Are you sure your saving the vehicle and waiting atleast 2-5 minutes for the server to save to before leaving? Could be the cause or your just really unlucky. CRUSADER

Yes if you save the tent again after dying then the items and the tent will not despawn. But you still have to periodically return to the tent and mess with the items and save the tent for it not to despawn. Hope I helped, CRUSADER

No you have to have both ARMA II and ARMA II: Operation Arrowhead on the single steam account to use the DayZ mod. Its cheaper and you have to get ARMA II: Combined Operations for DayZ to function properly. Hope I helped, CRUSADER

Ok, you must of been doing something that would give enough reason to the Admins to ban you. Now I'm not saying all Admins are angels because they're not but 9/10 times it for a legit reason the 1/10 is rage bans. But in either case find out from them what proof they have, if they have none then technically speaking they have no right to ban you but it is their server so they don't 'have' to unban you, you can join many, many other servers so unless your content on getting back on that server I sugget you just move on and leave the Admins to rage on. If this is a common occurance with the Admins actions will be taken to inform the server owner that their Admins are abusing the Admin functions and penalties with have to be given. Other than that not much you can do but move on. Hope I helped, CRUSADER

Ok, to sum up quickly this is not directly client-sided but can be fixed (temporarily) by the client. First you need to face in the direction of the graphical artifact(s) then disconnect from the server and exit the game and reload the game and server and the artifact should be gone (I tested this). Reason why this works because it reloads everything including game files and most importantly map data. Secondly you could change the "Video Memory" through the options menu to something that its not currently on (eg: High > Normal), in theory changing this will 'reset' the video memory because it has to compensate for the lower (or higher) memory allocation and thus reloading the mapping data and ridding you of the graphical artifacts...temporarily. I've personally defragmented my files, though not proven yet to fix (temporarily or permanently) should improve gameplay like FPS and system speed but mainly because of the recent DayZ updates it just relocates the associated files so will make DayZ run more smoothly because your system doesn't have to go searching around any longer than it needs to for the files it needs because its now all in the same corresponding location, on the disk that is. After update 1.7.2.5 graphical artifacts should hopefully be eliminated from DayZ, should being the operative word so just keep your hopes up and maybe we won't have to keep using temporary fixes. Note: I've been informed by a user of the forums that there is an old ARMA II bug where if 'Video Memory' is set to anything other than 'Default' then ARMA II doesn't use that memory which could be another reason why these grapical artifacts are appearing BUT its not been proved and these graphical artifacts have only been appearing since 1.7.2.4 so is doubtful this is a cause, but none the less can be tried as a possible temporary fix until 1.7.2.5.

Well this normally happens after you pass out and your character is still moving in the direction you were going before you passed out. The way to fix this is two possible ways: First, go into the controls options find the move backwards option and the keys that should be binded are (*S* and *DOWNWARD ARROW*) now unbind both and rebind them and click OK then go back in-game then that should fix it. Second way is to just button mash W, A, S and D then that should stop it to, I know this works because this is how I fix it when it happens but both work because I've done them both.

3 Hackers are on UK 129 and killed me. They somehow found me from an unbelievable distance (shooting at me from a rediculous distance, 1 click +) then I got totally out of there sights, then two seconds later they were in the same building as me, first I thought, how the fuck did they get to me so quick, two how the fuck did they instantly know which building I was in ( three accessable buildings, apartments) and they kept saying 'we know your in there' then they killed me after one died and got back to me in two seconds (this being not over exaggorated, teleporting is the most plausable excuse). While I was in the building, hiding, I did not move so they couldn't of heard or seen me but they still went exactly to my position. I have no proof just warning people that join UK 129 and this was at the apartments surrounding the hospital in Cherno. CRUSADER

Not really, adds a new aspect to the mod and should make your more wary when travelling, for that if you think your hidden in the grass your not because theres a guy with a M107 TWS aimed at your face. Makes you want to stay in the cover of buildings (if possible). CRUSADER

You know the trick is to killing someone quickly with a weak weapon? Shoot them in the head! Every weapon in the game is one shot kill to the head. CRUSADER

It can only be changed by a Dayz patch, server hosts have no control over this.

Good possibilities, and if you got randomly teleported with your gear its a good chance you were a victim of a hacker but luckily got away. Also probably not best to tell people where abouts your camp is, you know bandits are sometimes persistent. CRUSADER

He/she was trying to make a pointless and stupid joke, just relax and don't give people like him/her any attention and soon they will go away. CRUSADER

I'm sorry, a certain amount of proper english and grammar are needed, you did not pass this. Please retype your question because I and I guess many others have no idea of what your trying to ask. CRUSADER

A possible fix for this is to mess around with your inventory like moving items around waiting a couple of minutes (so the server can save your character) then leave the server through aborting function. If that doesn't work put the most valuable items in your backpack (ammo you want to keep because it seems to be only happening with miscellaneous gear/items) and the backpack should act as a secondary save or a safe save if you will. Possibly placing items in your backpack then putting them back into your active inventory could sort this bug out but is unproven, as is the rest of what I've said. Its a possibility you can try because you have nothing to lose just make sure you have enough space in your backpack when swapping items around otherwise you will lose those items because the backpack has a glitch to. Hope I helped, CRUSADER

This could be because if the restart happened very soon after changing the load in the vehicles it could be possible it wasn't saved even if you used the 'save vehicle' action. Just like the server has a lag on the save feature the same applies for vehicles. After multiple server restarts it could be possible that after each restart you need to save the vehicle otherwise vehicle contents will be wiped. But this is not proven just a possibility. Hope I helped, CRUSADER

This depends on how good peoples computers/laptops are. So people may experience severe FPS drop when placing HDR quality to very high and and frame drops (frozen frame) when Video memory is set to default. Hope i helped, CRUSADER

This will be fixed in the next update, if you would like to read the confirmed updates to the next full update go here: http://dayzmod.com/forum/index.php?/topic/52196-pending-update-build-1725/ After this update, Graphical Artifacts that you have been experiencing should go away. Hope I helped, CRUSADER

Surely there is a way for server hosts or Dayz team to disable specific commands like this so hackers can't use them?

Yes a bit of an error on my part. It depends on what part of the loading screen you was killed on, if you were killed early on then your body will disappear. If you were killed later on (near to being able to move around) then your body will still be there. This is because more of your player has been initialised and loaded. Hope I helped, CRUSADER

If the zombie spawns are broken then of course it will be fixed either by a hotfix if its really urgent or a full update. Just sneak in like your meant to and no more zombies will appear because the zombie count has not changed (in that spawn area), if you do get seen and chased, run into a building to take advantage of the AI pathing error (zombies can not run indoors) and wait until all are inside and crouch run out a different door (if possible). Hope I helped, CRUSADER

Don't bother, because your corpse will not be there. If you die when on the loading screen your corpse 'disappears' and the (friendly fire) message appears. Reason for this is because Dayz is counted as a CO-OP mission. Hope I helped, CRUSADER
