Vertisce 158 Posted August 23, 2012 Please...for the love of God and all that is Holy...if you can't be 110% certain that you have a fix and it will be deployed with the next update, PLEASE remove the dead soldiers causing the graphical artifacting. Just delete them from the map. They are not integral to the game...we will not miss them one bit. I promise we won't miss them. They don't even do anything useful or contribute to anything. Just make them gone so we can start having fun in the airfields. I know this is an alpha test but it is pretty damned hard to play/test anything when it is completely unplayable in certain areas due to an unnecessary item causing a horrendous graphical error that cannot be easily fixed. There are 50 fixes out there...not one of which works for everybody and not one that has worked for me and many many others as of yet. So please...just remove them.Thank you. 9 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Fitzkrieg 129 Posted August 23, 2012 Hate to break it to you but hes focusing on the standalone and not the mod. I mean I 100% agree with removing them because their just, eh, we don't need them. But i'd prefer he focuses on the standalone. better for DayZ. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Erik (DayZ) 61 Posted August 23, 2012 Hate to break it to you but hes focusing on the standalone and not the mod. I mean I 100% agree with removing them because their just, eh, we don't need them. But i'd prefer he focuses on the standalone. better for DayZ.He should indeed just focus on the standalone. And honestly, things that might look easy to us could actualy be a huge pain in the ass for the developers. The fact is that we are not game developers (at least the most of us) and should just stop coming up with ideas like Vertisce came up with. The developers do what they think is best and all we can/should do is deal with it. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Vertisce 158 Posted August 23, 2012 (edited) Sorry? Look where? Reddit? I've never bothered looking at Reddit and seeing as this is the official site and forum for the mod and game you would think HERE ON THIS FORUM would be the place for it to be. Not Reddit.Thanks for the tip though.Oh yes...tried that...didn't work.This isn't a fix about what fixes what though. It is a simple request to just remove the dead soldiers unless a real fix has been found. It is NOT hard to remove the objects causing the error. There aren't that many and it is a simple map update. We all know what causes the issue and we all know exactly where the objects causing the issue are located. Edited August 23, 2012 by Vertisce Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Baelethal 102 Posted August 23, 2012 Do we, though. Are we 100% certain it's the dead soldiers? I've tried numerous fixes and I'm still getting those tears when there's not a dead soldier or body in sight....I'm still getting tears from time to time off the wire, building edges, and debris on the roads.

redsh1rt 24 Posted August 23, 2012 http://www.reddit.co...for_nvidia_gpu/Rocket has stated a user has found a fix. Please look before asking.You'd think such information would be on these very forums. Mind you the devs seem to spend more time on Reddit than in here, although I suppose you could hardly blame them.

Vertisce 158 Posted August 23, 2012 They did promise to continue supporting the mod while they work on the standalone. I don't mind if they leave the mod in it's current state so long as they fix the one thing making it entirely unplayable. Hackers and duping are one thing. An easily fixed graphical issue is another.

Vertisce 158 Posted August 23, 2012 (edited) http://fr.twitter.co...461040856694784*facepalm*We say that if it is a fix that Rocket thinks works then it needs to be here on this forum and not on Reddit so you give us a link to a Twitter post that links to Reddit...I am in awe. But hey...it is ok...while I would love to see a fix that works for all, ultimately the fix needs to come from the devs and the easy fix is to remove pointless objects causing the problem that nobody will miss.

PricelineNegotiator (DayZ) 25 Posted August 23, 2012 I'm pretty sure he would have to roll out a new mission for all of the servers if he were to delete the dead soldiers. SO IT TOTALLY ISN'T WORTH IT. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Supposedly someone found a fix, but again I forgot to state that this is a potential fix and is not for everyone. A fault on my own.Yes, I did see the other comment about fixing it with the ATI cards. Infact I saw this post on reddit a while ago. And clearly you didn't see the comments about how the fix for the ATI cards doesn't work, for pretty much everyone. The large majority haven't gotten it fixed with that supposed "fix", and it didn't fix it for me, either.I think these models that are causing the graphical glitches need to be taken out. OP is right, while it is just an alpha, we can hardly go anywhere near airfields, and any big cities or towns. It isn't up to us to try and find a work around, it is up to the devs to fix these problems, whether it be temporary i.e. taking out the models all together and fixing it and adding them back in, or just to remove them and never add them back in. Either way, I'm sure many, many people will appreciate it and want it to happen. Edited August 23, 2012 by 8-BitSpirit 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
dxze 20 Posted August 23, 2012 Try flushing a few times, works for me 9 times out of 10, if not I disconnect to lobby then reconnect. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Vertisce 158 Posted August 23, 2012 (edited) Flushing works until I take a single step. Then the artifacts appear again. Reconnecting does nothing.Again...the point being is that no fix is a fix for all...the only thing that will fix it for all is to remove the problem from the map or fix the map.

TheMachine 803 Posted August 23, 2012 Yeah, we should all have to check this forum, then reddit, then twitter for information on fixes.Taking the glitchy shit out of game or communicating on their own forums like any other dev team would just be a step too fucking far.

Thadeum 103 Posted August 23, 2012 (edited) Whatever is causing this graphical glitch MUST be removed ASAP.It's just plain crazy that this mess has gone through for so long. Edited August 23, 2012 by Thadeum Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Vertisce 158 Posted August 23, 2012 I really hope that the support and bugfixes are better and faster with the standalone. You would think something as big of an issue as not being able to see at all in several key points on the map would be a priority. We have had this bug for several weeks if not over a month now. Please get it fixed. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
