So DayZ worked fine for me night before last. But last night, I started having issues. At first, I was getting "Failed to create Direct3D graphical engine" which was baffling. I verified the files through steam and 2 came up as corrupt/missing and were re-downloaded. Now, when I try to log in, the game says that I am missing patch 1.60.93825. I have followed the guides as far as setup of DayZ, and it worked previously. Has something changed? Did my verification/reinstall of a couple of Arma files screw something up? Any help would be appreciated. Thanks!

So.... back with the same exact issue after applying 1.60.94444. I get the version in red when trying to join a game, and after verifying files through steam, it finds 2 missing files and completely fucks my direct3d or whatever. I'm stumped again. I really don't want to uninstall and re-install yet again. PLEASE HALP! Bump since I didn't see this on the first page. Sorry if I'm blind and shit =(

Fixed my issue by completely uninstalling and re-installing everything. It wasn't fun, but it worked perfectly. Thanks for all the attempts at figuring it out guys.

I'm home if you're still alive! Lol :D Tried running the beta installer again just for the hell of it. Now, I'm getting the "Failed to create Direct3D graphical engine" error again. I'm 99% sure if I run the Steam file verification, it will replace the same 2 files as before, and the game will launch. And again, the server list will report that I do not have the correct version installed. It seems to be either one problem or the other I get to choose from. I'm stumped on this one.

Sounds good. I'll bump this thread immediately after getting home. Keep an eye on it around 9:15-9:30 EST and you'll see it. Thanks again for all the help sir.

Bumpin' to keep it on page 1! A friend has suggested that I just nuke the whole installation and start over using Worrom or Sixupdater. I really don't want to. Any ideas?

I also have an asus G75. I play with everything on the default settings (normal/high) and at 1920x1080. I have not experienced a drop in FPS or any kind of performance issues. Although, I am running the latest beta driver for the GTX660m from the Nvidia website. Maybe try that out. EDIT: Battery power is a BAD idea. I can't even run Diablo on battery power. PLUG IT IN SON!

Bumpity. Really wanna play!
