Hello Survivors,
There's been a lot of great stuff happening in the community and today's Community Spotlight is once again completely packed, so make yourselves a cup of tea, sit back and enjoy!
To kick things off, I have some interesting facts for you from our animation team.
The animators have already made or started progress on
5660 animationsfor DayZ, and
4169 of those animations are currently being used in the game. And another interesting fact - the longest animation we have is shaving which clocks in at 400 frames, meaning it's just a little over 13 seconds long. Thank you
Adam Orestenfor this interesting info!
The Xbox community has a lot of questions and we decided to answer them in a live stream. We took the frequently asked questions and issues you've sent to us in the
Xbox Feedback Round - January 2019[forums.dayz.com]on our Forums and we were talking about them on the live stream. Check it out:

I can't forget to mention it was
Valentine's Day. All of us get from our nice colleague Ket (who's taking care of all the crashes you send, and takes her
lovely huskies[http://www.instagram.com]to the office every day) a DayZ heart cookie.
But we get nice stories and wishes from you too.
Look at this cute picture. It's Valentine's gift from
Kylato her other half -
a picture of them playing DayZ together for the first time. It's so romantic and it is cool to know you can find the love of your life in DayZ.
And thank you all for nice wishes and pictures.
It warmed our hearts.
Yeah, we've had an annoying
issue with persistence,and hopefully it is all gone right now (thank you devs so much!), many of you tried to help us to identify and resolve persistence problems, and among the most active reporters were the members of the community from the Village server who built a
wall across the Chernarusto find out what breaks the persistence. In the end, it was a different issue, but we want to thank you for your passion for DayZ,
we love you. Here's how was "The Great Wall of Persistence" built.
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=MHXceeTJwoEBut the persistence issue didn't scare some people, and they continued with their bases without the fear of losing progress. Check out this massive base made by
ElementFireClan:
Or this one made by
judderman2005:
A Reddit user
jude_nedmade an interesting post for all of you guys in the DayZ community. He made a couple of Reddit threads on history, types and
exciting facts about the weaponsthat you can find in-game. He already covered
Mosin Nagantand
SKS. It's a quality read, check it out:
Let's also check out some nice pictures from you.
This one looks like some surrealistic painting but it is, in fact, a Chernarus map! Don't ask me how it was made, I have no idea, but you can ask
drumfishwho posted it on the Reddit.
It's just beautiful.
Imdenkosshared a screenshot of his squad and they look scary, I don't think they are friendly, but
they are dope!
Snakevsplane bought a map of Chernarusand put it into a frame, so he is not going to lose it anymore. If you are interested in this
map[store.bistudio.com]too, you can find it in our shop together with
patches[store.bistudio.com],
hoodies[store.bistudio.com]and
t-shirts[store.bistudio.com].
And the last picture is a photo by
Ciiza, who lives in
the Real Chernarusand wants to show you how it looks in Dubky right now. Can you recognize it?
Modding is one of the most important things for the community right now, let me show some of fine things that I found.
Guys from the Czech community (the same group also working on the
BARRANDIENmap) created a really handy thing. It's an
interactive map[map.dayz-sa.cz]where you can see logs of all the events that you need to have to make server admin's life easier. You can
see real-time kills, deaths, logins, logoutsand more on the map. It's still WIP and not for the public now, but it's sick!
There's also a
new map called Chiemsee. It's 10x10km big, and fully playable even though towns get improved all the time.. You can find it on the "Chiemsee Official" server.

3RNOwith his friend
Gibs[http://www.twitch.tv](that Jonny Rotten's face ).

Next up is
DeanoZwho's creating some really entertaining content on his channel. He shows his modded content like karts or new cars but the most interesting are
tutorial videos. If you are into modding but don't know how to start, his tutorial can help you.
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=QqiVxEsP14wDo you have a nice base, but are you tired of looking for food every day?
A private gardenis the solution to your problem. You can grow tomatoes, peppers, pumpkins or zucchinis and eat them raw, dry or prepare them on the stick. But do you know how to grow your vegetables?
AmishZedhas a guide for you.
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=niK06dSAb2QAnother guide is
intended for beginners, who have troubles finding out where they spawned and where to run after spawn.
Gruntmade a helpful video for you.
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=NVCqqwkmh5cAnd one more guide! Building a working car is not easy. You need to find a lot of car parts and make them work together.
Element FIRE Clan made a tutorial on how to build a 100% working Ada, so if you are not sure, check out this video.
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=pjDD7-b0TLcI couldn't imagine how cool this video is until I've played it. It is an
ASMR DayZ video, just sounds of the sea, burning fireplace and ambient nature, really good for sleeping. I love this idea.
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=AlwPeckRPakThis is a funny moment when
Lirik[http://www.twitch.tv]met a crazy KKona Guy. I laughed a lot.
https://youtu.be/vXHG7ww158kThis is a story of two
FBI officers investigating a cannibalin Electro, and it has everything, action, friendship and tears at the end. Check it out; it's really entertaining.
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=aSPZxfqYpZwThat feeling when you complete a car and then someone kills your driver and you are a hostage of two full geared guys, trapped on the back seat:
Priceless. Nice video
CitrusPunch! And thumb up for 1PP and VOIP!

Another great story made by Gekofish. His videos are so relaxing and funny. And he started to be really popular in the community, so
join his subscribe crew:

And we can't forget about the
location riddle. The last location was in the northeast of Shakovka village. And the winners are:
Here is a new location for the next Community Spotlight:
If you know where is this place, tweet it to our
