HeyTikO (DayZ)

Do people read those notes or what? lol ;)

Don't know for the other ones, but i have a GTX 590. At first i had the "hotfix" for artifacts for one hour. Then i disabled it and tested all differents graphics settings. No artifacts at all in Berezino/Tcherno/Balota in any setting... Didn't have to flush too! I don't think all the testers had high end graphics cards but none of us had artifacts with dead soldiers or Barbed wires... Maybe some server-side glitches with old barbed wires?

After playing some Lingor Island too, i can say that i missed the side-chat! I missed the time when we could help people via the side-chat lol. I think we need a server-side option or client side option for a global-text-only-chat. So if a guy doesn't like it, he just goes to another server or turn the global-chat option off. And for the voice/audio, keep it for the direct communication! Cause, having some guys talking about his grandma stuffs on the global chat is just lame!

Weird... We tested the hotfix for 2-3 hours on the dev's server earlier, and no one has got artifacts at all! :/

As of today, it only causes graphical glitches and doesn't stop zombies at all... So it's pretty useless! (Unless you're that kind of d*ck who puts them in every goddam building entrance of the map). Well YES remove it from now! And put more sandbags if people really need something that make their camp looks "professional" lol :)

I was wondering why my server has an "Unknown" status all day, guess i have my answer now :) Off-topic: Is anybody at Vilayer or an other user, familiar with the Ace mod? I don't know why but i can't seem to launch the mod on my A2 Combined Operation server with the ACP... While i can launch other mods without worries! So if someone can help me with that :D

Oh my... v_v I looked in half the page of the server sub-forum... And i didn't see the sticky at all... My apologies, you can delete the thread lol

Thanks for the quick answer :)

Hey guys, quick question with the server config file. There's a lot of player playing on my server without the new beta patch (or the wrong DayZ update) and using side chat for example. I saw in the config file that i can apply some "build restriction" on the server, but i have no idea about the correct way to write it (and didn't find it on the forum neither). Sooo... Can some friendly dude help me with that? I'll give you some scrap metal or tin cans after! Thank you :D

Best advice for a new player will be "do not try to survive +200h in your first life". Try to learn the basic of the game and the map before. and don't be too attached with your stuff. Then, don't bother going into cherno/electro, you'll die 9/10 times. Go north, there's lot of cities with very good loots/food/weapons, and there's very few players inland, so less dying possibility! :D

Well it's server related for sure... (or patch related?). I got a pretty good PC (i7 OC 4.5ghz/Gtx590/16go ram/Arma2 on a SSD) and my fps drops below 20 everytime i aggro some zombies in a town... After a server restart, it gets back to normal for a while!

Well, just after i finished my message, a small refresh on the Admin panel and BAM 1.7.1.4 available... Awesome lol Thanks anyway :)

Quick question guys, How do i update to the new lastest patch? I only have the "1.7.1.1" option in the admin panel at the moment. And again, thanks a lot for your speed and your -really- great work :)

Ordered mine with the sale yesterday at night... And the server was up and running an hour later. Damn that was fast lol

Well, i understand the idea behind the removal of those global channels. Yes it makes the game more realistic and brings a more brutal survival experience ingame. But i'm not a fan. I think the side channel brings some "animations" in the game. Peoples telling jokes, being scared to death or telling stories about their last bandit kill. I like to use the side channel for helping peoples on the server. A lot of guys are new (and a lot has never play Arma). So side-channel is the only way to help them or the one who have some issues with a command or don't know how to do something. Plus, it really helps for making friends/groups along the road, because using the direct-communication with a guy quite far just don't work very well (or i have to scream in my mic... yeah not a good idea since i always play when it's night at home lol), and a lot of players don't have a mic anyway and shoot you on sight without responding... I think we should have the possibility to use or not the side-channel ingame (an option in the menu... an item just for the text-chat like others say in the topic: a radio or i don't know something we can use to communicate). Pro-gamers who don't want to be disturb with text-chat turn it off, the others use it happily and everyone's happy lol Just my 2cents... And sorry if i write like a retard, English isn't my native language :)
