Hi Rocket, this might get asked a lot..but is a fix coming for spawning in the ocean/wilderness/desert? It's heartbreaking playing for so long only to spawn in one of these places, with all your items in the bottom of the ocean.

Or for now, is there some way to reduce these occurrences? its happened mostly from servers crashing and going to join another. Thanks.

[NEW] Significant loot rebalancing

What exactly does that mean?

Hi,

got a link for this new server file?

old link doesnt work and cant find in usual places?

[Powell (DayZ) 734]

So let's talk tents. The issue: Even in a flat, open area, it is very difficult to find a place to put the tent down. Any area that seems flat and is empty of things like trees, it doesn't work. You pretty much need to find a VERY EXACT flat area in like the middle of a field, which isnt very stealthy.

I lost good stuff and gained compass and maps and stuff, and the only thing i did was log out, watch WWE RAW on tivo, eat some dinner and log in.

Sixupdater working for anyone?

[direx1974 0]

I had the same thing.

Had nothing. Logged out. When I came back I looked at the same gear you did. Thought this was a glitch and no bug. May be not ...

Sorry to ask this, but correct me if i'm wrong: both 1.7.1.3 and 1.7.1.4 were released in a single update/file?

I say this because i'm seeing some different servers with "1.7.1.3" and "1.7.1.4" in their names.

@Zorkmid

Six-updater working fine for me, i had @DayZ r36 a few minutes ago, now updated to r37, if that's correct.

Dude same exact thing happened to me. I thought I started playing in my sleep and changed my gear. Glad I wasn't the only one.

No 1.7.1.4 was released almost immediately after 1.7.1.3, the files are seperate.

[mariush 50]

Well I think the server got fucked when around 1500+ people tried downloading the file at the same time.

For admins/rocket : Please post a torrent and leave only that for the first 30 minutes to one hour, it will stop the mirrors from getting so hammered.

The 6 updater doesn't work for me personally - the rsync or zsync or whatever it's used freezes (i see about 5-6 of those launched in Task Manager but they don't do anything)

ps. I might be able to donate up to 5 TB of bandwidth each month on an 100mbps link, have a dedicated server in Holland. If there's interest pm me. I know you're asking for gigabit links and terabytes of bandwidth but considering they're offered for free maybe you'd reconsider that.

[Rellik_pt 7]

ok can we have mediafire or some good filehoster next time to download, the mirrors cant handle and the torrent is not avaibable please

Guys please read the first post:

Please do not post messages of support or abuse. Please only post your feedback from having tried the update, or any serious issues.

I've deleted at least 20 posts from this thread already. If you are posting about something else than constructive feedback after having tested the update, you are not only wasting your time but also my time, because your post will be deleted.

Those who are unable to download from the official site, I've put a mirror for torrent here: http://the-tour.org/downloads/games/dayz/latest.torrent

Zombies continue to spawn in buildings as well as be able to see through/ aggro through walls.

[heathy87 1]

logged in lost my ak74 kobra + my g17 (replaced by a makarov)

also getting hit, i had 3 blood spurts and i wasn't actually bleeding.

[/quote']

OK,

Would you like to pay for that so that we can take that route? Those routes cost money. DayZ for each release goes into terabytes used in bandwidth and that is around per hour.

[Mona 0]

well i havent realy tried much cause when i logged it and i was crouched running i atracted alot of zombies, now crouching is like how running was before and running is way to lousy, did anything change about this?

[Rellik_pt 7]

tonic since when cost money to put a file in a filehoster? you dont need to be premium to download in mediafire or even zippyshare. (miss you megaupload)

[Blasty 0]

I agree with the notion that zombies aggro through walls does not seem to be entirely fixed. Keep up the good work, love the mod!

[lunaraitic 0]

Hmm since the update im getting this message every time ( No Entry 'Bin\config.bin/cfgweapons.itemHatchet)

And i logg in debug forest or an open sandy area not able to move or anything.
