SurviveDayZ Mod - More Difficult & Extensive DayZ | v1.2

[Powell (DayZ) 734]

ok had a look at the SMK stuff, i COULD do it but it requires everyone to have CBA installed and my goal is to keep the mod by itself with no other addons because it will lead to more people having installation issues

it might not be worth the trouble to add...

In other news, I would suggest the servers that are currently up get more frequent restarts. It seriously starts to bog down after 2+ hours, to the point where if you log off, you lose 30-40 minutes of progress without warning.

yea i know and the mod is undergoing HEAVY optimizations to fix it

[stapo 188]

i just fixed the heli leaking fuel glitch again....

[evoxtom 142]

Thanks for looking into my suggestion Stapo. Shows you really put in the effort.

Any time line for a new patch\optimization fixes down the road?

[stapo 188]

Very Very soon, im just fixing up some other things then we are porting the whole mod to a different server package to greatly reduce loading times and ive also been squashing alot of bugs aswell.... but yea V1.2 is on the horizon

[stapo 188]

ok ive got everything working, now im just making a few tweaks and we should see a V1.2 with a complete server optimization tommorow

Great work so far guys with the changes and everything, but after my friend and I played for a while in the US server in became unplayable due to fps and network lag because of the zombies spawning, even cutting out our skype call. This happened only when zombies where spawning for us. Hopefully the Australian server is up soon and we can play again. :)

nice. I'm waiting for more radical changes involving gameplay, like zombies. That whole deal

[flygamer1 176]

what is server ip?

[ryahn 112]

You can search for them in game or look for them with servers.survivedayz.com

im sorry to say that the slow hard hitting zombies wont come for a while as apparently it will only let me set 2 speeds for zombies... 2 being walk/loiter and 6 being run.... and i tried 4 but they still run as fast as 6, so yea.

and the damage is a working progress as i fear we may have to re-do how zombies do damage completely as rocket has it running off chance which basically means the zombie hits/knockouts etc. are all random upon chance which makes it difficult to adjust.

but the V1.2 brings great improvements to performance all round and fixes Alot of bugs/duping etc..

AND CAKE!

I'm gonna miss my character...got lucky on a lot of stuff (found coyote in deer stand, shit was cash)

[Powell (DayZ) 734]

Also if you're gonna make people spawn with the vest pouch again, heavily reduce the chance of that item spawning. Found like 4 in one super market once.

Also, is it possible to make it so zombies don't respawn while players are in a certain vicinity of an area? Its currently impossible I believe to "clear out" anywhere.

Im trying to work out how the algorithm works more... because atm its quite hard to change zombies in any aspect

Also Good News everyone, with the new server package loading times seem to be almost instant <2minutes and that was on the US server @ 28/30
