Well it runs smooth as silk on my machine... which isnt as good as yours over all id say... You should look up ram disk(a dude posted a tutorial on it in the forums today), its probably the read speed of your hard drive thats the bottle neck. Or get a SSD to run yah games off.. and another to run yah system off... and another for yah fraps... could get pretty expensive that way. My rig i7 920 @ 3.8ghz 12gb ram (run as single channel... because my mother board has hissy fits and has memory dumps when in double or triple) 120 gb ssd system drive (4 other HD, 7200rpm) GTX 580 It runs on highest settings fine with my rig.

I was really referring to the deodorant part o the suggestion ;) Yea the hunting thing too. Most animals associate, chemical smells with us... id assume after the first 24 hours zombies would associate the smell o people (deoderant/soap perfumes) with dinner... The longer you are in an environment the more you will smell like the environment (which in the cities, would be rot)

Yah know... it actually works the opposite way IRL... ive done a few longish tactical patrols, in the tropics (3/4 weeks) in my younger days... and you can smell a washed person from a LONG way off... because soaps etc are foreign, where as the unwashed grunt, with the rotting uniform... smells like everything else in the jungle, rot. (yah still wash as best yah can, with water on sweat cloth or what ever to prevent J rot/ prickly heat... but youd get charged for using soap... because you are giving away position) So great idea... but washing(with soap) makes people stand out like dog nuts compared to back ground smells.

Whats your hard drive setup? This is probably your bottle neck with ARMA2. I have heard that you can set it up loaded onto your ram if yah want to google. (i have similiar performance to you... i should really run it of my ssd or set up RAID for my games... but errr, its perfectly playable like this)

Your registry isn't being written correctly... 1 you NEED to run steam as administrator(right click on steam .exe/compatibility/check run steam as administrator/ click apply), then run both games individually all the way to the menu, to rewrite your registry. 2(if this donst work, go to games library in steam, right click on the .exe for ARMA2 go to properties/local files/ click on verify integrity of game cache, then repeat for OA, then repeat step 1 if this still fails.... you will need to delete your registry keys. then repeat the process... but get back to me if thats the case

Hell that is light! A gympy weighs the same(gpmg...m240) And yah sure as hell can lug those beasts around no worries.

Because i think its a cool arsed name for 1st person shooters... a few years prior i used to use Treehugginhippie, cause i figure being killed by a tofu eating fruit would make people rage more :huh:

Awesome work... i think you do have to be careful about implementing what is whined about the most though. Not that ill miss the aws, i dont use it, the server ive taken to playing on recently has custom weapons table and hasn't got them or AS50... or DMR... But it dosnt stop the whiners crying everytime they die... nor will this. Its just as the old saying goes, the empty vessel makes the most noise. (the last thing yah want is to end up like BF3 and nurfing and nuking weapons every update catering to the lowest common denominator) Although adding a few weapons is always good... maybe the ACOG l85 :D

good fire fight :thumbsup:

Just download dayz commander http://www.dayzcommander.com/ use that to instal and launch your game. other than that... no comment ;)

Ive been killed by someone doing that... i was on the other end o the bridge though, looking perplexed at how come the bridge stopped in the middle o the river... i was not a happy camper :(

So i assume this would mean we can break down the link from the m249 and m240... and .50bmg :D Ive always found it frustrating when there is all this 7.62 around... but apparently my character is to mentally retarded to figure out how to break link down so i can get ammo for the dragonov >:( Tis a good idea in my opinion :thumbsup:

If i were you, id download arma2 launcher by spirited machine http://www.armaholic...age.php?id=8241 and set it up through your addons. (its quite easy to use.. im sure there is stuff on net on how to set it up... but i can tell yah if yah NEED help ;) im going back to work in a minute though) otherwise, i believe you will have to use note pad to edit the launch options in yah _runA2CO in your arrowhead folder... going from memory... and i don't trust my memory... so if i were you i wouldn't trust me on this(i've used a launcher except at initially getting this mod) i should add... you could probably run it through dayz commander, by going to additional launch parameters and putting in -mod=@RMod or -mod=@what ever the hell the source file is called :huh:

Ive been mowen down in the barracks by a dude in a hummer with a .50 BMG(i thought i was safe as...) and another time when i decided to take on another hummer with my mighty fn fal his rounds were going clean through the car wreak i was trying to hide behind.. the .50s go through a bit... but yea agree, the 7.62 should have better penetration than it does. Although, i personally dont see much difference between the .308 vrs .303... i think they should be the same damage... unless the .303 is running 200grain snub noses... but then their penetration aint that flash(i tried to shoot a rabbit once with one through a fence post... the post stopped it! soft noses are shit for knockin holes in stuff.. great for transferring their energy to what they hit. So hunting rounds should do more damage than FMJs, but not have the penetrating power And high velocity rounds do some funky stuff at times... they can deviate from hitting twigs. Not that 7.62 falls in that catergory, but the 5.56 is bad for tracking. I love my .270 for open, ranged shooting... but ill still use a dirty ole .303 for scrub shooting... cause the bullet goes straight! Edit in here: Lost my train o thought... the point with tracking is that i think a 7.62 should be modeled as traveling through players... but not the 5.56 not so much, they have a habit o comin out at funky angles relative to line of fire, and tumbling. It could get quite involved trying to accurately model the effects o different rounds in game. But im sure future games will do it better and better... and for its time, ARMA2 is pretty damned impressive if yah ask me.

You could try the fix i post to this cat http://dayzmod.com/forum/index.php?/topic/106381-you-have-been-kicked-from-the-game/#entry1000210 on that thread... It does fix registry errors, that can cause kicks for bad key, or just random kick, or kick on joining... worth a go... just gettin a lil sick o re explaining every second day sorry. ;)

Try what i tell this cat to do in this thread http://dayzmod.com/forum/index.php?/topic/106381-you-have-been-kicked-from-the-game/#entry1000210 Do read all o my posts in that thread, and do as i say, and it should be good to go. :thumbsup:

Launch it through dayz commander http://www.dayzcommander.com/ It update yah beta and download the rest o the maps with it also... it will automatically set the launch parameters for which map you want tyo play etc...

You did run both games "INDIVIDUALLY" (ARMA2 then OA) all the way to the menu first aye? Before firing up CO for dayz? If yah did, id be at a loss without more information. Had a thought, something else it could be is Battle eye not updating (although it should specify that when you are kicked) Might be worth a go just manually reinstalling that)

No, just your registry keys, follow the instructions, in step five in the link i gave... just step five! Your registry keys have become corrupted somehow is what is the issue. Ill edit in here, that just re running yah games as administrator individually "might" fix it also.(although for some reason it didnt when i had to do it for my boys PC, and i had to do the above to get it corrected)

shouldnt lingor be closer to the equator than panthers :| just saying :P

You need to delete your registry keys http://www.veterans-gaming.com/vg-plugins/forum/forum_viewtopic.php?20735 step five in this link(follow exactly, messin with registry can create havoc) Now if its a steam game, make sure you are running steam as administrator, and you might as well verify the caches o both games while you are it. (so right click on short cuts in your games library/properties/local files, then click on verify integrity o game cache, and let it do its thing for both arma2 and OA... this probably isnt necessary, but errr) Now run both games individually all the way through to the menu(this rewrites yah registry keys) If you get a bad key error here somewhere, its because you are not running steam as administrator. This has worked for others with this issue i know.

I did that yesterda i did that yesterday too :D There are two eays yah can do it... i managed to prone, and crawl under the crater, and managed to stand up after much effort, and that broke my legs, and knocked me out, and eventually killed me.... The other way is, when you are logging back in, hit the esc when you are "waiting for character to create", then just wait for it to load in, and the respawn button wont be greyed out... yup, curiousity can sure kill some cats eh ;)

The bullet still falls where the front post sits... so not such a big deal for open dove tail sites, just a pain for ones with rear aperture!(pdw) It shoots to the right

You can move while firing, at a slow walk... i dont have an issue with this myself, i did ten years infantry, and been shooting since i was a weeee tacker... and shooting while yah running is pissing into the wind realistically... hunting one time i did manage to nail two goats firing from the hip sliding down a bank(which in hind site was stupid... when yah young errr) It should make it crazy inaccurate, like shoot yerself in the foot inaccurate.

have you updated your dayz commander today? (there wasa few issues i saw on the forums with it delting maps or some such) The other way would be to manually enable it in dayz commander, by going to settings/ additional launch parameters, then putting in -mod=@NC (if you installed it direct as nighcrawler instructed, or if you installed via commander try -mod=@DayZ_Namalsk It may just be this deleting bug that was fixed with last commander update?
