Experimental 1.7.2.1 test patch

[deetee 5]

Are you able to put on camo/ghillie in 1.7.2.1 ?

[Ethhen 0]

Trying to install the 1.7.2.1 update, I downloaded and unrar'd to my @DayZ addons folder, and i re-opened SixUpdater and SixLauncher and nothing happened, apparently i'm still running 1.7.2?

Help Please?

SE 3 - 6 has wrong timezone since we've been testing in other timezone. Ill fix it later.

No fleshed out changelog until 1.7.2.2 later this evening.

Sixlauncher rolls back to 1.7.2 without telling you it did so, since it thinks 1.7.2 is the official release. Every time you run it you need to re-update the 1.7.2.1 files. One way to run 1.7.2.1 is to modify the beta launcher to include ;@dayz in the run statement. (You can find this on the wiki)

[bluerising 22]

All I care about is when I can finally put on my camo.

Then you will connect and die five minutes in.

Is the outfit hotfix included in 1.7.2.1 or 1.7.2.2? Can someone thats played 1.7.2.1 already confirm?

1.7.2.1 is released now, and 1.7.2.2 is due out today or tomorrow. So I'd say the testing is over for now.

Can someone tell me how to install the 1.7.2.1 patch??

[facoptere 180]

Currently running v1.7.2.1/beta 94876 on my server.

Saw a post on Reddit that says that Beta Patch 94876 fucks DayZ up.

I don't know about that. Played on a server with it yesterday and it was pretty smooth.

Although, I wasn't using 1.7.2.1

Just played 1.7.2.1 with 94876 for the last ~3 hours... seemed to work perfectly ok for me?

^same@AzzurrA

i had no problems at all with 1.7.2.1 and beta 94876. maybe its because i do everything manually with no updaters etc. or luck ;)

anyway there were a lot players inside the servers.

Maybe you forgot there are 3 parts in dayz :

1/ client files

2/ arma oa patch

3/ server files (@hive/*)

I set up my server with 1 and 2 this wednesday, since 3 was no issued public, and it went fine. This morning I installed latest 2 and latest 3 since both have been issued last evening. Since this morning my server does not work.

Maybe you played with a server with another combination.

Exactly the same error as facoptere gets on my server.

Tried both hive versions.

The 94876 patch upgrades the version of the game to 1.61, all the other patches were at 1.60 so I don't think the new patch is backwards compatible with older versions. I've seen servers running pre-94876 telling me I have the wrong version, my 1.61 is in red and says required version 1.60. Also there is the red 'X' next to the server name so I think that's the issue.

But once the servers get updated then it should be fine.

Hi,

here writes a happy Arma X user.

I'm finally able to play with the latest beta patch (94876) and version 1.7.2.1. That's the first good thing this test patch brought. I'll keep my eyes open watching for bugs etc.

[facoptere 180]

I have just done an unconditional restore of an unpatched version of arma2 + arma2oa, then applied ARMA2_OA_Build_94700 patch.

I have now v1.7.2.1/94700, and I have still the same error (below). So it is not the arma2oa patch the problem, it is the hive.

Error in expression < compile format ["%1",_data];

_status = _result select 0;

_myArray = [];

if (_s>

Error position: <_result select 0;

_myArray = [];

if (_s>

Error Undefined variable in expression: _result

[facoptere 180]

Previous version of hive installed, same problem...

Worse, my server did a core dump!

Maybe some server-side hive problem...

I resign.
