So ive never found anything that was genuinely impossible to retexture, but everything mentioned here definitely does not work with the usual methods. I havent tried toe SSG82 yet, but every other gun mentioned needs a couple annoying workarounds to get a new texture, it would be so much easier and a better end result if all models came with a hiddenselection that allowed full modification of the displayed texture (and by extension, the .rvmat). The P1 stands out as a notable exception as being the most uniquely resistant to new textures, its difficult to get the colors you want on it, though pretty easy to make it either all pink or all cyan, im just trying to get camo patterns on it starting with snow. This is my best result so far and proof that its possible to do without modifying the .p3d or model.cfg.

Hello PadRock.
Please contact the creators of the mod as there is nothing we can do as we did not create the mod.
Thank you, we will investigate with BattlEye.

Have you reached out to the creators of VPP admin tools? This seems like something that you need to reach out to them for

Hello Yumpoes.
Do you have an option to test the game on another network so we can rule out/confirm that this could be the cause?

It's 15 min to crack 3 digit codelock. ~2,5 hours to break 4 digit codelock. And this is if he starts with 0000 and the code is 9999. If all doors had same code it is 2,5 hours max + 2,5 hours for last door (different code as you said). If he had a lot of time and persistence - why not. Cheater would probably just use teleport instead of unlocking all doors.
No man, that's the Dayz Red Face the Reality pill. That's the joke ofc. Funny it is red, looks like red berette
I like the purple sky. Plus you don't know whole story. Maybe the sun went rouge and burned half of the ozone layer, maybe it is one of the reasons told by Nate (pollution/volcanic ash). Anyway, it's not something that can't be changed on custom servers. Yes, not like IRL, but if it was IRL there are reasons for that, so not fictional, or "cartoony". I think it's nice.
@Nate_LapT you can extract coords of new placed buildings and put them in init.c (google it, it's not hard), and the method will work for you. As far as I know this is the only way to add custom navmesh, but I may be wrong.
Without access to the source code we will never know. However, this has the tell-tale signs of being the exact same issue, which is the predominant purple/pinkish tint during sunsets and sunrises. It's no surprise many games also have this problem since most implementations are referencing the same few papers which make this approximation. We'll just have to wait for confirmation from the developers.
😂 nothing I said has anything to do with me liking or disliking the colour purple, and much more to do with it being an intended feature which I have no interest in seeing changed and am therefore speaking my opinion the same as the OP has. Again, the data you’re speaking of is from other games with the assumption that they made the same mistake to dayz.

Maybe try roling back a windows update, I wasn't having any issues until most recent update. I didn't really have anything worth keeping so I just went full wipe and unenrolled from insider program.
Hi,
I have exactly the same problem!!
Oh! and about what you write:
@Osdaeus OP shared empiric data, real life examples, and even a link to the solution to fix the overwhelming purple sky at dawn/sunset, and all you have to argument is:
Seems like you’re a bit triggered. If you can’t handle debate then you shouldn’t engage in controversy. Again, your data comes from an entirely different game when you say it’s an error that it’s purple. You don’t think the devs can see the colour when they made this change? It’s a beautiful view. While I can agree not every sunset would realistically be the same colour, that’s the way it works whether it’s purple or orange it will always be the same at sunset if the weather is clear. It’s a skybox not a live video that changes everyday. You’ve never seen a purple sky?
Btw, i was send to this forum by DAYZ Twitter to submit my request here.
"talk about realism you should keep in mind you’re playing a post-apocalyptic zombie survival game." is the dumbest and laziest argument people tend to pull when talking about things like this.
For the record, it also happens when you craft several fence kit without moving.
Others kits (tower, flag pole, shelter) may be affected?
If you read the post I linked in the issue description, the author's solution has considerably higher color accuracy when compared with real-world measurements. The reason why currently the sky looks so purple is not by design - it's a poor numerical approximation. The new parameters were algorithmically chosen to minimize the error against the measurements.
You’re stating opinion not facts, and comparing other games with dayz saying they should take the same approach. Purple sky is unrealistic? You’re one google image search away from seeing plenty of HD real images of purple skies. Also while you talk about realism you should keep in mind you’re playing a post-apocalyptic zombie survival game. In my opinion if you guys have nothing more to complain about than the colour of the sky for 10 minutes, then it seems like they’re doing fine. You shouldn’t want the devs wasting time and energy revisiting updates that aren’t an issue and instead allow them to work on things that actually matter like new content, stability, and bug fixes. Again, just my opinion.

@Osdaeus everyone I know that plays DayZ finds the purple sky super weird. Also, DayZ being the game that always pushed the gritty realistic environment which resulted in unparalleled immersion, kind of makes it weird to see such change in the opposite direction. And purple sky isn't the only problem. It's also the super clear sky during the day with loads of fog on the map. It looks broken. Yes, clouds are nice, but everything else is questionable. The only place the purple sky fits is Namalsk. Because of the sun angle and moisture/snow. And that's still a bit too purple. Also, the OG post explains in great detail what's wrong with it, backed up by specific data and ways to fix it.... so there's no point arguing about it...
Hello kikerot.
We have tested this and hunting loot spawns normally. It is possible you have been just unlucky.
A fix would be great
Thanks for reply, Sad to hear that.
Thanks for reply, any chance to put some work in to the textures? since LOD breaking them into really bad textures
This is happening on all community servers randomly. I don't know how about vanilla

Hello Geez,
thanks for testing and your feedback.

This estimate is not set in stone and might change ofcourse.
sgbl Already tested all those things is not Norton AV not firewall not Defender ..
Thank you
These are the LODs of bushes at greater sitance, not a bug.
Hello dayzbaer.
We have tested this thoroughly but we are unable to produce the issue on our end.
Hello Woness.
Currently there are no plans to address this due to its triviality.
Hello El-niniO.
Hesco box/Wire mesh barrier is an item that was removed from the vanilla version of the game. Spawning it on unofficial servers is at your own risk and can result in issues such as you mentioned. Currently there are no plans to work on this item.
BattlEye is working on their support for the current version and they would like to release it soon - within a week.
This estimate is not set in stone and might change ofcourse.
I've been on insider builds since they started and never had an issue until the lastest update that has been pushed out.. hopefully this can be addressed by either Bohemia or battleye as to revert back to a build of windows 11 would require a fresh install for me as I'm on canary channel for updates.
Hello everyone.
Unfortunately BattlEye does not fully support insider builds of Windows. Since DayZ requires BattlEye to be on at all times, it means that DayZ will possibly not run on insider builds. However, we will contact BattlEye to see if there is anything that can be done.

The original thread on the MSFS forums comparing the before and after the tweak was unfortunately taken down. Still, I found some comparison images:
@Osdaeus The suggested tweak makes the atmosphere color objectively more realistic with measurements to back it up. Unless you want DayZ to take place in Planet Barbie, I think we should opt for the more realistic look.
Well I dont like it I need the insider program .. I Hope Battle Eye invest on Fixing the issue. The Insider is the next public version of Windows and if they dont FIxed now it will become a huge problem for them when goes public release. With our reports we do the public service to Battle Eye finding this issues
So better they FIxit soon
