Humbabwe 16 Posted July 21, 2012 Hey guys,So, since the latest patch (1.7.3.5?) and simultaneously, since I've been using the Six updater and launcher, I have begun to have major problems, all of which can be found throughout the bugs page, but none of which have answers to them. I don't know what to do anymore.I can deal with most bugs: Teleporting, interface problems, loot spawning problems, et cetera... but since this newest patch, I have two major problems.1. Since about a week ago, whenever I log off and on I retain my stats for blood, food, water, and location, but am completely wiped of inventory and am started with painkillers, and one bandage... no matter what I had collected up until the time I logged out, or how long I waited before logging out.2. As of today, I can barely stay in a server for 5 minutes (max) without losing connection with the host. (no signal received for __ seconds) These two things added together make the game literally unplayable, as you can imagine. Any advice would be much appreciated. The best would be if someone could walk me through a reinstall, cuz I'm not great with computing and I don't want to have to pay for the game again (I know that shouldnt be the case, but I fear it anyway)One thing which may be very important, and may not, is that I keep getting this message: No entry 'bin\config.bin/RsclnGameUI/RscUnitInfoSoldier/Background.type'. Dont know what that means, but it is what it is... Anyway, thanks in advance for any feedback,Brian 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Drogur (DayZ) 169 Posted July 21, 2012 So...lets start to hear what version you are running...and what version is the server running? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Max Planck 7174 Posted July 21, 2012 (edited) I'm using 1.7.3 and the 95208 beta, I have not experienced either of those problems. It's pretty laggy but that might be the server I play on. I don't want to leave it because bicycle.It's definitely not unplayable for me. Edited July 21, 2012 by Max Planck Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Humbabwe 16 Posted July 21, 2012 See, Im not sure how to answer that... Im running the latest DayZ version (1.7.3.5?) and I have the latest beta patch for OA... I dont really pay attention to the servers and what they are running, but its the same for every server I go in. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Humbabwe 16 Posted July 21, 2012 How does one find out which beta they are running? And how does one get the newest beta? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Drogur (DayZ) 169 Posted July 21, 2012 It is very important that you make sure that the server you shoose is running the same level of version as you....also make sure that that server is an official one.....connected to the hive....Latest Dayz is 1.7.2.3 http://se1.dayz.nu/latest/Latest Beta is 95208 http://www.arma2.com/beta-patch.php 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Drogur (DayZ) 169 Posted July 21, 2012 How does one find out which beta they are running? And how does one get the newest beta?In ARMA, in window before multiplayer, right down corner.....look always here...dont trust Six. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
JJones 0 Posted July 21, 2012 (edited) how do you know if the server is official and connected to the hive?I'm having the same inventory problem. Makes all progress pointless.Also I thought the newest beta was backwards compatible with previous versions on servers Edited July 21, 2012 by JJones Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Humbabwe 16 Posted July 21, 2012 In ARMA, in window before multiplayer, right down corner.....look always here...dont trust Six.So Six Updater may not be installing the latest beta? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

JJones 0 Posted July 21, 2012 to get arma to run the newest OA beta I had to find the beta launch icon in the programs folder. Now I run it and it doesn't run out of steam which doesnt matter too much to me. Anyways that fixed arma running with the 1.60 . but now of course I get this problem of inventory and totally not worth playing Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Humbabwe 16 Posted July 21, 2012 Diky moc... I've just updated the beta... lets see how it goes Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Delta Smoke 01 765 Posted July 21, 2012 So Six Updater may not be installing the latest beta?What he means is only use six updater tp update datz/beta. R click your preset in six and launch the game. I never join games from six. I use the normal arma list for that. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Red Beard 14 Posted July 21, 2012 it is neiither your client or the server you are connection to that is the problem, the problem is HIVE the Dayz backend which store and transmit loot, locations and character locations to the servers you play on. HIVE has been royaly fooked the last 3-4 days. The best bet you got is to stop playing for like 2 days and see if the HIVE backend has become more stable.

I would assume the forums would be blowing up with complaints about this... I didnt play yesterday or the day before for that reason, and when I came back it was just worse. I love this game. Been waiting to play it since I first beat Res. Evil 1, around 15 years ago. *softly sobbing* Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

The problem is at your end. It's a user error. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
BabylonDK 7 Posted July 21, 2012 Drogur if you join 50% of the US servers you can't join or you will be frozen after 10-15 minutes..I was playing on US73, after 10 minutes a yellow-cain appeared, and stayed there for over 20 minutes.. No one could join, and if you looted it would take a hour to get the loot, and if you join a EU server after you will be setted back to there the yellow-cain started >.< Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
