New with Few Questions

[zapbrannigan 9]

Interesting mod... I'm slowly learning, but its frustrating.

1. How do I move the debug monitor? It is covering the entire ear and some of the eye icon...

2. Switching throw-able weapons; Going from tin cans to flares, etc... ???

Keybind guide said "F", but that always ends up throwing the first time i press it... Has gotten me killed more than a few times.

3. Buildings? - Died so many times attempting to find buildings to enter, while it seems like 90% of the buildings are just for show... without knowing which buildings I can even enter, it's a pain walking prone for 20 minutes around town.

4. Community- Is the entire community nothing but trolls/bandits?? Starting with no gun is enough of a pain, but almost everytime I have seen someone, there is nothing but a bullet in my head before any words are spoken. Yay!, you earned a bandage and a flashlight... and now you have one bullet less. The other time, a group was kind enough to let me live.... trapped on the roof of a building surrounded by zombies, with alas... no gun.

Bump for some help.

1. Player at a higher resolution as far as i know you can't move it your self

2. F doesn't throw anything F is to switch weapons are you sure you're not clicking fire when doing so?

3. Look for open doors / transparent windows

4.There are still decent people out that, try communicating with the people you see.

The debug monitor is covering up so much because you're playing at like 800x600 resolution. Recommended solution: better computer.

You can easily tell if a building can be entered by whether or not you can see through the windows. Can't see through windows? The best you'll be able to do is find a loot pile in the entryway of a house if it has one (where the front door is).

The community is generally survival oriented, which may have something to do with this being a survival game and all. But look for established groups that coordinate with voice chat such as Team Speak, they're your best bet for co-op.

[b'] I have no idea, dont think it is quite possible

2. Switching throw-able weapons; Going from tin cans to flares, etc... ???

pressing F switches between weapon\throwable like cans grenade and flares, notice that if there is no more cans, it will automaticly switch to the next.

3. Buildings? - Died so many times attempting to find buildings to enter, while it seems like 90% of the buildings are just for show... without knowing which buildings I can even enter, it's a pain walking prone for 20 minutes around town.

youll eventually notice, and its prefared that you dont go into towns. just a friendly tip.

Actualy it is proven that the most of us are not bandits, you will find a lot of friendly generous and helpfull people out there, but it seems you are looking in the wrong places, forget about major towns, stick to the deer stands and farms, after you get into a group and armed, you can think about visiting a town or two and maybe military bases.

Your format makes me want to murder other survivors

Not 100% sure this will work, but in Video options, there is a seperate resolution option for the UI. You could try trweaking that and see if you can get rid of the overlap.

I noticed now that I look that mine is now covering the ear too, not so much a bother for me but when your new you do need to see that untill your used to the different terrain and such.

Also does H button toggle the Debug monitor on/off? I think it might, I know it brings it back if It disappears lol.

FIXED IT!

For debug monitor fix...

go into steam/userapps/arma 2 and steam/userapps/arma op arrowhead and right click the .exe files (arma2.exe and ArmA2OA.exe) that run the game. click properties, then goto compatibility tab, then click disable scaling on high DPI settings.

your welcome.

I see this comment all the time. When are people going to realise this is a zombie apocalypse simulation game. It is every man for himself, we are all competing against eachother for items and renown. You want a game where people sit around and be friends, go play second life or something...this is a shooter, hence the shooting.
