My thoughts regarding tents: The hotfix intended to fix tent/vehicle saving. The issue was that the tents wouldn't actually save anything or the inventorys would never reflect changes after a restart. For example, if a player would ADD things to a tent and save it, the new items would dissappear after a restart. What you're talking about is an issue with the game's design, not the mod's. This is not preventable (from what I know, please correct me if I'm totally wrong here). Now that everything is working properly (at least how the game is designed) items are saved to the server's harddrive and they actually remain there even after restart. Now if you take everything out but do not save it, as far as the server knows, nothing has changed. The data on the harddrive is not overwritten unless a player manually saves it. Of course the items will reappear after restart. A possible solution: handle tent inventories like how player inventories are handled. Save them periodically, maybe not every few minutes, but at least regularly so the server knows that items have been taken out and not saved. This is probably a fault with the game, and not the mod, like mentioned before. Hope that helps.

Yes

Standalone isn't going to be a finished product. Regular updates. Exactly why minecraft isn't on steam.

Standalone development is parallel to the mod's development. All of the features are being implemented in the standalone too.

Am i the only one who is struggling to download the patch? My internet speeds are fine but ETA of download torrent = 3hrs, same for manual .rar download.

I'm using uTorrent and my downloads speeds are respectable. However this is taking a very long time to complete, ETA 3hrs. Why is this? Is there huge load on the server or just not enough seeds?

Not sure if somebody has already replied to this but here is my speculation: As with minecraft, it will not be on steam. Why? Because the regular update path the game will follow doesn't fit steam's way of doing things.

Apparently if you press: ctrl and numpad +, then type "flush", it should fix it. Would be helpful if someone could confirm.

Recently, every time I respawn near elektro I cannot find any loot in the town. Also, all the zombies are stood still and don't move. It's frustrating because if you spawn near elektro you're basically stuffed, no food or weapons or ANYTHING. I hope this can be addressed soon.

How do you explain that EVERY building has absolutely no loot. Not even tin cans. Yeah right someone's taken it all.

Hi, I'm trying to make my own batch file to run DayZ. I can play it normally, but I'm doing this to experiment. Here is my code: @ECHO OFF ECHO Launching DayZ SET CUSTOM_PATH=C:\Program Files (x86)\Steam\steamapps\common\arma 2 operation arrowhead START "" "%CUSTOM_PATH%\Expansion\beta\ARMA2OA.exe" -world=chernarus -nosplash -mod=@dayz pause>nul However when I run this I get two error messages: No entry '.profilePathDefault'. Shaders not valid (mismatch of exe and data?) I'm sure this is something to do with the path I have used or the startup parameter for dayz. If someone has had experience with this and could advise me on what to do next it would be greatly appreciated. Thanks.

Thanks I'll look into the first link. By the way, the second link is a script made by Worrom I believe. I think that guy (atojar) is taking credit for someone elses work. Though, I may be wrong as I didn't read the full post and replies.

I can already run the game fine, I was just interested in trying to make a batch file to run it :)

Hey, can you provide a link to where it has already been suggested?

Me and a friend (Anonymoose in game) were banned from RU 18 just now. We were running north to the airfield until we saw a jeep. We opened fire and managed to kill the two people inside it. However we were both swiftly kicked from the game. I managed to re-enter the server and loot the bodies while my friend was repeatedly kicked. I entered the jeep and drove away, but then I came underfire and was then kicked. We tried to join again but were refused entry. It said we were banned by BattleEye for hacking. This is crazy. We have not hacked. Or done anything malicious. Unfortunately I do not have video/photo evidence to back us up. However, I'm sure that if you check the server logs you will see that we have done nothing wrong. This type of admin abuse is unacceptable. I can remember one of the names of the players we killed: Alnes. I am able to join other servers since but still not RU 18. Thank you and I would appreciate a quick response.

Works flawlessly with patch 94876

Kk thanks. I'm not too worried about it because I know we have done nothing wrong and we can still play on other servers. It's just annoying that people can get away with this behaviour.

I haven't scripted at all ever - this is totally unfair. It is only a server ban and not global too. What can I do to prove my innocence?

Gassy didn't accept any of their items. The hackers were fans that were trying to help the streamers, despite the streamers' wishes for them to leave them alone. This is well documented on the stream.

I'm looking for the image they based the map on, without the legend/icons etc. the raw file is what I need

Is there a version with no legends etc?

It's the people that act like dicks I have a problem with. Someone made a thread describing their difficulties as a brand new player in 1.7.1. Someone replied with: "Sounds like a personal problem." Are you kidding me? Since the patch there is virtually NO FOOD OR WATER (I know this is getting fixed) but comon, it's not a personal problem. Also people who made a sarcastic comment and end with ellipsis piss me off so much. /rant

It's unplayable at the moment. I can never find food and always die. This has happened several times today and it's frustrating. It's also very difficult to find the necessary items to effectively hunt/cook meat and water bottles are rare too. Is this going to be addressed? Edit: straight after I made this thread rocket tweeted about a patch lol
