Ultimate Guide to Fix Lag in DayZ Standalone

[FragV8 1]

Hey guys, I don't want this to turn into a spam or a urge to gain viewers. All I want is to bring awareness that there is hope for DayZ performance wise. So today I present you the Ultimate Guide to Fix Lag in DayZ Standalone. Hopefully no one takes this post in the wrong way, I'm just trying to help out everyone that are having these lag issues. Thank you for reading my post. Here is the video.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

This post will be updated frequently based upon adjustments of the game and configuration settings.

 

 

Ingame Method Settings:

1. Objects - High or Normal (Players seem to be invisible from a distance with low) *thank you flygamer1*

 

Configuration Method Codes:

1. sceneComplexity=200000;
2. shadowZDistance=100;
3. viewDistance=1000;
4. preferredObjectViewDistance=800;

These can be found in your DayZ Profile in your configuration files (Documents>DayZ)

 

My Computer Specifications

GPU - AMD HD Radeon 7770 OC GHz Edition 
CPU - AMD Athlon II X4 630 Processor 2.8 GHz 
RAM - 6 GB (stock) 
System Type - x64 
Case - Dell Inspirion 
Operating System - Windows 7 Ultimate 
HDD - 1TB

 

As you can tell you don't need to run the game on the highest settings to make it look good. DayZ looks decent even with the lowest graphics. Also you don't have to have the best computer in the world to run the game decent, with these steps I showed you in the video you can hopefully play DayZ decently and more enjoyable!

What do you mean by this? The same video? Because this is my video that I released 2-3 days ago. This is the only post that I made about this video.
