    Two things I can recall.

    First: Fully geared, NVG, rfinder, coyote, gps, dmr, m4sd, m9sd and a jeep stacked full of gear. I was driving nearly full speed down the road between pustoshka and vybor and a broken truck didn't stream in until the last second (literally). Kaboom, lost everything. Was also carpet bombed once with pretty much the same gear, lost a truck too.

    Second: I was being shot at in Berezino, I was on the top of the supermarket. Got put onto about 2k blood before I spotted the guy and put a burst of M16 in his skull. I bandaged up, took morphine and as I pressed esc to climb down the ladder my keys bugged up and my guy sprints off the roof and I fall to my death losing everything. Shortly after the server restarted so I couldn't try to retrieve my gear.

    Sorry for the poor typing im on my phone.

    Lowest reso possible is 640x480 and even I have a shitty card and don't have too much of an issue in cities down on that resolution.

    Doesn't make any sense? Make sure no extra programs (Browser' date=' any high process programs.) are running in the background, try setting some launch options, set Arma2OA.exe as high priority when launching, try Gamebooster.

    My launch options:



    -beta=Expansion\beta;Expansion\beta\Expansion -nosplash -mod=@dayz -maxmem=8192 -world=empty -cpuCount=4


    [/quote']

    What exactly do those launch options change?

    Try not to bump unless it's been a day or two.

    Welcome to my world! :V Since you state nearly everything is disabled' date=' I assume you have turned off Vsync and Post Process effects?

    Sorry, always been a bit impatient. And yes, Vsync and PPE are disabled. Even on the lowest resolution possible I still have FPS lag, I just don't get it. Surely my computer isn't that bad.

    Hey guys,

    I'm a huge fan of the mod but it's getting extremely frustrating to play because I have terrible FPS the majority of the time. I've read some threads on solutions to improve your FPS and have been able to ever so slightly increase it, however it is still terrible.

    When I am in an open area with no trees/buildings around, I peak at around 30 FPS, it ranges from 25-30. However, when I head into a dense area like a forest or a city, or even if I look/zoom in on these areas my FPS can drop to anywhere between 10-15. This makes the game almost unplayable.

    I play the game with everything on very low or disabled and 1024x768 resolution, however I still lag.

    Some of my computer specs:

    Intel Core i3 Processor i3-550

    4GB RAM

    1TB HDD

    ATI Radeon HD 5450 w/ 1GB VRAM

    Any help would be fantastic

    Bump. Can anyone help? This is the second troubleshooting thread I've made and I've had no responses.

    The luckiest loot drop I have ever gotten was from my first helicopter crash site. There was an FN FAL ANPV S4, an M107 and a DMR, all with mags. The drop rates for these are ridiculously low, and it was at a crash site as well! I was stoked.

    My luckiest loot from an act of banditry came just moments ago, from a poor, and slightly stupid soul in Vybor. I was crawling around with my buddy, we had just raided the supermarket and were about to head out of town when I heard silenced gunfire. My buddy couldn't hear it so I went in the direction I heard the shots and ended up hearing them again, this time right on the opposite side of the wall. I hurried around the wall, leaned out and saw him firing at a group of zed's with an SD M4. He was facing away from me so I emptied a few rounds into him and he dropped. He was packing an M4 CCO SD with 3 mags, a DMR, NVG and a ghillie suit, which for some reason I couldn't pick up. Paranoid as ever as I made my way back to my campsite.

    Hi guys,

    I'm having a little bit of trouble with the game, most of these problems occurred after I updated to 1.7.

    Inventory Problems

    I believe this is a common bug, but my version of the bug seems to be a tad different. When I press G to open my inventory and click on an item it automatically starts scrolling through all my items so I can't do things like drop an item. I've been told the way to fix this is by pressing TAB, although this never works. It also seems to be permanent, even leaving and rejoining servers does not resolve it.

    Vehicle Interface

    Ever since 1.7, each time I enter a vehicle I have only got a small box in the top left corner of my screen which shows fuel and the overall status of my vehicle (It's like a shield, sort of a HP bar), so it no longer tells me the status of the engine, hull, wheels etc. Also possibly related to this, whenever I press F to change to flares or change between semi-auto and full-auto on weapons I cannot see the text displaying whether it is Full or Semi.

    Spawn Location Text

    Whenever I spawn I can hear the sound of the text appearing, however the text does not appear so I am never told where I spawn.

    Sporadic Disconnects

    Now this is more than likely something on my end, but I'm baffled nonetheless. Often when I'm in-game, out of nowhere I will begin lagging and then receive the "No message received" message. I've noticed a pattern, every time this happens I get a red chain, which changes to a yellow chain, then the disconnect. I am not disconnecting from anything else like Teamspeak etc.

    Any help regarding any of these problems would be greatly appreciated.
