Ok. My partner has had this issue for a while were she gets timed out when joining our old server. 1.7.7.1. She could join another 1.7.7.1 server no worries so we thought wth, nobody had been able to help so we ditched the original server. Now we both update to 1.8 as the server has updated .. she then gets this issue on the current server. Nothing else had changed. Just the update. We have checked and she has the exact same files as me. We have verified cache. She has reinstalled game, armaII and op arrow. She has the current be. She rolled back to 1.7.7.1 and cannot now join any servers that are running it. Rolls up to 1.8 again ..times out on every server at the last loading screen and has to force close. So she is totally Dayzless..and most annoyed :) My plan was - should she download 1.60 and 1.62 game patches and apply them ? I am at a total loss and it seems so is anyone i speak to about this. The only difference we had was i updated manually as i always do , she updated via commander. But like i said, we checked the files and have the same files and if it was a commander issue with their files then everyone would be having the same issue..one would think. Plus she did the verify cache via steam. I don't know if the 1.60 and 1.62 thing will stuff shit up but what else can she try ? It's all i got after we have been trying to solve this issue for months.

When my partner was doing it she did have to reinstall, run both and then reinstall the dayZ mod. That did the job for here :)

I will take out that bastard with tin cans if i have too :D

That's why ;)

I just want Rocket to stay true to his hardcore speeches and i don't really care if private hives make it in, as long as we have enough vanilla SA servers to play on.

That used to be my debate point as well. For some reason people seem to think that the moment everything goes to shit that there will be a million guns on the street with bad dudes killing every thing that moves, laughing aloud and eating babies while playing death metal anthems. Sure, shit probably isn't going to be pretty for a while and there always those that take advantage of a bad situation, but really..not going to happen. It isn't like we are going to devolve into some caveman mentality and ugh thug club everyone, drooling and throwing cats and dogs around for shits and giggles. Well the majority of us aren't anyway ;)

This is true. You don't need to have skill or tactics or be the best shot but a little bit of imagination at least makes it interesting. Standard kos is just boring for both sides. Sniping/killing newspawns is just too damn easy and requires no thought and adds virtually nothing to the game except giving the victim a chance at spawning away from the supposed 'bandit'. I'm not against but when it happens i just sigh and go..ugh, how exciting was that encounter, enjoy my flares.

Same but packing a hatchet , 0 dayz and Kamenka. R.I.P Jack.

I did one sesh that was 13 hours on Namalsk , started on Saturday at about 10 am and signed out at Sunday morning just after 1am. Did manage to get a roast in the oven in between and hang out my washing though :D Average session would be 3-4 hours when i do play though which is getting less and less finally :) In the beginning i was easily pulling 2-6 hours stints every other night for a few months.

Read this thread and try maybe ? THREAD

:D

What about the rest of your rig ? Uneeded services and processes etc ? There are a lot more things you can do to get consistently better gaming than just in game settings. Start here.. pick your os and start reading and applying :) WINDOWS SETTINGS run a lean machine, you may be surprised. Disabling sli in the arma series is a good start unless things changed, it was always a dog for me on two cards..but.. sus out this thread on sli and arma.. HERE

Bit of help..what rig ? what are your settings ?

sweet :)

Stands over bodies .. Arnold voice ' Neva open you zippa in puhblic..'

I think God hates you. Why are you running 1680 x 1050 anyway ?

Wraps dead player in bacon, puts player on back of bike, aggro's all zeds in Elektro, dump bacon wrapped treat in shops..rides off.

Well done :)

re the above, i am hoping in the SA we get enough character customisation that we can recognise at least our immediate friends better. Have you read this thread HERE

Unfortunately only large dead eyed sea bass and trout.

Try deleting the appdata folder as described in THIS THREAD for people who get stuck loading in forever and have to force close the game.

Wooot ! Finally solved :) Thanks heaps to Rarabka223 :thumbsup: It did involve a full reinstall which she had done a few times previously with no joy, but it must have been deleting the appdata that finally solved it. Hopefully this thread can help a few who get the same problem and have to force close and never work it out, i found a ton of people all over the web in various forums and such who have given up with this exact issue so hopefully a google search leads them here.

Stuff your chopper ..i lost a pbx full of fish recently.

For some reason i haven't had a broken anything since the patch. When looting the tents sometimes stuff was respawning as soon as i picked an item up and by the time i had completely looted all four, the tents had all respawned items, which is what i meant by 'non stop circle tent loot run'. Same was happening at the mil tents in Cherno as well. I wandered out of there after a few minutes fully geared. Only problem i am having is there is so much mil loot that it is hard to pick which two primary guns i want to keep, generally taking an m4a3cco and m14 aim.

I am normally hooked up to my spare 42 " so i can enjoy the scenery ;)
