TEMPORARY TROUBLESHOOTING TOPIC

[vikingscjs 0]

I just got SA and i have a very strange mouse problem.  The mouse is stuck in one position until i left click, and then it jumps to that position. It makes it really hard to click button on the main menu, and it is near impossible to use your inventory.

Ok I've got a problem here: 

Just downloaded the game and after a while my PC just keeps crashing.

 

Here are my specs:

CPU: AMD FX 8350

GPU: AMD HD 6970

Ram: (A brand) (Don't remember the name but it's good) 8gb

 

I'm not a total pc noob so after the first time that my pc crashed I went to event viewer to check what caused the problem.

This is what I saw at first:

The AODDriver4.2.0 service failed to start due to the following error: The system cannot find the path specified.

I couldn't find anything specific so I decided to update my drivers.

My current drivers are now: 

13-12_win7_win8_64_dd_ccc_whql

 

 

 

So I hoped that the problem would be solved, but it didn't.

The error went away, but my PC kept crashing and got another error back instead....

The crashes could occur in like 2 min while playing the game or after 30 minutes or so.

So it really seem to be random. I also messed a bit with the video settings, like putting some things on low/normal. (AA off)

To see if that might improve things, but it didn't seem to do much.

 

Hope someone can help me out!

 

 

Edit:

Yet another crash, this time I got an actual error report as my pc restarted:

Problem signature:  Problem Event Name:	BlueScreen  OS Version:	6.1.7601.2.1.0.256.1  Locale ID:	1043Additional information about the problem:  BCCode:	117  BCP1:	FFFFFA800B1A2010  BCP2:	FFFFF8800440BD88  BCP3:	0000000000000000  BCP4:	0000000000000000  OS Version:	6_1_7601  Service Pack:	1_0  Product:	256_1

Also forgot to add that I use Windows 7 Ultimate 64 bit SP1

(But the error report also says that)

In any menu in-game my cursor moves but it doesn't update the cursor on-screen until I click. Any ideas on how to fix this?

 

Nevermind, resolved the problem by viewing an earlier post.

 

To fix this problem you need to go to your desktop then right-click, select 'Screen Resolution', then click on 'Make text and other items larger or smaller', you'll then need to select 'Smaller - 100% (default)'.

 

That is how I fixed my problem, hope it helps.

I posted this problem earlier, but now cant seem to find the thread.

 

I have updated to the latest version 0.29.113822, but Steam doesnt recognise that I have done the update and is constantly forcing me to download the update even though I have it.

Reinstall of Dayz has not fixed the issue either.

 

Thanks in advance!  

[digitalprime 36]

GPU optimization, 

 

i7 2700k at 5g. 

780ti 

16gb ram 1600

 

The performance is better then arma2, But when in cities it drops drastically to 25-35fps but the game does not utilize my GPU. Only using 40-52%.sometimes lower.  

 

I know its alpha, But im worried it will stay like arma2 and never really get fixed so GPUs are used properly. 

[agentneo 337]

no Servers available in UK

 

All are constantly stuck at 40/40

 

Cannot play because the game company hasn;t brought enough servers for the amount of copies of the game, this has been going on three days now, how long does it take to add a new server ?

[Jakaali 1]

I have couple problems here, first I cant use forums bug report thing, when I try to log in it says "Your account may be disabled or blocked or the username/password you entered is incorrect." And my user/password are correct. Would be nice to be able to contribute the game.

And for second problem, Im not sure if it is intented but everytime zombie hits me I start bleeding. So is that normal or a bug?

[leeges 1]

It's dark during the day time. You can clearly tell it's suppose to be day time as there are no stars and textures appear glitchy. My flashlight works.

Resolved, killed myself.

Till you decide to rent one from one of the server providers for ( from what i hear) a rather hefty price. To be honest, the DayZ Mod was costing around £0.55 per slot and the SA is £1.55 per slot. Take about cashing in.....

can someone please tell me how i attach the weapon flashlight to my m4a1?? i see several streamers using it so i dont understand why i cant attach it, all other attachments have worked so far?? please help, it would really help out when its so frequently night time

[Cagouille 0]

So I purchased DayZ Standalone on Monday like everyone else and it worked flawlessly. However, the next day I wanted to continue play from where I left. As usual I came to the main menu after starting the game and proceeded to press the 'Start' button in order to join the last server I played on. When I pressed the button my screen suddently froze and after half a hour I went to taskmanager to see what is going on, the status of DayZ.exe was "not responding". I then attempted to kill off the program through taskmanager, but with no luck. I was forced to do a reboot because everytime I attempted to kill the running .exe it would just ignore it and keep going, but I would have the in-game cursor and not be able to press or open any other programs on my desktop.

 

After the reboot was done I tried again, but this time I chose to find a different server and went in to the server browser after pressing "Change Server". There were no servers at all so I tried to press the "Internet" tab on top of the browser and doing so caused another freeze exactly the same as above. The only way for me to actually play now is to join through friends by pressing "Join game" on their user in Steam.

 

I have managed to play occasionally by joining friends and so far I actually love it, especially the focus on survival! :) This "bug" is however extremely annoying as I am forced to wait for friends to start playing.

 

Hi guys, I actually have the exact same problem! Is there any solution? I'm looking around but I can't find :(

[grimsonfart 49]

Player's voices are coming over the VOIP regardless of how far away they are. I even heard one guy complain that someone was killing him, then I heard him talking all the way through his respawn so he definitely wasn't anywhere near me. And the I crashed. Another guy over at SimHQ says he had the same thing - heard someone talking he shouldn't have been able to hear, then CTD.

Haha, similar story here. I was running along the coast and i heard a phone ringing, then a guy starting to talk with his mother and then screaming that she wanted to talk to his dad. I ran around in circles trying to find this guy but i guess he was somewhere else.

[grimsonfart 49]

But on topic. My mouse is all wierd ingame. It works, but when i look around there is something stopping it from going as it should, almost like it lags a bit. I think its a mouse acceleration problem, as there is no way to turn it off ingame.

Swap out the default foregrip with an RIS grip and you can mount the flashlight on its rails.

[twinturbonet (DayZ) 294]

man, they should add books with "tips" in them on how things combine with each other.  That would make picking up books a little more useful.

Yea, I want to turn that off too.  :(

[Jakaali 1]

Okay, I can be attacked by other players but that wont cause bleeding at all (fist fight) but zombies still do every god damn time they hit me which is extreamly annoying, so are anyone else experiensing this problem?

And also what has caused me to die more than it should is starvation. I have my backpack full of cans (sardines, beans and pasta) but I cant open them because I dont have can opener and thoose are pretty damn rare since most of buildings has allready been stripped clean of suplies. So I would like to see option where you could use axe or hammer to break canned food open, ofcourse spoiling some food in proccess like 50% of that food would be spoiled.
It just feels so wrong when I can go medival on players with axes to live another day but if its can of beans, you dead man, you dead.

 

Also filling water botle from well dont seem to be working at the moment.

I can't join any servers, whenever I click on a server or join one of my friends it says joining game... and kicks me for connection lost or something. all my friends can play perfectly fine.

[Fflint 22]

1.) in some buildings (store) if you drop stuff there it disappear's guess it goes to the ground

2.) Sometimes if you swap clothing /bagpacks the whole item disappear's with all the stuff in it

you can open those cans with kitchen knifes or screw drivers and i really think it would be really cool if they ad that you can fill you water bottle with sea water right and then you just go a head with a  pot and light a fire or something so you boil the water and that would kill the bacterias instead of only being able to drink from wells

Most, if not all of the issues linked are related to the same issue regarding hardcoded keybindings.  You can NOT unbind fire from the left mouse button no matter what.  If you use left mouse button to move forward, you will ALSO fire your weapon(gun or melee).  You can not assign fire to the right mouse button, as it becomes unresponsive, and still remains on the LMB.  Despite editing the settings in the DayZ Other Profiles folder in my documents, and manually assigning RMB to fire, LMB still fires even though it only shows move forward bound to LMB.  This issue persists through inventory screen etc, where some players have issues with moving around and firing weapon while clicking on things in the inventory.  If you try to write a note, even with default controls, you will move around if you press w a s or d.  I am 98% certain all these issues are tied to the same underlying issue, so I recommend that these reports become merged. 

Somebody actually downvoted this.... what the hell?

I have two GTX560 2GB's running in SLI and it will only use one of them. It's maxed at 100% and the other is idle. :(

Agreed SLI needs to be implemented soon! I have a gtx690 and only 1 gpu running. my res is 2560x1600 so the other gpu is very much needed
