Jen (DayZ)

Calling all people who stream this game: Hola amigops. I have just recently started streaming DayZ and I believe I have found my stream settings in Xsplit. However, I get 10FPS while actually playing the game. I've been searching around the interwebz for the past few days and I couldn't find anything that helped me. Honestly, if you guys could just get me to 20FPS while I stream, I'll be a happy panda. Here are my specs: AMD Athlon ll X4 630 (P) 2.8 GHz Processor 6GB PC3-10600 DDR3 SDRAM (3 x 2GB, 16GB max) Galaxy GeForce GT 430 1GB DDR3 PCI Express 2.0 Graphics Card Here are my current in-game settings, Xsplit settings, and Nvidia control panel settings: In-game: http://gyazo.com/72e...9e56e741e088661 Xsplit: http://i.imgur.com/vAzeq.jpg Nvidia Part 1: http://gyazo.com/ed4...1f47bfa137b6b00 Nvidia Part 2: http://gyazo.com/ed4...1f47bfa137b6b00 Again, I get almost 0 lag on my stream, but in-game I'm pulling 10FPS in big cities. Say I'm in Prigo, I get an easy 30. Any help would be greatly appreciated, and my beans go to the fellow survivors who fix this. :)

Did you buy a Steam copy, or a copy off of some game key website?

Hm... I've never actually had that issue thankfully. You said you installed everything correctly? You bought OA, not pirated it? You ran both Arma II and OA BEFORE downloading DayZ? That's really all I can think of.. again, not my department. Sorry I can't be of further assistance.

Can you elaborate on the issues you are having? Like, what the errors are saying and such? Something about missing DLC isn't very specific. The only thing I know about missing DLC would be you trying to play on two accounts.. which I don't think is the case here.

Your processor speed is probably what's hindering your performance. I don;t believe 1.2 GHz is enough to effectively play the game. I have 2.8 GHz processor and I can barely muster 35 FPS.

Glad you got it working properly! I'll see you out on the battlefield. :)

Alright, I see some questions here, so I'll just clarify everything to the best of my abilities. You only need to purchase OA on your steam account and run it in order to play DayZ. DayZ uses the OA key for DayZ, not the Arma II key, so you should be able to play with just the $20 purchase of OA. Just make sure when you run it, you have both the Arma II and OA icons on the bottom left of the screen.

So I downloaded the PMC DLC for the hi-res textures and the story line. When I click on my shortcut to play DayZ, PMC is not listed on the side with the other expansions, even though it shows the icon on the bottom left along with Arma II and OA. I also don't believe I actually have the textures while playing DayZ. I have ran the DLC multiple times and played through he first mission, but to no avail. If anyone actually uses this DLC and can help me out, it would be greatly appreciated! Here's what I mean: The only thing I can possibly think of is the fact that I have Arma II Free, not the one you have to pay for. I highly doubt this affects anything, but you never know.

Trust me, you're better off just learning to use the mouse and keyboard. I tried to use the controller in the beginning and immediately faced challenges. Just suck it up and learn the controls; it takes a day at most to get used to them. Sorry if this sounds harsh, but I was in your same position and I learned with ease. Good luck, and see ya out on the field. :)

Hopefully a beautiful new patch while be waiting for me when I get home from work tonight. *Fingers crossed*

Whenever I try to compare the game with hi-res and without hi-res, I feel like I don't actually see a substantial difference in DayZ like some of these YT videos.. It might be because I have two accounts.. possibly? I don't know.. :P Maybe I'm just blind haha

Hey guys.. so I recently purchased the PMC DLC and fell in love with the high-res textures. However, I was only able to play on one of my two accounts with them. Flustered, I bought a second PMC DLC on the second Steam account, hoping this would fix it. However, only one of them still works. Both keys are c completely different, and here's what I tried in order to get this to work: - Log onto Steam 2 account, uninstall everything, reinstall Arma II, OA, PMC. Run everything, Export registry key for OA and PMC. -Log onto Steam 1 account, uninstall everything *again*, reinstall Arma II, second copy of OA, and second copy of PMC. Export both OA and PMC registries. I try to use the second account, and I can't get on, even though I have the registries reverting to the PMC key that *should* correspond with the second account. However, no go. Any ideas on how to get this up and running guys? I really just want these textures on both accounts, especially since I bought the DLC twice. Please leave if you try to troll, I made it far to easy since I'm tired and haven't slept in 24 hours.

DayZ with the PMC textures.. because you can do that. But I'm getting a weird error message every time I switch the registries to the second account, even though I purchased PMC twice on each Steam account.

Can we please find an answer to this? I've been searching everywhere :(

I installed PMC last night for high res textures while playing DayZ and I was having no problems. I log on tonight after I get home from work, and the first error message I get is from starting up the game. After I click okay, the game loads into the main menu where I'm greeted with this error message. Now, when I try to join ANY server, I get this (refer to video below): http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=vcdSjtwA03Y&feature=youtu.be Please guys, I'm desperate here. Not sure what I could have done to cause this.. but any help whatsoever would result in a mountain of beans!

It was working PERFECTLY fine this morning around 8AM. I then turn off the computer and go to bed. I come back on tonight and it's acting up. This just killed my night.. Any help out there, please?

That's the mod version. The beta patch is the one that's 95___ (three numbers). What are those last 3 numbers?

No problem! I'll try to search for one for you and post it here. What beta patch number are you currently running?

The best advice I can give is make sure both of your filter options are the same.. I know sometimes I can't see servers my friends do because I have something as silly as "hide full servers."

You know how you can go onto any server and your information (gear, location, etc.) is as it was on another server? The hive is basically a place where that info is stored, and a majority of the servers allow your info to be accessed and used. However, some servers make you start a new character just for that SPECIFIC server. If you go to another server, your info will not be saved.. it will only exist on the server you began on. Understand, kind of? tl;dr Find a server that makes you start a new character specifically for that server. I know a lot of DE's do, or just look for "non-hive" in the name.

Your best bet is to try and find a Non hive server and start fresh.. Doesn't look like you can play on any hive servers until you either glitch through he floor and die, or a mod resets you.

What are your video settings if you don't mind me asking? The second screeny looks so nice.

Hey guys. I had great video settings earlier, I tried to make them better, and silly me, I made them 10x worse. I would like some settings that won't make me have 15 FPS while recording, yet still has a decent picture so people won't immediately dislike my video. Here are my specs: AMD Athlon ll X4 630 (P) 2.8 GHz Processor 6GB RAM 1GB GeForce GT 430 If you need anything else, let me know how to find it.. still kind of a noob at this PC stuff. Thanks again!

Funny. Anyone? Really desperate here.

I bought it and installed it. Also, I don't think you read the entire post because I did have nice settings that got me decent frames. @Delta Sadly, it didn't seem to change anything. :(
