cintecian 4 Posted July 24, 2012 A friend and I were recently hit with a mass teleport hack and teleported way out in the wilderness. He lost his L85A2 AWS for no reason (which really sucks, we had just gotten off some players like 2 hours before), and we disconnected as quickly as possible. When we logged into a new server we noticed our in-game maps were not showing our locations (the blue dots). After running for about 45 mins in one direction we finally saw trees and eventually buildings again, but still our map won't show our position. So we have no idea where we are except for using road signs and things like that. We tried dropping the maps and picking them back up but no luck. How do we fix this?

Disgraced 1123 Posted July 24, 2012 Map position only shows if you have a map, and it's a server side setting generally associated with recruit servers. So, veteran servers won't show your location on the map. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
theg481 13 Posted July 24, 2012 In order to see your position on the map you'll need to be on a server that supports it, it supports it if it shows Nametags. If you download DayZ Commander you can filter on that. Or just look at the server name if it has Nametags ON in the title (Nametags = NT). Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

cyanyde 165 Posted July 24, 2012 He answered before I got the chance. :(But he's right!You first need a map, and even when you have one, your location only shows up on "Recruit" servers. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
