spinphd Posted October 25, 2014 Report Share Posted October 25, 2014 Another recommendation: Items dropped in piles on the ground disappear. Uh, don't know about your end of the universe, but this definitely flies in the face of everyone's reality! So garbage collection and the proliferation of piles of objects is a concern. However, consider every tree object and every leaf. I certainly DON'T need to see that many trees! I would challenge the modders to find an intelligent way to handle this rather than make piles of gear disappear in 5 mins of game time! THAT'S just moronic! Certainly, at the very LEAST, objects have a lifetime, start there. Thanks, Spin Phd Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RC_Robio Posted October 25, 2014 Report Share Posted October 25, 2014 Curious as to what server you are playing on as I have not seen happen. PuffY187 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
spinphd Posted October 31, 2014 Author Report Share Posted October 31, 2014 Well I play on Epochmod.com # 1, 2, 3.... If you don't see this you're not paying attention. I'm not suggesting they disappear as soon as you drop them, but item piles on the ground should STAY unless picked up! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RC_Robio Posted October 31, 2014 Report Share Posted October 31, 2014 Epochmod.com # 1, 2, 3, doesn't really specify what server. They are many broken servers with Epochmod.com in the name. Play on the officials. And you can't expect loot on the ground to stay forever it will disappear eventually otherwise it would eventually slow the server down.

GasT Posted October 31, 2014 Report Share Posted October 31, 2014 At a certain distance it will be cleaned up, uncertain of distance though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
nedfox Posted October 31, 2014 Report Share Posted October 31, 2014 To make the server playable, It has to be done.. But I guess when items would stay, OP would be the 1st one to complain about FPS drops. :) Čeh, RC_Robio and TheDanius 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

carl101 Posted October 31, 2014 Report Share Posted October 31, 2014 What's with the doh crap at the beginning of all your topic titles Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
spinphd Posted October 31, 2014 Author Report Share Posted October 31, 2014 You know nedfox, you can keep your pansy-boy, snarky comments to yourself.... unless you're driving to Houston that is, you let me know. It is NOT true that it's necessary to make the server playable. Folks not involved with the development of the mod need to stop promulgating the bullshit. Now I acknowledged there are some concerns in my OP, the fact is, the "time" loot piles remain on the ground is way too short, so short it's simply stupid. I challenge the creators to take a better look at this. Childish remarks add nothing here! The engine doesn't render or resolve all terrain, objects, etc. It's not rendering a tree for you across the map that no one has LOS on. The fact is, other mission and mod writers have done a better job of handling this. Epoch should too. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Cause ARMA.. Flosstradamus I believe you are correct here. Flosstradamus 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MGT Posted October 31, 2014 Report Share Posted October 31, 2014 This has to be a troll. It can't be real can it MGT? I think it definitely is. This thread should be cleaned up to keep server performance up :D =BRC=Shep, DruidRaven, Čeh and 1 other 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
