mikhail 65 Posted July 13, 2012 manually upated to 1.7.2.3 and 94876 (from 1.7.1.5 and 94444)no issues getting on a server with the correct versions. (I did notice a few servers that said they were updated to 1.7.2.3 but were were not.)I can't comment on the gear as I was starting with a new character. Still waiting for the server with my camp to update and make it back there to see if my camp (tents and cars) is still there. It has disappeared and reappeared a few times since 1.7.2 came out.

Eray (DayZ) 1 Posted July 13, 2012 Delete Steam/steamapps/common/arma 2 operation arrowhead/expansion/beta folder then simply just run the desired beta .exeWhat you call "Beta folder" is "@Dayz" folder, right? :D Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
bladerunner 11 Posted July 13, 2012 (edited) Can I update to 94876 through Six Updater? Or, do I have to do it manually. I am pretty rust when it comes to manually updating my files. Thanks! Very excited.My experience with 6UPDATER is slim but i would assure you that it would automatically update the files to the LATEST build. So no, I don't think that's possible.The manual process is pretty simple though, and nothing to be afraid of. Download 94876. Execute installer. Go to steam/steamapps/common/arma 2 operation arrowhead/Expansion/beta and copy arma2oa.exe. Paste and replace in operation arrowhead folder (might wanna backup older .exe though) and that's it!EDIT: yeah, pretty sure you have to delete your beta folder clean previous to executing the installer. Sorry!When I try to install that Build 94876 it tells me 'Wrong CD Key'.What do I do?Ignore it and keep installing Edited July 13, 2012 by Blade Runner Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

tickle_me_jesus 37 Posted July 13, 2012 What you call "Beta folder" is "@Dayz" folder, right? :DNo, the BETA is connected to arma 2 OA, so not to DayZ in particular.Follow the instructions as mentioned. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
LastManOnEarth 14 Posted July 13, 2012 OK, I'll be playing this evening with a friend and just to clarify real quick: I see that Beta 94945 is the latest build available...so we shouldn't update to that, and should just stick with 94876 instead? Pretty much 1.7.2.3 is not working correctly with 94945, definitively? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
void.false@gmail.com 300 Posted July 13, 2012 thx for the patch. My character was wiped. Bye bye DMR, Coyote, GPS and NVG.Anyway it's much more fun to shoot noobs with Enfield from the clock tower. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Braeburn 7 Posted July 13, 2012 I'm running 1.7.2.3 & 94876 and I can log into servers running 1.7.2.3 just fine. At a -huge- performance decrease though. Until then, my frame rate was pretty smooth with the options I had toggled. However, now, it's in single digits unless I have Post Processes disabled completely, and even then it's pretty low.Not sure if it's just me or not since people seem to be having no problems. Wasn't a server issue either because my main menu was lagging as well.On the plus side, I was able to wear my ghillie suit. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

ctrl-alt-DESTROY! 21 Posted July 13, 2012 (edited) running 1.7.2.3 + 94786 (94878, according to SU)loaded right in on my same char, but 2 others in my clan spawned on the coast. a quick death fixed that no problem.everything seems fine with the update (drove from electro up north a ways with no problems, though i never aggroed any zombies).the only 'problem' so far is it seems our military v3s has despawned. has this happened to anyone else? the same thing happened to our military offroad on 1.7.1.5, something i read others also had happen.will post more later tonight after a proper group sesh...

mlippold@hotmail.com 0 Posted July 13, 2012 Those who "lost" your characters.They weren't lost, they weren't transferred due to the change in PlayerID and PlayerUID. Vipeax is going to run the transfer query for me now... this will move those old characters who weren't listed with a playerUID (string) for those who "lost" their characters. :huh: rocket - Is there anything I can PM you to try to figure out why my character didn't get transferred (still)?

Do it by opening Combined Operations and browsing the servers in "Multiplayer"(you might have to add a few parameters to your shortcut for the game to recognize both the beta patch and DayZ.
