You need a copy of Windows 7/Windows 8 Everything you will need to know is on the Apple website: http://www.apple.com/uk/support/bootcamp/

Honestly? If you are desperate to run it you can try it through BootCamp, that's the only you will be able to play it on that machine. You will have to fiddle about with the settings a bit but on a good day it will only run at ~30FPS, it's just not made for gaming at all and DayZ is VERY resource intensive.

Yeah, it's the graphics mainly. The way Parallels works is you are running a full version of Windows within OSX so the 2 operating systems will put strain on the machine as it is, that's without DayZ playing at all. The 650M isn't the greatest gaming card as it is but you won't really be playing it at all through Parallels.

'The newest Mac' ? Whar sort of Mac? iMac 27", MacBook Pro with Retina Display, cMBP? I can tell you it's probably a combination of low-end graphics as well as running an emulated version of Windows on top of OSX isn't really very good for framerates.

BEST NWAF Sniping spot (MY Fav)
rossums replied to COMMANDERPIXELonYT's topic in New Player Discussion
It's like 'What came first, the chicken or the egg?' but more shooting people in the face with high-powered pixelated rifles. Therefore automatically more awesome. -
BEST NWAF Sniping spot (MY Fav)
rossums replied to COMMANDERPIXELonYT's topic in New Player Discussion
Any spot that is the 'best spot' by default isn't the best spot because everyone knows it's the best spot and this causes increased traffic to the spot which would mean that it in fact would not be the best spot. My head hurts. -
dayz FPS increase No downloads!
rossums replied to callsignBravo (DayZ)'s topic in New Player Discussion
I think you should make the ish part bold, I wanted entertainment but instead I received confusion. __ Either way, you just have to tweak it a bit, DayZ is a bit finicky for some reason, not every preset settings list works for everyone - just have to trial and error a lot of it to get the best graphics/performance balance. -
Bah, disappointed. I wanted to see you get violated in some unimaginable way from a mile of while Aitchy stands around powerless to save you. Good video though :)
-
Before I watch it I'm going to guess you get no kills and get taken out from 700m with a Makarov.
-
Because people are cunts. Me especially.
-
Put them both to the same resolution and give it a try. A lot of the time it doesn't like being set to different resolutions as it sometimes stretches it out and textures get messed up.
-
Interface Resolution and 3D Resolution
-
Is your HUD set to the same resolution as your screen in the settings?
-
I'm assuming it's because you have your settings on a lower detail, I don't have any of the expansions but my compass is perfectly readable.
-
If you use DayZ Commander or Play With Six launcher you can just set it to hide unofficial servers so it shows official servers only.

I would love to see specific graphics settings locked
rossums replied to UVF Reece's topic in DayZ Mod Suggestions
I just accepted that as a given. Anything that will negatively impact a player MUST equally impact every other player, quality can differ but it must at least give roughly the same effect throughout. If various things that negatively impact you are removed on a lower difficulty people will most certainly lower their quality just to exploit the difference. -
Wow, a thread that isn't full of crap from you - that's a first. Try load an Arma II/Arma II OA game, it will properly initialise and update BattlEye, I had the same problem while I was accessing it from uni network.

Draw distance should be forced,(which it will be for SA) Gamma should be forced (Players can customise via monitor if they want to properly fix gamma rather than cheat). As far as the rest of the problems go, I have already brought this up myself and there is a simpler method of achieving balance. All of the ground objects (grass, bushes, foliage etc.) should be displayed on ALL machines, the only difference between high/low would be the textures - this allows everyone to make proper use of cover and won't cause any major drop in performance. -
Yes, it's purely coincidence that someone with the same username playing the same mod posted looking for a key because he must have exactly the same problem as you do. Happens all the time.
-
I was at the hairdresser the other day and got exactly that done - I looked to the hairdresser and asked 'Do my stripes look big in this?' and her look said it all. I cabn't have the yellow stripes looking fat, they mean a lot to me and it will just play havoc with my confidence </3

We need to work harder to keep all the ruffians and riff-raff out.
-
Wow! He also uses the same username as you to access hacking website looking for dayz/arma keys! Imagine that. Cunt. Away and peddle your shit somewhere else, peasant.

Standalone clothing system and heroes/bandits?
rossums replied to Firewarrior64's topic in DayZ Mod General Discussion
I quite enjoy the fact that there won't be hero/bandit skins, it makes it a lot more immersive for me. You shouldn't be able to look at someone and instantly tell how likely they are to attack you by what they are wearing. It will be interesting to see what concepts they will come up with though.
