Which launcher are you using? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

kander 80 Posted August 23, 2012 (edited) Day Z CommanderRight, then you need to look down the left hand side and choose the icon that corresponds to 3rd person view. Click it green to make sure that only servers which have 3rd person enabled are listed. Anything you click red will filter OUT so be careful.While you're at it, it's worth setting up the other filters based on your preferences (nameplates, tracers etc) and things like full/empty servers and ping ranges.This should solve your problem.

mitch_howdie 0 Posted August 23, 2012 The server I am on has 3rd person view I just must have locked my enter key some how I have tried to double tap and hit num lock. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
kander 80 Posted August 23, 2012 Mate, you bought a computer to play this? That's extreme dedication. TBH I probably would do the same, this game is the nuts..I hope you end up in the camp that love it rather than whine about the bugs ;)Folk in the new player forums are generally pretty helpful if you have any questions.. It's maybe not the friendliest community but you'll find out what you need. Main forum tip - make sure you do a search, even if it's a quick one, before asking questions - duplicate threads are annoying. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
