Build 1.7.2 Rolling Update

[bluerising 22]

Has anyone with pre-existing ghillie been able to log in after 1.7.2.1 and not lose it?

This and if I get 1.7.2.1 will I be able to put on my camo?

I just put on my ghillie in 1.7.2.1 and i was fine, everything still there etc.

To those just getting wait for host, or saying you have 1.7.2 and server running 1.7.2.1.

First make sure you uncheck "update beta patch" on six launcher.

Then download the latest beta patch manually(http://www.arma2.com/beta-patch.php/) and install it.

Now download http://cdn.armafiles.info/latest/dayz_anim_v0.4.rar and http://cdn.armafiles.info/latest/dayz_code_v1.7.2.1.rar.

extract them into your addons folder in steamapps\common\arma 2 operation arrowhead\@dayz\addons and replace the old ones(make sure you have your dayz patched to 1.7.2 before you do this).

Play :)

Worked for me and rest of my friends atleast.

So if I do this I can only play on 1.7.2.1 servers, or can I use the 1.7.2.1 patch on the 1.7.2 servers?

That I don't know, but 1.7.2.1 you should be able to play on. 1.7.2 with that patch i don't know.

Edit: Tho my sixlauncher now shows the option to update to 1.7.2.2. Guess I have to wait till my server does the same :)

[Gonzalez (DayZ) 3]

Are there already servers updated to 1.7.2.2?

I want to be in Cherno now! With my absolute awesome gear, which is probably only for me an awesome gear, but I'm afraid I will loose it...

EDIT:

Where can I find which beta build of Arma 2 is installed?

I can't download the second link. It goes to a "page not found" error.

[Budzilla (DayZ) 2]

I would like to know as well, I have yet to see any servers with the 1.7.2.2 update. And which beta version do we need to play on 1.7.2.2 servers? 94444?

[kaylo 11]

94759 and above for 1.7.2.2

If anyone is on and playing 1.7.2.2 I am very curious as to how noticeable the 20% decrease in zombie aggro rage is..?

[Guest]

I've updated my server to 1.7.2.2 and the correct beta, but now this happens:

[Gonzalez (DayZ) 3]

Ah, i found the beta builds.

[reidloS doG 38]

My current problems:

1) My saves aren't saving . At 8:00 P.M. last night I began to gather things in Stary Sobor. The server crashed and I came back to Stary Sobor. From there I went to the SW barrack at the NW airfield. After that, I proceeded east of NW airfield and went to the store in Krasnostav, logged off in the trees west of Krasnostav. I came back on around 11:00 P.M. and found myself back at Stary. I went west of stary after going to the supermarket and logged off. At this point and time I was running beta patch 94876. Now I have downgraded to 94444. I came back to log in and I was located west of the NW Airfield.

2) Zombies and animals appear and disappear. This has happened with both beta patches. I cannot acquire meat because as soon as I run up on the animals, they disappear from my vision and teleport to a different location 100-200 meters away.

All took place on both beta patches.

Ok it worked now. Thanks.

Touche', you are correct. I explained that very poorly.

The fix itself is very easy (simply logging server logins into the database). But the "how" to punish/prevent is proving difficult. Probably worth a serious discussion on the forums in a separate topic. I can detect when someone server hops, or disconnects, but how and when to issue punishment is proving very troublesome.

Perhaps every time someone logs into a server, a timer starts...say 10 mins. That timer decreases to zero. If a player leaves the server before the 10 mins is up, and there is 7 minutes for example left on the clock, they cannot join another server until that 7 mins is up plus a new 10 mins for the new server for a total of 17 min wait to play. If a player is a zero, then no wait (they can join but a new 10 min clock starts).

This greatly increases the time any server hopper has to wait and minimally inconveniences those of us who sometimes HAVE to change servers because of bugs or server crashes right off the bat. Anyone who stays more than 10 mins on a server won't notice the system. If I join and can't play well at night and logoff with 8 mins left, and can't join another server for 18 mins, that is first of all my issue becauuse I choose to not play at night and it's not that bad. A server hopper would find changing more than a server or two at a time adds up fast.

The ping for any of the servers are awful. The lowest I can find is 140. I can usually find servers at 40-60.

Edit: Nevermind. It's back to normal.

Hmmm can not cut animals anymore on 1.7.2.2

zombie senses seems to be fine. will test more and post feedback then.

[ODoyleRulez 195]

I'm seeing some servers with the new hotfix. Funny thing is most of them are password locked. There are a shitload of password protected servers from what I am seeing.

What gives?

[Mitcholas 0]

I can only see like about 20 servers that have updated to 1.7.2.2, almost half being foriegn. How long does it usually take for more to update?

[entak 5]

Game worked fine before I updated, now all I get is a slowly pulsating screen...

[The Janitor 1]

Anyone have a different download mirror for the 94876 beta patch? The offiicial one doesn't work for me
