    Bug Tracker Attached Files Question

    you can only access files you have uploaded yourself

    all excited, akm and ak74

    Change doesn't necessarily mean improvement, but if you wan't improvements you will have to accept changes. You might not see it yet, but the inventory system has had some major changes, that we will benefit from, once the new UI is fully fuctional, implemented and designed. If weapon handguards break during this process, we shouldn't complain, especially not when there is a workaround.

    Sniping should be a soft skill

    They probably got removed because they didn't have an actual use (exept for silencers last Christmas). I still want them back, so we can all show our love for "Brian".

    Sniping should be a soft skill

    sniping should be a skill aquired by the player itself (not the character he plays). just add wind and 70% wont hit a barn at 500m in with the first shot. currently it's to hit targets, because (if you have the correct zeroing) most rifles will hit the point you are aiming at, without any bullet drift. if you have a good shooting position, it won't matter much how fast you cook your rifle, or how much recoil you have, because you should be able to hit a non-moving target with the first shot. so better change the ballisic mechanics and not the weapon handling.

    This suggestion will stop most Server hopers

    eeh, but if i'm not mistakem, crash sites are (since a few patches) independent from server restarts, they just stay in one position for about 3h and respawn. rest of the loot is persistent as well, so there is no need to join freshly restarted servers, exept to continue playing on it after the restart.

    MP5 vs UMP

    in .58 i use the ump, just because i had more luck in finding ammo for it (25rnd mags seem pretty common on military sites, while you need some luck to find mp5 mags at police stations, or police cars) loose or packed ammo seems to be less rare for the mp5 (9mm) than for the ump (.45acp) though. i would try to get a supressor and some optics (M68 or RV1 RDS not ACOG for close engagements) for both guns, and a buttstock and rail handguard for the mp (not nessecary since it can't take a weapon flashlight right now either way) both guns can take a weapon ghille, but since you don't wear it on your back, you don't need it. i don't think it would hurt using one if you have a spare one in .59 i currently use the scorpion smg, which uses .380 auto ammo, which is even more common, and i think it's a nice gun. unfortunatly i havn't found any optics for it yet (and don't think any exist for it at the moment), but it works with the eastern supressor. imo mp5 and ump are better than the scorpion, since the have optics avalible and pistol supressors are a little more common than eastern supressors, so if i had one of those with suressor and magazines, i'd replace my scorpion

    Welding / Welder

    you're right, i din't spend enough time on a proper google search, just took the fist nice picture i found without actually reading the description no give us the welding simulator, like the surgeon simulator, just harder i want to clean the parts from oil and paint, i want differnce between steels with higher ammounts of carbon, i want to heat up parts before i start and so on... nah seriously, having a welding mashine and rods would be enough, maybe differnt types of rods (bigger ones that just last longer or cellulosic electroses to work outside)

    Welding / Welder

    or give us one of those: thats a motor generator welding power source, and is used for manual metal arc welding on construction sites without electrical power supply. diesel fuel should be avalible in greater ammounts than acetylen gas, and welding rods are very common as well i think welding would be a useful addition to dayz, once basebuilding is implemented (you remember those large base towers? i don't think they'd be very stable if made from wood, and we all want only the best quality when it comes to a base, don't we?). apart from that, vehicle maintenance and modifications could use some more tools imho

    Status Report - 12 Nov 2015

    helis are the nonplus ultra of the vehicles, so they should be hard to maintain. and apart from the ammount of different parts, the quantity is up for balancing. and if you use it right you shouldn't get shot down so easily. as for the piloting errors, well thats one thing that might happen very often, especially if the fight physics/controlls are as hardcore as TOH. but i don't think that one hardcore advanced filight model will come as mandatory, maybe as an option. for example tha arma3 advanced flight model (or the flight model from TOH) is very hard to use without a joystick, and even though i think flying with a joystick is much better, not everyone can be expected to have one.

    will i regret buying this game ?

    Well, than explain why it's not please. Usually you would say profit has to be money, but profit can also be in goods. If i bought stockpapers for 25€ last year, and they'd be worth 50€ today, i'd have gained 25€ = 200% (=100% more than i had). Ofc, i'd only have the money if i sold them, but i might be a company i liked and i always wanted those stockpapers. So if i wouldn't have had bought them back then, it would have happend later. (this is propably totally ungrammatical, but i think you know waht i mean) Imho, but im not sure if thats actually the correct financial definition, profit is the difference in the value(P1;P2) of a good you own (might as well be money) that is gained over a period of time. profit=P2-P1 So if the value of goods i own raises over time, i make profit. Sure, i can't sell it because it's on steam, but i never intended to do so anyways.

    will i regret buying this game ?

    I always concider buying games on early access as an investion. Let's take Arma3 as an example: I paid around 20€ and barely touched it during Alpha and Beta (and didn't support the development with feedback either), but have spent quite a lot of time, since the official release. If i bought the game the day it was released, i would have had to pay around 45€. So it has been 125% profit in terms of investment for the early access phase. But this works only for games you would also buy for the full price. If you want a "petfect" game right away you won't be happy with DayZ at the current state. But if you can wait, or are willing to play the game in this state (and maybe even want to support the development with your feedback) you won't regret buying. In additon: your purchase is an investion in the idea of the game DayZ, as you help funding the realisation of the project.

    Dayz error -0x7797d968

    Remove all startup parameters and report back if the issue persists. Alternatively submit a ticket to the feedback tracker (feedback.dayz.com)
  13. HaseDesTodes

    Dayz doesnt start

    sounds a bit like battleye isn't updating/starting correctly. try to run steam as administarator

    Ideas for the next DayZ map

    It's very unlikely that there will be any such maps from official side, but you might be lucky and some modder creates the kind of content you want. If not, you could still create it yourself. That's a big advantage of DayZ (BI games in general).

    Do Your Part: The Guide to Feedback

    i mostly agree, but have some annotations. Yes, i totally agree: Use the search function, there are like 30% duplicates on the feedback tracker. BUT, don't use it only with one search item. If you haven't found anything in the first search, express it differently.For example: some people might use the term "loot" instead of "items". As far as Geez once (or twice) said, you should not use the -dologs parameter anymore, as it can cause crashes itself. So only use it if they tell you to. Sometimes crashes do not create dumpfiles, so to be sure, you submit relevant ones, delete old dumps (maybe save them anywhere else). Also keep in mind, that packing files can help you staying below the limit as well. It also allows you to upload not supported file types (like videos).

    Dayz mod, keeps giving me a BSOD

    i think "hot plugging" means, that some device is disconnected from the system while its running. i actually doubt anyone in this forum will be able to help you, but we still might give it a try. some things i'd like to know are: 1.what does the bsod error code say exactly? you often get to see something like this : *** STOP: 0x00000116 (0xFFFFFA80100984E0, 0xFFFFF880040CFDAC, 0x0000000000000000, 0x0000000000000002)*** atikmpag.sys - Address FFFFFF880040CFDAC base at FFFFF880040C4000, DateStamp 53507abbinteresting would be what your bsod says at the point mine says atikmpag.sys, as it can help to pinpoint the component thats causing this 2. do you overclock your gpu/cpu? 3. you said you clean your pc every month, do you plug out any devices during the progress? hot plugging might be caused by a loose contact afaik.
  17. i think basher is right interacting shouldn't work at this point, but i'd say packing the tents or moving them has the highest chance to work
  18. Servers are propably down for the weekly maintenance, check if you can play once they are done with it. As for the error message: if you have already verify the game files in steam, try to remove the file that causes the problem and validate again. If you haven't validated yet, do it. Steam->Library->DayZ->rightclick->local data->verify integrity of game

    New Weapons

    There are plenty of NATO weapons already, so there is no need to add any more western rifles (or there will more kinds of western military rifles than eastern ones). I personally liked the scar weapon family in arma 2, but don't see why they should be in chernarus.

    Status Report - 15 Oct 2015

    A few things that came to my mind lately: 1. Have you ever considered a version of DayZ with Vulcan API, or do you think the effort it would take isn't worth the ability to run the game on non-Windows systems, and stick with DirectX? 2. When you first revealed the new advanced base building, i thought back to my old days in Arma2 Wasteland and tried to figure where i would build my base. I remembered the problems i had with the sloping ground all over Chernarus. It was hard to find a good place with enough flat space to build a base without having to fight to much with clipping errors, transparent textures and such things. So i started wondering how this would be dealt with in DayZ. Will the building system be able to cope with uneven ground, and still produce pretty bases, or will the terrain be altered to a more basebuilder-friendly bersion, with flat spots that are not only on hilltops or in valleys? 3. Speaking of bases: Since bases will not be impenetrable, wich i realy appreciate, the best way to keep your base safe is to keep it hidden. Therefore the best places will be somewhere in the forrests. But the worst thing about building in a forrest, it that the trees block your buildings, or cause clipping, so a way to remove them would help. Is the engine capable of a persistent world (damaged town buildings/ fences, cut down vegetation etc.), is something like that planned (for post 1.0), or would it be to much effort? 4.Chris Torchia mentioned afair in his talk Surviving Success at DevGAMM 2015, that some documentation about content creation for DayZ was being created. Are you planning of releasing it some day in order to support the modding community? Edit: 5. Apart from outside colours, are there plans on more varietys for buildings, especially interior variations? I'd personally make buildings.empty shells and create a set of interiors for each room, and mix it up.

    Questions about firearms and ammo.

    Police car wrecks often hold some firearms (such as CR 75 or mp5). Since the wrecks respawn every 3h, they can be a bit tricky to find, but often provide guns

    Should I stay away from huge monitors?

    You might actually be able to test the effect on your system by setting the rendering resolution to 200% in the Video settings. Should take around the same performance, as it does to render full 4k.

    Kicking from Vilayer server IS ALLOWED.

    and now imagine, how much the server hosters earn with dayz servers if they loose their license, just because they didn't enforce the rules bohemia interactive set (you can be sure they have a contract) so gathering evidence of violations and the reactions could realy make a difference i hope BI is makeing some pressure behind the scenes, and reminds the GSPs of their obligations

    Ridiculous rain effects?

    i have played many hours with my m65 jacket during rain, and i don't see much of a problem as long as you don't camp all the time. keeping the body temperature up works fine for me, as long as i'm moving. if i have to stop for some time, i will cool down a bit, but that can be solved with a fire in 5 min

    2Pcs 1 Server ;)

    Try this: "Add -port=25007 into your DayZ launch options on one of the PC's. To do this, you can right click on DayZ in Steam --> Properties --> Set Launch Options and enter "-port=25007" (without the quotation marks). The number doesn't really matter as long as it's different from the other computers which will use 2302, 2303, 2305 by default. Alternatively, if you have access to the router settings and upnp is turned on, you can try turning it off, restarting router then trying again." (workaround stolen from Accolyte on the feedback tracker.)
