Adding an Admin in Reign of Kings
So you want to add someone as an admin on your Reign of Kings server? Well after a bit of time trying to figure it out myself I finally succeeded. It took so long to figure out the correct syntax I thought I better post it in case anyone else is having trouble.
Find the currently empty users section inside your permissions.cfg:
users {
}
For each user add in the following inside the existing user brackets above:
KenMerritt {
groups {
- 'admin'
}
}
DayZ Server Finder
Wanting to find out what server you are on in DayZ? Or trying to find the last server you were on? I have here two very simple batch files that will do that for you. They both do basically the same thing, so you can pick either one. In either case follow the directions below.
1. Create a new text file
2. Insert the code from either one into the file and save it as something like DayZ Server.bat
3. You will probably have to change the extension manually to .bat from .txt
4. When you double click it, it should run. If it doesn’t you probably have certain file extensions hidden and your DayZ Server.bat is actually DayZ Server.bat.txt
Number 1
find "lastMPServer" %userprofile%\documents\dayz\%username%.dayzprofile >%temp%\dayzip.txt | notepad %temp%\dayzip.txt
Fixing Minecraft Mouse Lag
I’ve been playing the Direwolf20 1.7.10 pack of Minecraft from the FTB Launcher, and I’ve been suffering from lag in it for some time. I had chalked it up to my computer and low FPS or to my slow internet connection to the server I play on. However, recently I noticed that it was actually centered around my mouse and keyboard. If I stand still and move my mouse enough for my character to do a 180, my mouse moves a consistent distance each time. In my case it’s about 1 inch. However, if I hold down a button on my keyboard and repeat the same thing with my mouse, I find my character turns wildly different amounts each time. Holding the key down for my push to talk in Teamspeak might mean I need to move my mouse 1 inch to do a 180, and 2 seconds later, I might need to move my mouse 4 inches to perform the same 180. It’s like someone is controlling my mouse sensitivity and randomly changing it from 20-100, but only as long as some key on my keyboard is held down. My friend playing the exact same mod pack, and the exact same server, does not experience this.
