    MySQL - Empty Databases?

    what does your log say about mysql errors?

    First personly only

    i think the major issue is flying/driving. it is very hard to land a heli in first person unless its in an open area ... DOH reality strikes again!.. Players want to land that heli on top of a cabin surrounded by trees .. its just,not going to happen. as for "Where are all the players who say they like 1st person and challenging servers?" All those players post those comments on this site, which I bet is mostly server owners/admins. Your average random player wants instant action and gratification. They are logging in now and want instant action NOW. This is NOT tthat game.

    coincidentally, this nearly identical script was posted just last week.

    First personly only

    Agreed, its not just immersion breaking, its not fair. The person can see around the corner or over the fence without being seen. But .. there you go, its an option and its able to be disabled on servers and many servers DO DISABLE 3rd person. Play on those servers. People have a VERY hard time with heli and vehicles .. in first person, there is a script that limits 3rd person to vehicles only that I used for a while before just going full-on first person.

    Server is crashed

    just guessing. i would say this line right before is an indication of a number being larger than the variable that holds it. hence the access violation is a memory error, not really caused BY windows, but from errors in your server. look around line 950, you have pages upon pages of errors. am on my phone so i had to skip most of it .. so i would say you just have a broken server. causes memory error, windows shits it down. there is no one thing i can point at to fix. maybe someone else can decipher those errors. i would reinstall the server and not add in so much garbage next time.

    server help

    as a community, we would like to apologize to INFECTIOUSGAMEZ. There is an unending stream of people asking the same thing, but for some reason (coincidence) this post received the ire from built up frustration. Its nothing personal and you asked a valid question. everything everyone said is true (except nobody cares about the personal attacks over server populations). I ALWAYS help as many people as I can, as often as I can, all for free. It is annoying when the person asks for it all to be done .. i have my own stuff to work on. I have been giving people a bit of help at first and then tell them to install the rest of the scripts themselves and tell me what doesnt work so I can usually tell them they forgot a semicolon on line 45 or something like that. They learn from the experience and are given a sense of pride in the server because they did it themselves. So, to answer the OP.. not likely. but if you install the scripts and post all the errors you will get immediate answers and help on how YOU can fix your problems. In fact you can email me at [email protected] and i will usually reply in just a few minutes ...

    Replace Rain with SandStorm....

    is the question "how to,create sandstorm?" or,what to edit in the weather effects code? https://forums.bistudio.com/topic/186534-mky-sandstorm-script/

    Compatibility issue? Missing UH1H, Ural and Ikarus...

    i could be wrong, but i believe this error is more in the line of incorrect classname issue. what its saying is that the classname exists but is not visible in the current scope or its not really of the vehicle object type. I was getting that same error when i was trying to spawn AI with the bambi overalls. Eventually I just spawned AI and then used forceskin (or some similiar worded command). Anyhow, how about going into the editor and seeing if you can place the huey and check the classname in the mission.sqf 9:15:09 Cannot create entity with abstract type Exile_Chopper_Huey_Green (scope = private?)

    [SOLVED] SQF Function Wiki?

    whoa ... wait , its control + SHIFT + f now? I thought Maca said it was control + f better get a wiki started to document keyboard shortcuts too

    Many players immediately disconnect

    did anyone check the client side log? anyone check the database log? battleye logs? ping related? multiple people running different mods-scripts, i would say its something with exile itself of just coincidence

    no logs

    If players "randomly" lost money .. sucks to be them. The major complaint about keys for vehicles is when players complain that they lost them so its more for admins to do. Admins are there to run the server, not hold everyones hand. As for dupers .. that would be a battleye catch I think. If you want to track players money, add a script to each player that prints their name, ID and money to the logs every X minutes, or when they log in and log out .. whenever it fits your scheme.

    Too Hard..?

    That right there, is the definition of masochistic

    Too Hard..?

    i disagree with some of your observations, others i do agree with. My own opinions follow. dayz standalone is failing because there are 3 zombies, no AI, i have never seen anyone driving, no private servers and its still pretty glitchy. its not too hard, its just kind of monotonous. and every server is the same. a game will be popular not whether its easy or hard, but whether its 'rewarding' to play. and that is where i believe dayz was rewarding but the move to epoch and the limitless loot, vehicles, tanks, helis and weapons removed any rewarding feeling you got from obtaining a DMR or Humvee. You could just go buy one. Do you remember the first time you found a high end sniper rifle? Or you found a random heli crash filled with loot? You accomplished something in the game, it wasnt handed to you, you earned it and it felt good. So to keep Exilemod popular and fun to play, ask yourself what gives you that feeling of achievement in this game? Having a nearly impervious base that any retard can build OR building a small camp that is well hidden but vulnerable? How about buying a rifle from the trader OR prying one from the cold dead hands of that guy you just ambushed. EVEN better if you killed him with a satchel you planted at the door of his invulnerable base ... MUHAHAHA!!! Now my final point is this: if the ability to use certain things is in the game, it doesnt mean EVERY server has to, or will use it. If i want a "too hard to survive" server that nobody likes, thats my decision. There are thousands of servers and each is unique. If the options to make things harder or easier is not available, then all servers will be the same and there might as well only be a single server for all players.

    Sheeps Exile Repack - Expack

    What errors did you get?

    server rpt log says what?

    Everything sells for 1 poptab

    yea it defaults to 50% and there is a config setting for that default amount, i changed mine to 20%. its possible you changed that to some small number inadvertently.
  19. this shouldnt be that difficult. at work on my phone so cant really look at all the code easily. add to each player a mpkilled event handler that will run a simple script that checks if _victim uid == target _victim. if true, now do whatever you want to do with the killer info. what seems to be your current problem? https://community.bistudio.com/wiki/Arma_3:_Event_Handlers#MPKilled

    Config.cpp Help

    and you have repacked the pbo? and still have that error? and i was wrong, spoilers are just as bad LOL. have to use gist

    MySQL NOT Working

    how about posting the complete query you are getting the error about? you didnt answer about strict mode. disable it with SET @@global.sql_mode= '';
  22. ShootingBlanks

    Config.cpp Help

    i hate to say your wrong without seeing the rpt or entire file, but i,have to agree with @wernerz do it again, make sure the file is saved and,pbo repacked. after doublechecking and if you still have the same error, then post your rpt and the config.cpp file post them into spoiler tags so they dont take the entire page.

    Starting a Exile server

    dedicated server is tougher for a first timer because you have to do all the installation and configuration including the mysql server. fortunately there is a forum section on this site just loaded with step by step details to get you started. http://exile.majormittens.co.uk/topic/8368-server-installationupgrade-guide-0941-clementine/

    Creating a second database using Workbench?

    to start from scratch here: If this is not what you are trying to do, explain further. I dont know what you mean by exiting the exile.sql, you can edit whatever you want that file just runs one query after another to insert the tables and data. Creating an exilemod and a second exile database (you got this already but just to be clear) https://youtu.be/qO8Go7e-zKc now creating two connections, one to each database and logging in to demonstrate. https://youtu.be/GkVbFj04Skk
  25. Now that starts to sound like its some other issue. If it was something in the server or network then you would suffer same as all others .. wouldnt you? Sounds suspicious to me of some type of infistar admin thing, you being an admin you would not be subject to the kicks. Why they wouldnt be logged, I dont know. How about you remove yourself from the admin list and see if you get kicked "every 3 minutes like clockwerk".
