Arma 2 Bullet Travel/Windage/ Other Factors, possible to bombard at 5+km?
OrLoK replied to Neokolzia's topic in DayZ Mod General Discussion
Hello If I were you I'd check out the Arma forums as long range sniping has been discussed to death and even tables have been drawn up. Unfortuneately with DAYZ 1km rule, engagements over this range are going to be difficult. Using a spotter system might work, but your guys would have to be very well trained and disciplined. Perhaps with the addon of something like the built in artillery computer for spotters this could be achieved. It does however seem like alot of work for something that could be achieved with a couple of decent snipers, or chaps with suppressed weapons. Good out the box thinking though, keep it up. Rgds LoK -
What if we there was a Day Z battle recorder/theatre mode?
OrLoK replied to fearz0r's topic in DayZ Mod General Discussion
Hello all Regardless of whether its a good idea or not, just to let you know there are several A2 mods that do just this, from After Action Reports to Spectator Cams to Action Cams. So, once the kinks had been worked out it is possible, and the means to do it exists now. Rgds LoK -
Thanks Nicklas on NL 8 for the bicycle, and your weapons.
OrLoK replied to Towbiekun's topic in DayZ Mod General Discussion
Hello there, Surely this should be in the DAYZ stories sticky? rgds LoK -
Hello there does the game work when you don't use the launcher? I assume you mean sixlauncher? Rgds LoK

Hello there as the OP says, use the site as a guide, *not* gospel truth, as with any site such as this. It will not guarantee you can "max" out DAYZ even if it says you exceed requirements. rgds LoK

Hello there I too, am having this issue, so you are not alone. I've yet to be able to use a tent, it would be nice to know how. I get the same "you cant place a tent here" type message wherever I place it. Rgds LoK

Hello there You have been advised. You have to BUY OA. you can try bodging it with A2Free but you still need OA. Sorry, chum. Rgds LoK

List of offical servers (or a way to identify offical servers)
OrLoK replied to [email protected]'s topic in DayZ Mod General Discussion
hello there Also, be aware that any person running a server can make a @hive folder, it wont definitely mean its an official one. You can call your addon folders whatever you wish, I remember seeing one called something like @myhiddenpornstash. Rgds LoK -
Hello You need to make a purchase. In the meantime download a2free and get some practice in. Arma doesnt play like other games, and its also a good way to see if you system can handle it. Lastly its great fun Rgds LoK

Hello there Firstly why did you do this? Ive never heard of that as being a good thing. It sounds like you have implemented a lot of things and may have made a simple mistake somewhere. My advice is to reinstall (sorry but if youve been overwriting files then its best to start with a clean slate) and use the dayz commander/armarize/sixlauncher and find which one is more suited to you. Dont go the whole hog and try to edit everything in one go. DAYZ can work without command lines so get it up and running then add them Take one step at a time. Rgds LoK

Let's clear up your rules a little, shall we?
OrLoK replied to AllDayZSimon's topic in Mod Servers & Private Hives
Hello there Surely *common sense* should rule? If ones server is being hacked, I very much doubt the devs will blacklist you for banning the said offender. Any unjust bans can be appealed. Use the rules as a guide not commandments written in stone. Rgds LoK -
Hello there For the beginner the best place to look is in Barns. There is almost always a weapon or useful loot in those and many are away from dangerous towns. rgds LoK

Hello there This is an issue within the game, there needs to be a reason to continue once one hits their particular ceiling. Game Mechanics included to rebuild society might help. That would give the non-Bandits and Bandits something to do. Think Mad Max 2 rgds LoK

Hello there what would you like us to post? Or are you just having an annoyed rant and want no replies at all? Rgds LoK

Which map would you like to see for dayz?
OrLoK replied to liukang168's topic in DayZ Mod Suggestions
Hello Lingor for the voodoo feel The maps from Iron Front (an arma based ww2 mod/standalone) The important thing being that on those maps almost all buildings are enterable. Rgds LoK PS Iron Front's main map is larger than Chenarus :) -
Hello there Etiquette seems to have gone out of the window recently. My advice is to avoid strangers and don't kill unless you are threatened. Hopefully mechanics will be added to curb the KOS culture that's risen up. Rgds LoK

Hello there Zed will open (walk through) doors and can hit you through walls as well. They can also climb ladders. Basically wherever you can go, they can follow, after some time. Be careful hotswapping weapons when you have no free slots left. Backpacks/tents/the inventory has a habit of *eating* weapons. rgds LoK
-
Hello there I hope this hasn't been mentioned before (it is quite obvious), but how about upon death or after a certain amount of Zed damage (ie infection al la warewolves/vampires) have the player become as a zombie until they are killed again? This would add an interesting PVP aspect and would make Zeds (or at least Player controlled Zeds) something to be uber wary of. Also it would increase play time for the player and perhaps soothe the loss of kit. Thoughts? Rgds LoK

Hello In SP the loot time seems to be either very low or based on distance. in MP Ive guestimated about 10 mins. I dont know why there's a difference. I find that if one clears a pile completely then that will respawn, rather than having to clear the building. Rgds LoK

Best Video Settings For A Good Amount Of FPS (For weak Labtops/PCs)
OrLoK replied to ChinWooMan's topic in DayZ Mod General Discussion
Hello there I appreciate you ideal, but your simply showing us that you run on low settings. If i was you I would post info about command line settings or that using the cfg settings to set different antialiasing from the standard can improve ones performance. Rgds LoK PS. The visibility tip is useful though :) -
Hello there Choice would have to be a factor, a simple yes/no screen on death. rgds LoK

New Drama Idea, Player Infection
OrLoK replied to xXxSlyWolfxXx's topic in DayZ Mod General Discussion
Hello there Lotta negative feedback http://dayzmod.com/forum/index.php?/topic/36580-playable-zombies/ rgds LoK -
Hello, I assume you mean the 10 round boxes instead of the usual 5 round ones. Yes it can. Several weapons, although not all can use different/similar rounds. rgds LoK

What does everyone do in DayZ's "end game"?
OrLoK replied to DayZPvP.com's topic in DayZ Mod General Discussion
Hello there This is an issue with the game. As there are no mechanics for trading/building etc once one is kitted out then "stuff to do" can get a bit lean. Imagination is a great help, but it would be nice to have something to do in the world once one has the kit one needs. Rgds LoK -
Hello there Harmless weed? Harmless? Highly carceongenic, can cause mental health issues etc, etc Dont forget harmless beer and cigs. rgds LoK
