Hello again, I had a long break from DayZ for a long time (was playing other games whilst forgetting about that ARMA 3 was about to come out and then I got it), I don't even remember my last posts here.

I have come across a mod called "Zoombies" for ARMA 3, basically it adds DayZ functionality (albeit not full as far as I know) to ARMA 3 through use of All-in-Arma mod to load Chernarus and/or other maps on ARMA 3 and play its mission, but it requires to own both ARMA 2/ OA & 3.

I know anyone can download server/client files from their repository, the server files were made available after someone asked for them but that was some time ago after release of their launcher, the point is that I was thinking if it would be possible to convert the "Zoombies" mod and its mission to DaiZy format, and have DaiZy SP in ARMA 3. (huge undertaking, I know)

I think someone in the world might have tried this already, I have depbo'd the mod to have a look at it, but that didn't get me anywhere because my knowledge about the inner workings of ARMA mods is minimal to be honest.

Post away your thoughts/ideas/issues on the subject.

[On another subject I have played Above's BreakingZero mission for quite some time, it's amazing bro but it lacked a few nice features introduced in earlier releases, plus I had issues with the HUD not refreshing, especially on a savegame load, I also was plagued by a glitch where eating food wouldn't replenish my hunger meter which didn't end up badly yet cause the meter goes quite slow. Somehow my inventory screen doesn't look like it does in the screenshot, instead of the surroundings being visible while looking at it, the screen is blackened, I do not know why it opens like that, but I didn't have this issue with DayZ/DaiZy versions before 1.7.7.

I was using addons @CBA_CO @COWarMod(Lite variety) @JSRS also using latest beta patch for Arma 2 OA.

Also I had an issue where after a certain period of time when AI bandits/survivors start re-spawning after the first volley wouldn't do anything. Yes, even when they were like 15 feet away from each other, they would just stand there and do nothing, they would only respond if I got close to them, then they would obviously start shooting at me, but at range they have no chance a person can just snipe them with one shot from a Lee Enfield or a Kar98. There goes my rant of a sort. I know this would fit in the thread of the mission itself, but I was lazy to make another thread and I might forget what I was going to type anyway since I just typed this at the top of my head.]
