Guys, our servers have been hacked twice today, the core staff is aware of this and are doing there best too figure out what and who is going on. If people keep hacking our server please notify an admin and be patient. We are trying to find out who it is through a process of elimination. If you get kicked from one of our servers and you are not the hacker just stay out of the server for a bit and come back when its restarted or things are under control.
Information that can help us!
- Recent unknown players that connect before the hack
- Players not being affected by the hack
- People who are being funny
- What exactly is happening
Please be carefull on who you accuse. And be patient with the AW Staff.
We are currently testing a official AhoyWorld shared-drive that will always contain the latest mods that are allowed on our server.
How does this work ?
- This is a shared-drive that will synchronize among all users that are connected to it
- As it is works without central server, please keep the tool running on your computer, even after you downloaded all mods
- The files will then synchronize to a folder on you computer, and you can copy them from there to your arma directory
- Remember the more users we have the quicker you will be able to sync your files and any updates.
Getting started:
1 - Install btsync from here: http://www.bittorrent.com/sync/downloads
2 - During the install it will ask if you have a secret, use this code: BJAVS2VSH4J5KAYLPGDVP67P3NNFMWIPT
3 - Make sure you point the program to a new empty folder that is easy for you to remember
4 - Wait till it is fully synchronized
How to easily start the mods ?
You can use a little tool called Arma3sync, it will automatically find the mods you have copied into your Arma-folder, so you dont have to install them, not even have to add them to you arma-startup. This little tool manages it all for you:
Now this is a trial, so if we manage to get enough users for this, we will probably keep this running and up to date. If it works properly we will add another repository for game-night specific mods.
Feel free to use this thread to ask any questions you might have about btsync and\or arma3sync, also if you notice an updated version of any of the mods, please report it here, so the staff can update the syncdrive and distribute the latest version to everyone.
