No "local" servers in server list and stuck at loading combo

[break 88]

Hi guys, seen this all over the forums but I thought I'd post this too, hopefully getting the point across.

So a couple days ago, before patching up, still using 1.7.4 I logged out in Novy Sobor. About an hour later I logged in on the coast at Komarovo with all my gear. Thats cool, not too bothered really. (This was all before 1.7.5 was released).

So the next day I updated to 1.7.5 logged in fine at night just too see the skin changes. It was 2am after work so I only stayed on for 2 minutes. Everything worked fine, I was a dirty ole bandit.

Today I get stuck at loading, and I've tried probably for about an hour at different times to log in with no luck. I've not got past the 2nd loading screen before Set-up Complete.

Also I now have little or NO servers in my browser. I'm not using six launcher, I've updated both patches manually since early April with every install working fine before this one.

I'm running the latest patch. 1.7.5 with the latest Arma 2 Beta 95883.

it's barely working for me with .74 patch, I can play on my first login, but then I will get stuck at the loading screen if I had to switch servers, so I had to restart my comp everytime I have to change server

Ok just an update.

I've tried this morning @ 11:30am GMT and my server browser is still broken, giving me the options of either RU/PL/JP or AU servers.

I did manage to join a UK server by typing the IP Address and Ports in manually and it worked first time. Loading was faster than ever before and the zombie animations are great.

Not too sure if the artifacting has been fixed, but I never suffered with this problem too much in 1.7.4.

My fix in 1.7.4 was to turn Vertical Sync on and off again. This worked fine for me.
