Hi all after following the instructions on the forums/wiki on installing day z (which i have repeated four times, just in case) i continuously come up with the same errors when trying to enter a server: Invalid Key/'player' uses modified data file. I am playing with the Retail (hard Copy) version of Day Z. I installed the latest version of the beta from here: http://www.arma2.com/beta-patch.php And attempted to install this patch from here:http://www.arma2.com/supply/game-updates , but to no avail (failed @25% extraction) Any help would be greatly appreciated as i am desperate to play! (annual help a noob day) i have tirelessly searched the forums but it seems no-one has this issue Thanks in advance. :)
Ok, so after following the instruction for installation of day Z on the wiki/forums (basically the same), whenever i try and enter a server i get kicked or it fails due to 'modified data file' it is either this error, or another which states i must change the keys to be able to play? i have tried reinstalling the game 3 times but to no avail. following the instructions to the letter. any suggestions? :huh: Thanks.
