Ahhh...ill try that. Nope...my in-game sound works with a regular Arma game, but not with the dayz mod any longer.

Im on the same server version also....using 6 Launcher.

Yea. They might be locking them to be able to salvage their vehicles. It is forbidden.

I'd ban out-right for an internationally offensive or racist name. Let them go elsewhere.

No way to "v" hop over barbed wire, no way to remove or destroy barbed wire, so players on this server have been laying barbed wire in front of the entrance of the Firehouse in Cherno, the church in Cherno, etc.

Confirmed....and US 4....what gives? Trying to retrieve their vehicles while locking the community out?

Easiest solution. Just Download the DayZ Mod's recommended Six Updater. http://www.dayzmod.com/downloads.php And play from the Six Launcher. There should be no reason to, and no one should have problems joining and playing. And yes....it automatically enables 1.7.1.1 , and now 1.7.1.2

I down-loaded and installed 1.7.1 and placed 1.7.1 in my filter, then all the servers I try to join freeze my character upon entry, and the other 80% of servers provide a red "x" when I click on them.

After a half a day at trying the do-it-yerself method for Steam, Im using the Six Updater, but still spawn in the barron hills. Is it possible to run out of this barren spot and hit the real game map?

Heh...pretty much this...this is my position. I'll try other servers as well.

Interesting. Okay. Im just sticking with this Six Launcher the devs have. Seems simpler, but just gotta wait out a fix for spawning in the hills.

It appears as though the devs are trying to make it easier with their recommended installer and launcher here. http://www.dayzmod.com/downloads.php

Isn't it steam\steamapps\common\arma 2 operation arrowhead\@DayZ\addons ?

I noticed that arma2oa is in 2 locations. 1. First location is Steam\Steamapps\common\arma 2 operation arrowhead\expansion\beta ^^ that arma2oa.exe version is 92835 2. Second location is Steam\Steamapps\common\arma 2 operation arrowhead ^^ that ArmA2OA.exe version is 87580 -------- I just noticed this and it poses several questions. Is this a conflict, is it normal, shoudlnt both versions be the same? I have been troubled by getting thrown into the inescapable hills when logging into a DayZ server, which prompted me to really look at files. Now keep in my mind that my DayZ files are within the addons folder at Steam\Steamapps\common\arma 2 operation arrowhead\@DayZ\addons Thanks

Im running through steam, and find the same thing happening to me. I had run fine before with 1.7.1 and didnt delete any of those files, but placed 1.7.1.1 in the same 'addons' folder. I spawned in these debugged hills and ran SE and then East for a combined 1/2 hour. I dont seem to be getting anywhere.

Not a majority poll or posts in favor. Thanks for proving me right.

I think the correct solution, which I didnt see typed, but I stumbled upon is to find "Launch Arma2 OA Beta Patch" executable in the steamapps\common\arma 2 operation arrowhead folder and execute it. We'll see. /edit...nope.

Majority post/poll or it didnt happen.

This is what I dont understand: http://i47.tinypic.com/aayps8.jpg 1. Where is this Launch Options Tab? Navigate to it how...where is it? Steam? 2. Browse the Beta directory where? In my arma folder, on the steam interface within the Launch Options Tab? Where. 3. Locate Beta in OA/CO > expansions > Beta. Again, where is this found? How is it navigated to...in the steam client within the library? Where? 4. Select this location for the both beta locations in the launcher. Well...the only launcher Im using is steam, so what does this mean and where is it?

Still I dont get how to update. I downloaded the Green Update at the top of that page, extracted it and executed it. I thought it would be automatic, but I take it that it isn't.because all the 1.7.1.1 servers are still red "x"s I have no understanding of any of this: "for steam once the beta is installed navigate to expansion /beta find the arma2 launcher then go back to the Operation arrowhead main folder and either rename launcher or delete it then paste the copied shortcut to that folder. under launch options i have this set up -beta=Expansion\beta;Expansion\beta\Expansion -mod=@dayz -nosplash /high -cpuCount=4 -world=empty -beta=Expansion\beta;Expansion\beta\Expansion points to the directory on launch if you use steam to launch combined operations. -mod=@dayz points to the mod you want loaded in this case Dayz -nosplash refers to no splash screen on launch saves time loading. /high set the priority for the process to high on the list of process and tasks. -cpuCount= is the number of cores you dedicate to running the game. 2/4/6 depending on what you have under the hood. -world=empty is the background load just shows endless water instead of the amra map. aids in launching faster hope this povides some help good luck in surviving

I see....ok...never did this before. Does it automatically find the proper file location upon extraction?

jesus....which one do I download?

Yea...1.7.1.1 I downloaded from here: http://184.95.47.165/ There are either red 'x's associated with the servers or now Im spawned in the middle of a no-where land. What gives?
