Crazy graphical glitches after updating to 1.7.2.4 and 95389

This can be fixed by changing your HDR quality to normal. It fixed it for me. Give it a go :).

Changing the video memory to Normal fixed this issue for me, atleast temporarily, will report back after some more playtime

[amazed 17]

After changing VSYNC to enabled and restarting my game I could play for several hours w/o having the issue return. In fact it never did return during that particular session.

HD5870 w/ 12.1

It appears that changing the video memory only fixes things temporarily

To those of you that say that it is fix, please go to either:

+ Balota airfield

+ Northwest airfield

or

+ Military base in Stary Sobor

I've reproduced the bug in all these places and GRAPHIC GLITCH IS STILL THERE

regardless if I:

+ Switch HDR to normal

+ Switch Vsync on or off

+ Change video memory (any setting)

+ Turn shadows on or off

+ In config file, increase or decrease details

+ In config file, set shadow detail to 0

To fix it I have to:

First) Install 1.7.2.3

Then) Avoid any/all locations with barbed wire (because even on 1.7.2.3 the bug is there)

Solution:

Fix the dead spawn zombies model

Fix the barbed wire model

Very informative post. This needs to be fixed ASAP, it really is a game-breaking issue. I can't go anywhere near military zones and have no need of gear from anywhere else, so I don't have much to do. With all the information everyone has provided it shouldn't be too difficult to fix.

This fucking sucks, they need to fucking fix this shit, its broken the game!!! I cant get any decent gear now cause i cant go near these areas!

I find it HARD to believe they tested this version b4 release, i think someone woulda noticed this!!

Getting this graphical glitching also

I was around Cherno and Balota airfield.

Radeon 6870

AMD FX8150

Edit: Tried restarting and changing loads of video settings, no effect...... I also agree it seems linked to military corpses

Hopefully this will get a fix soon. It seems to be one of the most common issues people are getting following these latest updates.

I wouldn't count on it, after all graphics glitches off of barbed wire is NOT A NEW PROBLEM. One of the recent updates just took an existing issue and applied it to even more players. :)

On top of that ruined humvees are causing the same corruption now as well.

add me to the list of people who cannot play game. i logged in at balota so i cannot see to get out.

but no, lets not fix this issue, much more important to add fucking bear traps to the game.

[Guten Traum 0]

Same issue.

Couple of 6870's

[DirtierParrot 0]

Same issue, Radeon HD 6870 with the latest drivers.

[duffman666qc@live.ca 23]

Same Issue, Nvidia Geforce GTX570

Already Tried :

Video Memory Default

HDR Normal

VSync ON/OFF

Reboot

Changing Servers

Trying to Get Rid Of The BarbWire

Cook Kraft Dinner And eat It....

But Nothing Works :(

Need To Find A Fix ASAP

I think these are stretched bodies, Some of them anyway. In cherno I see dead bodies (military and random dead civilians) stretching and it is quite strange and disturbing haha. Also some of this comes from the sky and other random places.

Yeah! I Noticed Some Of The Glitches Looks Like Faces...And Corpses (Other Looks Like BarbWire)

This worked for me: http://dayzmod.com/forum/index.php?/topic/49118-fix-for-the-1724-artifacting/

That didn't for me.

the shift + - and flush thing worked for a bit. But that's it.

I think we're gonna have to wait until Monday for Rocket to read the forums. I hope he's partyin' and having fun while we're playing games ;)

Thanks for the first attempt to tackle this in depth.

Wild speculation about causes and fixes doesn't help.

I've been to Berezino and Stary Sobor today, and on both locations the so called fixes did nothing.

At best, they slightly reduced the artifacts, but they didn't fix the problem.

I can see why it would appear to be fixed when looking at a military spot from afar, but when sitting right at the camp in stary, nothing helps.

I'd recommend cross-testing this with all graphic options and with dead bodies on/off.

I can not confirm barbed wire being the issue. We went so far to place our own in the wilderness, and could look at it just fine. Every military spot we came across meant trouble tho.

Using an ATI 6900, latest driver

Calm your shorts. They did test, but testing with a few dozen testers cannot possibly match being tested (it is Alpha, so you playing IS testing) by several tens of thousands of different combinations of computer systems and specs. Many more issues will come up when the versions "hit the street" so to speak. Try to be helpful if you are getting the issue and post where and what your specs are.
