Seriously?

I'm not sure if you're being obtuse, or trolling. I hope it's trolling. I am honestly not sure what you're wanting me to say here, we posted a video... a VIDEO of the issue and you decided to be clueless about it? I mean, the issue is... the steering wheel turns, on its own without anyone in the car and the wheels aren't moving to show this has any affect.. so... I mean I don't know. You can get almost all the information you need to deduce the problem simply from the video, but I can break this down for you: 1. The cars not running, no sound of an engine, so it's apparently not running. 2. The steering wheel is glitched and moving on its own. This is shown fairly clearly because there's not a person seated in the drivers seat. 3. The turning steering wheel isn't having any affect on the car tires at all. Now, since you have moved this OUT of the troubleshooting area (which I am absolutely baffled why you did that, by the way) and put it in the LOL LOOK AT THIS area, I don't think the issue will ever get "Troubleshot" or even so much as resolved. For future reference, it's probably a good idea to ASK if it's meant to be humor instead of just taking an arbitrary stance on something. I mean, that's probably a good idea. Right? Right?? Right. Put it back in troubleshooting and try to stop posting in this unless you have anything constructive to add to the general rotation of the earth around the sun. Thank you, Happy Holidays. PS: I never said this happened before. I'm not sure if you were having a bad day or what, but I pretty much explained that it was persistence we were talking about having to reset the server for, not the car tire.

Nevermind, I reported this, hopefully it gets resolved. Delete this post if you would.

It's not, we're having to roll the server back to when it was working every single time in order for the stuff to stay. Don't know how much longer we can keep this up. ..... ok. We restarted the server, walked up to the vehicle and it was doing this. This is on a fragnet.com server. No mods, pure game. Current patch. Um... cloudy outside, low of 53. I just had a fairly large thanksgiving dinner, so my stomach is slightly full. Anything else I should add here? I mean this isn't the bug report area, I wasn't aware you had to give a full bug report here... not even sure why we have this redundant forum when we have a Bug Report area, and the Issue tracker. This is like putting white paint on snow.

Fragnet.com private server is having this issue. After maintenance we can't get anything to save, and anything new built doesn't save. We have to roll back the server to get things working. Would love to know a fix to this.

So recently myself and a couple of other people created a server that we were using as an organic roleplay server. Unfortunately, nobody else was following the guidelines we were using because, well, it wasn't a private server. So very recently we all migrated to a private server and we'd like to throw a general invitation to anyone else that's interested. Ignore the server in my signature, that's the old one, and it's public. The new private server is Bordertown - Organic roleplay. We have very few rules other then No hacking, No Duping, No Glitching. The server is pretty free form, if you want to roleplay as a bunch of bandits, then by all means make characters there, make a little backstory of why you're looters / bandits, and come on down. Our discord is located at : https://discord.gg/7QHAnWn Quite literally, we use the same rules as DayZ Underground mainly because they work fairly well : https://www.dayzunderground.com/organic-roleplay/ Feel free to pop in, say hello, and talk to the community. Hope to see you there.

Oh, also one other thing. If you can't make a character name or can't take the 30 seconds it requires to google the answer to how to change yours, don't bother. I will kick every blasted person who can't figure out this simple requirement.

It's not a validation issue, it's a server issue. All steam clients "IN THEORY" should have been updated to the newest version that was launched this morning. The issue is, server hosts are not updating their servers and thus we are getting bad version errors.

From what I understand, you can't revert back. Unfortunately you can only wait for your server host to update their files so you can join. So, much like me, you're stuck waiting for your server host (I AM LOOKING DIRECTLY AT YOU GAMESERVERS.COM) to come off lunch/realize/do the jobs you're paying them for.

I current;y have a .cfg however if this is the case it may be from an old install. I am wondering myself where the files are for this because my sound settings are not saving on the current .cfg file I have.

So recently we all updated to .62 and that's really great however i'm having severe sound issues. The sounds like the wind, the birds, all the ambient noises are fine but things like zombies and zombie aggro and character breathing/footsteps are very soft and quiet. Gunshots seem to work fine, but nothing else seems to work like it's supposed to so I went to my .cfg file in the My Documents folder, I updated everything to 100 on the FX and I logged back in, no change at all. Is there a new .cfg file or something where we update this or what happened? I've already checked the obvious things like in game sound being low, my mixer being low, sound on the mixer being low. Teamspeak override and what have you are not an issue it's just THESE sounds in the game. Where they updated to be this low or am I updating the wrong file?

Yes, there is a release date and to say otherwise shows a bit of stupidity. If there were not a release date then they would have stopped development. As for the OP : The Dev's haven't stated when they are going to make a stable push for this as they are still tinkering with it. Just keep on checking.

Salted Beef. Since from what I understand, beef will spoil? I'm not sure if this is a thing or not but it makes since considering vegetables spoil. What if we were able to salt beef in order to preserve it longer after it's been cooked so we can keep it maybe twice or three times as long?

SVD normal spawn will be at a chopper crash, no exceptions. Anyone who says they found an SVD elsewhere is A: Finding someone elses SVD or B: a lier. Now you can find the mags pretty much anywhere and the ammo is fairly common so...

I Used to gamma all the time on the mod and man it spoiled me. full moon nights also spoiled me because I didn't even need to gamma. The current game of DayZ makes night time play very spooky (especially when playing with DayZ mod soundtrack on winamp) and I know it's gonna get me killed but im not turning it up.

Amazing idea #2 : (Realism) Wet wood, tinder, cloth, anything should not be able to be used as material for starting fires unless it is properly dried out. This makes things like dry bags and tents that much more important to have available or nearby. Furthermore, damaged dry bags and or tents should let the rain in and therefore cause materials in the tents to get wet. I am not sure if there is a system in game for being wet for too long to cause stuff to degrade, and if there is I have not seen it, however I would love to see this added to the game to add to the survival aspect.

Actually, yes. Much like eating a bag of rice in game, eating salt meat would dehydrate you greatly. I mean you can eat it, but you need to understand the negative effects of eating it as well. Granted, I would eat smoked or dehydrated food before I eat salted meat, however you have to consider the aspect of my character right now. I'm surviving on my own in the woods until this all dies down. My character on experimental sincerely thinks that the army, the government or someone is going to show up sooner or later so survive on what you can while you can. So with that said, setting up a system to smoke meat would require materials I don't have on hand and generally will take a while to do. Salting meat is fairly simple and does not require a lot of prep work to get it working.

.57 stable branch, helicoptor spawn south of VMB. Since this post I found another but it wasn't at a chopper crash and more then likely player dropped as it had no attachments to it and was without ammunition.

So, I am very aware that there is a patch coming in the future that will greatly limit the aspect of third person in this game and for that I am grateful. I wish there that there was more done to it, as I have tested and in fact I wish the entire aspect of third person was taken out of this game but if wishes were fishes. This thread is not a 'Look how much better I am thread!' or at least that's not what was intended, it's more of a hope I can convince people to try out something that they probably have a 'justified' reason for. I've got my reasoning as to why I do what I do and it's my hope that after reading this that maybe at least one other person will do it too. With the upcoming .58 patch you will no longer be able to third person over most walls in the game due to the aspect being changed drastically. You can look around corners to a degree but you can't look over tall walls and such quite like you used to. For me, I applaud this because there are so many times where I grow tired of moving onto the NWAF or some other area of the game and having to assume constantly (and almost always be proven right) that someone is third person on the fire station on some wall, at some building... something. It greatly diminishes the enjoyment of this game knowing I have to remove some aspect so players can do something with game mechanics they normally shouldn't have access to. I am a big fan of people who stream first person, or shoot video in first person because I consider first person a cheat which in all honesty, that's what you're doing. SO many times I watch people stream / record this game and I immediately turn it to someone else because they're using third person and in truth I wonder who will be around when they completely remove it (if they completely remove it) With the coming changes to third person I challenge the players of DayZ to stop using it until the next patch. Ween yourself off using the third person aspect because in truth you're going to lose it and your gear with the coming patch, why not start doing it now? With everything I say, I want to show you a few videos to try to dissuade you from coming to use this and gamma correction to play in the game. First vs Third-Person in Arma 3 (and DayZ) DayZ SA - Hunting the hunters He makes a much bigger argument then I do, and it is my hope that in the future out of the 2% of people who play this game and read these forums... at least 1 - 3 will change with the argument and start learning the game in a much more difficult environment. Thanks for reading, and good luck.

Stating stupid facts about CS:GO is quotable. You're absolutely right. CS:GO is the first ever tactical FPS that was successful. Not Arma 2, Ghost Recon, Operation Flashpoint, or Project Reality the BF2 mod, Dragon Rising... no, no, no. They never did tournaments, so they're obviously shit. Truly done with this thread now, if nothing else Eltherimp, you've made this amusing to read. Keep on fighting the durp fight.

They're dropping, i've found one..... key word one. I found one M4 but after that I haven't found any others. No attachments and nothing other then Aug at the chopper crashes i'm checking now. I'm not sure maybe the drop rate is super rare or something or they're on the same spawn rates as batteries?

I know I said I was done but this thread but this is more thank you, I needed a new sig and this one seemed worthy.

The interesting thing is that I do this all the time on Experimental... especially at police station loot explosions. Those will always, always have a mine somewhere in that mess... so I leave it there, armed of course. Lately due to being an absolute jerk I take any mines I find and then happily place them at chopper crashes because it's amusing to watch server hoppers blow themselves all to hell due to greed.

The original topic of this was - Come try something new. That's it, that's all it was. The rest of this came out of nowhere. I'm actually done posting here because my mission was accomplished with the first post.

See, you're the first person to make a valid point I can agree with. Yes, I don't feel the buildings are sized correctly to allow proper vision over them. I can agree with this because it feels a bit... weird having to stand completely up to look out a window which you would think you could see out of. And yes, motion sickness. Completely understand this as I have it. The best way to combat it for me is peppermint. Not sure how that helps but it does for me.
