Annoying bad quality texture in Chernogorsk [NEED HELP TO GET IT FIXED]
JonEllisDee replied to theswedishcathead's topic in General Discussion
It looks like the game it's loading a LOD texture there, I'll have to check it myself in game but I certainly don't remember seeing it like that, it's quite noticeable in your pic so I tend to think that it is a case of corrupt files, but if it is a dev map problem, it is quite pointless to ask several developers about a texture in a map that is a WIP, if it is a map glitch, don't worry they are not blind and don't insist asking them about this silly details, I've got replies at my most of my questions on Twitter, when I don't get it, it means that what I'm asking is irrelevant at the moment or just plain stupid and, tbh, I prefer they wasting their time with more important stuff than a texture not loading properly, which will be eventually fixed. P.S.: next time take a better screenshot. -
I love the idea, the base could be made at Utes when included in Chernarus map.

The good thing about ENB or SweetFX is that there's no good or bad, just different preferences, you can use these tools for gameplay or just to take screenshots and it's always cool to have options to make the game fit your visual tastes. Also, ENB's generic version is really limited, you only can deal with bloom and color correction, my point of asking at this thread is to get ENB's author into making a dedicated version of the mod for DayZ and get much more effects to work.

You mean that it works on full screen for you?
-
I'll post my settings as soon as I get something that doesn't ashame me, follow this topic or add me, my setups are not that impressive but I don't mind sharing. Now let's see if we can get a crazy russian modder to make a dedicated version.

Yeah, you still have to run the game in windowed mode, otherwise it crashes on start up. Also, changing any video setting that requieres refresh will make the game crash, if you want to change any setting you gotta run the game with ENB/SFX desactivated, change the settings, exit the game, rename the files into their proper names again and play. You kind sir, you just made my day glorious. Thanks!

ENBSeries by Boris Vorontsov http://www.enbdev.com/ It's a graphics enhancer, his better known works are with GTA IV and Skyrim, but there's also a generic version that works with many games, including ArmA series These are taken using ENB 0.076 and SweetFX 1.5 on ArmA II

Update Rev. 0.36.115535 (Experimental branch)
JonEllisDee replied to Hicks_206 (DayZ)'s topic in News & Announcements
I'm still having serious performance issues since version 0.34 update. On 0.33 I was gettin solid rock +40 fps with drops at towns, but always giving fps above 30. Since 0.34, I've been experimenting serious lag, my fps count don't go above 15 fps, I get a lot of stuter and it drops to 4-7 on towns. This happens in all server conditions and indepently of graphic settings, launch options or ini configurations, I get exactly the same results. My system specs: Intel i7 2600k @ 3.4Ghz 16 Gb RAM 1666 Mhz 2x GTX580 SLI (Enabled and disabled, forcing ToH/Arma:OA SLI profiles from Nvidia Inspector, same results) 1TB Western Digital Caviar Black HDD Windows 7 Professional Ndivia drivers 334.89 (also tested with previous version, same results) Anyone could give me some input on this? Thanks :) -
Best places to find guns other then military bases?
JonEllisDee replied to Lumeria's topic in New Player Discussion
The best advise I could give is don't focus on finding weapons, make your way to the interior and try to visit as many towns as possible, you need food, water and medicines, focus on that, eventually you'll find weapons on the way. There is military gear spawning at the barns, including shotguns and SKS for example, in bigger towns there are buidings that can spawn weapons, look for firehouses, schools, farms, some of the bigger houses also... it takes time, but you need to learn by yourself where to look. Anyways, a good way of getting some nice gear is making the south-west triangle: Green Mountain, Zelenogorsk and the military base just at the south. There are more chances of finding good loot at this bases than at the airfields. -
You can do this already, just use your mic :P
-
You need to find a Mosin M44 compensator for increased accuracy and lower recoil.

In my humble opinion, changing server to find loot is cheap and pointless in this game, the possibility of finding a town completly empty is one of the strongest points in the survival hardcore gameplay, it pushes you to explore the map in the search of your precious beans, if you find another player it will push you to decide between teaming up in the search or killing him/her to loot their bodies. In short, server hopping = casual gameplay, ruining the experience that this game is aiming to offer. It's up to you how you play, but if you're going to keep on doing what you say, you're going to get bored of he game before release and you'll be still a noob.

It is still listed as 'known-issue'.

Looking great mate! I'm yet to find a white check shirt in good conditions, I like it a lot but all those that I've found were ruined-damaged.
-
I've been testing for an hour and a half and I did notice quite some better performance, gotta check it in big towns, but at countryside and small towns I have around 7-10 fps more than with the previous branch. Also, I have noticed that the barns (red roof ones) are spawning military gear, I've found a pristine combat helmet, a pristine gas mask and a box of rounds for the SKS. Great update devs! Keep up the good work!
