Death messages

[Nelumbo]

Hello - I have a utes server on dayz.st. They do not have a live map, so I am constantly having to rely on logs to ban hackers, and there isnt much I can do about spawn campers.

I am trying to find a WORKING death messages script, or some kind of admin tool that will tell me who killed who in the logs so that I can get rid of spawn campers much easier.

This is a huge problem as many people come on to utes just to camp the player spawn.

I am in the same boat. I think the issue is the above link is specified for 1.7.6.1, and if you're running a different map that might be still based on 1.7.4.4 (such as Taviana, in my case), it won't work. I have been on a Tavi server that had this working, I'm just not sure how.

Edit: I stand corrected. Someone over here http://opendayz.net/index.php?threads/death-msgs-on-dayz-st.8467/#post-25778 has it working on Taviana. Now I'm even more stumped.

Alright - I added it and changed some spelling errors I found. I looked in my RPT file and this is what I get when a player joins.

Looks like an issue with your dayz_server.pbo to me, files are missing.

You mentioned typos. You found typos in the link above to add kill messages?

I verified the missing files - which were there. I had not edited them. As far as typos go... I found them in the file you must download.

Line 1 - private ["_victim", "_attacker","_weapon","_distance","_victimPlayerID","_attakerPlayerID"]

The last string I edited to _attackeerPlayerID

Line 21 & 23 - _attakerPlayerID = getPlayerUID _attacker;

diag_log format["PHIT: %1 (%5) was hit by %2 (%6) with %3 from %4m", _victim, _attacker, _weapon, _distance, _victimPlayerID, _attakerPlayerID];

Changed both instances of attaker to attacker.

Does anyone have any idea of what would cause the files to become missing? They aren't missing. They are physically there but aren't being initiated. I think it has something to do with the way the fnc_plyrhit file is added and initiated.
