Armored (DayZ) 0 Posted July 13, 2012 having this same issue even on servers that are 1.7.2.2.............. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Watnoob 2 Posted July 13, 2012 Can you give me one of the servers you've connected to that gives you black screen?DayZ - NZ10 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
LukeSkywalkers 31 Posted July 13, 2012 The problem is the servers I find are just tagged with "1.7.2" and not "1.7.2.1" or "1.7.2.2"...Anyway how do I downgrade again? People say you shouldn't use 1.7.2.2 cause it wasn't supposed to be released yet and is still not fully done yet. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

XAM 48 Posted July 13, 2012 DayZ - NZ10That server is a 1.7.2.1 one. So that's the reason you get black screens on that one. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

XAM 48 Posted July 13, 2012 (edited) Everyone who's getting black screens. Could you try connecting to one of the following servers: SE 12, RU 2, RU 3, NL 13, UK8, US 172, US 371All of those are currently version 1.7.2.2.I connected to "SE 12", and I got image there. It's very dark due to night though. Edited July 13, 2012 by XAM Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

XAM 48 Posted July 13, 2012 (edited) Just connected to U.S 172 and 371 and still did it, it's not a server compatibility issue...I just tried connecting to US 172 and I got black screen there as well.Could you try SE 12 even though you might get bad latency? Cause I was in there and got image. I'm going to try connect there again.There's a new arma 2 beta out: ftp://downloads.bistudio.com/arma2.com/update/beta/ARMA2_OA_Build_94945.ziphttp://www.arma2.com/beta-patch.phpThere's also a new DayZ patch out: 1.7.2.3 Edited July 13, 2012 by XAM Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
gun_uk 6 Posted July 13, 2012 I managed to connect to a 1.7.2 server OK then connected to another to find a more populated one and I get the black screen with it sometimes flashing to full colour for a split second... there is also no sound too. No matter was server I try, its all the same.Connecting with Six Launcher with everything up to date, installed by Six Updater/ launcher !So far this 1.7.2 release is baaaad.......

oifriendlyfire 46 Posted July 13, 2012 This forum has a couple of fixes listed...namely, making sure, if youve taken todays update from six launcher on or after 1201pm gmt-6, then you must find a server that is compatible with.2. Or you could do as some others have done, to play on servers without this update, you can dload a previous version, and replace the file in the folder. good luck!

psylnz 34 Posted July 13, 2012 I had the same problem. Unfortunately I decided to delete my ArmA content from steam, and am know waiting while the whole thing downloads again. Also unfortunately for me, during this crap I spawned on the beach - lost an AKM, a Coyote Pack (the big one), and a tent. :( Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
