Use barrels around the map. There is not 1 thing we can suggest. It is suppose to or did 1 week pack up tents etc..

good question, i haven't seen this yet. I took on a whole town of infected today, was hit a few times but never went unconscious. It would seem they can keep hitting you if your down. I watched them hit the truck, if i was in it as a driver. It is possible they are still hitting you until dead.

I've read some comments is weapon losses still happening if you have a primary, axe and another weapon in your hands? What I did today, so I didn't lose the aug while searching for heli spawns, and search the deer stands was to do it exactly the same way. 1. Open my inventory. 2. Drag the hand weapon onto the left side of the UI "Ground" drop the AUG and once I seen the AUG on the ground safely. 3. Started to climb the deerstand I have not seen a loss so far in any of the servers I played on today. Now I did do something stupid and almost lost the aug I thought. I saw a Acog scope, picked it up and hotkey it to 6 I switched to 6 and my AUG disappeared, so I thought. It was behind me thrown somehow. I can see this being the exact same bug we had before in .59 etc... so what I suggest is if you must carry the extra weapon primary like I did "for a freshie friend" follow steps 1-3 and it seems to be working for now. I wont be totally honest it is full proof but it seems to work. And I mean never try this around a well, road area, hill area or close to a building or inside one. Be in an open area if you must carry your weapon this way. 2 60-60 aug mags, styr aug, 2 30 mags, fully decked out gun just about hopefully I don't lose it. :)

Rgr i will keep an eye out for stuff like that. Hopefully the SQL database and the game engine start working together better for us. I honestly hope they work on some of these bugs to reduce tension between players and devs.

OVERHEATING !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
sneakydude replied to wampa's topic in General Discussion
I wore a firemans jacket, a motor bike helmet server was constant raining i never got wet once, but i have noticed i never seem to overheat with those items in the summer. Not sure what your wearing to do so guys. -
After that happens Emuthreat? are you seeing a memory error screen pop up, even if you don't see that error window right away. You close dayz and the memory error pops up? I have been tracking some of this and each time it shows a memory cant be written to error dialog box at the end. I did find out that as a freshie if that error is still present behind dayz you can get disconnected repeatably and die repeatably.. like walking into a bus and disconnect screen, restart as a freshie, same deal disconnect eventually seeing that the error is a memory cant be written to error. You close the program restart it up and its hit or miss if the game works. New to me, so i am unsure if this is a common error people get.

Fuck sakes seriously? why would you post this shit here. Use the damn tracker correctly. I am sure they are working on emerg fixes. They are trying to put in a realistic jamming feature for us, and bugs will be here until they get past all the major crashing bugs etc.. We have to report this. Sorry foxyfirefox please remove that video... asap

Not that i have seen, usually it ends up being a bad round or two. I believe you can just hit R to eject the bad round and your fine afterwards. I have only seen it once or twice so far and hit R i believe both times by default. Why R for me, because i am used to that in other FPS games. First thing you do is hit R or your dead type thing. The .59 was mainly on heli spawns. Which does not have duplicate items because it de spawns after a length of time, if that is still the way things are handled. 5.56mm ammo is taken from augs, m4's and any cmags Now you brought up another good point. Should we have before server reboots?? a complete wipe from non static wipes and rebuild the non static item base? Static is what a player character places down (if the devs classify that as static now) Otherwise to me, persistence items that where originally there and not picked up after a server "soft" reboot maybe duplicating the items to pretend it is "persistence" on reboot since nobody picked them up to save on server re population of items.
-
You might have hit the whole losing gear issue on the head. Why do we see 3 of the same items scattered beside the other one? what one might be real and another one a duplicate someone else picked up? the database regards both as duplicate. Another issue we are not totally aware of is this memory crash window, when logged back in you die right away rinse and repeat 5-6 times until you close the game down. This maybe a duplicate check, and it found out that the sql database had id 2 and id 2 and id 2 all showing up so it deletes all 3. This is not the same thing i was explaining about how to drop a gun on the ground safely before grabbing out your water bottle (rare as Fuk) before you climb up a ladder.

Having a heck of a time getting bohemia new login scripts to work with edge, and IE 11. I may transport over to firefox if this keeps up. Some work some don't, but this login script is getting really annoying on a brand new 10 install.

I took all cloths off, replaced at tent city with new ones, red hypo within 1 minute joining a new server for the morning hours to see what I can find. Found a beautiful vss with pristine scope already on the ground. Ran towards the trees to take cover and open up a fire kit right away. Was about normal range away when I saw melting your face message, pulled back quite a few paces, and still got the message. No grey outs until it said your unconscious, then dead message. I swear I have never seen this bug or whatever its called before. Red hypo yes, but it was controlled before. Red to dead in under 5 minutes with new cloths on gorka even. So I looked at the clothing saw light blue damp even from the tent. Face mask I think was wet dark blue... threw that away It was the worst bug you can face, other then running up stairs and dieing LOL OK dieing from broken leg left on the 100 mile run to cherno is the worst :) I dunno man, you all seen this before? it was freaky stuff. Edit=OH re read your message about heathy status.. yes it was gone right away. -
PC no longer good enough to run Dayz. What upgrades could I buy to play again?
sneakydude replied to nufc1985's topic in General Discussion
I have to disagree.. You can get a great buy once in awhile. Most refurbs are checked over and diag if being put on the market from a Microsoft refurb agent. I know I have been in the business for 30 years. as for a new tower. Asus board, GIGAbyte, MSI (aim for Asus Pro quality). I5 or better, can be an older cpu i7 s1155,s1156, or s1150. New I5 or better, 16gb ram, HDD 1tb, or SSD 256 aim for the ones I have just purchased Samsung 850 pro's 256 or better. There is options such as liquid cooling that will help but a quality CPU fan is required for gaming now. Stock is just that high temps... As for a video card anything 760ti 4gb or better is what you should aim for. I would find a quality builder, or someone that is good at building, as warranties are important. You do not have to over clock jack, just use stock for now. Run down i5 Quad core, Asus pro board, 16gb ddr3, 1tb hdd or SSD is better, gtx 760 ti 4gb or better video card. What more is there to say?? prove is in the pudding. -
OH my gews, we have a chart for everything HAHHAH Your XXX man hahah

My guess is that, when the server is reset it may redistribute the items around some, but the majority of non looted items will or should still be in the same spot. So if I picked up a hat from the coast, it may redistribute somewhere else on the map. If this is the case, I would look at splitting the loot economy to 4 separate areas, so that 1 to 4 having its own loot economy independent on itself instead of having it take from the coast, and redistribute up north way away from the normal spawning locations. This way you can find a box of matches so you don't freeze to death. Instead of reading from 1 big database, and randomizing its tables, I would push for it to be independent on each quadarant. This way the coastal areas would have to repopulate every 15 minutes-30minutes then move to quadarant #2 and repopulate there. This may save on server loads for people in those areas. In theory this would work, but what demands it would have on the server is unknown by me without having that ability. So even though a server may restart in 4 hours, or 12 hours it still is within the ranges of those times to repopulate each quadrant. You still have all your criteria's in place such as how much to spawn, what items are available. This is most likely being worked on after the majority of bugs and items after finished. I wouldn't put too much effort into it, knowing how it works because they may have 9 ways to handle loot distribution right now. Either way fishermen on the coast looted up the cities and your forced to move into the grid and find suitable loot to survive. Bandits have taken over the coastal areas and are robbing people blind that are left behind.

All good here, played last night some and this morning. Seems to be ok for fps. I was even in rain etc.. How many on server? maybe a time frame is worse then other times? I dunno

DayZ Standalone Base Building is almost here! How do you plan to use it?
sneakydude replied to DR. IRISHMIKE's topic in General Discussion
Was thinkin the same DL. It would make great territory wars with other clans on private servers. 4 or so clans, all fighting for base rights, taking over multi locations... Would be loads of fun if we had enough people. -
OH the trumpet has one, right on. Ive looked at quite a few deer stands, and tree stands but I am having issues finding one. Longhorns, Rangefinders, B95, Bino's etc.. and I know its just me looking because I played odd hours to run a gauntlet check. 1/50 me. I got lots of smoker heli spawns, few nice items... too many guns now.
-
What did you guys think of the .61 updates? Especially the sounds. https://www.twitch.tv/rtxrm16/v/75619397 I rather enjoyed it with the sounds, the 500m to the 30m on the mp5 Good things a coming!!!
-
OH this one is for the Dev's. Will this new sound engine, repair the sounds on the client? Example, so we can actually hear the sounds? Not like a Axe swinging, and someone actually shot near us or at our feet into the ground? Stirring up even dirt.
-
Thanks CA :) What nobody likes the new sounds?? I was rather happy I can distinguish the distance of the MP5. I am looking forward to see what the AK sounds like and the mid range sniper rifles

4GB RAM users. Do you have stutters in the game when in cities?
sneakydude replied to bokeeN's topic in Troubleshooting
Memory is a huge thing for any PC. 8gb to 16gb is a good jump too but the 4gb to 8gb helps. C2d CPU's are going to struggle soon if not already with the render. I would suggest trying to get a newer board, cpu and that. i5 cpu quad core. The 750 might do ok for awhile, 40fps-60fps at most -
The Melee combat....Worst shit i have seen in any game.
sneakydude replied to Evilsausage's topic in General Discussion
Ah crap wish I didn't buy it so late. All I was seeing was 1 or 10 people playing from the server numbers. I gave up worrying about it. But they don't take the game down for some reason? -
See the problem is also they had to recode the render. The bugs took a huge backdoor until the render was perfect. What use would it be to fix the bugs if the game needed a huge boost in the graphics engine. Now they will hash out all the bugs one by one. I think we really don't know what steps they plan to take. I just got back too, and so far I am very impressed with .60. If you look at the feedback tracker I spammed the shit out of it again with bug reports. NP on my side, I see everything. Yes the infected are not exactly perfect, but lets be honest here.... they are starting to move and react much better then in the past?
