So a while back I created a string quartet arrangement of the death theme for DayZ mod. Turns out it was a song borrowed from a semi-obscure TV depiction of old Japanese horror stories (at least it was really freaking hard to find ANYTHING on the show, possibly due to lack of American imports). Anyways, I attached links for the PDF of sheet music, the .MIDI if you want to use it in Synthesia or electric keyboards, and an .MP3 for casual listening. Hope you enjoy! David375 https://drive.google.com/open?id=0B7hS_um_ONY2cXJ0MW9UY1lWN3M MIDI https://drive.google.com/open?id=0B7hS_um_ONY2LWNQRThLYWtvNlk MP3 https://drive.google.com/open?id=0B7hS_um_ONY2OUNUZXNaaEw5QkE PDF

Depending if I find time, I may or may not take suggestions as to future pieces to arrange. I really like ones where no sheets seem to exist, or where arrangements are limited in scope, because I get to listen to the song 100+ times to write it down I am currently considering "Perfect Area Complete", the opening theme from "Baka to Test to Shoukanjuu Ni", because the only worthy arrangement so far on youtube was someone who learned from ear, never wrote down the music, and can't satisfy demand from commenters. But I'll save this kind of stuff for the Non-DayZ sections of the forum.

You are very welcome! I can't wait to see the final outcome if you do any edits. I am going to either attempt to play this myself or get a friend from school to give me a hand in producing this, but I'll see.

Thanks. I picked the quartet feeling partially because it was already written in that set, and partially because I wanted to convince myself I should teach myself cello just for this piece. I always needed an excuse, but haven't had the time or have been too lazy. You are right that it sounds a little angelic, but I believe that was because the music wasn't written FOR the game, but borrowed from another source. Thus the mismatch in feeling/tone/instrument selection. I still love the piece though, has lots of nostalgia for me. I may try a rewrite of the song at a future time, perhaps arrange it for piano instead. The Gentleman one came from my favorite English teacher, back in 9'th grade. Weirdest dude I've ever met. The efficiency one just came from one of those funny/motivational posters, I still have it on my old 3rd Gen Ipod touch. The last one was just a personal extra.

sorry I had failed to make the files public on Drive, it should be good to go now.

Airsoft Wars in DayZ: Standalone Next Operational Date: 4/4/15, 12:00 PM EST, Sverengrino Hall, 3v3 Team Deathmatch Entry fee: Extra copies of whatever you can find from the volunteer list below Food/Drink will be provided if possible, limited # of guns available for borrowing Server: lastMPServer="142.111.2.174:2302"; lastMPServerName="DayZ Roleplay - Rhinocrunch.com"; Attendance: Myself InsaneRuffles Please bring your own: .22lr Rifle/Handgun (Trumpet, Sporter, Amphibia) HEADGEAR (we aren't responsible if you die from a HS, medics will be on standby) RED or BLUE T-Shirt that you spawn with (to ensure uniformity). Other colors will be indicated if necessary Sewing Kits/Leather Patch Kits 10rnd magazines for Amphibia or Sporters are optional, NO 30rnd SPORTER MAGS DISCLAIMER: Limited numbers of SMERSH bags will be provided for ammunition storage in-match, PLEASE do not bring anything valuable as we are not responsible for theft by other players. IMPROVISED SUPPRESSORS are welcome, use at your own expense (they won't be provided). Limited amounts of ammunition will be provided, but please bring your own just in case. For this first match, we are saying NO MAKAROVS as they kill in just two or three hits, and are too easy to spam in an emergency. We may consider allowing Makarovs for chambering rounds only in the future. All borrowed items from David375's Airsoft, LLC, are distributed on a first-come, first serve basis, and are not guaranteed to be in any specific condition. RULES: 1) No intentional killings. 2) No destruction of personal property other than game materials 3) No racist/sexist language during the event 4) No theft of personal property 5) To help with attendance (and scaring off scrubs due to the appearance of being a big clan), you must put [AIM] in front of your name before you arrive. If you are found to not have this tag, you will be given a single chance to log off and add it. If you do not, we assume you to be a party crasher and you will be killed. Breaking any of these rules will result in the forceful ejection from the stadium via violently exploding land mines and/or shotgun shells. Unintentional killings will result in a temporary suspension from events on first occurrence, long-lasting KO via tasers on second offense, death by firing squad on third occurrence and every following offense. INSTRUCTIONS: THE GAME: Each team will begin from their set point, and will compete for a set objective. The various objectives include CAPTURE THE JACKET, KING OF THE CASTLE, BESIEGED, and more to follow. When the match is started via "starter gun" (Flare guns, gunshots, whatever we have on hand), each team will attempt to complete the objective. Capture the Jacket: Each team is given a Rain Jacket of their color to defend from the other team. The objective is to wear said jacket from the opposing side of the "map" to their own without it being ruined. If the jacket is ruined, the jacket is discarded and cannot be used to win the game. When one side either captures an opposing jacket in Badly Damaged condition or above, Downs or Kills all of the enemy team, OR runs out of jackets of their own color without a successful capture by the enemy team, they win the game. Team sizes may vary by attendance of the event and map size. King of the Castle: Both teams start outside a castle, and compete to hold the top of a castle tower at the end of a set time point. Whoever holds the top of the castle at that end point wins the game. Another winning condition includes downing the entire enemy team. Team sizes may vary on the event and castle size. Besieged: Similar to King of the Castle, but starts with one team occupying the tower. The opposing team must attempt to force their way into the tower and occupy the roof of the tower for one and a half consecutive minutes. The attacking team wins when they either successfully hold the roof of the tower or down the entire defending team. Due to the defensive, campy nature of the castle towers, the defending team will be noticeably smaller than the assaulting teams to balance the Pickett's Charge-esque casualties the Attacking team will most likely suffer. Rules are subject to change for this mode above all. Team Deathmatch: Very straightforward. Aim to down or "kill" every player on the enemy team. Only one path to victory in this one. Taking out Other Players: Downed vs Dead When your T-Shirt becomes ruined, you are out of the game, labeled "Killed". If your shirt is damaged in a noticeable way (Such that it shows damaged textures ie "Damaged" or "Badly Damaged" condition) but NOT RUINED, you must go prone, put away your gun, and remain put. This is the "downed" state, in which only your team medic can "Revive" you. Each team will receive a certain number of "Team Medics", who will carry Sewing Kits which can be used to "revive" any other player by having said player drop their shirt to be repaired by the medic. If your Team Medic is down, only another Team Medic can revive him or her. Another method of disarming an opponent is to knock out the player via a taser device, ie Cattle Prod or Stun Baton, whichever is preferred. This is an instant "kill", whether or not the player had their shirt ruined or not. If a player's shirt is ruined, they must remain prone and attempt to vacate the arena via crawling, where they will then be treated by staff medics to prevent death. Post-Match: Once you have vacated the arena, seek a staff medic who will tend to your medical needs. You may then help yourself to provided food and drink to keep your character healthy, and resupply your character with necessary goods (replacing shirts, backpacks, ruined ammunition, etc) for your next match. I originally made this post because I wanted to see a proper event where we gather enough people together to form "paintball/airsoft" teams to play organized friendly games. The way it works is we would gather a lot of Sporter .22's or Trombones, and use armbands to determine color teams. When someone's shirt or pants is ruined, they are out and must go prone and crawl out of the stadium. We could limit people to chambering rounds if we have enough sporters (or 10rnd magazines only), or Trombone only if we have enough of those in order to prevent deaths and/or maimings. A lot of cool game modes could be made up based on the area, such as Capture the Flag (Must put on a certain colored jacket from one team's side of a town and wear it back to the other side without it being ruined), or King of the Hill (who ever holds the top of a castle tower at the end of a time period wins). Some of the different playing fields I suggest: Devil's Castle (for obvious reasons) Camp Krusty / Camp Granada (New summer camp) Sverengrino "Castle" (has a nice linear section with minor side-wall obstacles. nice 3v3 short battles) Skalisty Castle Complex (larger than Devil's, also more isolated) Prison Island (low-pop server for obvious reasons) Some various far-northern or far northeastern towns to provide a relatively unfamiliar combat ground (Ex. Stary Yar, Sinistok, Karmanovka/Dobroe) Some cool elements could be used in certain fights such as walkie talkies (if no public teamspeak is provided, would be more realistic this way but requires more preparation). This would be realistic and could provide interesting scenarios of spying over radio chat vs spying. If enough people would be willing to participate, we could work together to provide some safety equipment such as motorbike helmets, gorka helmets, medical supplies, and possibly all sorts of cool stuff. However, the event would most likely be BYOR, unless volunteers happen to scavenge up enough rifles. Ammunition would be easy to provide, with enough time and/or volunteers. IF WE GET ENOUGH VOLUNTEERS, THE EQUIPMENT NEEDED WOULD BE: Sporter .22lr OR Trumpet .22lr .22lr ammunition Rain Jackets (DO NOT CUT INTO ARMBANDS YET PLEASE. armbands have a limited view range so we may just decide to wear the jacket as a whole for increased visibility) Medical supplies (Saline preferred, only O- blood, lots of rags for splints/bandaging, Epinephrine for waking up match KO's) Helmets, preferably with facial protection (Motorbike, Gorka w/ Faceplate is preferred, but Ballistic helmets will do. Aiming for the face is discouraged anyways) Farming Equipment w/ Pumpkin seeds (extremely high-energy food, similar to Rice but is growable and renewable, and actually adds hydration too. Great for feeding crowds and getting energized/hydrated for blood restoration) Sewing Kits (Patching rain jackets mid-match could allow you to stay in the game longer, as well as repairing post-game for re-use) SMERSH Backpacks Use as ammunition bags for matches without risking damaging a larger backpack Possibly .22lr 10rnd magazines? (could cause deaths if people start spamming, not preferred but may be necessary to compete with chambering Sporters vs integral-magazine Trombones) NO 30rnd, since it's too easy to spam and kill someone, also it's an unfair advantage over Trombone users. Amphibia .22lr would be welcome, but probably won't show up anyhow because they are so absurdly rare. Also, no guarantee that we could provide ANY magazines. Possibly improvised suppressors? Could be optional for those who find the needed materials. Suitable melees could include stun weapons: Electric cattle prods and stun batons could be used to KO players out of a match without killing.

I may attempt to reorganize this when I get the chance. I have been super busy with testing (ACT and SAT + Subject tests), so I haven't had much time. If I manage to find a low-pop private server I will definitely give this a shot again.

So from my experience, I sorta dislike the new loot system's configuration. They tried to eliminate lootsplosions, but then I find lootsplosions of clothes only in the smallest, dumbest places. Also, I am still finding weird items in random places (Amphibian S in a civi barrack, in Chernaya Polana). Not sure if the randomized loot is intended, but I sort of like the mild surprise. Other than that, every item remotely useful has disappeared into the wide blue yonder, so GL making it out of Berezino. I purposely got myself infected with Cholera, and have only one description: OP. Your only hope for survival is to carry lots of water bottles, or if you are on experimental and can't find jack S**t outside of sweaters, tie yourself permanently to a well for up to 10 IRL HOURS. Took me two hours to get though the first stage alone, which wasn't too bad to move around. Once I hit second stage, I dropped from full hydration to dehydration red in an extremely short time, in which I have lost all my blood and have been tethered to a well for hours. You lose hydration so fast that you get stuck in an endless hydrate-vomit-hydrate-vomit-die of starvation cuz you have NO FOOD. I have stayed alive only because the gods blessed me with enough stuff to farm pumpkins, but even on the fast blood regen rate I am only staying neutral bood. Became the most boring game ever, and it still isn't over, just got tired of farming and drinking to oblivion. Sorry for the rant.

Not sure if it was this patch or last, but a fire station was added to Berezino.

so no one wants to do this? I waited and no one came, so I take that as a no.

Yes, I have seen the Prison Island guard rooms (above the workshop hallway to the prison yard) hyperlooted, although it was extremely rare (only one server of the 30-40 I hopped over a few days). Had AKS-74U's and AK-74's spilling out of the windows, and enough OREL uniforms to clothe an army. Don't even start on the MP5 magazines.

Turns out my parents have planned a lunch outing, so if anyone wants to attend let's move it back to 1:30 PM EST

I may be slightly late to start, got stuck doing lawn work from Dad. Will keep you updated

Alright guys, the server is picked and I've got a bit of supplies to start. I still need you guys to find some more guns, I only have two trumpets and a sporter. Otherwise I have jackets so we can play a few rounds until they are all ruined and then just go pick up odds and ends shirts to play.: lastMPServer="142.111.2.174:2302";lastMPServerName="DayZ Roleplay - Rhinocrunch.com";

^and if that isn't enough gun Use more gun.

I have an AK74 magazine and an AK101 magazine. Will trade for an MP5-usable optic (no BUIS). Must go through BRTC trader to ensure safety

I really would enjoy the VSS as a gun in this game. Although it is a bit out of place, being a SpecOps-only weapon, it would be a great "proving ground" for various spawning mechanics in the game. For example, the VSS was shipped by default with a PSO-1 telescopic sight, but could also use a special night-vision sight (the 1PN51, as it is called), as well as feed from 10 or 20rnd magazines. Given that the gun not only can but SHOULD spawn with attachments, it would be a good way to test spawning pre-attached goodies to a gun, and in different conditions. Also, I remember reading somewhere that the VSS, although it COULD fire in fully automatic at around 600rpm, was never designed to (added as an emergency feature). The weapon's internal systems (striker system, internal baffles of suppressor, even the frame of the gun) were really beat beat up when fired this way, drastically reducing accuracy or causing malfunctions after extreme misuse this way. It would be interesting to see two different systems of degradation based on usage (say, the gun could fire 1000 rounds automatic before ruined, but 3000 if only fired semiautomatic)

I believe they do, but they will be American heli crashes only, similar to M4 attachments. Don't quote me on that though.

So I've made it a rule now that you must have the [AIR] tag on your character when you come. This will help with attendance and will also help discourage players from bombing us. The capacity of the server I've picked is only 30 people, so hopefully we should be able to crowd out a fair number of people from trying to bomb us. On the other hand, I've found a sporter and two trumpets, so I have a few spares for those who come. If you happen to find a truck like I did, please help other people get to the stadium because it IS sorta far away.

Will do. I'll keep the server-IDing tip for the future, but in this case it will still be the same because I have spent a lot of time gathering guns, rain jackets, and more. I edited the main post and my side post to hide the server for now but if you already have it, good for you. *edit* I'll probably post the server name a few hours to a day before the tourney so people can gather their own gear (I can't provide THAT many because I think the server is non-persistent, therefore I can only store one character's worth of gear).

If you guys prefer not to do private hives in the future, we can arrange that. However, I chose to do private hive matches to address concerns of losing top-tier gear in order to collect gear to play this game. If you prefer otherwise, please mention so.

*snip*

Agreed. I was surprised when I found out the derringer wasn't in .22lr, because it looked so small from model size. Some sort of civilian counterpart to the Amphibia would be fantastic, like the Browning BuckMark or the Ruger Mk.II (which the Amphibia was built off of, mind you. Magazines could be compatible making work super easy for BI devs)

Yeah this will be on a private hive, I have yet to determine which one. If you want to go ahead and pick one, I won't get started with lootfarming until thursday because that is when I am free. Preferably find some multi-server private hive to aid in lootfarming for the event, because without a V3S it might take a while to find everything in one day.
