Abexuro 17 Posted January 12, 2013 So wait. Even terrain render distance is handled by the server? I would understand that zombies, players and loot would be server side. But the terrain could just as well be local, doesn't hurt anyone but your own performance. :P Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Clumzy (DayZ) 377 Posted January 12, 2013 They're doing this in the standalone, It's mentioned in Rocket's last tumblr post. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
RiggsUK 69 Posted January 12, 2013 View distance is limited on the DayZ mod, because it's an unoptimized alpha mod. Where the zombies have way too much data (5 maps) on them to run smoothly. Rocket couldn't create new models with less skeleton etc, not his fault. It wasn't essential was it. You can bet the standalone will push it back to ARMA standards as they will compensate loads not having to run AI on troops. Bring the sickness!!! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
ConflictPC 0 Posted January 21, 2013 Its the server Options, the admin will have to Extract the mission.pbo file and Extract it, then open it up and do the CODE for it, its not that easy. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
gingerwarlord 7 Posted May 21, 2013 Correct me if I'm wrong, but I've heard it said that this is due to ArmA 2 Free being used, instead of ArmA 2. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

enforcer1975 1111 Posted May 21, 2013 This is done for purpose. Once a man tried to snipe me (I was running in Elektro unarmed). But because of fog I managed to flank him, take an ak-74 kobra from his backpack and put an end to his hunt. LOLThat must have been a pretty miserable player...Yeah, it's locked in DayZ but IMO it stops sniper rifles from being completely overpowered and is a good thing, lol.If they would introduce an anti wannabe sniper system ( min. wind effect, the more the merrier ) they can have 20km view distance, i don't care.
