Killed by 2 guys I played with for over three hours

[Killed by 2 guys I played with for over three hours]

Before you begin I GET IT, in this game you can't trust anyone..but this one guy going by the name of Mike ((2) is the killer im sure, first I died from a broken leg I got after his avatar lightly brushed mine in a door way, after begging me not to kill him, of which I gave mercy and even gave him supplies and asked to join with me, we then met another survivor who seemed to be cool, that guy then after 2 hours and running up to the hills of Elektro and building a fire and getting ready to cook meat decides to kill me.

Wish this game had some way of contacting other players cause who spends that amount of time and then kills you..Again I get this is DayZ, just never played a game like this in my life before..

They should add in a function to offer Bounties on other users so if they Whack you, you can offer a bounty on them to get revenge. lol that would be cool. Obv it should only be for someone that killed you and not some randomer as that would open up massive TROLLING

[Xbox 360 Xmapper Presets Created for Day-Z]

I seen someone else's thread about using the xbox 360 controller for this. Upon reading that thread I noticed 90% of it was people flaming him so I am expecting that here. This is for the small percentage of people interested.

I have created an X-Mapper profile based around DayZ. I will try my best to help other's use the presets but, I do not plan on making a full tutorial on how to use it.

You will also have to change some options in the actual ARMA 2 configuration to have full compatibility.

Overview

=======

Set 1 (Default/Starting set)

Left Trigger = Right Click Mouse (Set 2 While Held)

Right Trigger = Left Click Mouse

LB Button = Q

LB Button = E

Left Stick Movement = W,A,S,D

Left Stick Click = Shift Key

Right Stick Movement = Mouse Control

Right Stick Click = Alt

D Pad Up = V

D Pad Down = O

D Pad Left = K

D Pad Right = B

Back Button = Numpad 5 (This is my hotkey in FRAPS to take screenshots)

Start Button = G (When pressed goes to Set 3)

Y Button = ;

B Button = R

X Button = Scroll Wheel Down

X Button While Held = Scroll Wheel Up

A Button = X

A Button While Held = Z

Set 2 ("Dead Eye" Settings)

Everything is the same as set one, except in this set the mouse sensitivity has been tweaked so that it is slowed down for aiming.

Set 3 (Gear/Inventory Set)

This set is tweaked to help you navigate the inventory. This is by far the hardest part to use with a controller. One for the lack of development of the gear section on Bohemia's part and two remember this is a computer game.

So everything is the same as Set 1 EXCEPT:

Mouse Sensitivity = VERY HIGH

D Pad Up = Arrow Up

D Pad Down = Arrow Down

D Pad Left = Arrow Left

D Pad Right = Arrow Right

Start Button = G (When pressed takes you back to Set 1 & closes gear)

Back Button = Esc Key

** FAIL SAFE

I added a fail safe to this Set that will always take you back to Set 1. As I have been playing I realized that sometimes I just click close with the Mouse or I have used the Esc key. When this happens you are still in Set 3 which is not optimized for playing at all. When you notice your Mouse sensitivity is EXTREMELY high just click the RIGHT STICK IN and it will always take you back to Set 1.

Right Stick Button = Set 1 (Fail Safe)

Now there's all the bindings. Here are the options that must be changed in ARMA's controller settings to be fully compatible with my configurations.

Here is the values from my profile config file you can just edit yours and paste these in if you want. I guess this is for advanced users.

Copy and paste this between:

class ControllerSchemes

and

revMouse=0;

CONFIG VALUES

--------

Option ----> Controls ---->

First click the Controller button at the bottom and Disable the Xbox 360 Controller. This is so that we do not use the in-game controls for the controller.

Next change these settings. I will list the Action on the left and the new binding on the right. If I write [REMOVE] then delete whatever binding was set there.

Stand Up ==== Double Tap X (Should show 2xX when set.

Walk or Run Toggle ==== Left Shift

Walk or Run Temporary ==== [REMOVE]

Compass ==== [REMOVE]

Compass Toggle ==== K

Watch ==== [REMOVE]

Watch Toggle ==== O

Freelook = Left Alt

Center Look ==== [REMOVE]

This should be all of them, I did not document them as I changed them so if you find an issue post here about it and we will work it thru.

Also if you notice after you have changed an option there is RED TEXT you must scroll down the list and find the action it is interfering with and delete it. I'm sure I missed a few of those too.

So Overall here is the actions binded to the buttons

Left Trigger Tap = Iron Sights

Left Trigger Hold = Zoom In

Right Trigger = Fire Weapon/Select Context

Left Stick = Forward, Back, Left, Right

Left Stick Button = Toggle Walk/Run

D Pad Up = Jump

D Pad Down = Toggle Watch

D Pad Left = Toggle Compass

D Pad Right = Binoculars

Back = Screenshot Hotkey in FRAPS/Steam (Config your settings for this)

Start = Pulls Up Gear/Inventory

Right Stick = Mouse movement

Right Stick In = Free look

Y = Change between Primary/Secondary weapon

Tap X = Show Context Menu/Navigate Down in Context Menu

Hold X = Show Context Menu/Navigate Up in Context Menu

B = Reload

Tap A = Crouch

Double Tap A = Stand Up

Hold A = Lay Down

LB = Lean left/Roll left

RB = Lean right/Roll right

**When you press Start to pull up inventory it switches to Set 3, to navigate the inventory first move arrow to inventory items and click one. You can now use the DPAD Up,Down,Left,Right to navigate/move items. NOTE if you use dpad to move item left/right you will have to then move the "selector" back to the middle "item" and then you can move up down left and right again.

Example=2 Cans of beans on dead body you want to move to your pack, you would click on any inventory item in the list with the arrow, then you would use DPad to move down to the can of beans. You would then HIT the Right DPad to move the ONE can of beans to your inventory. You then have to hit the LEFT DPad to move back to the "middle" you will not see anything change but you will be in "middle". Then you can hit RIGHT Dpad again and it will move the second can of beans.

Maybe if Rocket reads this, this can be changed??? Seems like a bug.

I have just been using the Right stick as if it was the mouse. It took a while to get used to but, its decent. Good to get in and out of inventory but for managing your inventory just go back to your mouse and keyboard.

Hope this is enough information for you all. Enjoy!

I want some feedback/suggestions so we can make this work "perfectly" with Day-Z!

Dude I've been tweaking my xpadder settings for days but these seem like they would work better than mine.

Thanks for taking the time to do this and not getting put off by the flaming tards.

I've played games for years, am studying a game development degree at uni and I'm a Games Developer so I have a little practice with games in general but like one of the DayZ web developers said this game is not just an FPS etc it is so much more.

Some parts are perfect for a controller and others the mouse and keyboard by limiting yourself to one or the other you are limiting your gaming so try both and all and choose which YOU find best.

Again Thank you keep up the good work
