Hello,

I apologize for the late response.

I was able to verify the issue on your server. Your server is returning player data to GameTracker, but GameTracker is unable to parse the player data, because the format is slightly different than the other DayZ Epoch servers.

If we notice this behavior more commonly from other DayZ Epoch servers, we will likely update our scanner to correct the issue. Unfortunately, since this is only happening on your server at the moment, we cannot make any changes.

Here is what I would suggest.

Your server is reporting a long "mod" string and "signatures" string. If you can configure your server to prevent reporting these strings, then GameTracker should display your players without error.

Best regards.

i have been through quite a few servers and filtering DayZ it seems this affects a load of servers but also i found several servers with same strings (checked in HLSW) that are reporting correctly.
Is it related to the flatline thread at all?

Hello again,

Yes, I have also confirmed that there some other servers with the same issue. I was able to match the issue on your server with an older DayZ bug report.

It is a lower priority issue for us at the moment, however, I will let you know if we make any changes to fix the issue.

Also, this is not related to the flatline thread.

Best regards.
