Help Hud visible but screen flashing black

[Help Hud visible but screen flashing black]

This is happening to me too :(

Yea this sucks. I've tried every possible fix (that i could find online).

I've tried reinstalling, tried doing the thing where you validate the integrity of the game cache.. really really sucks. I wanna play so bad lol.

Thanks for the guide, but my problem with the guide is that I can't install the beta patch from the arma2 website due to some Wrong CD Key error bs. I've tried every fix possible for it. I thought SU was supposed to "force" update the patch making it not necessary to use the beta patch.

hey guys, not sure what the problem is but my screen keeps going black then coming back constantly. The hud stays visible the whole time.

Not really sure how the tent thing works to be quite honest.

but didn't know female models couldn't wear them! lol

[What is the easiest way to lose zombies?]

Thanks to you guys I am getting much better at this game at a fairly quick rate. I was able to stay alive longer my last life. Ended up finding a hospital and got a bunch of goodies, but then got gang banged by some zombies.

[What is the easiest way to lose zombies?]

Thanks again for all the responses, they are great. Unfortunately, I just found out that I may be playing in outdated DayZ. Is the beta patch necessary to play the most up to date versions of DayZ? If so, I am SoL, because I am having a terrible time trying to install the f'in patch.

["Wrong CD Key" With Beta Patch.]

i recently reinstalled my OS and put the steam folder back in from a backup i had of it.

Try Verify integrity of Game cache...

When in steam goto Library' date=' right click arma2 and choose properties at the bottom.

In the new box that pops up choose the Local Files tab and then choose Verify game cache option.

Do the above for Arma2 Operation Arrowhead too.

Next do a re-install battlleye for both.

Next you need to run Each game once so that it can create the cfg files.

Run Arma2 and let it get as far as the ingame menus then exit game.

Run Arma2 OA and same with egtting to menu and then exit.

Then put the ARMA2_OA_Build_93965.exe ( or whatever version your trying to update to ) into your main Operation arrowhead folder.

then run the .exe again and see if it works this time.

Ugh I'm so frustrated with these damn games right now..

First I was getting some Direct X 9 error, which I finally fixed.

Now I'm trying to install the beta and I'm getting the Wrong CD Key error. I did all of the steps you've provided, but when I try to reinstall battleeye I get this message, "This game is currently unavailable. Please try again at another time." W....T.... F.... I don't think a single game has made me so angry. Please help!

Edit: Do i NEED the beta patch to play DayZ?

Thanks for the tips guys. I think I'll stick to the slope trick. Not a fan of cheating, so I'll ignore the relog suggestions XD.

[What is the easiest way to lose zombies?]

I don't know if the guides I read are all old or what, but I am having a difficult time losing zombies. I have tried the running into a building, exit out the other side, and crawling away, but they still seem to pursue me. Please help. Also, I don't know if it's lag or what, but I will be about 2 cars lengths away proned, but they still notice me and run after me.

[no entry 'bin config.bin/cfgweapons and spawning with no weapon]

Damn lol. I'm new to the game AND I get a more difficult updated version XD.

[no entry 'bin config.bin/cfgweapons and spawning with no weapon]

Just got the game and I've been trying figure things out. From all the videos I've seen it seems you're supposed to spawn with a pistol or something. I get this error everytime and I spawn with no gun. Is this normal? Help please.
