dayzprofile.cfg default settings and what do they do?
shenanigansmc replied to mjf6866's topic in General Discussion
What I think each does. shadowZDistance: Distance shadows are drawn (show up) sceneComplexity: Object detail viewDistance: How far everything is drawn at (how far you can see. If this is set to whatever 1km is, you would only be able to see 1km) preferredObj...tance:How far objects render in (like houses)? -
Force mic chat: skype etc.. thru dayz?
shenanigansmc replied to sai (DayZ)'s topic in General Discussion
How could noise cancelling stop that? It is not just magic that can single out one audio source (your voice) and mute everything else. If your playing music through speakers, chances are they are relatively loud, so your mic would pick it up. So, it would have trouble distinguishing between voice and vocals (and generally everything) coming out your speakers. If it can do this, this would likely need a good PC to run the software or a good server to run the software or a expensive mic to do it. Two of these require expensive hardware on the players part and the other requires a good server plus would prevent all the server power to be directed to important parts of the game. -
Force mic chat: skype etc.. thru dayz?

Although this is a realistic feature, it would be really annoying. I do not want every sound in my room (including music when I sometimes listen to it while playing) being broadcast to any person near me, that I might not even know about. Also, when I am in Skype and other people have all sorts of noises in the background (including over sensitive mic picking up keyboard/clicking/their game sound/shuffling in chair) it drives me insane. I do not want every person around me (and there can be quite a few if I play in a squad) to be broadcasting to me every sound they hear. I don't want to be looting a town and hear things I don't want to know about or hear lie someone going to take a shit or their dog taking a piss on him. Plus, I do not only speak about the game on Skype. All the time playing, running around a field I might talk to people I am in a call with about anything. I do not want any random near me hearing confidential or personal info. No Support -

Server hopping is killing this game FAST
shenanigansmc replied to phoboss's topic in General Discussion
At the moment people server hop because it is impossible to get good loot fast when there is so many others who have passed through said town. This will mostly be stopped when loot respawns. I do this myself to a minor extent. I go on a low player server, get some good stuff then go on a large server. Never will hop from low player server to low player server to avoid players/zombies or farm one military loot spawn ect. -
Start sprinting and mash V to vault out. Works after a while.

Can openers. Drag them over your canned item and click open X with can opener. Where to find them? In civilian houses. They are stupidly rare though.
-
Above, plus a lot of - items like -No vehicles -Less weapons -(Various other items like binoculars that do not work/not implemented) Pretty much everything that was in the mod but not this current Alpha will be implemented.

You could also buy it now, support the devs right now and just play it a bit/not at all until you think it can immerse you enough to satisfy you. I have it now, and love it even at this relatively basic stage. There is enough to get a few hours out of it (I have played 12hrs, still nowhere near bored. I have seen reviews on steam where people have played it for over 50 hours already) (paragraph below edited in right after posted, thought of it right after clicking the post button :P) The thing is, even if you play it to extent you have seen all the GAMES content, there are still player interactions. Satisfy yourself by helping a coastal cutie, kill players (that are the same level equipment wise as you, dont kill the people who genuinely cant fight back to any extent) or laugh at the people being really weird. I saw some group hailing some guy with a payday mask and dancing on youtube.

I love how dark night is, but the issue is
shenanigansmc replied to Frell's topic in General Discussion
(I am pretty sure) It is based off of real time. Long day, long night. Join a server from another country (thus different time) or play at day on a server hosted in your country. -
Fix building glitch or allow easier suicide/respawn
shenanigansmc replied to whatup2003's topic in General Discussion
In some occasions, sprinting and continuously vaulting can get you out of a building. Worked for me both times I was stuck in a building. -
desync or they just logged in. Or, a genuine pop in bug.

You can drink straight from the well things in towns by going up to them, but I do not think you can drink directly from ponds.
