Regiee

Ok so this has happened three times now, searched and couldnt find my exact problem. First time i didnt realise what had happened... 2nd time I had a pistol and ammo in my primary inventory, went to swap the pistol for the torch in my backpack and the pistol and ammo disappeared completely?! 3rd time (after finally finding a pistol), i decided to move the gun into my backpack first... and it all just disappeared in front of me, nothing ever ending up in the back pack. Why the ammo (and i think even the bandages) disappear when changing the weapon slot is beyond me. Anyone else having this problem or no whats causing it, as i found another gun but am too scared to change to it :(

I know right, haha :P

They look like a paper package bound with string, (yellow/baking paper). Like something youd see at a post office and are around the same size as one of the smaller backpacks. Hope that helps :)

Well then i guess ex-military personal need to understand they are playing a video game and are not still on the battle field. So that face of yours is going to become rather red and raw until you calm down and take that into account.

Hi guys, i was wondering if someone could give me some tips to setting up Fraps to run with Dayz? It seems like i have it working but it only records very little or not at all. I launch via six launcher (without steam option) and can see the frame rate while in game, but if i toggle the video recording it either only records a few seconds, or shuts the fraps down. I've tried Bandicam and that just records my desktop without actually capturing the in game. Scratching my head. Can someone let me know how they have theirs setup? Cheers,

If you're fixing a car, i guess you'd be a mechanic who already knows what he's doing, same with a computer and being a techy. "These kinds of people" you are refering to are people that have lesser knowledge in a given field. For new Dayz-ers, these weapons dont mean much more than protection. Im sure the longer they play, the better they will get at remembering exact names. Truth is, it's still anal to come down on people for not knowing exact models and brands. I call the M1911 a Colt, and you'd only know that if you know what an M1911 was, so im not being DayZ correct, but im not wrong either :P

Hahahaha, wow, so many people worried about terminology, if you understand what they meant, I don't see the point of being auto correctors? Are you guys that anal?

Waiting or joining another server. Alternatively, check the server versions and make sure your Amra2 Beta is up to date and match servers accordingly.

Hahaha, this is standard. Easy targets are easy targets :P

Im the same, i have no idea what will happen, and until i get my first kill with the M107, im gunna be to scared to put it on haha

Unless there was objectives to the single player option you mention, i fail to see how dayz would benefit from it? Open world with just you and dumb zombies seems kind of pointless to me

Because not everyone is selfish in their game playing.

Id easily pay upto $100 for a solid standalone dayz

Why expect ANYTHING from a work in progress?

Im assuming you have the latest Arma 2 Beta? If not, that might be your problem.

DO disconnect if: - You have to go AFK for more than a couple of minutes - You've finished playing for the day/night - The server is not your preferred time of day/night (I might get flammed for that one, but i dont see the problem if you dont move) DONT disconnect if: - You're being chased by zombies - You're under attack from players and/or hurt - You're trying to remove zombies in the immediate vicinity - You're planning on server hopping to aquire more loot or flank players - [EDIT] You think/see someones near by I'll probably receive a whole bunch of hating for this "pointless" thread, but it seems like almost everyone is taking part in the DONT list?? Surely it must be a lack of knowledge rather than them all being pussy exploiters.... right?

Then your backwards as matey, another self name and shame to add to the list, thanks :)

Should have read more of Vipeax's posts: Lost gear cant be recovered and no location requests.

I dont think this can be called a bug but the new visibility system could do with some tweaking (this is what we are here to test ;) ). As people can read from previous posts in this thread, the system is a bit off (random), i too have had a zed's run at me from well over 250m away. One instance, while crouched at the edge of a tree line a z came rushing my way from, IMO, an unreasonable distance and yet not the few zombies walking the same direction that were closer. Then the rushing zombie seems to "alert" the others and then its a snow ball effect from there.

Now that is a damn fine idea.

+1 Server restarts have caused me to spawn on the beach multiple times now, (stopped counting after 5 respawns) with a previous times gear or none at all.

Same here, every tower in the barbed wire military compound at Baltoa always has one or two zombies beneath the deer huts. Normally if theres two stuck in them, one of them is glitching (shaking irradically).

Bump for conformation: Where you were: N/A What you were doing: Switching servers *Current installed version: 1.7.2 *Server(s) you were on: Various *Timeline of events before/after error: AusArma servers i am one charcter. US Servers i am a different character in a different location with different gear Euro servers, same applies as above. I'm wondering if this is somewhat of an answer to server jumping/looting but i only change server if i want different time of day / crap frame rate issues / not enough spots on server to log on. Its quite hindering.

I came across some camo last night and havent seen any kind of clothing in quite some time (since 1.7.1.2) and was quite excited, but thanks to some chatting players on side chat i was alerted many days before about people losing all gear (or other consiquences). I'm not aware of the full extent of this bug so i was wondering if someone could clarify exact results when changing into camo/ghille suit? With that said, if it is just items + backpack that are being removed (i also heard that the ghille/camo also dissapears), could one simply drop all items except the clothing, try to put it on, then pick up all the gear again?

So what happens if i were to reconnect once this had been done? Would i still be in swim mode or would i reconnect fine but without items? I believe the server will keep my items near by if i drop them, but the sound of endless swimming/glitching is starting to turn me off this test. I know i should wait for a patch but i love testing, its what its all about :P
