    Thanks for the crit, although taking up your idea would be pretty difficult seeing as there only me and my friend in this video, getting multiple people to chase me would be very difficult unless they found exact clothing which would take a lot of hopping from server to server lol.

     

    Can be done in the editing stage with just 1 person.

    It's your AMD 7770 Gfx cards mate  - to be fair they offer poor performance  - even in crossfire mode a single AMD R9 270 (£120) outperforms 2 x 7770's in crossfire. Combined with the fact dayz cannot utilise crossfirex at the moment and in your case your running dayz on a a single 7770 which simply isn't going to cut it. - enabling the arma2 profile doesn't add any performance gains for crossfire.

     

    invest in a new gfx card or lower your resolution / textures.

     

    While Dayz doesn't utilize dual gfx cards, a single 7770 should still give him more than 7 frames per second. My old 4850 gave me 25 frames in woods and 15-20 in towns. That things was like 6 years old...

     

    Most likely a power saving options turned on the CPU. What temp is your CPU running at? A common effect of overheating CPU's is terrible performance.

    No...I did it to myself. You will respawn as a freshie if you kill that other version of yourself. If it happens, I suggest watching / guarding it until it disappears to be safe.

     

    I can second this. Don't kill yourself, will save you a possibly long run back...

    Kill someone. Put it on their body, hide body.

    We don't need these items rotating hands.

    Also. If anyone is interested in the math.

    SKS 7.62x39 Rounds stack in 20's.

    Max Ammo Box will hold 10 stacks. = 200 Rounds per Ammo Box.

    Max Ammo Box you can hold on End Game Gear = 10 Ammo Box's

    10 x 200 = 2,000 Rounds per Person.

    I win. :D

    Unless they use yellow protector cases and vests...

    SLI was the first thing I checked. I always enable it in Nvidia Control Panel. Also, since it's a 120Hz monitor there should be no screen tearing so I'm a bit confused as to why this is happening.

    Enforcer, yeah I get that it is a huge world and the view distance is quite far. Still though, if DayZ supports SLI, should t this be a non issue with *2* 4Gb 760s?

    I know it's still in alpha so I'm guessing they have not tweaked the engine enough to take full advantage of 2 cards and a 4.5 processor.

     

    This game will never run decent frames compared to others. All arma games suffer from the same problem and still have terrible frames in comparison to AAA titles. Don't let all the fanboys try and give you reasons, it's engine based problems. Expect similar performance, perhaps worst as they add more and more stuff. But the game is fun as hell and worth the FPS problem imo. I hope they figure it out someday, but it hasn't happen yet.

    Im having problems with the pistol red dot site. I put a good battery in and the site itself is in pristine condition. I can turn the site on and off when it is detached from the pistol and resting in my backpack but once I drag it onto my pistol it auto shuts itself off and trying to turn it on while its on the pistol fails to work as well. I will follow the above suggestions and hope for a fix and report back.

     

    Having the exact same issue. When it's attached to gun it won't turn on. Have verified working batteries with the pistol flashlight.

    I believe he just misread that, it's kind-off a dubious statement :p

     

    has anyone tested this with ramdisk? I have a ssd but I also have a lot of ram so I'm curious about this. even a few fps could make a difference in those lagtowns.

    I have ran it through RAM disk. Worked well but only really smoothed out the stutters. No real increase in FPS. And RAM is much faster than a SSD. So I can't image getting a SSD being worth the money for this game. Save it for a CPU.

    i just want audio playing in the game, like it was on the mod. A little scary music adds a lot. Thats one big thing i miss

     

    Miss the old music as well. Actually the sounds in general were more spooky at that time. I can see them not adding background music because of realism, but ambient sounds needs improved to make up for it.
