Arma II: DayZ

[Aada]

Not sure what's up with the 105 uk server but me,mabs and pretty much everyone on the server were getting kicked almost every 10 mins due to battleye script thingy, probably explains why the server had no more than about 5 people

Found by script kiddies it sounds

Email the dude and let him know, might be something up with it in general that he can look at.

 

[Mabs]

battleye script 95 or something isnt it ?

 

[Calaen]

Looks more like a Battleeye problem.

 

[Calaen]

yeah #98 for me, it's on the dayz mod forums, so hopefully they'll sort their shit out!

 

[Mabs]

there is a new version out 95913, up from 95883, didnt want to patch incase its out of sync (thats on Dayz Commander)

[Calaen]

[Calaen]

rofl you join and loads of people get kicked Mabs

 

[Aada]

I take it either the land rover got stolen or one of you smashed it up logged on items missing from tents although i dunno if they have been stolen or the server ate them.

we moved some of the stuff into other tents, some of it evaporated after a restart, dont know what happened to your jihad jeep tho, i thought youd moved it or it had bugged out :/
as50 disappeared, as did 10 boxes of .50 cal ammo for it

 

[old.Osy]

I logged off early last night, we re-arranged the tents a bit due to me fucking up and packing a tent which dropped on the ground under another one, so we could not pick it up. Items got re-distributed among the tents, also i duped a SVD Camo by accident, after script error #98 kicked me off the server (I had just moved a SVD Camo from a tent to the jeep, upon logging back in the one in the tent was still there, but it was also in the jeep).

I still think we should either find another tent and setup a secondary further from the current, or just relocate one of the tents.

Nice bit of carjacking! someone had parked in cherno, saw them from the firehouse. Sneaked my way down, tore off in it to the sound of pistol fire. Got a little bit away to check my haul. 2 pairs of nightvision goggles, a Bizon, bunch of ammo and some meds. Grabbed what I wanted then blew the car up.

"Rock, Paper Shotgun caught up with Arma II modder Dean Hall at this week's Gamescom. The braaaaains behind the zombie-centric DayZ mod revealed that player-driven construction is in the works for the mod's eventual stand-alone client.

Hall says that the feature will probably take the form of underground bases accessed via portals (think a grate in the ground). He's leaning toward having players dig out the space, pour concrete, set up hydroponics, and possibly even have the structure collapse around them if it's a particularly gruesome day.

DayZ's stand-alone client will also feature a revamped Chernarus that features more buildings you can actually enter as well as more detail and "entirely new areas."

 

[old.Tohtori]

Loaded the game finally. When i get home have to do the whole install malarky, but otherwise i think my first day will go into trying to navigate the horrid UI

 

[Raven]

Yeah its not the best but its actually very functional once you get used to it. I suggest using dayz commander and filtering to a low pop daytime server to get used to it.

Helped me really well. Especially this;

Advanced Settings
I just found this out and it can GREATLY increase your FPS. It doubled for me, I was at a steady 30+ before while now I get a steady 60+.
Go to your documents folder, in there you find an Arma 2 folder (you can also go via start -> run and then type "%userprofile%\Documents\ARMA 2\" without quotes in windows 7 or vista). In that folder are Arma2.cfg and Arma2oa.cfg, edit those files and change the 2 corresponding lines to this:
GPU_MaxFramesAhead=1;
GPU_DetectedFramesAhead=1;

Got everything working and learned most of stuff that i need to know;

1 death; fell of stairs and broke me legs.
2 death; rolled into a rock and broke my legs again.
3 death; saw an ATV, got sniped.
4 death; met another player who proceeded to bash my head in with a crowbar whle i learned how to equip a hatchet.
5 death; ran into another player, he ran past me, he brought zombie friends.

Now alive with a fair deal of gear, 6 soda cans, some wire, ammo, flares and whatnot, bigger backpack.

Last moment; joined a nightserver to see what that's about, switched to flashlight, lost my gun through the floor.

Amazing game considering how crap it is

 

[old.Tohtori]

Interesting to read now that electro is a main PVP hub that shouldn't be ventured in too easily, when i spent 2-3 hours yesterday looting around the place andmy save is in there

Natural born survivor skillz.

 

[Raven]

Don't use the flashlight. It's like a big neon sign to snipers announcing your presence.

 

[Calaen]

The inventory issues are a pain in the arse, make sure you drop your back pack on the floor before changing clothes, as it tends to create a brand new empty back pack overwriting the one you've got loads of stuff in.

At the moment the tents and vehicles seem to be even worse, currently got a bus and tractor and an offroad vehicle in our camp, it's been a good week We were going to move camps once we got the vehicles but it's pointless with the state of tents and saving the items!

 

[megadave]

How do I find this camp?
