Tatanko 5591 Posted February 19, 2015 (edited) Good Thursday to you, ladies and gents. I've decided to document all of the billboards in Chernarus in one easy-to-reference place. I also have an idea for the Suggestions forum that revolves around billboards, but I don't want to post it before I finish documenting. What I need from you folks are tips; I don't know where to look for some of these billboards. I know I've seen them before, but some are more common than others and I just can't remember where some of them are. If you know a definite location where I can find any of these in particular, please let me know: -Sahrani (http://i.imgur.com/oeP5h.jpg) (EDIT: done)-Woman Holding Frying Pan (http://i.imgur.com/IwFaKJp.jpg)-Kids Eating Ice Cream (http://i.imgur.com/pyvUiMQ.jpg)-Alkohol?! (political ad) (http://i.imgur.com/BNsQC4R.jpg)-Recruitment ad (not to be confused with "Escape from Kolgujev") (https://bertyandmangotimes.files.wordpress.com/2014/03/2014-02-10_00010.jpg) I have every other board well documented, and the ones on this list I have seen before and translated and everything. Can anyone point me in the right direction? Edited February 28, 2015 by Tatanko 5 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Death By Crowbar 1213 Posted February 19, 2015 Isn't Sahrani down near Kamyshovo? Or I think along the road north east of it along the coast. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Death By Crowbar 1213 Posted February 19, 2015 I almost wish there was a Google street view for DayZ. It would be pretty neat/fun. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Mookie (original) 799 Posted February 19, 2015 I almost wish there was a Google street view for DayZ. It would be pretty neat/fun. I swear I remember that there was such a thing...a few months ago. Damned if I can find it though... Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

nillie 30 Posted February 19, 2015 Woman with frying pan is south of the Elektro railway station. Look for where the 3 tracks converge into one single track leaving Elektro. There is a railway crossing ahead with a pub next to it, and the sign is in that area 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Tatanko 5591 Posted February 19, 2015 Thanks for the replies. About the StreetView thing: there was such a thing. I believe someone was doing it as a project. Don't think anything ever came of it, but I think you were able to look at a limited area (Elektro, for example). Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Tatanko 5591 Posted February 19, 2015 There was the IRL one http://imgur.com/a/tkH9L/.Interesting! I haven't seen that one, actually. I believe the one that I (and Mookie) are referring to was an in-game style versus real world photos. It would be similar to using free look on an empty map, but this also included street names and everything a la StreetView. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

All I have seen is the squad view from DayZ TV a street view would be interesting/time consuming I would be interested in seeing it.

Tatanko 5591 Posted February 19, 2015 All I have seen is the squad view from DayZ TV a street view would be interesting/time consuming I would be interested in seeing it.Definitely. In my opinion, it wouldn't be worth doing until the game is released (or close to it) because in the mean time it could be in flux with every single update.

Death By Crowbar 1213 Posted February 19, 2015 Definitely. In my opinion, it wouldn't be worth doing until the game is released (or close to it) because in the mean time it could be in flux with every single update.Those Google street view cars (*cough* survivors in V3S's *cough*) would have to retrace their steps and screen grabs every time a location was changed. However, I'd be the person trolling the images for that one of a bunch of dudes attempting the human centipede in pink dresses! Too bad the dev's haven't added a mask like that horse mask, those are always funny when they show up on Google street view. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Death By Crowbar 1213 Posted February 20, 2015 Do you have this one? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Tatanko 5591 Posted February 28, 2015 Do you have this one?Not sure how I missed this... Yes, I do have that one though, thank you sir :) Still need 4 more! I'm going to head to Elektro to check out "Woman With Frying Pan", but the other three I don't have definitive locations for yet. Signs I still need to find:-Recruitment Ad-Alkohol?!-Kids With Ice Cream I actually did find Kids With Ice Cream in Svetlojarsk, but it's on the side of a building that practically never faces the sun so it's in the shade and harder to see :( 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Cap'n (DayZ) 1827 Posted March 1, 2015 Do you have this one? TRIVIA time! That's Alexander Baranov. He's the ex prime minister of Chernarus. He was executed after insurgents took over Chernogorsk in Harvest Red. I'm full of useless shit. 3 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Lord Roro 19 Posted March 6, 2015 Hey ! Was hunting for a boar when suddenly.. Mogilevka ! Did anyone check for the woman holding the pan ? 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Tatanko 5591 Posted March 6, 2015 (edited) Did anyone check for the woman holding the pan ?Yup! Found that billboard in Elektro just as described. Lighting was poor though so I didn't take a shot of it yet. I need to go back and get that one, Kids With Ice Cream, and Alkohol?!. I appreciate the tips. Thanks to everyone who has helped me locate these. I'll grab all three this weekend and finally make my new threads :) EDIT: Wait a minute... I still need one more. The army recruitment ad.

Can anyone point me in the right direction? Lol I've been screenshotting every billboard I see since I started playing... I think I may have found all of them. I have no idea where they were though, I've noticed there are quite a few repeats across the map. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
