Hello, I've been playing DayZ Alpha on and off for ~2 years now - in that time there have been several server/client optimisations aimed at improving FPS. Have there been any announcements or anything to suggest that 60fps in citys/towns will be achievable in the final product?

Hi all, I'm trying to 'build' the best AK i can by looking for the following stuff: Couple of questions (as of 0.58) : 1. Does the item quality affect the guns accuracy ? (damaged vs worn) 2. Does the item type affect the guns accuracy? e.g. Polymer vs wood? if so where can i find further info about this?

I haven't played since 0.48 so forgive me for the lack of current affairs, Couple of questions: i am aware of the 12hr rest / 4hr loot spawn - i think thats right ? I am struggling to find typical weapons/ammo up the NWAF. i've been there 8 times in the last 3 days on the same server [persistent i believe - DayzTV public] and it has the same clothes, shoes and hat's there but little to nothing else seems to spawn there, why is this? Has loot been drastically reduced? - i've circled the map over the course of 3 days on the same server and it 'feels' like there is a reduction in loot - personally i think its a good thing so everyone isnt fully geared. Also i've ate 100's of apples to stay alive :Da few frriends have said loot doesnt spawn in area's players are and it spawns elsewhere? - can anyone shed any light on this? Thanks.

If the old code is redundant, then it can't be used to create hacks with new code then i assume? Thanks for the quick response.

Hi orlok, Apologies I'm not following... if the source code is released, does this mean that there is further potential that hacks/cheats will increase as a result ? - just an honest non politicians answer would be great, if you will. Thank you.

thanks for the comments guys heh loved every minute... wait second of it ... :D

i cringed watching this.

What type of videos are you after i generally record all my footage fella.

enjoyed that !

My buddy was surrounded by 2 bandits in the ATC. They took him out and naturally i tried to avenge my mate. Hope you enjoy the video as much as i did making it - ha still laughing away now about it :D :D

Congrats on killing hackers but stop using wall glitches. that is all.

My buddy took out a guy at the top of the ATC in NEAF. I ran up as a FS got his gear + another guys magnum. Fully armed with an SKS + ammo (Pristine) i tracked down 2 ppl in the hangar press fire but my gun doesn't shoot!, during the game it goes 'click' 'click' but you can't hear it on the recording. Magnum worked, but the previous owner was only kind enough to leave 2 bullets and therefore ran out of ammo. This has happened a few times. Does this happen to anyone else? must be me hax >:( j/k :thumbsup:

Yes your priorities were all wrong, in the middle of an encounter i wouldn't be concerned with the loot [duped or not duped], but the yellow raincoat guy! Actions speak louder than words. I understand your rational behind making the video, a pre-emptive strike in-case your name is dragged through the mud but you have achieved that already by making this video which proves you looting your own duped body. The facts are: 02:43 - Your mate on team speak says "i can shoot your old body and you can have more ammo" - he obviously knows the score which would indicate that this isn't the first time this has happened. 6 Seconds later you looting it. like i said actions speak louder than words and yours unfortunately speaks volumes which don't go in your favour - i wish there were more yellow raincoat guys out there! :) Edit: the only thing which goes in your favour is your reason for logging out was due to the scope glitch and was legitimate. This sadly resulted in the dupe and unfortunately you tried taking advantage of the accidental dupe situation and provided your guilt, which was the opposite agenda of making this video lol.

HA! great video! Glad that guy took you out. It wasn't your fault that your character was duped, HOWEVER... you should have hidden your body immediately not looted it. Verdict: Guilty.

I wanted to understand the performance pro's / con's of using 1 monitor @Ultra vs Eyefinity @Ultra vs Eyefinity @Custom settings to understand the trade off between visual quality and FPS and used Svet as the control city. i used dxtory to record at 1920 x 1080 and for eyefnity 5760 x 1080 , then clipped to 1920 x 1080 (showing the middle monitor only) and scale to 720p. 1. 1920 x 1080 Ultra @ 26 Fps 2. 5760 x 1080 @ Ultra 22Fps 3. 5760 x 1080 @ Custom (AA off etc..) 23Fps. Conclusion: 1. DayZ is still crap for graphical optimisation which we all knew anyway, but the FPS gain in a town like Svet is not worth me playing across 1 monitor - for 4fps difference i can play @ 5760 x 1080 rather than use 1920 x 1080 on 1 monitor. 2. I repeated the above tests using the CrossfireX Arma2 profile, and the was absolutely no fps gain or loss through this process. i used MSI afterburner to ensure both cards were working.
