Same thing happened to me... Waited for ages for server, eventually semi-spawned in debug forest, reconnected, and never got the option to be the girl I've always wanted to be :(. Date/Time: 5/27/2012 0335 (ish) What: No option to be a chick (after spawning in debug forest) Version: 1.6.0.1 Server: NZ4 Before this (as i recall), I connected with the wrong version (updated from SixUpdater). I subsequently updated via the Six-DayZ launcher, and connected... Perhaps we could submit playerIDs to the gender changeologist?

Disconnectors make me mad, and they are prolific! Im happy to take some kind of playability hit in order to provide some disincentives for the dishonorable.

For wot its worth, i like 1.8.2 including the addition and placement of wood...

Dego, i updated my post above with some more info... but here's your steps: 1 - Go here: http://mirror.tritnaha.com/ 2 - Download the file "dayz_code_v1.5.8.2.rar" 3 - extract the two files from inside the rar file (using winrar or 7zip or wotever) 4 - Copy & replace the two files into your @DAYZ\addons folder. edit: NOTE: This assumes you've updated to 1.8.1 already using SixUpdater If you dont know where your @DAYZ folder is: a) open Six Updater b) Right click on the @DayZ MOD (which is in a folder that you named - probably DayZ) c) Select "Open mod in explorer" Happy dayz.

Same problem here... So I downloaded the 1.8.2 code from the mirror (as described here - http://dayzmod.com/forum/showthread.php?tid=4956 ...extracted the .rar file into "...\arma 2 operation arrowhead\@DayZ\addons" ...and i'm away laughing. Six updater repository will updated eventually.

Achieving quality comms has always been an issue in ARMA. I've been in love with ACRE for a long time... ACRE would be awesome if integrated with DAYZ. However, it is definitly another thing that can, and will go wrong, and another barrier to entry for new people. ACRE: A Radio mod for Arma2 that gives you - Directional and localized speech - ie. As you walk away, i hear your voice getting quieter in the direction you're travelling - Realistic radios that sound awesome, and give you over 100 channels. - more complexity... good for Arma / Milsim freaks - bad for those who aren't :(.
