    Was there a server issue yesterday.
    I was getting kicked after 3-4 min in game and there was atleast 10 spaces left.
    any other server i went to was fine.

    That was me , really sorry, I thought you were Cyan. He was holed up in the apts somewhere and we'd been hunting each other and you happened to stroll (literally) so I just fired.

    There was a lot of pitch black gun play going on around there last night.

    Sorry about your NVG's, I did not even risk going to your body.

    Cyan, where the hell were you- roof?

    Im trying to move the game to a new laptop and everything is running fine however I cannot get battleye to install properly on operation arrowhead. After I right Click,properties,verify integrity it will download to 100% and then say "One file failed to validate and will be reacquired"

    I have also tried reinstalling battleye,no luck. Once I go into game I get as far as Waiting for character to create and then i get kicked!.

    Any suggestions?

    Once you verify the integrity of the game cache you MUST run Arma II on its own and the do the same with Operation arrowhead as it install the BE client. Then run combined ops

    If that fails :
    Download the install .exe and run it as administrator. It will work in the background.
    ftp://downloads.bistudio.com/arma2.com/tools/Setup_BattlEyeARMA2OA.exe

    Then to be sure :

    http://www.battleye.com/download.html

    Download the second client.dll and place it in the following places

    program files/program files (x86)/steam/steamapps/common/operation arrowhead/expansion/battleye

    program files/program files (x86)/steam/steamapps/common/arma II/battleye

    C:/users/NAME/appdata/local/operation arrowhead/battleye

    What surround sound headsets are you all using? I was thinking of getting the Logitech G35. Anyone else using it, can you tell me if you get surround sound with it or, do you only get stereo in DayZ?

    Seems like a complete reversal (again) of some of the things said earlier on in the alpha
    Xeno, on 26 July 2012 - 12:42 PM, said:
    If I pick up hacked weapons, will I be banned? I mean like, a ban for sure. Not a "maybe". Thanks,

    Xeno

    PS. I think the hackers name is "Mike", I just took him out from the ground with an AS50. May not be him though because I found a chopper randomly earlier.

    Rocket
    No

    This rumour has no basis to it whatsoever.

    Using a hacked vehicle/weapon will identify you during database analysis, and your character may receive special logging attention in the database, but you will not receive a ban without creating them yourself.

    Thanks for the reply. I am in the process of trying your second solution. The .exe wont run, i get the option to run it yes/no and then nothing. I can't find anything in the task manager relating to it either.

    I also downloaded the second client.dll however when i tried to paste it into the advised folders it already existed. Im at a loss to be honest why cant it be simple!!?

    Of course he had to reverse what he said before. Innocent players were being banned. Not everyone reads the forums or Reddit.

    I use the Logitech G35 when playing DayZ.

    The sound quality is brilliant and the surround sound comes in really useful at times. One problem I have with it, however, is that it can be really uncomfortable to wear for long periods of time. I'm not the only user to complain about this, and it seems to be the main "con" for reviewers.

    have the same set myself. amazing surround sound from them.

    as for the comfort issues, did you try changing the padding that comes with them? I found after a few weeks that this was my issue.

    Unfortunately I find that with all headsets, I can only wear buds for long periods, so It's something I'm used to. Thanks.

    It sucks get shot at and not being able to figure out where they are coming from. :p

    ****TY ASS 3G CONNECTION. Im still there now

    You able to play this over 3G? What type of pings you getting?

    I had to stop playing this as the shared broadband connection in new apartment is getting crap pings in all multiplayer games :(

    log into the router usually 192.168.1.1/192.168.1.254 (passwords are all over the net) and see if it has QOS, if so enable it for Gaming/yourcomputer etc.
    I used to have that problem with one flattie, torrents 24/7, cnut.

    If there is a BE.dll file in the places I said then the installer done its work.

    And copy and replace the file in there.

    Also try running steam as admin. If it works you can right click steam.exe>properties>compatability tab>tick the box to run as Admin>Ok/apply

    Anyone got a tent for sale? I'll give you something in return of course.

    Really starting to get annoyed by people opening tents just to spoil it for everyone else.

    I found one tent in the last few weeks, pitched it on another server now that server is no longer with us :(

    And is it me or is the winchester the best gun in the game, so far I have killed everything I've shot at with the winny, EVERYTHING!!!!

    Generally the 3g dongles dont have a way to adjust the settings,as in ther's no router page.

    You can try opening Command prompt and typing ipconfig and copy the Default Gateway into your browser bar,that should be your router page but like I said it might not work.

    * [FIXED] Tents and items with ID's above 1 million don't syncronize (now it should syncronize, players to confirm)
    * [NEW] Respawn button is enabled if the player has a fracture


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 137 ✭✭Roorah


    I've decided to try something different this life. Im setting up a supply and safe point on the roof of the apartments in Electro. Got food, water and spare matches and the like for anyone who wants it.

    Also I may get bored and shoot ALL the zombies i see......

    *within seconds of posting this someone came into the apartments. Said I was friendly and had spare supplies. No reply. Tried again, no reply. Waited a minute and poked my head round the corner to see him aiming a shotgun at the stairs I was on. Gave him one last chance before he shoot. Shame


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 2,736 ✭✭✭dan_ep82


    * [FIXED] Players switched to non-player skins (by hackers) sync to database (updates no longer saved for objects non-authorized skins)
    * [NEW] Out of bound positions (debug area) will be reset to the beach on login

    More.

    Unfortunately it's a shared router for an apartment block so not sure what the implications may be. I think there must be quite a few accessing it which drives the ping crazy or else its something "the powers that be" have configured on the router to stop online gaming.

    I would use my 3G dongle as an alternative though I doubt the ping would be much better. Does IE1 still have a high ping kick limit?

    Whats the error exactly?
