Major Bugs since 1.7.1.2

Recommended Posts

Hola, Just thought that before I started giving information I would like to explain myself. I'm not complaining to the Dev team, just asking for help and insight on my in-game problems.

Ok so I've been playing DayZ for about a week or two. Started out smooth and flawless, but as I upgraded to 1.7.1.2 I was a victim of a bug which caused me to be invisible while in third person. So I downgraded to 1.7. Then I began freezing at the loading screen for servers. (fixed this by upgrading to 1.7.1.4) After that I played maybe for 30 minutes, game froze, come back on, items lost , spawned in blank canvas and once again invisible. So... Help please?

-Thanks in advance!

Goombaa,

Two things. First, I believe you're in the wrong area. From the Main Forum there is Support -> Troubleshooting or Support -> Bug Reports. Either location is more appropriate for the subject matter.

Second, I believe there are established forum topics concerning this, make sure to utilize the power of the 'Search' button at the top of the screen.

Here is a thread with a video and walkthrough concerning fixing invisibility-

I experienced this problem as well. The solution I found, which is not emphasized in that thread, is to make sure that have installed and are running the .exe for the arma2 beta.

Instructions for beta install are here-

Apparently, one of the recent patches (1.7.1, I think) requires the beta patch, but you can still connect to servers w/o you having installed the patch. Playing a server running the beta patch while you're not using it can cause invisibility.

Hope that helps.

edit: edited link descriptions for clarity.

Thanks! Sorry if I'm posted incorrectly, I'm just very impatient and wanted help fast. I will correct myself in the future!
