No Zombies for me

Recommended Posts

Hi there,

I'm software engineer that's why I had to register to report my real annoying problem.

Edit: Just to clarify. My topic is NOT related to other "no Zombies AND no loot" topics.

I found loot every time I have joined a server.

Date/Time: two days ago, one day ago, last night - doesn't matter

What happened: I'm playing now for 3 days (this one is the 3rd). Every time I'm going to join a server (no matter which one) I don't see any Zombies. My Debug Monitor says "Zombies: 0", EVERYTIME.

I redownloaded and replaced the dayz files but nothing changed.

While I'm playing alone, I neither see nor hear (a) Zombie(s).

While I'm playing with one other guy we neither see nor hear (a) Zombie(s).

Last night (European Time) we played with four people - the other three guys saw and heard the Zombies. I didn't.

Where you were: All over the map. In houses, outside, in towns on the streets..

What you were doing: Just playing

Current installed version: the actual (1.5.6)

Server(s) you were on: DE2, DE4, EU2, EU4, EU10, ...

Your system specs:

Windows 7 x64

AMD Phenom II X6

ASUS HD7770

8GB DDR3-RAM

Internet connection: 16k (never have/had any problems with it)

Timeline of events before/after error: I don't really understand whether this matters or not

I hope you can help me figuring out what to do to get rid of this bug.

Are you able to see animals? I can't see neither zombies nor animals.

EDIT: Nevermind, it's really hard to find them. It could be because I had another player with me.

There has been some issues with zombies on servers. How many different servers have you tried?

It appears that if you can't see zombies then you can't see all kinds of objects scattered around (barricades, certain car wrecks, trash on the road). I can't, at least.

Well, yesterday I've replaced all files again and.. Now I see the Zombies and my Debug Monitor is correct.

Dunno what was wrong.

What files did you replace? Mod files, or game files?

Edit: After completely deleting every Arma / OA version I had on and installing fresh and downloading the new version, zombies started appearing.
