I don't even bother sneaking, just run into a building > collect loot > run out the other side or around them and back out the same door to lose them :/

Melee Weapon Quick Switch Help/Advice
SmashT replied to r4z0r49's topic in DayZ Mod General Discussion
There is no way to use existing reload animations (which work while moving) and basically force a reload when switching weapons is there? The weapon would switch instantly but then force a reload so you would still need to wait before you could use it, that's probably the closest you could get. -
Nah it was sent to Matt on the 6th. http://dayzmod.com/forum/index.php?/topic/141571-rolling-changelog/

1. Run both ArmA 2 and ArmA 2 : Operation Arrowhead once to complete installation. 2. Download DayZCommander from http://www.dayzcommander.com 3. Run DayZCommander and click the "install/update" button from the top menu. 4. Click "Install" next to ArmA 2. Wait for the download and install to complete. 5. Click "Install" next to DayZ. Wait for the download and install to complete. 7. Filter "DayZ only" from the dropdown box on the left and join a server, if you want to play other mods/maps you will need to install them separately via the install/update menu.

That's awesome, having barracks inside it seems a bit odd though.
-
Tick 'Hide unofficial' will filter most of them out, also hiding locked and filtering 'DayZ Only' is probably a good idea. Private hives have a cloud with an x in them.
-
Looks great, can't even recognise the area at all.
-
That's a common misconception, apart from a few Valve titles VAC bans only apply to the game the cheat was detected in. https://support.steampowered.com/kb_article.php?ref=7849-Radz-6869#vacgames
-
^ That too, despite BattlEye banning something like 150,000 hackers to date since DayZ launched.
-
People download malware and get their keys stolen, those keys are sold to hackers and later banned. Players blame BattlEye for banning them for "no reason".
-
They will be using VAC. There is no current plan for another anti-cheat, but I wouldn't rule out anything.
-
Yes, people are happy to pay for a completely broken game, that's been proven time and time again with other titles. That's a really disappointing attitude though and is the reason developers can get away with making terrible games, people will buy them regardless. Consumers need to start making smarter decisions and demanding quality instead of demanding broken games are released now even if they clearly aren't ready. Releasing a pre-alpha build would only result in the game being slammed critically, why would they want that?
-
Generally when people pay money for a game they expect it to at least run, in pre-alpha that is not the case. Updates often completely break the build to the point where it doesn't even launch.
-
I wouldn't expect there to be a steamless version at all, it's not just about the store, the game relies on Steam for everything, you need it to play. They dropped Gamespy for server browser management and now use Steams instead The game uses Steam for it's anti-cheat (VAC) Updates to the game are all done through Steam's delta-patching system. They are using Steam for anti-piracy and fraud protection.

Exciting times, even Gummy is satisfied :D

Public hive really isn't any better or worse than private hives in terms of hackers nowadays.

Melee Weapon Quick Switch Help/Advice
SmashT replied to r4z0r49's topic in DayZ Mod General Discussion
After watching the video, the animation is not to bad tbh. Is switching tied to a hotkey though or do you need to open your inventory and click on the button to switch because that is also going to add time. -

I'm not a fan of animations locking you in place so I'd probably prefer option 2 (instant). Have you thought about playing an animation when switching from melee > gun but instant when going from gun > melee? Another idea is to have no animation play but have a 2-3 second delay before it instantly switches. -

What ever happened to the community themed food items?

The models have actually been back in-game for some time now, they just changed the names. -

- Check DayZCommander is allowed through your windows firewall. http://windows.microsoft.com/en-us/windows-vista/allow-a-program-to-communicate-through-windows-firewall If it still doesn't work: - Try flushing your DNS (Start > Command Prompt > Type: Ipconfig /flushdns) If it still doesn't work: - Change your DNS settings to either Google's or OpenDNS, instructions for each are below: https://developers.google.com/speed/public-dns/docs/using https://store.opendns.com/setup/computer/ -
Interesting, no idea why it works for me then.
-
When I right click and paste the link as plain text yes. If I copy and paste from notepad yes. If I copy and paste directly from browser/youtube no.
-
Pasting as plain text works though without media tags. Alternatively you can post it into notepad and then copy paste it again and it will lose the hyperlink and embed.
