Updated update. Setting verifySignatures = 2; still DOES NOT WORK!
I completely forgot about this but the devs need to add in the correct .bikeys for the .pbo files that the game uses.
Setting verifySignatures = 2; will stop anyone from joining your server.
Nothing we can do to stop this, devs need to go onto this ASAP so vote this up guys.
Ok update time.
Our server provider has given us the option of setting a custom verifySignatures = option. We have set it to 2 but in the actual config it reads as verifySignatures = $$sv_pure$$; not verifySignatures = 2; as it should be. I've asked them to change it to that to test with as currently using verifySignatures = $$sv_pure$$; you are still able to join the server without the files.
Well I tried to change our servers config but at the minute they are read only. I've submitted a ticked to see if either they can change it or let the owners of the server change it. Will report back tomorrow as soon as I get a reply.
Sorry for the lack of comms, this Christmas thing isn't all it's cracked up to be!
This was solved in Arma 2 by setting verifySignatures = 2; in the server config. This simply does not allow people to join without those files.
Will test on our server soon and report back.
This works fine. Press space to shoulder your weapon.
Not sure what you mean, this is how it's always been?
As for logging in as a fresh spawn, there was a DB wipe yesterday evening. Expect plenty more where that came from. Don't get attached to your gear!
Completely stutter free tonight. May be down to individual server settings/hardware?
Been on GB 1-188 server for more than an hour and non of the guys I am playing with have had any stuttering this session.
High end loot is still far too common.
Seems as the sounds are actually coming from your character. Other players near you can hear the zombie sounds also.
