always when launching over the six updater it gives me the 3dengine build error, tried every seting with every beta ticked/not ticked/exes copied just doesnt seem to work for steam versions the six launcher does the job, just remember to close it when you clicked "launch"

Why do vehicles erupt in balls of flame?
ZomboWTF replied to nacrom's topic in New Player Discussion
well, thats the dayz damage modifications being made, you also break your bone and die horribly for falling a half meter but i think mainly the exploding of the cars is also there to show "you cant repair this pile of junk anymore" -
it IS the six launcher, i had the same problem, and this is why: The six launcher updates ALL servers (pings them, sees how many players are on, etc...) every few seconds, its automatically, and you cant turn it off so, when you launch the game over six launcher, close it right after that! it may seem weird but updating a thousand servers every 10 seconds creates a bit of load to your PC

Why do vehicles erupt in balls of flame?
ZomboWTF replied to nacrom's topic in New Player Discussion
cars DO explode, just because you never saw it doesnt say its just a movie myth gasoline+high speed+sudden stop+electric parts and stuff all over the place = boom cars often catch fire or burn out after a crash, even if its not as often since the cars get safer, but old russian military cars and a hundred year old russian civillian vehicles... yes, they ought to -
Why not spawn all over the map instead of the coast?
ZomboWTF replied to Soup (DayZ)'s topic in New Player Discussion
no, keep spawning to the coastlines, otherwise people will just spam respawn until the spawn near a location they want to -
* [NEW] Exponent driven probability introduced into visibility calculation ??? wut???
-
how about placin bear traps at the uper end of a ladder? sounds like fun to me
-
* [NEW] Exponent driven probability introduced into visibility calculation what does it mean? we are actually not visible from far when we wouldnt be visible up close? i often saw people trying to track people with ghillie suits in needle trees by walking further away, since leaves then despawn more and more and reveal the player
-
just get a lee enfield, get on that hill east of the firestation and take a decent shot to the head, lee enfield is best against players, two shots are a kill i guess? sniping in electro... lol i bet theres sooo much loot to get off those newly spawned players
-
what could possibly go wrong? (i bet they said that when building the chernobyl akw) no seriously, spam thos snipers spots with bear taps n' wire fence n' shit ima go cherno now

The Ultimate Zombie Apocalypse Weapon
ZomboWTF replied to Yeung-Jin's topic in DayZ Mod General Discussion
.22 is way to weak to get a headshot on more then 10 meters, at least not human skulls also, my axe is waaay better -
learn to play, i dont have this issues mate, seems to me there are enough people around running around in elektro/cherno the whole time or even NWAF and wondering "why the hell do i ge shot" well, dont be around the fucking pvp towns then, seriously if you cant live with getting shot, dont be around those areas
-
So, its known that in high populated areas or valued ones (NWAF,Stary/NEAF) there tend to be snipers in the hills looking at the hangars or other military spawns if more then 10 or 12 players what would you guys suggest to raid the airfields anyways? of course just running to the airfield will get you killed, and searching for the snipers is very hard (they often have ghillie suits, and hear you coming from miles because steps make noise without end) maybe try to lure them away?
-
that is if they have the M4 cco with integrated nightvision, if they have a rifle you can use the actual NV with, they will just shut it off and then see you(while running around with the torch) though, throwing a torch in the general direction of the airfield could actually work, just be sure to keep the spots where the loot is unlit, or they'll get ya
-
if you have a good primary with a reliable range, the pdw is good i guess (lee enfield against players works just fine for me) a good secondary for zombies is the pdw (plenty of ammo now that i checked it and one headshot kills a zombie like every weapon) or, if you find ammo for it, the M9SD is the perfect secondary against zombies
-
yes, you can even use mp5 mags afaik DayZ wiki: PDW ammo types: M9 mag, M9 SD mag, MP5 mag, MP5 SD mag, PDW mag, PDW SD mag, G17 mag g17 is dropping fairly often actually
-
has anyone tested if a m1911 or even a revolver kills a player with one headshot instantly? not actually sure about that
-
sure, on night servers where they have nightvision anyways, throwing flares around gives you some time, however unless you dont have nightvision yourself, you cant kill them basically, but how yould you go in order to kill them? @Soldier of Failure: What server are you playing on? my servers have snipers at the airfields almost every time, often stary sobor, too
-
for night actions, the M9SD, for day, the M1911 is my weapon of choice, has a good accuracy for a sidegrade the PDW can put out a hell of damage, but the ammo is pretty scarce and the accuracy is not good, only for elektro/cherno geruilla imo
-
I recently asked myself how exactly the spawn system works, since there are incredibly much spawns with empty cans/whiskey bottles: Do spawn points spawn new stuff if they aren't being looted? If not, this would lead to a surplus of trash and nothing left of guns n' ammo am i right?
-
yeah it was a temporary ban, thats still a ban in my eyes, also im not playing on that server anymore because my clanmates don't, i don't know first person what happened there, just heard everyone shouting in TS3 could also have been a big misunderstanding
-
i used to play at nl4 when something started with a clan member of ours, a clanmate joined the server and in front of him stood 2 guys trying to kill him, he killed both, and got banned from the server a few minutes later i dont play there anymore, just sayin'

US 104 Bans For Disconnecting During Fights.
ZomboWTF replied to ZeroGravitySE's topic in Mod Servers & Private Hives
the problem is that people might not disconnect on purpose, might get accused by people banding together and then abnned, or the admin doesnt like them, or someone gets shot while disconnecting and it appears through lag that he just disconnected BECAUSE of the fight the problem is that you cant prove if someone disconnected during a fight or just disconnected, the server logs dont give away that info, and banning is a free-for-all -
so? i also kill players near me i dont know to hinder them killing me, i once tried to be a friendly player but always died when meeting an other player, so i learned and kill other players now as far away as possible sure its not hello kitty online, but that actually adds to the game experience i even started to lay down all stuff i can fit into my backack in a hidden location and then go into a town, because when you die you can run there again
-
dwi: deal with it i played 2 hours, had some gun and got to stary, then all the three of us where sniped in 5 seconds i'm not complaining, but next time ill fall back and try to watch where that ass is sniping from, and chop his head off with my axe... mwahahaha well... yeah
