Mos1ey 6301 Posted February 5, 2013 Use the F key to select your flares and then LMB to throw one. :) Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Fraggle (DayZ) 15720 Posted February 5, 2013 You're the dude that was having issues installing yesterday? Looks like you got it sorted. Nice one. Just a quick bit of advice, you should play through some of the Arma tutorial missions before jumping in. They'll take you through basic movement, driving, flying, shooting, basically everything you need. It means you can get used to the controls before jumping in at the deep end. Once you feel more comfortable you'll enjoy the game a lot more. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
herrjon 478 Posted February 5, 2013 Use F to cycle through your items, there should be flares after a couple, just make sure you switch back to your gun afterwards by pressing F again. I wouldn't advise using them though, unless you know for sure you're alone, but even then it's dangerous. Players can seen flares and flashlights at night literally a mile away. Stick to chemlights if you need to see things around you. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
