What happens when you try to join a server?

EDIT: for spelling failures.

I second this.

I followed the one that was on the DayZ mod website - it has moved to here... http://dayzmod.com/forum/showthread.php?tid=408 I followed EXACTLY. Worked fine for me.

I've been totally avoiding using the Six Updater thing - I've been unpacking required files manually. I did try the Updater - and ran into problems. So I stopped poking at it and stayed with the method that seems to work for me. Further to the Updater - it was horribly late at night, I was super tired and mostly on the way to a drunken stupor. I cannot discount user-error yet :)

The one in green, at the top :)

Ended up doing this as well.

Do you have another weapon? If not, once you equip the torch (I think) it stays in your hand until you equip pistol (whereby you lose the torch), or a primary weapon (like a rifle).

I had trouble using the Six Updater, so I grab the files manually and extract them directly into the 'addons' directory. It's a pain if I switch between servers running different versions, as I have to extract the right core files, but I get over it fairly quickly. I'm sure there is a way to create profiles to launch based on what version core files you are using - I've just not had the time to research it out. As for the "no entry bin/config.bin/CfgWeapons" error - just ignore it.

I think it takes 2-3 body shots from the Makarov to put down a Z. Single head shot only, though :)

Not every night time is pitch black - there are nights where the moon is out. Like others have said, search for a server that is still in daytime. Or use flares :)

There maybe some 'offline' mods for Arma 2 that have a Zombie theme. Ask the Internet for help!! :)

Personally, I think the addition of coughing is a good thing. Makes it more of a challenge to sneak around :) If coughing *has* been removed from 1.7, then I hope enough voices are raised to help make it come back. Just my opinion, of course ;)
