I was poking around the server .pbo file and came across this snippet in the mission.sqm file: class Item2 { position[]={-18688.303,376.65714,25929.211}; azimut=-17.083944; id=5; side="WEST"; vehicle="Survivor1_DZ"; player="PLAY CDG"; skill=0.60000002; init="this enableSimulation false;this allowDammage false;this disableAI 'FSM';this disableAI 'ANIM';this disableAI 'MOVE';"; }; Now I've been trying to figure out how to determine exactly which vehicle correlates to id=5. It doesn't seem to be arbitrary, but I can't find a reference anywhere else in the archive. If anyone has any idea as to where this might be located I would greatly appreciate it.

I'll take that as a sign of unconditional love then.

@ninjaholic Being a fellow Irishman myself, I completely and utterly support any and all shenanigans you may enact. You have my blessing.

Hopefully contests aren't against the rules (and that this is the correct subforum), as I couldn't find it prohibited anywhere in the forum rules. A few weeks ago we came to you with a new interactive map which has since proven to be pretty popular (over 150GB just in MySQL traffic this month!). Since then, we've been working on a way to share stories from your adventures in DayZ. We call these journals. Many of us love reading the stories the DayZ community puts out. Chance encounters, blood-pumping firefights, comical breaks in the tension, and even stories of humanity (if you can believe it). All of this comes together to make for an enthralling reading experience, even if you don't play the mod. So to get started, we thought it would be fun to give away some games to the best storytellers. Here are the games that are up for grabs: ArmA II: CO Trine 2 Fallout: NV Portal Killing Floor Amnesia: The Dark Descent Frozen Synapse (two pack) Just Cause 2 LIMBO Terraria Red Orchestra 2 - GOTY Farcry 2 - Fortune's Edition Garry's Mod VVVVVV Sanctum Audiosurf Company of Heroes Super Meat Boy Train Simulator 2012 (yeah seriously, choo choo motherfucker!) Plants vs. Zombies Important! All you need to do is submit a story here, and have it be in the top three most voted by July 30th, 2012 at 11:59PM PST. The first place will have first pick of two games, second place gets second pick of one game, and so on. If there is a large turnout, we'll increase the winner bracket to five places, so if your friends are good storytellers let them know! Everyone is encouraged to vote (we call these reactions)! Any vote you cast will eventually be tallied up and used to present the journals in a more organized way, kind of like categories. Conditions Only one win per person - you can still submit multiple stories Gifts will be redeemable through Steam Submissions after deadline will not be considered All entries must be original work Shenanigans will not be tolerated More details are in this news post. If you have any questions or comments about either the site or the contest, please let us hear them! Fantikerz (who'll you'll remember as the author of the original thread) will be around this thread as well to help answer any questions people might have.

@Tetsumaru Thanks man. We're glad everyone is enjoying the map. We've been working on all the great suggestions everyone has been sending in, so don't feel like they're anything but useful, because we do greatly appreciate the assistance.

Try a hard refresh as there should not be any errors connecting to the site now. If the problem persists feel free to message me on the forum or on steam.

We appear to be having ongoing server issues. We're working on sorting them out as quickly as possible and will have the site back up in an hour or two. EDIT: The site is up, it's just running slowly for some. This will be likewise sorted shortly. EDIT2: Everything should be fine now.

No one ever acknowledges the worker bees, only the queen. ='(

Technically it's not the official wiki since it operates as a separate entity from the actual dev team. It still is the largest and best however, and, as your signature points out, has been acknowledged by rocket. EDIT: Or are you endorsed as the official wiki now? I made my original comment based on assumptions and smokie's original post not 2 months ago. I was just poking around on the wiki and stumbled upon the old logo which even says Unofficial in it. What prompted the logo change? I recall seeing a post by Adam from around April saying that an official wiki was 'nearly finished'. Did they just drop it in favor of smokie's wiki?

We had several suggestions explaining where supposed cough "African" people were hiding from the fake coolguy@aol.com' date=' and while I don't suggest using that one (as I've marked the addy as spam) you could use sage@sage.com and I'll know not to reply with a thank you message. We plan on implementing this within the next few days (hopefully hours) as soon as Fantikerz finishes eating his ice cream (or coding CSS, not sure what he's really doing).

Thanks for all of the corrections guys. I'm still in the process of sorting through all of them and adding them to the map since there are so many and I can't stop watching how I met your mother (or so Fantikerz seems to think)

There's a balance between realism and being realistic. I believe it was Alone in the Dark a few years ago where you had to blink. That's what Square did; it made your character blink. That's an entirely unrealistic game mechanic and stupid to the point of ridiculousness.
