Xrinaphobia 10 Posted August 17, 2012 Hello folks!(NOT ALL OF THIS IS TRUE, SOME BITS OF IT ARE MADE UP FOR DRAMATICAL AFFECT. But for the most part its real.)A few of you might remember me from this thread (http://dayzmod.com/f...in/#entry333922). I was asking about Green mountain, being quite stupid back then.So curiousity got the better of me a few days after that thread, and on our way past GM, I told my friend about it, and said there was vehicle spawns, to make him come with.So he did, and we ventured up.The first time we went up there, I was instantly hit by Graphical Artifacts. We thought nothing of it, I returned to the foot of GM, and my friend pushed on to check it out. Ten minutes later, a lot of gunshots later, he returns with nothing, but a lesser amount of clips. We leave, and think nothing of it, my hopes of anything spooky destroyed.A week or two after that, we joined a different server, and I pursuaded him to come with me a second time to investigate the place. We got near it, my friend was slightly ahead, and reported 0 artifacts, as I neared, I also had no artifact problems. Green mountain was now in my sights.We entered, he led the horde on a goose chase, whilst I checked out the tower. Nothing at all on top, I decided I'd stop and have a look around on top. I looked around from the top, zooming in on the nearby forest and fields, then looked at my friend, who was still evading zombies. He was growing impatient, so I took a few of the horde out from on top of the tower, and then climbed down, determined to help him escape.I gunned the rest of the horde down as they chased him, easy enough.As we was leaving, my screen explodes into graphical errors as we pass the main gate, I can't see anything, and it takes a few minutes to get us on the right track out of there. And as I was leaving, I was sure I heard static.My final encounter up to date.Today, about 9 hours ago.Me and my friend, who had just got the game, was hitting the deer stand near GM, when I had an idea of actually going up and checking it.I didn't tell him anything about it, not what spawned, or my past experiences.As we was drawing near, he was hit by Graphical Errors, he tried to push through them, but couldn't.I told him to return down to the bottom and wait for me near the road. He said okay, and headed back down the hill.As I drew near, I tried to crouch run, but I was spotted quickly, the entire horde started to chase me, I dashed for the gates but couldn't open them.I doubled round and managed to open the gates, almost causing me to get Zerg'd by the horde.My quick thinking led me into the tower, I climbed to the top, "They'll come up one by one and I'll kill them! :D" I though to myself. Lolno I was wrong.Instead of coming up. One sat at the bottom of the ladders, and the rest stood under the platform.Were these zombies...smart?Was it GM keeping them alive?Did GM cut me off from my friend?Dundunduuuuunnn.

shadow_moses 50 Posted August 17, 2012 Take a radio with you next time its really creepy. Its an uber rare Item.Also for the artifact issue Hold the Left Shift key down and type -flush. You can also tone down your graphic settings and it helps too. There is a you tube video posted about the Radio Tower and how to set your video settings so the artifacts dont happen as often.

Xrinaphobia 10 Posted August 17, 2012 ^ That.I've done the flush trick many a times when I get hit by Graphical Artifacts, sometimes it works, others it doesn't. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Cronic (DayZ) 35 Posted August 17, 2012 I find changing either the Anti-Aliasing or the shadows up & down in the Vid option helps for a while. It seems to be only certain areas. GM's one of them Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
waffen-79 32 Posted August 17, 2012 yeah.. about those certain areas:Stary SoborChernogorskGreen MountainBerezinoBalota(sigh) Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
.Ender. 42 Posted August 18, 2012 glad its not just me...but it is absolutely terrible. At night you cant even go in Cher or GM or anything because its so distracting you cant even see. you can only run away or look away and hope youre not attacked or running into something.so annoying...but im sure it'll get fixed at some point. at least i know its not my higher end graphics card or PC...thats abit reassuring.

omgwtfbbq (DayZ) 1069 Posted August 18, 2012 (edited) Yeah maybe it wasn't such a good idea for me to do this: because THIS started happening:http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=MPPLavSTMf4&feature=g-uplOH, the daring life I live. Stay away from Green Mountain, my friends. Nothing good comes of it. Edited August 18, 2012 by omgwtfbbq Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
