Crimzn Craze 0 Posted September 3, 2012 It's at 4:30, I played through the night and saw my visual indicator light up around 4:30. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
mangozapp 46 Posted November 30, 2012 Just been playing on a public Chernarus server v1.7.4.4 after reading this and it was complete darkness at 4:30am (dayZ time) with stars and just two-tone silhouettes with gamma right up. At about 6 vision began improving with sunrise (sky beginning to show blue) at 6:30 after which I had OK B&W vision with gamma right up, I could turn the gamma down to normal and see properly at about 6:45 (no night-vision goggles). So, I'd say without night-vision, you're going to be in trouble if you meet another player before 6:30 dayZ time. I checked all these times on my in-game watch because I'd just read this before logging in.I think daylight begins to fade at about 4:30pm with darkness around 6:30 so I reckon it's set to an equal 12hr day/night cycle.

It was also still somewhat visible at 10 pm on that same server earlier. This was a public hive server. DayZ has a varying day/night cycle just like earth.

dallas 5195 Posted November 30, 2012 DayZ's day/night cycle follow ArmA's ingame calendar. The moon follow a lunar calendar too.It depends on the specific date. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
