Cobs

Not a bad bit of advice, I recently convinced my roommate to sell his 2009 Macbook Pro for $500 (he was using bootcamp to play games such as dayz as well). He then bought a desktop gaming PC for $600 with an intel i7 3770k, water cooling, nvidia 660, 8GB Ram, 128GB SSD (windows 8.1) and 1 TB 7200 rpm. He got a good deal on craigslist and now has the power to play games and do some high end 3d rendering. So $100 out of pocket gave him a HUGE upgrade in computing power, if you're willing to part with the mobility and the apple brand image.

My favorite part is my realization that we left a gun outside by the ladder. "Oh shit there's a gun outside!" Right after I said that he comes in blazing hahaha just perfect. Rest in piece Dr. Jon.

I am experiencing the same issue.

You can try some tweaking to improve fps, but sadly it is poorly optimized. Tweaks here

Some footage by my friend JackThunder that is worth a watch!

I agree the motion blur needs to be turned down a bit or off, but I am all for other post processing effects. They make the sky look so much more realistic and give the game a bit of haziness and immersion. I would have them on all the time in the mod if it didn't give me blurry tunnel vision when I moved. Standing still, it looks beautiful.

Thanks!

smh.

With 8GB of ram you can load like 4GB worth of pbo files straight from your ram with ramdisk. That will speed some stuff up until you get around to getting an SSD. If you are even a moderate gamer I would recommend an SSD.

When I am unable to scroll anything, hit g to open your gear, then close it. After that you should be able to scroll again right away. Works for me anyways. No idea why this happens.

For those who want to take the ramdisk a step further, you can use Windows Shell Extension and load important arma 2 and arma 2 operation arrowhead pbo files straight from your ram. I use the whole 4GB worth (free version of ramdisk) of various PBO files from both. Boosts loading time and fps of DayZ since DayZ utilizes some of these pbo files too.

Me and all my DayZ crew had this exact same problem. We just closed everything and kept clicking it until it finally wanted to download. No idea why it happened.

You and many people are having trouble running DayZ with an FX processor. Looks like the BullDozer is an Eight Core AMD FX Series. The game really doesn't seem to like them. Here is a quote taken off a discussion about it that I've relayed over to a few fellow DayZ players: I hope this helps, also I hear the new DayZ update will boost performance. The update is scheduled to come out today if all goes well.
