Thank you, sir. This album was pretty "tame," next week's will be a little more interesting :)

This week is another variety pack. I present the Central Railway Station, Grand Campfire Circle, Black Forest, and Commissar Statue: http://imgur.com/a/kKN7o

I played off and on all weekend without issue, but I was also carefully monitoring social media activity regarding those problems and avoided playing until after getting the all-clear from one of several reliable sources (mostly owner/operators of popular servers). It also helped that a lot of it was occurring at times that I would have been asleep or otherwise preoccupied.

I have another big update in the form of v3.5 B) This time around, I've added a section for Camera Perspective and massively expanded the Video Settings section. Get to it!

A cloudy evening just approaching dusk as I passed through south-central Chernarus:

Fair enough. That's a perfectly reasonable request :thumbsup:

I don't agree. I think it's entirely realistic for me to shove a raincoat into my backpack and put it on when it starts raining. That's exactly what I used to do as a boy scout when we were on long hikes. Perhaps make it 99% waterproof and make them harder to find, but it should still be an easy means of allowing me to operate in the rain with drastically minimized negative effects. Besides, adventures like this one wouldn't be possible otherwise: http://imgur.com/a/feGuA. That night was SO MUCH FUN. Protecting yourself in the rain is significantly easier than staying dry during a swim, but I'm sure you know that :P I don't see a need for improvised rain gear unless they make raincoats harder to find. As it is, they take up very little inventory space and can be put on at a moment's notice. As Gary said, each item of clothing has a few given properties including insulation and absorption. Studying those values in the files is exactly what led us to choosing a particular loadout for our swim to Debug Island -- maximizing insulation and completely eliminating absorption.

I should hit up dayzru and see if he'll help me make one. Watching his stream has helped me confirm that I'm pronouncing things correctly :lol:

I think it's about time I correct the wiki page... If you insist, I'll write a guide ;)

I'm not an attention hog, and I think it's nice to have them all in one place :p I appreciate the sentiment, though BH! These series are as much fun for me to shoot as they are to look at, so I enjoy this activity a lot. Thanks for checking it out :)

For week three, we visit a more recent addition... Prison Island: http://imgur.com/a/bpx1e

I think it was getting fired up for the day (this was 8:00am). I sent him that picture right after I took it and asked him if server hoppers took everything :p

It was difficult. Want to know what it really was? A BBQ grill! The funniest part though is that a RL friend of mine that plays DayZ was the one cooking at the grill! :P

I hate to plug myself, but I had a moment on the way to work this summer that was too funny not to share :lol:

Thanks for the explanation. That all makes sense. Hopefully we get a heads-up about which servers it's on :)

Anyone from the team care to elaborate on this? -What does it do? -What will it mean for players? -Why only some servers? Will you tell us which have it enabled? (just curious)

You're pretty good with night shots! :)

Week two we are making stops at the Hill Figure, the Grass Pyramid, and the abandoned village of Kumyrna: http://imgur.com/a/dV0KW

Should be interesting, for sure. I'm hoping they make the Tisy base a very scary location to be :)

Took a few interesting pictures while recovering blood today:

No problem. I know others have already posted these elsewhere, but I got my own screen caps in "source" quality on a 1440p display so I thought what the heck ;)

On the one year anniversary of the guide, I bring you a hugely revamped document with new "Field of View" and "Setting the Scene" sections as well as new pictures and a whole lot more. Enjoy :)

Thanks, Odin! Hoping to do a whole album of creepy nighttime shots there some point B)
