Completely invisible

[Reliqua 10]

Date/Time:5/23/2012 9:33 EST.

What happened: So, I was in Bor, searching for nearby deer stands, and it was very dark. I don't like dark. So I switched to another server, US3 or US2... I'm not sure. I respawned in just "Wilderness". I tried to go into third person, and I could. But I was completely invisible. I went back into first person, and walked around, eventually I left the server, and went to a different one. I came back, and I was in the same spot, but it told me this time I was in Pavlovo. I then met up with my friend a little bit south of Pavlovo. On the road between Pavlovo and Kamenka. I shot the zombies that were chasing him with my M1911. He said over Steam Voice Chat that he could see my gun firing, but could NOT see me. We took a second, the gamemode was on regular, so he could see my name tag, but no model. I was running just fine around Bor in third person, but when I joined that one server, it made me invisible. I took a few screenshots showing that I could see the shadow of my Winchester on my back, and the M1911 in my hand.

Where you were: Bor, Pavlovo, Road between Pavlovo and Kamenka

What you were doing: I was searching deer stands, left one server, joineed another, popped up in Pavlovo, killed about 6 zombies that were chasing my friend, Jesse.

*Current installed version: 1.5.8.4

*Server(s) you were on: US2 or US3, RU12, Dallas 14.

*Your system specs:I don't believe that pertains to the current situation as I was running it fine, even with the new patch, but when I joined that ONE server, I just turned invisible.

*Timeline of events before/after error:

-Hunting deer stands on Chicago 3.

-Log off around 2 PM EST to go do some stuff IRL.

-Log back on around 8 or 9 PM EST.

-Update Day Z

-Get on Dallas 14 to loot a couple Deer stands.

-Log off (too dark) to US 2.

-(About 7 AM in game) No third person.

-Log off to RU12 (Light outside now)

-Still no third person.

-Meet up with friend.

EDIT: Also, this bug prevents me from playing Day Z, which I enjoy greatly, as I am invisible to other people, and don't want them to think I am a hacker and get myself a bad reputation. So for now, I cannot play Day Z.

Exact same thing has happened to me, I am completely invisible in 3rd person and to other players. In 1st person looking at my body it appears I have some sort of soldier uniform on.

I'm having the same issue, except it's persisting across multiple servers for me (NY6 is one I remember specifically).

[T3kn0man 3]

Ditto here as well. Invis in third person, wierd skin in first and texture on my whinny.

[QuickSkope 1]

Totally invis ATM, and theres a trunk tent glitch (Posting now)

[Reliqua 10]

It's not just on one server, I guess I should've mentioned that. It's on EVERY server.

i too have this same issue. i am completely invisible and a friend of mine can confirm this. the only part of my body that i can see is my hands when holding the pistol. i have tried switching servers, and deleting all the addon files, but neither have solved it. anyone know of a fix? would suicide and re spawning work?

ditto here

+1 into my todays bug list.... nc

[Silva (DayZ) 1]

Got the same problem, completely invisible character both to myself (3rd party mode) and other players.

[Reliqua 10]

This bug prevents me from playing, as I don't want to be labeled a hacker, so I am going to hide my stuff and go die. maybe this will fix.

it won't... at least for me.

[Reliqua 10]

... It didn't work. ;-;

[Silva (DayZ) 1]

Ive tried deleting characters, deleting my saved profiles in the arma 2 documents directory, reinstalling the whole game and still no difference.

[Sonata (DayZ) 0]

I'm no longer invisible. All I did was die and respawn and everything was fine.

[AbsolutelyDelicious 1]

I am having this and I have a bandit skin.

I don't want to respawn. :\

[Reliqua 10]

Maybe they fixed it. I'm going to go try again. But I killed myself and nothing happened... How did you die, Sonata?

[Silva (DayZ) 1]

Dying didnt fix the problem for me.

My problem started when I ran out of the debug forest to the west.

same here. I'm completely invisible. I tried

- respawning (via menu button)

- letting the zombies eat me

- reconnected router (new ip etc)

- restarted game

- fiddling with the graphics settings (why that would help, i dont know :))

can't seem to find a workaround for this bug :'(

help us rocket :D

I got swarmed and eaten by zombies. Although, that's not what killed me. I was down well into -20k blood and still alive, so I was forced to respawn. When I loaded back in, I no longer had this bug.

[Reliqua 10]

I've tried just about everything, but nothing seems to fix it.

[Silva (DayZ) 1]

Im trying new IP and mac address as my last resort.

[Reliqua 10]

How'd that go, Silva?

[waleran30 0]

new IP does not help, I can tell you that much. Don't know about the MAC address change tho.

:confused:
