    Mac for dayz

    :huh: I am sure if you bothered to do any research, you would have discovered this. On a positive note, all is not lost on you. Bootcamp

    DayZ Standalone Singleplayer

    I started with daizy on my old imac, as I had no internet back then. I drooled for dayz and had no idea what I was getting myself into. Without this, I doubt I would have taken the steps into the world of pc. It even nudged me to tailor my experience and learn some modding too. It was an absolute brilliant start to my fascination with Bohemia titles. Odin Lowe made some very good points. When I first started in daizy, the gunshots that flew over my head made no difference to the ones I receive today in dayz standalone. To some, the experience may seem hollow, but rest assured there is a bigger picture in all this. Anyway, we don't have single player yet. Lets see how it pans out before we pull out the pitchforks. For giggles. A 2010 imac and daizy ran at steady 60+fps the whole time, without needing to tweak extra files or anything silly like downgrading to nes graphics.

    I run slow, is it lag, or something else?

    Hi guys, I sent emu a pm, as I had a few thoughts of my own, as I recently encountered this very thing, when introducing a friend to pc & bohemia titles. We tested in Dayz & Arma 3, and the issue was always the same. Slow movement. It actually stems from getting an average of 8-10 fps. When you start to run in the single digits as an average, it impacts the users movements ie; moving slower than everyone else. Unfortunately for those that cannot tweak their settings further to average a rate of 15-20 fps, will have to wait for further optimisations from the engine. ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Emu - to your question about fast forward. Fast Forward bind allows you to sprint with one key pressed down without needing to hold W as well. ie; I bind my Fast Forward to my mouse button side, and I only have to click this to sprint

    Oh the things you see.

    OP, you are bored, and wondering what else there is to do? You enjoy pvp, but can't be bothered to gun up, but rather suicide to get closer. You really gotta work for what you want, if you want it bad enough! Do you really want to try other things in this game? It sounds like you don't, especially if you prefer ruining others playtime. Without the need to ask in this topic, you know this is a sandbox game, and the possibilities end with your imagination. You choose what you want to do. But if you are really wondering on what else to do... I could suggest a lovely hike up into the northern regions of Chernarus and get some fresh air. Go for a little sight seeing, appreciate the scenery, take it all in. There are some memorable spots in game, and makes it even more worth it when you discover it by yourself without some online aid. Learn to read your surroundings, without a map, find out how to navigate properly. It's quite a change from the coastal wars and is quiet relaxing. Not every ones cuppa though Have a fancy for some fresh game? Put aside your morning to go do some hunting and stalking. Sit and study their movement, watch how they react to the environment, and your movement. Be patient, learn to be invisible & how to approach game without the need to resorting to firearms. This is a challenge in itself. Fancy some role playing? Eh, probably not but you can find yourself engaging some wonderful & wacky scenarios and the people you find, may just take your mind away from your gun long enough to have a laugh. If you don't like the sounds of any of this, how about. Infiltrate a whole city, clear it out, hold it down & setup some ambush points with some inescapable traps. Have your way with them if you must. Scare & torture them. Just make sure they remember you. Give them an experience, a story to walk away from. At least make it interesting, for both parties. Now is the time to have fun & experiment with, not get stuck in a rut and play the same way in & out every day. If you don't have fun one way, try another.

    Massivly unplayable

    Only If you happen to be staying on the coast, you will struggle. food is scarce, as it has all been picked and this will only get worse with the re introduction of our beloved central loot economy. If you know where, and have the right tools. Hunting then becomes possible on the coast as well, another option if you must hang around there. Try scavenging some fresh fruit from some apple orchids or some berry bushes. It doesn't take much to get enough into you to venture away from the hell we call the coast. Plan your route, and do not sprint around everywhere aimlessly looking for loot. Time is precious and needs to be spent wisely at the start of your life, if you wish to hold onto it. By all means, come back to the coast once you gear up and get healthy to do as you wish. Just know, living on the coast is always a short lived one regardless of your status. Now if by any chance you are inland and still struggling, and indeed have 400 hours in game not just on the coast death matching. You should know, there are plenty of animals around to hunt and setup a little retreat to cook up a huge feast. You should have a good indication of where to hit up with the knowledge gained off that many hours. As I said above, running around erratically looting is no good whilst your in this stage. it needs to be planned or a rough idea of where to set out too. Also If you dislike the post processing, like many do. Just simply disable it. This will get rid of your blurry screen, and colour loss that happens after taking damage or blood loss. It will make life easier if you find it unplayable. The game is not getting more unplayable due to food getting harder, rather the opposite. You need to adapt your thinking and game plan as we move further along in development. I can tell you, a lot of people's play style will be hampered and a bad time will arise, if you do not start adapting with the game now.

    Lunch Parameters

    Hi Gammbet As others have explained already. There is no need for launch parameters anymore. It causes more harm than good these days. https://twitter.com/eugenharton/status/570650864047824896?s=09 https://twitter.com/eugenharton/status/570649299626954753 https://twitter.com/eugenharton/status/570697299799764992

    DayZ Standalone epic Short film pt.1

    Hi Mave SmashT beat you to your own video :D http://forums.dayzgame.com/index.php?/topic/224389-the-story-of-damien-mcklain/ You have done an outstanding job from the camera placement and editing. The sounds are stellar too. I am quite excited to see more content from you. Keep up the good work. :thumbsup:

    Next DayZ Sale?

    Dayz was never 75% off. It went up to $35 when the sale started and came down to the old $30 pricing. Best bet would be to put on their wishlist and get notified when it comes down on sale.

    Possible to setup controls like BF4?

    As others have stated here, it is all to do with ensuring all key binds for that particular key are unbound first and ensuring the correct binds are in place. It is mostly always down to user error and just presuming the game is broken with it's mechanics due to Alpha. I have seen many times, things that are clearly not broken & players that cannot or will not work it out, but rather just jump on "its broken" wagon, adamant it is not ones own error. The Arma series has been going for so long now there is a plethora of information out there which can be cross referenced for all BIS titles including Dayz SA. Google is your friend here! I have just jumped in game and tested on your behalf WIKDMoNKY. After unbinding all keys issued to the r-mouse (secondary mouse), I have had no issue assigning hold r-mouse to run forward. FYI settings in menu needed changing Options/Controls/Assignments Infantry weapons - optics & hold breath (unbind secondary mouse button) Interact - Back (unbind from secondary mouse button) Commanding - reveal target (unbind from secondary mouse button) That is 4 binds just on your r-mouse. By the sounds, you have not unbound all controls before enabling walk/run forward to r-mouse. You cannot just assign a secondary mouse click to run either, you need to assign hold secondary mouse button to ensure it works correctly. When binding, do not just click your r-button but rather hold it for a second or two. This also works for all BIS titles I have tested so far (A2/A3/TKOH/TOM). As St Jimmy also pointed out, make sure you do not have read only in your cfg's. This will not save your new binds if read-only. This should help out your problems :)

    Lets post some screen shots (Standalone)

    Thanks for clarification guys :) I completely agree with this. Majority of screen shots are taken too far to the extreme and lose there authentic dayz feel. I think being subtle is key here and less is actually more.

    Lets post some screen shots (Standalone)

    Hi schwaBam Tatanko usually doesn't use post processing, as stated a few posts above on top one of his pics :) Just raw in game shots, with no editing! By the sounds, Tatanko may soon be editing, if so I cannot wait to see what's in store :D By the looks of ChrisHD's screenies and taking a guess. He uses the in game post processing. I am unsure if it was edited further besides the nametag though

    Meat. what does it say when its get cooked.

    That mentality :o As for your please explain... Adding buddy on the end of something does not make it appear any more nicer, when a snide comment is made. If anything it is the complete opposite. A friendly point in the right direction is all that is needed, after all we are all new at some point in time. Snide comments really are not needed here. It always causes threads to derail and the valuable information harder to source. Its good you helped, but try being more courteous, it goes a long way for discussion. GaryWalnuts - no question should be ridiculed regardless of how silly it sounds to you or the next person. The only silly question is the one not getting asked. We all have lapses from time to time :D Also, where would be the fun, if I knew everything about this game? Some people enjoy getting lost and working things out for themselves and not reading every tid bit of info available. I would not have had half the fun if I did not discover things for myself tbh. I know OP was here asking for help, but it sounds like he is finding things on his own and got a little bit stuck and seeking help on the forums on this subject. A search probably would have sufficed but he is a new member, there not to all know. Besides dayz does not get any better when your thrust into the unknown and everything is unfamiliar. This is dayz at its finest. Pilgrim, I am jumping on later. I will make an effort to come up with an answer for you although I have struggled finding fryers in a long time :) I will keep you updated via a pm!
