RELEASE: DaiZy Chernarus 1.7.6.1 FACTIONS 2.1 [07/11 FINAL RELEASE]

[Cactus]

Haleks,

I found a Humvee at the petrol station by the railroad tracks between Balota and Cherno.  The engine status is 'orange'.  Missing windshields and 3 wheels.  I have a toolbox and engine parts with me but the vehicle scroll menu had no option to repair the engine.  It had options to repair all the items with 'red' status such as the windshields and wheels but nothing for the engine.

The option to save my game is greyed out. After I start the mission for the first time I can save ONCE. After that it is greyed out.

Can you only save every so many hours? Or why cant I save my game anymore?

Thanks

You're playing in Expert mode (limited amount of saves); switch to veteran. ;)

[Herminator]

Works now! I wasnt aware of that

Thanks for the quick answer

[Haleks]

You're welcome!

Another thing I noticed:

Are you sure the loot spawns are working the way they should? I found cars but I was unable to find any car parts. I looked for hours in very promising locations but they where almost all times completely empty. Not even trash loot.

Also a shop I went through was empty. No trash loot or anything which never happened to me before.

Yes, the loot spawning late has been an issue with release... However I think I have more or less fixed it (or at least improved it) on the 1.7.7 build. You might wanna try that one.

[Herminator]

Just dloaded 1.7.7 and will try it tomorrow :)

Oh great. Another issue with the building script...
Will look at it...

By the way guys, I didn't updated the install instructions, but this release should be compatible with 1.7.7 - it will overwrite the new 1.7.7 code so it shouldn't matter wich version of DayZ you install prior to applying the SP patch. (Didn't test it though)

Hi Haleks,

Seeing the mess with dayz 1.7.7 I am thinking to keep both daizy (2.2 and 2.2) at the same time.

My idea was to have two different shortcuts and two different folders:

@DaiZyFACTIONS_2.1
@DaiZyFACTIONS_2.2

with the different versions. Should that work? The mission files have different names so they do not overlap.

Yes, it will work no problem!

About saves in SP i found also out that:

If you save a mission, and you want to start again, but don't want to loose the save:

So you just make a new Profile and you can start and save all missions again. If you switch back to the first Profile you find the old saves.

To have the same video and keyboard etc. settings in the new Profile you can copy the settings from the old Profile. Here you find it if you want to copy it:

C:\Documents and Settings\<User>\My Documents\Arma 2 Other Profiles
(\Arma 2 for the old Profile)

May someone finds this info useful too.


Greetings

[Haleks]

Just a thought for those who prefer to stick to daizy 1.7.6.1 : the mission files from daizy 1.7.7 (and the changes/fixes that come along with them) should be compatible with the daizy 1.7.6.1 code ;)

It is for the zombies spawning in forests ;)

[Anonymous]

I think he (Haleks) uses those to get zeds to spawn in locations they usually do not (like wooded areas).

thanks both....
