Since all the updates for Dayz including the sound system, the sounds don't work anymore. I also can't open the admin menu anymore with numpad '7'. I verified that my GUID is in the dme_creep_admins.json file. All the configs are still there, and the mod is loaded. I'm not sure if something changed maybe I need to look at? TIA

since DeerIsle Dev has issues the map wont work for 1.30 it will take some time to update this.

@|D4Cy|®Psyern®
After random restarts, the "private sound" checkbox gets enabled automatically in certain zones. It’s actually an annoying bug, as it undermines the intended design in some areas. The map is "Deer Island."

@ghostofchernarus did you add yourself in the dme_creep_admins.json? File located in \profiles\DeadmansEcho

I may be doing something wrong, but I just installed this on one of my test servers to check it out - no matter what key I bind to the admin menu, it never appears. Any help is welcomed and appreciated!

@Ussleess may be for the future update. I will only update when there are enough changes/ideas or the mod needs an update for general meintenance

It is possible to add an option to the mod to disable random sounds in a specific zone?
