Probably not, because I've tried using files from friends that can currently play the game, but thanks for the offer! UPDATE: I straight up deleted my @DayZ folder and I can still somehow run the mod, although it still gives me the message that I'm running 1.5.7.

Bump, Maybe I can get some feedback..

You can try downloading the .rar files directly from dayzmod.com/downloads And then unzipping the files into the correct folder, Caution, for me for some reason, I couldn't unzip directly into the correct directory, I had to extract them somewhere else and then copy paste. I'll go ahead and try that again, but currently I'm still unable to run, same error. Stuck in 1.5.7

No I do not run the game with six updater. I use the installer from www.worrom.com To download DayZ and while it worked in the beginning, It no longer works now. Additionally, as the first post says, I also have tried to place the DayZ files manually in the correct folder. That also does not work.

Hi All, Having problems updating to Version 1.5.8.2 of DayZ First off I bought the Amazon version of ArmA 2 and all those threads instructing people how to get DayZ working, even the one specifically for Amazon buyers, didn't work for me. I installed both versions, ran them both once, updated them to 1.6 and created the "@DayZ/Addons" folder in the right directory and all that jazz and it still didn't work for me. And that Shortcut stuff about "-mod=@dayz" or "-mod=@DayZ" Didn't work for me either (Unless all that was supposed to do was to make "@dayz" show up under my expansions window in the main menu of ArmA 2. TL;DR => I had to check/enable the @dayz option under expansions in order to be able to play the mod. After doing all that I was able to play the game and I had a great time, but then earlier today the new update rolled out and I had to update my DayZ files. At first I just used the DayZ installer from http://www.worrom.com/ [As I'm posting this I see they've released an update and will try the new installer after I post this to see if it fixes my issue] And tried to join a server, but ever server I've joined so far gives me the following message: "You are running and incorrect version of DAYZ_CODE, please download this file from dayzmod.com/downloads (You are running version 1.5.7 and the server is running 1.5.8.2)" So since the worrom.com installer didn't work for me I downloaded the new files from dayzmod.com/downloads, unzipped them and put them in the "...@DayZ/Addons" folder. Still. same error, stuck in 1.5.7.. I re-downloaded the files, "You are running 1.5.7..." I had my friends, who were playing successfully with the new updates, send me their code file specifically so that I could copy and replace it with my crap version. Stuck in 1.5.7 Then I had my friends send me their entire Addons folder, Stuck in 1.5.7 Then I uninstalled both ArmA2 and ArmA2:OA, and retried downloading files on my own, and using the files from friends. STILL Stuck in 1.5.7 Now, I'm fairly savvy when it comes to technology, (i.e. I'm sure I downloaded the right files, put them in the right place, and unzipped them, etc.) But I'm at a loss here of what is wrong and how to fix it. I'm running Windows7 64-bit and had the mod working earlier today. So any suggestions or help? Tried the new updater, v1.45 Doesn't work.
