Hotfix Build 1.7.2.5 Rolling Update

[Travst 8]

I am pretty sure that this has to do with the latest beta patch 95883. when i have this one installed I get stuck at loading screen almost every time. when i roll back to 95819 I never got stuck yet. but there are many servers running 95883 already, so thats problematic. anyway I think that hardly anybody will read this. questions or suggestions are hardly read or replied to here. but maybe it helps that about 950 people said that they still have graphics issues?

I read it. :P I'll take a look at that. Fortunately, I have two computers and left the other unpatched.

As an update to my eternal load message problem, I have tried v4 and v5 servers. It makes no difference, I cannot get into the game no matter which patch the server is running.

Quoted for truth-ness. Can't log in to any of my fave servers or regular ones.

maybe you should try to roll back to beta 95819. this worked for me very well. 95883 gets me stuck at loading almost every time.

thats what i asked for already yesterday... can anyone confirm that many tents were wiped since 1.7.2.5?

Yay for being logged in to random locations after this patch! I love logging in, being where I'm supposed to be at our camp, then logging out, logging back into the same server, and being on the coast! Just what I wanted, to be 12 km from my last point!

Alright so I got the latest Arma 2 Beta and the 1.7.2.5 and I'm getting artifacts in Cherno :(

This is inside a warehouse.

FLUSH your graphics memory people.. the game stores a lot localy, shutting down the client and relaunching it will do nothing, if you have issues, you need to flush your client data..

So do one of these things :

Hold left shift and double tap - twice on the keypad, then release shift and quickly type 'flush'

OR, change something like the memory setting in the video options, to something else, quit the game, relaunch the game, change back to your original settings, quit again. and relaunch the client..

NOT gone. Encountered the bug at the barn / fuel tank ~500m north of the north barracks at NWAF. The one near the deer stand. Also coming from somewhere towards the fire station at NWAF when I was standing next to the north barracks.

There is a pile of dead bodies behind the firestation at the North West Airfield ...

I still have the graphical glitches =/

[joona.kujanen@suomi24.fi 62]

Still seeing graphical bugs/artifacts. Today I saw these at Green Mountain tower and roads leading to it, at dead soldiers. There was a clump of purple & black spikes 10m radious from bodies - this was new to me, before the patch bodies prevented looking at them from hundreds of meters away, now it was only a small area that was bugged (every static dead soldier now created a glitched ball around them). One couldn't see a thing when walking to that sphere of bugged graphics, though. Ground also turned white when facing those glitched bodies and sky turned grey.... familiar stuff.

There was one fellow in our group who didn't have artifacts before this 1.7.2.5 patch, but now he also saw those.

Did both of these no change.

HI, ive had a 2 problems

One where i get logged in and can see the white dots tht show u where zeds etc are all over the screen, i can see zeds through walls and stuff

and i am constantly getting spawned at the coast as if starting a fresh game but with all my stuff, really frustrating as i cant do anything cause the next time i log in im miles away!! this happened twice within 3 hrs or so!

can safely say no artifacts tho!

and yes, everything is updated correctly

Your First issue is not the patch. It's the recuit server setting.

2nd issue because u need to get in a server that has same path version as you on dayz and arma. Or else you get kick to a beach spawn point.

DayZ Commander now has the files for download. After using their download, I was able to get on v5 servers.

[Saucy (DayZ) 38]

Sorry if this has been posted, but going through 55 pages to check..

Every time I joined a new server, my zombie kills, humanity, and headshots all reset and I spawn with the bandit skin on for like five minutes then it changes to the normal one? The latter happens on respawn as well.

[Vittek 6]

I'm having some HIVE (7.3) issues since the latest patch. 1. Destroyed Vehicles don't respawn, waiting for over a week now. 2. During a server restart, the position of saved vehicles gets switched, that's right, log out besides a motorbike, and after the next server restart it's a bus!

Anyone else having that issue?

[uterusmaximus 7]

After some hours of trying and waiting to get the update on the second PC it worked and we could log in.

We player for an hour... checked Grishino for some ammo and so on then went back through the forest to NWAirfield.

First the heaven went grey, then the Barn (far away) right to us began to spawn those artifacts and the area around the NWAirfield too.

First on my computer and 1-2 minutes after the same thing on my girlfriends computer...

=(

I'll try to post an update of what I've heard so far and my own experience.

1. First I had trouble installing update. Thought i had done everything correctly. But when i went to the main menu screen of ARMAII

it still showed 1.7.2.4

2. Someone told me i needed to completely uninstall Six Updater Suite because it was interfering even if I wasn't using it

This was true. I uninstalled it and my game version displayed on the main menu screen of ARMAII changed to 1.7.2.5

3. I experienced l"infinite loading times" when i was trying to join incompatible servers. I tried joining incompatible servers because

I thought I was running updated dayZ when I wasn't. Once I was sure I was running correct version (by checking main menu screen of ARMAII)

I was able to join compatible servers faster than ever. Literally 15 seconds every time.

4. Some times I would get instantly kicked from servers for "bad version". This was because server was displaying that it was 1.7.2.5 when it wasn't. Don't know why.

5. Once in servers I did experience graphical glitches at Stary and NW Airfield. Changing my Video Memory option in advanced video setting to default stopped the glitches for me. This doesn't mean the glitches are "fixed proper". But if all closed patch testers had been using this setting then it's easy to see how the problem could have been believed to be fixed.

6. The glitches did appear once for me after I set Video Memory to default. I toggle the setting and they went away

That's all i can think of right now.. I just woke up.

So right now I am problem free (knock on wood)

I am running beta ***883 & update 1.7.2.5....(it says so on ARMAII's main menu page ;))

I am using graphics setting suggested on BIS's website. (ARMAII Graphics Tweaks)

I am joining servers only running same versions as me

My experience is mine only and is limited to Stary Sobor & NW Airfield

Now for real someone please tell me.....wheres the REAL thread??? The useful one with the useful comments???Please?????

Send me a private message with its location :)

I still get graphical glitches. I think they were coming from the dead bodies.

[orange 2]

Dead bodies seem still binarized incorrectly, causing graphical glitches.

Wanted these bugs fixed by the weekend.

There is some undocumented changes also for the lulz

are these "undocumented changes" the extroadinarily creepy music that now plays almost non-stop? It's cool music but I get confused with what is actually happening in the game and what is the music sometimes.
