I have released v0.1 for DayZ Sahrani a little while ago.I never thought that the submod of dayz could get much attention but it seems having gotten a lot of attention. DayZ Sahrani now has a 5 person dev team working on the mod a good amount of the time. The ideas that we have for the future of DayZ Sahrani is massive. The mod will go on DayZ Commander soon and be moving to version 0.3 public release.

I have just started editing the loot config to add Caa1 buildings to it. I am planning to use some of the guns I made in the past in the mod. Planned guns so far are the Homemade shotgun, Ar-7, and Czech SMG. Along with the weapons will come more ammo types like .22 caliber. If anyone would like a gun added in the mod (mainly non-military guns), comment with the name of the gun and I will see what I can do. I will update the status of the mod, when more has been completed.

Zombie spawns: 80%
Loot spawns: 80%
Wood Gathering: 100%

I have started work on a sub varient of Dayz called, Dayz Sahrani. Takes place on the map Sahrani from ArmA. I plan to add a lot to the mod, and give a bigger reason to explore the landscape of Sahrani. I am planning for new weapons, and updating some of the models for magazines. Finally I will try to make some of the buildings that are closed in ArmA open in Dayz Sahrani. In the end I want to create a realistic and ambient Dayz mod. I will update the status of the sub mob through these blogs. I may create a Moddb page to update to the progress of the mod.

I am happy to see that Arma 2 is topping the charts in this years Moddb mod and game of the year. I have always loved the Arma 2 series and am still convinced that it is the best series that has been created. The work by the employees at Bohemia Interactive inspire me to be a better designer and developer. I am hoping that in the end Arma 2 rises a few spots in the rankings and that more people play this fabulous game.

I have been thinking for the past few months about taking off the gloves and starting a Vietnam War related Multiplayer FPS. If I do go through with some of the ideas I have going through my head, I will either make it on the Unity Engine or with UDK. I'm just hoping that with this idea that I have going that I might get people interested in joining my next development team. Well until then better get back to making more models and honing my skills.

If anyone likes the work I am doing and would like me to help out in a project feel free to PM and I will see what I can do.
