DayZ Zombie Mod for Arma 2

My game is bugged, I went into the apartment in Cherno and I just froze. When I try to get back in I just crash, tried it 4 times

Pretty much the same. Some of the zombie movements are a bit dodgy but other than that its grand

I find my frame rates to be a lot lower on DayZ.
I get steady 60-70FPS on normal domination, but on DayZ its around 40-50.

Grass is on full in Dayz by default.

You can turn it off in Domi.

Is the server running the latest patch tonight? 1.7.1 I think?

Waiting patiently for the next hotfix before I start playing again. Can't wait to go roaming with my friend.

Is there any way to mute Mumble in game?

No noticable frame drops on mine, not since the 1.5 Day Z patch anyway. Before that it was pretty bad with the full draw distance on all the servers.

I logged in for the first time in a while yesterday, and paid for not killing someone on sight. Was in Starry, and let some guy around the tents live, and made it really clear that i wasn't going to attack him....he shot me in the back :cool: I was alive, but barely and now have only 3k blood.

Later on, i logged into the boards server, and was majorly glitched out. There was no tents in Starry, but there were weapons everywhere...and i mean everywhere. Felt guilty about swapping my Winchester for an Kobra AK with 5 mags :P

I've still f*ck all blood though, so hitting anything is practically impossible.

Melee weapons? Brilliant

Finally. Made no sense to be without a melee weapon. Blades don't need reloading, it's just common zombie apocalypse sense.

Yup, the best way I found was to keybind the "Deafen Me" option. First off open up Mumble.

Hit the Configure menu, go to Settings, Click Shortcuts on the left.
Now click the Add button, click the drop down menu that shows up in the big white box above the Add button. Pick Deafen Self, then pick a shortcut button to bind it to. That's it. Press the keybind to mute everyone in Mumble, press it again to unmute. Hard part is finding a key to bind it to, with all the keybindings Arma hogs and all...

I think I found you. I went into an apartment block in cherno, saw this guy lying down (looks to be dead) and bang, game crashed. Anytime I log back in, it crashes once the building is loaded

Will try a different server and see what happens

Hawkeye you really need to stop trying to steal our jeep :P

Exactly what is happening to me.... I think you'll need to respawn, I've had the opportunity to do irt but tried to move and crashes again....

I just logged into a different server and moved out of that building and got some distance from it. I can now log back into the Boards server again without crashing.

I wonder can admin do anything about it, as I suspect more people will encounter this issue.

It' was my first time using VOIP for gaming and it was interesting listening in on the action. That hawkeye fella really wants a jeep, eh?

Some ghost guy killed me, his didnt have the correct version so he didnt appear on my screen and there was no zombies in his world. He told me he walked up to me and shot me in the face

Varik

Played a good bit today and did not die once but did have a bit of trouble when my mic stopped working and could not tell the lads on mumble not to shoot as i was crossing a open field, turned out all right.

so glad this is coming out
and melee weapon to boot thats going to be a life saver when your out of ammo and just one zed left coming at you. more animals should be nice too i can probably count on both hands how many times ive seen a goat, cow or boar when ive been wandering about.

How does Private Military Company work with DayZ, and does the lite version differ much.

I got the game off steam but some install guides say that there should be a CO executable but i've none.

1.7.1.2 is out now, crowbars and hatchets are now melee weapons.

The PMC DLC is used for the backpacks. You can just use the free 'lite' version if you want. The full versions of BAF/PMC only bring better character textures to Dayz.

You bought Combined Ops from Steam, or just Arma 2?

Combined Ops, have the option to run Combined Ops when starting up but no executable in the as some guides have shown.

Does that include character textures? My clothing texture looks horrid, like some Nintendo 64 Goldeneye crap. Not sure if it's a graphic bug or just Arma 2 showing age...

Jebus you Boards lads sure do die easily!!!! The list is getting long......
