(For (more rude words) sake. Can you get a life? Are you some kind of markup trainspotter? ) Becausetakinglikethisisstupidandhardtoreadinahurry.(insertrudewordhere)isyourproblemwiththewayiwrite??? AND your question: It's completly off topic. Heck. Back on topic! Q: Why the heck does a bicycle need fuel tank parts to fix it??? !!!!!BICYCLE Technicals!!!!!! coaxial mount on the handle bars!!! paint ball gun!!! Dayz origins paintball? I like space. Which is why I love rambling through the trees. or along the coast, or sitting on roof tops, and my trusty bicycle gets me there in almost silent style. Love it. Still need a bike lock though. So yeah I guess if you make a bike lock someone is inevitably going to want boltcutters.... Sigh....

wow. Cool. Great responses! More. And PANNIERS!!!!

hmmm...

You are obviously not a bike person. Bike people have three things, bikes, gear and enthusiasm, and lock and lights and helmets and hiviz vests. that's not so complicated is it? Medics on bikes dispensing band aids... Woo! Amway.

Can we stick to the Tall nasty plants hunting you down to camp on your decaying corpse. That can talk to each other by their knocking stick and seem to be able to find week points in defences. heh heh. Check spawning blind is a bit of a dud. Especially on an empty server. no one is going to go for that. eeek!

If you were behind a ridge or significant sized bldg. you could possibly survive a near miss. and stumble out into, no trees, most bldg'ings gone and very few of anything else.... a million to one but still they come... Uh oh, there is another mod!!!! Mr Well's meet the DayZ gamers who are yet to read your book.... Why am I getting soooo many ideas from meteor's??? Meteor shower = The day of the triffids Meteor shower = The war of the worlds. Amway I must cut back on the coffee's.

It was zappingzombies who put me onto this idea from his meteor shower thread. Hey zappingzombies: I owe you some beans! Amway.

Can we stick to the triffids thread please!!! Start your own if you want to go off topic! Sh** next it will be "the dayz of our lives".... or "one of these dayz I'm going to (chop, ooops) cut you into little pieces" . (you run around hitting hippie zombies with your fender stratocaster... ) TRIFFFIDS!!!!! They shamble slowly. Have a main weapon the stinger with poison. Reach of ooooh 5 meters. cycles about 25rpm. non directly leathal. lose health but takes time to die. If you get many hits you could die. They can swarm and surround you. They feed off of decaying corpse. (this makes them vulnerable) The shoty is the gun to kill them with. close up and in the tuber... boom. it's down. BUT you can get struck by the stinger. They have a front and back. so you can bushwhack it. Secondary weapon is squashing you against something. so a pack of them can maul you if you get swarmed. Sea water DOES NOT work against them!!! More soon!!! Amway

hmmm. OK well I was not expecting to have to think about this so soon but since you asked so promptly. The game is up on the meteor shower. So no one is going to look at it. Why would you? However there is the helping blind people angle. so if you help a blind person you get humanity points. (?) You could spawn blind, But not deaf, maybe you have abilities that are useful to humanity??? OK so yeah, good point. How do you deal with that? No one in game gets to see the meteor shower. that is a bit lame. But the same with an atomic flash. So lets start the action POST meteor shower. (grumble grumble). Yeah/na? Amway.

Meteor shower!!! Everyone who watches it goes blind, then the carnivorous plants we are milking for oil break free and start carnivorating. ensuing struggle for resources. (sound familiar?) Presenter: Yes, yes, it is indeed. You're on your way to the lounge suite, Mr Wyndom . Question number two. The struggle of class against class is a what struggle? A what struggle? there is your new Dayz mod right there. and the latest incarnation of the D ot the T. Which was on the tube a recent while back sucked. big time. Sorry if you liked it. Hmm. The D of the T has a large cultural resonance in NZ and if you have read any Mulgan (man alone). it's all starting to look like the NZ condition is permeating the interweb like a light winter breeze on the Tararuas... (more like a cloud of pins). The SMLE is a very distinct nod in that direction, please welcome Mr Crump to the stage. A representative of deer culler's around the back country. Amway.

Moving to trouble shooting. See ya... Amway.

Hmm (thinking) Orlok : Hi, I am not sure I understand what you mean by "interesting posting style"? Could you explain your comment? Novogeek: Thanks for the FAIL. (I have learned a few things about arma2 and Dayz that I could NOT learned by using a 3rd party program to manage my wares. since when is learning a FAIL? grow up) To any one who may bother to read this thread: I would really like to understand how the mod folder structure works. Where things are supposed to live and what they do. I don't want some turkey telling me I need xyz ap to manage my game. Seriously, I am quite happy struggling with something till I get to understand it. and so far the game for me is getting the game to work ;) Kind regards to you all, out there shivering in the miserable cold light of dayz. Robert "amway" F Ps. My posting style? My posting style??? ha ha ha ha.....

Robert "manual" F 13.03.2013 New Zealand. This is a tirade about the trials of "manual install", retail version of Arma2 and Dayz mod: Bought the Arma2 CO dvd box for $40 NZD. down load the arma2 updates. 1.59 to 1.60 to 1.62 http://www.arma2.com/index.php?Itemid=20&option=com_rokdownloads&view=folder〈=en Arma2 beta patch.... ARMA2_OA_Build_102936 9the latest to date) http://www.arma2.com/beta-patch.php DAYZ mod files. ( which ones? and then what do I do with them?) http://uk1.dayz.nu/latest/1.7.6/ And after ALL that I get refused entry to servers all over. Oh I did get in as a F****** SEAGULL. I did a LOT of flapping. My friend, is insisting I get SIX, (("it just works, man") he doesn't even know what an arma2 update is. has no idea what version of OA he is using and has no idea what dayz mod version he has installed.) But he can play dayz and I am f****** seagull, man. I want to Manually update my software and I want to be able to join a server. (too hard??) and have found out the hard way that having the latest of ALL the updates is NOT a GOOD thing. (server is running a lower Arma2 OA update AND/OR lower beta patch... ) This is just retarded. Let me guess: "get six or commander..." Amway.

Nooooo!!!!! (that's actually yeeeeessss!!!) I worked it out! whoop! Start: Remove the beta folder from: C:\Program Files\Bohemia Interactive\ArmA 2\Expansion\beta (this was 1002936 (notice it's called "beta" not "beta_1002936")) Put it in a folder called "beta_1002936" some where you can find it again. NEXT: Find a server, look at the beta it has installed, get that beta. http://www.arma2.com/beta-patch.php NEXT: Unpack it into a folder called "beta_XXXXX" replace xxx with the beta version number. NEXT: copy that beta into C:\Program Files\Bohemia Interactive\ArmA 2\ (this where the beta folder will live) so it should end up like this: C:\Program Files\Bohemia Interactive\ArmA 2\beta (see there it is) (The NEW beta folder has whatever beta you downloaded, in it. Notice you can find out the beta version by looking at the folder? open this file in that folder: changelog.txt funnily enough it tells you what beta version is in that folder.) NEXT: Log into the server you wanted to log into. (in my case I wanted to get into to a sever with beta 100296) I changed from: Arma2 ver 1.62 +++BETA 1002936+++ Dayz origins to: Arma2 ver 1.62 +++BETA 100296+++ Dayz origins. Ran into a town, shot a zombie, go rained on, died of hypothermia PLUS another zombie attacking me. so there you go, I helped myself. F**** it. If you really try you can get quite good results. Must be a Kiwi... OK I am Scottish Kiwi. Haha... Robert "Amway" F
