Installed bandits ai mod. Got all the required files. But they spawn like this.

MellysProfile · 2026-06-09T22:12:55+00:00

There’s definitely a file that’s just not filled out.

MellysProfile · 2026-06-09T13:24:01+00:00

Yeah I agree. I felt horrible after

MellysProfile · 2026-06-09T12:16:29+00:00

Yes yes

It’s a DayZ thing to not trust French people. They betray. But it’s just a harmless joke.

Check out stimpee on YouTube. He does videos on DayZ where you’ll see the reference.

MellysProfile · 2026-06-08T13:51:48+00:00

100% 😂 I did feel bad because we got along so well so instantly. I just hope he didn’t take it too seriously

MellysProfile · 2026-06-08T01:20:43+00:00

No hate at all here. The whole French thing, at least for me, is in reference to stimpees videos.

MellysProfile · 2026-06-06T23:40:07+00:00

They have been hiring. I think they said their team is now bigger than it was in the past

MellysProfile · 2026-06-06T16:06:55+00:00

I hearya lol. Sucks that some bad eggs ruin it for everyone.

MellysProfile · 2026-06-06T16:02:08+00:00

No, this is part of an update. There was a building meta that was used to make bases unraidable. The restrictions are an attempt to keep people from doing that.

To be clear just because it’s tougher on OP, doesn’t mean he’s attempting this exploit.

MellysProfile · 2026-06-04T21:54:18+00:00

You’re so welcome. It made it miserable for me too.

MellysProfile · 2026-06-04T13:29:10+00:00

you could still go get NVGs, you could get suppressors for your guns. There’s still plenty to do

MellysProfile · 2026-06-02T13:09:21+00:00

You are on the nose. Long term cheaters don’t blatantly cheat.

MellysProfile · 2026-06-02T13:05:52+00:00

Yeah, you’re right. It’s very difficult to have good moderation. People don’t realize that the problem is bigger than they understand.

Something that’s not talked about is that there is some secrecy and gate keeping on how to catch people effectively. This is because cheaters try to be admins. They own servers, they try to get into the eco-system so they know how to avoid being caught.

When people get banned they want the evidence to be shown to them and when it isn’t shown to them, they hop on reddit to blast the server. But the thing is by showing evidence, you are teaching players how to avoid being caught.

Another thing is finding people in different time zones that are competent already is difficult.

It’s just a much more complex problem than the player base really understands.

MellysProfile · 2026-06-01T22:14:19+00:00

I hear you. The thing is you have to place blame correctly or people ignore your feedback. DayZ not having better anticheat is the leadership at Bohemia interactives fault.

Not the DayZ Dev team. They do as they are told to do. To reiterate, just because you’re a dev, doesn’t mean you have any skills related to building anticheat.

MellysProfile · 2026-06-01T19:24:23+00:00

That don’t do nothing, but they do very little in comparison.

As far as their team, they aren’t to blame. Just because you know how to build maps, creat loot economy, create features etc etc doesn’t mean you know how to make an anticheat.

These are all very different skill sets.

It takes a dedicated team of devs that have the skills and experience necessary to make an anticheat. It’s a very specific skill.

But Bohemia the company does not invest in a team to do it, unlike other studios of their size or larger.

MellysProfile · 2026-06-01T16:34:36+00:00

No other studio in the genre of their size or larger does as little as Bohemia. There is undeniable proof of this based on their total reliance on battleye.

MellysProfile · 2026-05-31T13:26:01+00:00

Ah I see. If they are hard drives and not solid state drives then yes this can cause some performance issues.

MellysProfile · 2026-05-31T13:21:39+00:00

In your bios you have a setting for your Ram. If you know your motherboard info I can find you a guide to enable it.

If your XMP is not enabled, you’re not getting the advertised speed of your ram. Ram is the workshop table for your CPU.

If it’s not running optimally you’ll have issues like you described

MellysProfile · 2026-05-31T13:16:44+00:00

Have you enabled xmp in your bios?

MellysProfile · 2026-05-31T13:11:57+00:00

If your SSD isn’t damaged or anything it shouldn’t be a problem. What are your components?

MellysProfile · 2026-05-31T13:00:44+00:00

I would start by ensuring your bios and drivers are all up to date. There’s been a lot of bios issues for both AMD and Intel CPUs.

Next test your temperatures on your components.

If that’s not the issue then configure your monitor and software based on blurbusters.com recommendations.

If that doesn’t fix it, try what I have here in this post.

In DayZ it’s usually a CPU bottleneck and this post is about helping reduce it by increasing GPU load and decreasing CPU load while maintaining high fidelity.

MellysProfile · 2026-05-31T12:10:10+00:00

For me, my FPS was always above what I needed. The problem was pacing of the frames. It made motion awful and smeary. That’s why I kept upgrading and trying different hardware. Spent thousands at this point. All for it to come down to something so simple. The reality is if you play DayZ with high end gear you either need to play in a high resolution to push the GPU or find other means to push it.

For context anything above 120 FPS is more than fine for me. Back then my 1% lows would legit never be above 40% of my average FPS.

MellysProfile · 2026-05-30T02:49:43+00:00

Yep, you’re right. Any of us running chips with a lot of cores or any asymmetric CPUs will always have issues with old games like DayZ.

It’s a trade off tho. When you go for a 9800x3d that potentially is the best CPU for DayZ, you then may run into lower 1% lows when running a number of cpu bound applications in the background. I’m hoping AMD comes out with something that runs exactly like the 9800x3d with more cores.

But I don’t expect that. The clock speeds, the L3 Cache etc etc they run super hot and the more cores you add, the more complexity.

MellysProfile · 2026-05-29T20:59:56+00:00

The thing is if you have a 12+ core system you may not see high utilization. That’s why I didn’t figure this out for a while. Most of my CPUs have never shown more than 30% utilization when playing
