SystemiK

What loot system? As far as I can tell, it's a placeholder...

Nah, I downloaded the 80Mb PNG and printed it on a Roland Versa UV printer at work. It was printed on glossy white vinyl which looks amazing and also makes it so you can use wet erase markers to mark it up all you want but easily erase with a damp cloth. That version of the map added unique annotations and was created by a guy who goes by MaxAnder here on the forums. I cant remember for sure, but as I recall, if you printed out the file at actual size it would be something like 20 x 30 feet!

Yeah, 4' x 5'. It was very useful for keeping track of all of my secret spots and server names (as well as a hell of a lot of other peoples "not so secret" spots) which is why I stood so far back to take the picture.

You were not very specific (there are two maps on the page you linked) but I'm pretty sure this is the map you were looking for. It's also the one I used to print the map in my pic above. http://www.sticed.com/MaxHighresChernarusLootV1.png It clocks in at just over 80Mb.

I'm pretty sure the one on my wall counts as a full copy :D

Are you sure about that? I could have sworn only 29% of the map was being used in the current state, was that 30% in the stable or experimental version? :rolleyes:

Heh....I've got a 4 x 5 foot map that's been hanging in my house for several years now, some of you might even recognize the location :P That map and a set of wet erase markers were invaluable back in the days of tents and multiple hives. It never proved to be particularly useful during game-play, but it sure was nice for keeping track of my tent strings (and bandit camps) across multiple hives.

Two of the experimental branch servers I was in tonight were running 50 slots...

Very nice job! Have you seen the Morgan Freeman impersonator playing DayZ? Both of you are definitely on my watch list...keep em coming!

Sometime between now and release, they will roll out private servers / hives. At that time, you can rent your own server and replace all the weapons with rainbows, paintbrushes and kaleidoscopes. In the meantime, you're gonna need to keep your head down, think fast, and move quickly...

Just some clarification for the OP, The experimental branch (more or less a patch candidate) is released as a separate branch of the game. You can choose to play the new branch (with all of it's associated game changes) or you can choose to play the current version (and you can even play them both). After several days of testing and evaluation, the experimental branch (or a modified version of it) will become the new current version of the alpha.

......you post a ""you know you've been playing too much DayZ when..." thread.

I actually tried to watch this, but the echo chamber was a deal breaker for me. Sorry, I just couldn't take it....

Well he sure as hell isn't mowing the "lawn"...

Ummmm.......I think you may be a bit confused regarding the differences between lawn mowing and tree trimming.
