Idk.. I guess I consider it fixxed? After 6-7 reinstalls.. it is still saying invalid c.d. keys but is now letting me in games! Yey. thanks for all the help <3

Yes I have, and the invalid c.d. key message pops up As stated, the closest I got (don't know what I entered) was I became a bird and flew around aimlessly.. got bored after realizing I wasn't going to spawn in and quit Still the issue of steam saying "1 file not validated" Reinstalled, am running as admin, still not installing properly.

Thanks! I will try both of these and edit in a reponse. Another problem is that I have no "combined operations" run as option.. I bought it as "combined operations" but can't figure out how to run it as so.. I hope thats not the reason why it won't work and its a stupid detail I did not add!! Edit Tried validating both, both said 1 file failed to validate. I have tried reinstalling multiple times.. is there another way?? It doesn't give the option to reinstal the single file that it didn't verify

Still cant get into a single game D: Tried reinstalling 3 different times.. no dice. followed the directions on this forum to a 't' and watched the video and followed side by side.. Says a picutre in my GUI (addons, @dayz) is missing. Other then that, just freezes once it gives me a name / alive time (stuck @ 0 minutes) Edit quick Since I can't figure out how to post screen shots, but all the information it says when I try to boot up a game is: battleeye client: initialized (v1.201) Registration failed: invalid cd key Battleeye client: Server requiring client version 1.201. Up-to-date Battleeye client: server computed guid: 51ead67a70c... (big string of numbers / letters) I have, at best, gotten into a single game where I took possession of a bird and flew around aimlessly for 5 mintues waiting to spawn in and never did.

Okay! So I did this and everytime I join a game it just sets me at a black screen for a while, then pops up with a : name (sargent someone, time alive i assume and a disconnect button but it keeps me there. Another thing I would like to mention is whenever I try to load it comes up "Invalid c.d. key".. which I just bought this from steam and am slightly confused by.

1) Okay, I'll try all that and hopefully post a successful response! @ manvswild I downloaded it all straight from steam.. I'll try from this site and hopefully that will fix it! Thanks for the quick responses

I have heard countless amounts of great things about this game and decided to buy it but seem to be having problems even joining games. I fully downloaded it from Steam and it said something about an invalid c.d. key.. but still let me on. Most of the games I try to join have a red version on it (i have 1.62 but it requires 1.62.101480) A game I finally did join had some players typing.. but I was a bird and could only fly around aimlessly. I am very confused about even getting in to a game.. much less playing it. Anyone willing to big brother me into this amazing experience would be greatly appreciated!
