That's the way of things. It's an expensive hobby and a true "mutant pc" or "beast pc" will set you back well over 1,000€. A good GPU alone will set you back about 500-700€.

I have built myself an intel-based machine solely for gaming. This applies not only to DayZ, as most games are happier with Intel-CPU's. If you can find good deals you'll be able to build a machine based on the best CPU-performance available for less than 500€.

DayZ doesn't really like the whole AMD-affair, it especially doesn't use 8 cores at a time, which is your problem here. Most (not all, but most) games tend to like less cores with more power on each core, as they can't utilize more than 2 or 4 cores at a time with a real payoff. This will change in the future, but solely for gaming you may have gone the wrong route with a 8320, I'm afraid.

Please open a separate topic for your own questions.

And people thought Standalone would be self-explanatory.

DayZ Commander is discontinued for about 1.5 years now, DayZ Mod is available on Steam with a one click installation.

I don't know what you mean? The mod is still in ongoing development and you can actually already either create your own map or tie in DayZ Mod with existing maps, just see how Namalsk did it. And Epoch is doing it as well, it's just a matter of knowledge about ARMA 2 and scripting. If you do not know how to do that you should read up on it first anyway, as it's possible but not the easiest thing to do.

Evening everyone, as there seems to be a lot of confusion going on and a lot of people don't use the search-function I though I might as well gather all the threads I normally post when someone posts a thread that already exists or when a question has already been answered.

Three things that immediately spring to mind: I always hated that tie, but my wife bought it. It wasn't my idea to pay Ruby, always told Silvio it's a bad idea. Your full specs would be helpful, including load on CPU and network when playing.

Mind sharing how you fixed it, for others?

What version are you on and what version is the server you're trying to join?

Are you running an antihack?

Don't give that advice. Ever. Ever. DayZCommander has been discontinued by the developer for well over 1.5 years now; DayZ Mod is available on Steam, no witchcraft needed to play. Just install and launch.

You don't need the Beta anymore, infact you don't need to do anything other than do the following: Install ARMA 2 from Steam Launch ARMA 2 and close after hitting Main Menu Install ARMA 2: Operation Arrowhead Launch ARMA 2: Operation Arrowhead and close after hitting Main Menu Install DayZ Mod from Steam Launch DayZ Mod Play

Title changed. Next time, please be more specific than "how to use them".

You need to contact Steam Support, as you bought the game on Steam. Noone at Bohemia Interactive or on this Forum will be able to assist you with that, I am afraid. You can find the Steam-support here: https://support.steampowered.com/

Hello and welcome to the Forum. Please pay attention as to which section you're posting in, as you have posted in the Standalone section, whilst your question is regarding DayZ Mod. DayZ Mod is available on Steam, there's no additional Launchers required. Moved.

Of course VILayer has to use .pbo's as well and they are even accessible by the server-admin, the folder-structure is just different. If you want to learn how these things work, I suggest you do some reading up on how the entire system works, seeing as these are really basic questions. One way to start is trying to set up a server on your own computer and trying to join that and then change some things around, as the system is the same as on a vilayer-server, but it's easier to understand, as your folder-structure on your computer is already known to you...

Yes, it's being regularly updated, look in the "Official" section for more information about updates, both game and status reports by the devs: https://forums.dayzgame.com/index.php?/forum/136-official/ No. And it is strictly forbidden for, for example, server-owners to try to introduce any attempt of this and will be followed legally. Don't expect the game to work flawlessly at 60 FPS constantly, this is why it's still in Alpha. There are still performance-concerns, but it's being worked on at the moment and I personally have seen a lot of improvement over time. At this point in time there aren't many zombies in the game, if any. This is due to how the development works, but work is being done on the zombie-part to have them improved and in huge numbers - which is the ultimate goal of development. It is always worth owning ARMA 2 and its expansions, as the Multiplayer-Community is very much still alive. Whilst we're not currently pushing out updates for the mod on a regular basis, there are still a few very active and almost always full servers - and there are still other mods and missions and gamemodes one can play. I wish I could tell you something different, but it'd be a lie. The community is fairly aggressive and you will most likely end up being frustrated more than once, but if you do your best to be one of the good guys, good things will happen to you.

It would be good to know what is part of the serverstartup-routine. Be as detailed as possible. Simply saying "I doubleclick the exe" just won't cut it and is not how you start the server-instance itself.

More importantly you seem to be missing the entire serverside addon. Mind sharing how you're starting up the server?
