Hello there See above vid. Use search engine. Read Stickies in Ban Appeals area. Don't use hacks or install software from non trustable sources. Locking. Rgds LoK

Hello there No, nothing needs to be taken anywhere. You're right, it is his/her version, not others, but they have a right to it as you have yours. Is it a code we all *need* to abide by? Nope. Interesting stuff though. Rgds LoK

Hey there! is my laptop powerful enough etc etc

Hello there Been trying to post this but the forums a bit slow on my end. http://dayzmod.com/forum/index.php?/topic/105546-can-i-run-it-ask-here-part-2/ rgds LoK -
Hey there! is my laptop powerful enough etc etc

Hello there Judge for yourself with the Arma2free game. If it can run that well, then you *might* be lucky with OA+dayz. Your integrated gfx card worries me greatly though. But, some folk are happy playing at different resolutions and settings so try for your self. Just don't expect miracles. also, next time make your title a bit more descriptive please. Rgds LoK -
Hello there DAYZ is different to real life, sentinel. In DAYZ it's easier and safer to kill another player, why waste blood on an anonymous player? This might differ if there was a small and regular community on that particular server as a "good act" may later be repaid with another "good act." But as it's easy to server hop one doesn't build up those relationships and other anon players become mere sources of kit and food. One cannot compare real life behaviour to in game behaviour, although aspects of a persons deeper persona may (and often does) come out in gameplay. rgds LoK

Hello there Have you played vanilla Arma/OA before. It's an odd transition from mainstream games to the RV engine. If not, I recommend trying Arma2free to see if your brain and fingers can handle it. :) Also, it's a nice test for your PC. Rgds LoK

Colour-Blind Player Here, Struggling without Debug Screen
OrLoK replied to [email protected]'s topic in DayZ Mod Suggestions
Hello there I dont know how easy it would be to implement but an ability to select different colour scheme HUDs would be a nice idea for those with said issue. Good idea rgds LoK -
Do you remember your first time playing DayZ?
OrLoK replied to tiresomehoopla's topic in DayZ Mod General Discussion
Ahhh, they were all friendly back in the day. Happy times. Not like those long haired survivors you get today with their loud music and liberal attitudes.. Rgds LoK Edit: actually has a blast my first time, was completely scared with me and a bunch of chaps running around Cherno with flares aplenty. All got eaten. Fun.. -
Hello there Some webhosts just refuse to push through the png, I've had this issue myself. Hosting the xml on another server is *a* fix, although possibly not ideal. As to the cause/solution, I dont know. Could be something as silly as the host being a linux/windows box, it could be the file permissions who knows? But it does happen and can cause much wailing and gnashing of teeth. So, while I may not be assisting it *may* not be you doing anything wrong. Test your xml on different webhosts. (also watch what prog you edit the file in some txt editors failed for me whilst others didnt) Sorry to be a bit of a doom bunny Rgds LoK

If you could make 3 specific changes what would they be?
OrLoK replied to Sula's topic in DayZ Mod General Discussion
Hello there A complete overhaul of player movement and interaction with objects. Should only take 10 mins to fix... rgds LoK EDIT: I'll think of a hard one for the third suggestion. -
This game needs more S.T.A.L.K.E.R. feeling... Right?
OrLoK replied to Expressen's topic in DayZ Mod General Discussion
Hello there IMHO Dayz, should have a ......um.......DAYZ feel to it. It's an individual game in it's own right and doesn't link in to any of the Stalker Mythos/Film/Book etc other than being based in the Eastern Block. Don't get me wrong, I loved the flawed brokeness that was the original 3 stalker games, they are/were amazing, but they're that and this is this. rgds LoK -
@above: what? @OP: a little obvious observation IMHO. @the universe: Pay to win is the spawn of the devil. Rgds LoK

Private Hive server looking for players (New vehicles like landrovers, pick ups and SUV's)
OrLoK replied to NeeCH's topic in Clan / Group Recruitment
Gosh it's bumpy in here. New shock absorbers needed? Multiple bumps can get you warning points as some of you know. My post is a freebee. After that... rgds LoK -

Edited title as we don't really need sweary locked threads and you still get the jist. Whatever would the neighbours say?

Ah a pleasant multicultural evening...most civilized!
OrLoK replied to Sula's topic in DayZ Mod General Discussion
Hello there The more L337 amongst us will rail against this, but I'm with you. I prefer a game against a common shared enemy rather than against everyone. PM me the address of that server sometime. :) Rgds LoK -
Hello there To me, I think this is something that should be community run external to the game. Top 10's of anything inherently warp player behaviour in game. Nice ideas, but have it external, meta gaming if you will. Rgds LoK

Hello there Did you try the drivers? The CPU whilst hot isnt unheard of. Always good to clean out the fans now and again to ease heating issues. Rgds LoK
-
Hello there Well, your first port of call is going to be GFX related. Drivers all up to date? Using betas? Nvidia or ATI? Checked out the BiS forums? Had a quick search here? Rgds LoK

Hello there Whilst electric vehicle do exist, in the Eastern Block Chenarus one would assume them to be almost non existent. If the game were based ina rich part of L.A. or a tourist destination then it might be worth an inclusion. In the current setting, I just don't think it fits. Interesting idea though, I'd love one of those "segway" things. Rgds LoK

DayZ standalone should not be TOO cheap
OrLoK replied to dasd2516's topic in DayZ Mod General Discussion
Hello there Thread's getting a bit off track. Regardless of the pricing the attraction to hackers is it's popularity. It will be popular, no doubt about that and therefore it will attract those likely to script (or the new equivalent). The actual amount of scripting as we see it today will drop to almost, if not absolute, zero (but those little blighters always seem to find a loophole.) To believe cost detracts from cheating is terribly naive. (although I do understand where OP is coming from although the idea is flawed.) As per usual, anything i write/say/think regarding the SA is purely my humble opinion based on a crumbling mind. rgds LoK -

OrLoK replied to dasd2516's topic in DayZ Mod General Discussion
Fine, if you pay for my copy. Not all of us have cash to throw around. Also, there's no way price will effect scripters. Rgds LoK -
Don't do what Minecraft did...
OrLoK replied to [email protected]'s topic in DayZ Mod General Discussion
hello there The beauty of Dayz/Arma is that it's so mod-able. If the mod takes a turn in a direction unsuited to many players you can bet your bottom dollar that someone will branch off in their own direction with an edited version. For, me personally, content is key. The more the merrier. Rgds LoK -
Hello there I don't think one can label a map "better" than the other as different features will appeal to different folk. Chernarus can be very pretty indeed and often *feels* real. But, it is a resource hog. Lingor, whilst not as professionally put together has a nice "voodoo" feel to it and has plenty of enterable buildings and some "fun" inclusions such as the racetrack. It also performs more efficiently for me. Namalsk is also a groovy place with a very Stalker like feel (many ripped assets from the stalker game) and again is a good performer. Your best bet is to try em all and chat with yer clan mates, it's difficult to decide on your behalf. Rgds LoK

Hello there It takes intelligence to deceive, but it takes more intelligence to realise that one is capable of wrong and actively act against that notion. In life and in game it's far easier to be an arse, but it takes *the better man" to rise above the simple ways. This is why I may KoS but i'm not a bandit. Discuss. rgds LoK
