 1 food and flares.
I saw this done on Youtube where you use a DayZ Loadout Generator, select the startup gear, take the generated code and...
Ok, you won't believe it. The server works and I logged in! I found out that I had to be online with Steam to work. It will not work if I play this offline. WOW. Amazing! Thanks for all your help. You have helped me immensely!
Ok, now I need to chat with you in regards to changing various...
Ok, I followed your directions to the letter. I still have the same Wait for host issue.
Just out of curiosity, when I try to join the server, does steam have to be online or can we do this offline??
Is the issue with my machine in terms of firewall? I have XP, soon to be purchasing a new...
Oh my. That is interesting. I thought that I had the mission in the correct folder format within the MPMission folder. But you have a CONFIG folder and i have a cfgdayz folder. Wow, so my folders are messed up a bit.
So now, regarding the mpmissions folder. That is the config that I got...
I can't even join an online game, I get the same Wait for host issue.
BTW, what is the URL that you use to download all other DayZ mods?
I tried something else. I tried to create a new session within the Arma2:OA - DayZ mod enviroment. I got to the options page where you could choose the map...
the dayz_server.zip file contains the arma2 and arma2oa stuff including the dll files and other files that are in the main directory. Do you want me to delete those files?
The @hive folder contains the addons/dayz_server.pbo and the hiveext file as well. So it's small in comparison to the...
BTW, in the @hive/Addons folder, there is a dayz_server.pbo file. Do we need to extract the contents into the @hive folder?? Isn't a pbo file just a compressed file that needs to be extracted?
Hmmm I guess not... there are about 100 pbo files in this server directory
I verified that those .dll files were properly copied over, including the hiveext.dll. Problem still persists.
I also managed to change the port number to 3307, I had to change 4 files. The startup window showed the port number being 3307 but it didn't help. So I changed it back to 3306.
I...
