theirongiant replied to theirongiant's topic in Mod Servers & Private Hives
Dayz.st are updating to 1.7.6 across their servers, should be updated 'soon'. -
Okay did some tests over the weekend and post-patch tents seem to be working okay. Would changing the created date on pre-patch tents in the db resolve the respawning issue or is there some other info in the db that is differentiating pre and post patch tents?

Cheers for the support. -
Pretty much this, the tool I use gives an audio warning when something dodgy is going on so I start it up and minimise it and play the game normally. I've got a rough idea where peoples bases are but I'm not interested in raiding them, if someone else in the group finds one then that's fair game but it's not happened yet. We've hoarded vehicles (found honestly) but that's pretty self-defeating as it makes your camp blindingly obvious and ours has been raided umpteen times by parties unknown and I've no interest in spending the time to figure out who.

Any idea what can be done to fix the tent issue on private hives. I've pre-patch tents that are respawning their contents every restart. I've a feeling post-patch tents aren't holding onto their contents but I need to test to confirm.

Added Gotcha, TSW and custom replay logging. Added a new teamspeak 3 server for players. New players welcome. -
Not sure i like the idea of procedurally generated maps, one of the great things about dayz is that cos Chernarus is modelled on actual terrain your brain tells you that it's real from a thousand different little visual cues you're only subconsciously aware of. I think you'd lose a lot of that by generating terrain.

Vote for the Standalone to have more vehicles on each map.
theirongiant replied to JamesMoore's topic in DayZ Mod General Discussion
I'm finding that I need to keep an eye on how many vehicles are on the server and how many are parked away in camps or at the edge of the map. I generally try and keep a reasonable amount of vehicles in the main playing area so that new spawns have as much chance of finding one and they're not restricted to hoarders. -
Is there a definitive list of guns in 1.7.5.1 that I can check in future. Cheers in advance

Can anyone recommend a good teamspeak host in the UK

erm, yeah, what it says in the title -
Twig snapping noise shouldn't be random!!
theirongiant replied to cazador's topic in DayZ Mod Suggestions
When the twig snaps, i always, without fail, every single time scan about to check for a player even though i know players don't make twig snapping noises. -
It's not just about camoflage, the scale of visiblity between standing against concrete in a ghillie suit and standing in grass will remain exactly the same, it was more about reducing the artificial highlighting of a distinct character model at distance against a blurred background. In real life, it's massively harder to spot someone at the kind of ranges you easily do in game, adding a little transparency would mimic that real life effect at negligible cpu cost. -- edit -- while i put ghillies in the title I'd add the effect to all characters at distance, naturally a ghillie would provide extra concealment in grass on top of this effect.

Raidng clan-bases may have it's consequences.
theirongiant replied to jeppeake's topic in DayZ Mod Gallery
That kind of cuts both ways. -
Adding more ram and running the game from a ramdrive gave me and extra 20fps.

I was running up to a deer stand north of Stary when I heard a human groan. I thought there must have been someone up there so sneaked about a bit and kept hearing the same sound of someone wincing in pain, not your standard zombie noises. Couldn't see anyone around and thought for a moment that it might be the result of me catching an infection but when I ran away from the deer stand I stopped hearing it. Any idea what it might have been?

Only managed to get an hour or two in so far mostly flying or driving about so haven't clocked what the changes in the loot spawning are. Anyone care to point out any differences they've noticed.

Who Else Thinks 1.7.5.1 Pushes Annoyance and Survival Too Far?
theirongiant replied to Diz (DayZ)'s topic in DayZ Mod General Discussion
Stealth more, shoot less, you're meant to avoid zombie aggro not go toe to toe with them. -
Had a wee shot this morning, primarily to test out running dayz from a ramdisk(thoroughly recommended btw) and I noticed that tents now have a sleep option. Not sure what the results of sleeping are but is this a new thing or have I just never noticed it before?

Who Else Thinks 1.7.5.1 Pushes Annoyance and Survival Too Far?
theirongiant replied to Diz (DayZ)'s topic in DayZ Mod General Discussion
Just on this point, in any zombie movie I've seen, shooting it out is always the option of last resort and never, ever goes well. -
cool, thought i'd ask as I hadn't seen it mentioned.

How many hours have you played 1.7.5.1 for? -
A message to the people who are mad about the patch
theirongiant replied to Xianyu's topic in DayZ Mod General Discussion
I'm slightly amused by the people rushing to judgement based on, at most, a couple of hours play. Come back in a week or two when you've actually had a chance to play it. -
1.7.5.1 What's up with the low ammo drops
theirongiant replied to lorneagle's topic in DayZ Mod General Discussion
The ammo models seem to have been changed as well. Lee Enfield ammo seems to be in small wide clips.
