Mouse doesn't work on this game altogether but when I tab out it works fine (possible bug)
SmokeyFTM replied to YouMadJoe's topic in General Discussion
There is a fix you have to go into control panel on your PC/Laptop and change the text and icon size to 100% medium -
Yeah if someone came into the area and killed the players who can't shoot that would be shit, maybe if the players affected can't die instead then if a player outside the area shoots you can get into cover and you know where the shot came from. All of this would be a pain to add to the game for the devs at the minute priority has to be keeping the game running decent for everyone, i remember when the mod came out it was great how we could try it through the early stages and report bugs n shit just like were doing with SA, just wish there wasnt so much fekn crying and refund demands, thankfully we've had this forum all this time because the steam forums are full of wankers

Maybe a 60 second timer where the guy logging in and any players affected cant shoot or be shot and a warning showing you someone has just logged in your area and 1 for the guy coming in so he knows he logged in near players, would give everyone a chance to get into cover and be ready to fight or move away. Better than getting killed from a room you recently cleared and the guy logging in might not be hostile so he gets the chance to move away if he wants, ive logged out at stary in a hurry before and took 20 minutes to get outa the area because of snipers i heard soon as i logged in. With the server hopping problem it would be better if you had 1 character to 1 server, that way if you are up north with good gear and a friend just finished work and spawns in fresh you could join another server and start again with them instead of having to go all the way back down to the coast, could work better for the community on each server too if they have the same people on everyday

How do i turn off predictive text on my iphone 5?
-
What system are you running it on? you can find the config file and change max frames ahead lines both to 1 and try changing your view distance to 1600 see if that helps. You might have to right click the DayZ folder go to properties and untick the read only bit first to be able to edit the config
-
Yep unless you were in a server before the problems started you can't get in until steam fixes it, just do what i do when i can't play DayZ and watch someone else play it http://www.twitch.tv/sacriel

I had the same issue and also used disinfectant a few times, after 10 minutes i was healthy again, i think it just takes time to work I have been having trouble getting into servers the las half hour the same reason as others keeps saying server full click restart and connection failed hope the team can get it fixed soon here's some :beans: Ok so if you cant get in a server keep trying looks like were just waiting on steams authentication https://twitter.com/rocket2guns

Yep same problem here, although my brother has also bought the game and his cursor moves with the mouse but with mine i have to hold down the left mouse button to move the cursor which disappears from the screen until i leave go of left mouse click, its made it a pain in the arse to change my settings and move or use items in my inventory as i keep clicking the wrong shit. That being said im still having a laugh been waiting ages for this and am more than happy to support it in the early stages as i was with the mod.

Each to his own i think, everyone likes different shit and most get comfy with a certain thing and wont change no matter what, ive tried all 3 and IMHO Dxtory is only a lil better than fraps because it doesn't hog the pc as much, and shadowplay is great if you leave it on manual otherwise it constantly records and can slow shit down just as much as fraps.

If you were ever lucky enough to play this server back when it was up its back now only a few dayz i think but its the same setup as before, PvP start with the M4A3 CCO. End message

I've updated to 1.7.3 joined a server (GB500 1up-gamers) and in the lobby ive got that annoying steam message blocking my join option where it says press shift + tab to discard the message, so i did that and its still there so i pressed enter instead... BOOM, you have been kicked by battleye script restriction #67 i think it was. no problem i havnt done anything wrong i'll rejoin, straight in no steam related nonsense but after 2 minutes i see a message on side from admin "not going to run any scripts"? i asked who? he said i had just triggered a script restriction so reply or be kicked, i explained what just happened as i 1st joined and got kicked when i hit enter in lobby then he kicked me? wtf did i do wrong please anyone?

I thought the first season was really good, but lately there's 2 many pointless conversations and not enough action or any progression with the story

Can someone answer a noob question? Can I download multiple Maps?
SmokeyFTM replied to fiyerfli's topic in New Player Discussion
Yep you can play on all the different DayZ maps any day of the week, you could try a few hours of each all in 1 day if you wanted . A really easy way to install them all is DayZ commander if you havn't already got it. Remember the standalone ( DayZ game) when its finished and released will be on the Chernarus ( just DayZ) map but with extra buildings, areas, Weapons, vehicles and all that good stuff. So it would be a good idea to spend some time getting to know your way around that one -
Ive been surviving present day DayZ for ages just taking each day as it comes, of course i'd love to be able to grab a piece of the future, see what lies ahead, but i dont. I'm sure whatever it is will be the dogs hairy nutsackI can understand why people would want to jump straight into the new versions to see whats what, with dogs and such being talked about for a while, after 6 months travelling Chernarus i just hope i get to take a well earned shit soon, is that in for 1.7.5?

DayZ commander not keeping up with arma 2 beta patches?
SmokeyFTM replied to DarkNinja (DayZ)'s topic in DayZ Mod General Discussion
I think the owner waits until he knows the patch is working and there are no bugs. DayZ Commander wont bring out new maps straight away either until a few servers have had them up and running and the community is behind it on DayZ commander forums asking for the new maps etc. A good way to go imo- 1 reply

DayZ Commander will help you out mate, its got a filter so you can take out non official (private) servers, the official servers will start you with the proper DayZ gear but you will encounter hackers unless you find a decent private server with good admins or a whitelisted server will probably be your best option

dayz still wont work! :( (pictures)
SmokeyFTM replied to [email protected]'s topic in DayZ Mod Troubleshooting
It always says a file or 2 failed to accuire or something with steam everytime i've validated i wouldn't worry about that bit. Have you started operation arrowhead to the main menu after validating? In DayZ commander have a look in the settings at the boxes for the steam version about replacing files you might have to check that box or not, mine doesnt work when i check it for some reason i just start it with DayZ commander -
Quality news, finally. Im expecting to see the average life expectancy to drop on the home page now their characters must be on some long dayz, but may their names forever remain at the top of the survival list, eye of the tiger fella's

No problems im running it on the i5 3450 and gtx 650 so you should be good, make sure to have a look at the fps help posts on here and reddit. Video Memory - Default Textures - High Terrain detail - Nomal Object detail - Normal or low (see what works best) HDR - disabled Vsync - Disabled All the above options are what i turned mine down to so my graphics card wasn't heating up too much, since i downloaded MSI afterburner i can run DayZ on higher settings than what i've listed as that programme turns the gfx fan speed up to keep it cool. So, you should be able to run it on medium settings with what you were going to buy, but if you upgrade your graphics card you could get better quality at a higher frame rate.

Your most testostorone-induced moment in DayZ.
SmokeyFTM replied to critanium's topic in DayZ Mod General Discussion
Getting killed at Fallujah airfield then finding a bicycle peddling back onto the airfield blasting bad to the bone through direct comms, killed 2 bandits in the bunker and 1 on the firehouse before i was dropped. -
You should try DayZ+ for a more hardcore experience untill the standalone comes out, the zombies are a lot harder you can be killed in 6 hits from one. Also some features in DayZ+ that the majority of the community like could be in the standalone such as the construction of bases/defensive positions and the extra weapons. Theres no AS50 or M107 there either and i think the CZ 550 has a higher chance of spawning
