    FPS DROPS in DayZ Standalone.. GTX1070

    Okay... well at least now you've made an effort. I think people will be more inclined to help. With that said, from my position what with the limited background I have in the technical aspects of your question I can say with some confidence that what you're seeing is simply some early inefficiencies of the new renderer. All of those areas you're looking at / running through used to crush frames down into single digits in some cases. Some people have had some success in going into game files and adjusting settings under the hood in ways the current game UI doesn't allow... There are, oh, I don't know- about 100 threads on optimizations and individual settings (including this one at the top of this forum: ) Now, with that said, this is all based on the old tech so I'm not sure how much of that ports over. All of the dips come at points where you'd expect there to be some dips- ie: looking into the city. As you look out to the ocean you're up to 90+ since there's nothing for the card to do and as you turn and look into the city your frames drop to 25 or so. Again, that used to bring it down to mid 10s or even lower in some cases even with my GTX980 and similar processor and in game settings. Not sure if it's because the card is still silently / invisibly rendering objects you can't see... or some other technical jargon- but nothing I saw in your video was anything I wouldn't have expected that would lead me to think there was something wrong (other than woefully under-optimized graphics ie: alpha) So short version is your frames are dropping at ordinary places where you can expect to see reduced performance until additional optimizations are added. The community is always looking for and testing new things to squeeze every last drop out of their hardware since many spend really good money on the best hardware they can afford and expect a solid return on their investment. Use the search function... test out some of the solutions offered.

    I shudder to think about what your other 188 posts were like.

    C'mon man- you're going to need to do better than that. And in "new player discussion" section? Why not... say... Troubleshooting?

    Make Chernarus an Island??????????

    Nah- was talking more about a boat in the event they turned it into an island. And my comment about first machine guns, then helicopters... was meant as mostly sarcasm given that neither one of those things contributes anything to what the game was described as when most bought into the concept for more than cheesy pvp.

    I liked it... well titled too, actually.

    New wild grass

    This has always been a severe shortcoming... especially for people who have a legitimate interest in staying hidden. Nevermind snipers etc- but actual hermits who would be happier if people just moved along without knowing they were there. Now, you can sit half a kilometer away in trees 5 row of trees back and stand out like an ingrown hair.

    I had a sarcastic response to this but I deleted it. No amount of sarcasm would be adequate to truly represent the amount that is warranted.

    Patience

    Well...it's not for everyone but I actually set a separate button for fire weapon as well- in the event I'm working in more of a sniper capacity. First of all, go to the assignment for hold breath and remove the RMB. That way you can zoom without holding your breath. Zoom can remain RMB. I set my hold breath to B and my alternate fire key to M. That way I don't move the mouse unnecessarily when I'm pressing the mouse button. I find it helps but you don't need to do that if you don't want to. As for why the program isn't picking up your various mouse buttons- windows may have simply installed it as a generic mouse and you may need to install specific drivers for it. I have my back thumb button set for in game voice chat since it's easy to activate while moving and doing other stuff.
  10. Holy fuck... we get it already. You don't want to stop drop and roll to get wet faster. Jesus.
  11. I've been carrying one for two characters across .60 so far and never had any issues... weapon with attachments... I do have issues when I drink from the pot- I can't drop the pot or return it to inventory but I relog and it works. This typically happens when I am also storing things in the pot- can't recall it if happens when the pot only has water in it. I guess I'm rolling the dice or there is some other combination of things causing problems that we're not putting out finger on.
  12. I agree with this entirely... make wells randomly break so you need a pipe wrench crafted with a pipe to fix them. Make smaller ponds a last resort to drink from at any level of health. But I also agree that much of what we're seeing in excess right now is simply a workout for the overall spawn mechanics. Making sure things are spawning in where they're supposed to and how. Once there's some confirmation that it's all in good order I expect we'll see the sliders dropped down to minimums.

    Make Chernarus an Island??????????

    I agree that encountering a beach would be less immersion killing than encountering a distinctive line into an infinite light brown landscape and that concept would provide with many more opportunities to head out to sea to islands visible on the horizon... Swim or row a boat (with storage). But- machine guns first... then helicopters. Then maybe a row boat.

    DayZ SA Trains?

    Not a bad necro...always thought the rail system should have some use and it's a shame to see such an elaborate setup serve no function whatsoever. Handcars would be one option but a track utility vehicle would also provide an effective, low energy means of conveyance. I've seen these referred to as "railroad speeder cars." These in conjunction with an assortment of turntables (below) would be a reasonable and practical addition to the overall gameplay while still being operated at the same level as our existing motor pool. Could be gas or diesel fed... require spark / glow plugs... batteries... As running leading to exhaustion is hopefully going to be a "thing" sooner than later, having something like this would be a delightful benefit. (I say this knowing it's never that simple... but hey- it seems like a decent ground level suggestion).
  15. Not sure why you said you got hyperthermic and then ran around dry with heatpacks... Sounds like you thought you had hyPOthermia. You evidently made yourself super hot and didn't have the patience to cool off. Next time you're hyPERthermic- just find a pond with all your clothes on, get on your belly and crawl around / roll side to side. Not too long or you'll drowned. Once you're "drenched" then just carry on as normal. But if you're drenched don't stay still for too long because you'll get "cold" and actually start shaking... and shaking is a REAL pain in the ass to get past.

    Patience

    Is it just me or is your "hold breath" still bound to your zoom button?
  17. You know, now that you mention it I've always liked walking down to the water in Berezhki. Granted I don't spend much time there since it's extremely remote but if I wanted to pick a spot where I was going to hermit, that would definitely be it.You'd have 5 nearby car spawns to run around and check if you got antsy... hmmmm.

    Info game and modders

    Funny, I could say large percentage of those people left because the game departed from its advertised "Open world survival video game currently in development by Bohemia Interactive" and descended to the drummed down shoot-em-up roll in the hay experience touting rocket launchers, machine guns and helicopters. Many of us are hanging on in hopes that it returns to the idea we bought into in the first place... Others are lying in wait for the time the game they were told was being made is actually released- if ever.

    Tents despawn time

    I think one can safely assume that the whole "pack / pitch" thing is still going to be a thing for tents and barrels... we've got some work to do!
  20. Hey! You're fishing in my pond!
  21. I wish you'd asked this last week since I was "home" cooling my loins in a pond on the north side of the Green Mountain antenna and snapped a great screenshot. I'm not sure you'd have approved of it since it was pretty jank by your standards but it truly captured the essence of what you're seeking (to me). I'll post it when I get access to it again but it'll take some time. I also do really like the lone barn roofed house located just slightly north and west of Sosnovka... I'd settle in there if it wasn't for the high travel through the heli hook immediately in that area. You haven't been through Severograd lately, have you? ;) (kidding mostly, but I got caught with a dud round in my FNX the other day and was really left scrambling)

    Tents despawn time

    I stumbled into a barrel I haven't accessed for at least 2 weeks... Probably more but I've lost track of time. One of the first I ever set up in .60. Good to know the tent repack / pitch restriction on inventory is still a thing... We lost a lot because of that in .59. Oh and aren't crafted backpacks only an hour? And I don't think any backpack is persistent through a restart. Not sure about containers like pots, protector cases and first aid kits. I know they last through restarts but not how long they are persistent.

    Having a problem (HELP)

    You're not alone: Sadly, this guy still hasn't got it figured out either.
  24. Yeah we've pretty much just ignored vehicles unless we find one that's almost complete and have missing parts on us. even then vehicles are in a state that is barely playable. The desync from anything but the drivers position is just idiotic, and watching a vehicle from a distance (i.e.: 50ft or more) renders only the husk of an unfinished vehicle with no driver or passenger until you get closer than that. Vehicle on vehicle is as clunky and awkward as Irish on Irish porn and the mechanics of actually driving a vehicle what with the status of tires etc is embarrassingly bad. But with all that said as shitty as that all is it's still better than shift-w
  25. Fair statement... With that said I don't know the mechanics of what lifting is being done by the CPU and what is being done by the GPU. I can only imagine that across a map that size there will always be a lot of information being drafted out of the HDD... which may not impact FPS but I have to assume it would impact the overall running of the game. With that said, I've never played it on an HDD and like Cold am completely bias towards the use of SSDs. But you're right- the SSD upgrade won't resolve FPS- I guess it all comes down to what "stuttering / lag" it was that he was talking about in his OP title. Add graphics- yeah, that's graphics card... or is it? Again I don't know what's driven by the CPU and what's driven by GPU at this point with the renderer in the state it is.
