Hello Vextrela.
Is this just on a specific server or multiple servers are affected?
Also have you tried to disable Steam cloud sync and delete the DayZ documents folder?

All servers and everything. Bro I reset my entire PC. I've deleted every single file every single where by hand over and over again. I didn't hit the respawn button now it wants to fade me to uncon instead of loading a server.

Can you check if experimental works? And if so, disable the Steam cloud sync, delete the contents of your DayZ folder and copy over the DayZ Exp folder contents into it.

That's a great idea

It was just having loading errors and crashing. Really does seem like it has something to do with not hitting respawn after dying. Seems that it's causing an issue on the servers' side. The servers are seeing me as dying.

Like when the game goes to load the server, the lobby view of yourself acts as if it's going uncon. Like....that's not in my files.

But you also mention it occurs across all servers. Not all servers share that one character.

Yeah all servers and all characters, but it always resets to the dead character in lobby. So with the exp files copied over, I'm just getting a "wrong version" error at this point. Any way I can trick it into thinking it's the current version?

Here's another report using the Experimental

can you please send us a screenshot? Also is it possible you are copying files from your exp client installation into the stable client installation?

What I suggested was to move the files from DayZ Exp folder in DOCUMENTS into DayZ folder in Documents if the experimental loads without any issues.
