This is now a server specific setting.
If you don't get the "respawn - Custom" option, it'll be randomised.

Also for you, Do you still get the crash if you physically close the launcher before the game?

We do appreciate the work Bohemia staff. More transparent communication would increase confidence in your teams though 😉

Awesome Work DayZ team! Thank you for everything you do!

It means you can play again now if you hop onto experemental servers.

I’m pretty sure 1.12 has broken signature verification for mods, meaning any mod with a signature can’t be verified when the server requires a signature verification check, causing the 0x00040073 error.

Not sure how this would be true entirely, as we have severs maxed out with players, yet some are still unable to connect with the error.
If what you were saying was the case, surely it would affect everyone, no?

I've spoken to 2-3 people whom have got it working by running the launcher in administrator mode.
Perhaps try that?

• locate the DayZLauncher.exe (usually in C:\Program Files (x86)\Steam\steamapps\common\DayZ) and right-click DayZLauncher.exe
• Choose Run as Administrator and accept the pop up.

To clarify with Spaggie, We have LOTS of people who connect just fine, no issues. Just 1 or 2 that are having the issue above. All Namalsk servers are full or 30+, yet these 1-2 individuals just can't seem to get connected.

In addition, this also happens with other loot, when hidden in trees.
For instance, if you accidentially drop your camping stove whilst in a tree for cover, it will appear just above your head in the tree.
You can see the item just above your head, but it does not appear in the vacinity, not does a "take to hands" prompt appear.

I'd like to add my 2 cents too. As well as the above, there is currently no point in having a raincoat, as you will never get warm while wearing one. I suggest removing the inventory from raincoats and allowing them to be placed over your coat in the high-cap vest spot. Running should also give you a heat bonus like you get from a fire, only shorter.
