  2. steam do this process too to check you own the game before giving you links for the game its standard practice. they will also check if the key is being used by someone else too

    it is either the dzc cdn is down or something it blocking access (ie antivirus/firewall) have you tried deleting the _DZC_CACHE folder in your arma2 oa folder try launching command prompt and typing in ipconfig /flushdns

    Updating Patches on Private Hive

    nps mate you need to uninstall the maps on an update to the code in acp
  17. AmberHelios

    I have no idea what else to do.

    will it let you continue as the 718 patch has acr in it and it flags up if people don't have the acr but will continue to install anyway ... have you tried any of the newer patches to see if they install the youtube video is for cracked copies of the games not real ones i would delete that information out of your registry and start steam as admin validate both arma 2 and arma 2 oa and run both to the menus to get your cd key back into the registry

    Commander Refuses To Update

    its amazing how many times people say my name in times of need he is correct it looks like something is stopping the download have you tried deleting the _DZC_CACHE from your arma folder you can download itt manually like the guy above says but thats just putting a plaster over the problem

    Bad serial key given in setup

    it will only overwrite the registry if you revalidate the file and then start steam as admin
  23. AmberHelios

    Bad serial key given in setup

    you wont have to delete the steam copy you can just reinstall
  24. AmberHelios

    Bad serial key given in setup

    the steam version has overwrote your registry entries not only the cd key the locations of the files the only way you can get it to work again is by overwriting the registry entries the only way you can do this with a retail version is a reinstall. you can then export the registry entries to save them incase steam overwrites them again

    roll back a version of dayz and join an older version or press excape when loading and hit respawn and you will die think that still works
