1.7.1.5 glitched?

[Statik (DayZ) 2695]

Hey all,

My friends and I knew that 1.7.1.5 was really glitchy so we stayed on 1.7 servers. Last night we noticed that pretty much EVERY server was 1.7.1.5 or 1.7.1.4. So we updated our DayZ. After updating (P.S. I run beta patch which I didn't update) I joined game to find a few things, #1 My player was invisible, you could only see my gun, #2 there were random diamonds in my screen, like objective points, #4 the tents by the Cherno hospital are invisible, and #5 I had no debug monitor, and made no sound, no "sight" and I never got hungry or thirsty. Later on, after downgrading and trying to join a 1.7 server I spawned in the MIDDLE of the map, with 4 characters standing in front of me. They had everything from GPS, to antibiotics, to M16A2 (which I could loot at will). WTF is going on? Are all 1.7.1.5(4) servers like this? I updated it all correctly (I used US mirror). Could it be that I didn't update the beta? Any help would be appreciated. Thanks a bunch!

P.S. My friend was also spawning with a flashlight, and thats it. He never had any invisible problems/objective points in the distance. But he did spawn in the same place as me with the 4 characters (we couldn't see each other though).

You MUST update the beta to version 93965 (which is the latest).

The server name should provide what version you need to join.

Eg. US 26 (v1.7.1.5/Beta 93965) [Reg] [uTC-08:00] - dayzmod.com

So if I update the Beta then everything will work perfectly? Thanks so much for the help <3

dunno if it'll help. I'm running the lateste beta version, but 6 updater is unable to locate the isntallation for ARMA 2:OA which keeps it from properly updating Day Z. so far I've tried the manual install via torrent. multiple attempts to get 6 updater to work, 6 launcher doesn't do a damned thing for me but take up HDD space unfortunately. very frustrating when installing a mod is more agravation than building a new PC for the first time ever was -.-

I am having the same problem. I found I can pick up any item and shoot zombies and pigs. I did not shoot players for fear of being accused of hacking. I have installed the beta through six updater and also manually multiple times. I also got kicked for using side chat even though it was on(go figure). Every time I go into the game I end up back where I was before this patch came out. I also end up with nothing that I picked up previously. I would love some help in this matter. Being invisible is pretty boring. Found out those diamonds are players tents(I followed one).

EVERYTHING WORKS. I got the beta from the ARMA 2 website. I downloaded the actual mod 1.7.1.5 from the US mirror. Doing all of that SHOULD work. Works great for me. Problem for me is that I spawned way out of the map with my m16 and other epic items. But besides that, everything is working beautifully.

I actually have the same issue with everything which I am shocked to hear this. I made a thread myself regarding this issue earlier today, with no responses. I'll try some of the suggestions here to try to fix it. I hope this'll fix it.
