Help! When I try to join a dayz server it says bad serial number given in setup
=DiG= Zgraphz replied to Kaos97's topic in DayZ Mod Troubleshooting
There's several hundred reason's why this is happening, the best way to avoid this situation is to completely purge your computer of anything arma 2 related, there is a corrupted file somewhere in your folder's that is not allowing you to play/launch/connect...etc once you have uninstalled all arma 2 make sure your registry files are deleted as well, by going into Regedit, look for bohemia interactive, and battle eye and anything else related to arma, such as dayz commander(dojshStudio's) withsix... everything. once that is completed, restart your pc, Install Arma 2, Wait for it to install, Select Play, (accept/ok/next) anything that pops up, main menu, log out. Install Arma 2 OA,Wait for it to install, Select Play, (accept/ok/next) anything that pops up, main menu, log out. Install Arma 2 BAF(British Armed Forces), Wait for it to install, Select Play, (accept/ok/next) anything that pops up, main menu, log out. Install Arma 2 PMC(Private Military Company), Wait for it to install, Select Play, (accept/ok/next) anything that pops up, main menu, log out. you seemed to have done just about every step to fixing this, if what i said above does not help, im afraid a freash clean reinstall of your windows might need to happen, my OS registry files got screwed up and i couldn't play arma for weeks until i got a windows installer disk -
Bad version, server rejected connection (but everything is up to date!)
=DiG= Zgraphz replied to thebird956's topic in DayZ Mod Troubleshooting
Oh lord, you kids are gonna kill me. Open steam. Right click arma 2, Select properties, Select Local Files, Select Verify System Integrity Cache. DO THIS TO EVERY SINGLE ARMA GAME IN YOUR LIBRARY!!! THEN!!!!! run every game at least one time through steam before you even think about touching dayz commander HAR HAR HAR -

Day Z Operation arrowhead issues...

bean king is rank, his name is statik -
I've been playing dayz for quite some time now, I've been playing wasteland a lot with my group, but I've been wanting to play dayz, I just don't have anyone to play with and I'm completely over soloing. So I'm 26, i live in USA California, i play usually in the evenings through out the night. Im usually a sniper,pilot, usually the reckless one that doesn't mind dieing or loosing his gear. i have a good internet connection, so playing in different timezone doesn't affect me. unless it's like 300ping then it might be an issue. i dont care if your experienced or not, im looking for people in the older range. A group of mature adults, you can be young but i don't want to hear the chipmunks talking, so please. I'am looking for people around the ages of 18+. I'll do just about any map, as long as is interesting, and it's not namlask, or however it's spelled.

=DiG= Zgraphz replied to Buckit (DayZ)'s topic in DayZ Mod Troubleshooting
just delete every thing, because you bought the game off amazon *fail* sorry but ugh amazon? lol sorry man but you gotta re-download the actual game, then manually install the beta patch into your Arma OA folder, do not put them in your user files, it has to be program files. and you might want to talk too.. shit i'll message you his name, hes good at this shit. edit: TMW Se7eN Hes good at retail versions -

Battleye Failed To Update
=DiG= Zgraphz replied to mrmackeymkayyy's topic in DayZ Mod Troubleshooting
bravo, that was a nice way of showing your problem. have you had this problem on other servers, or just the one you joined? are you using a controller as well? the software in some joysticks and hand-pads screw with Battleye, sounds ridiculous but it's been known to happen. -
Arma 2 Sprocket install not installing some important files
=DiG= Zgraphz replied to Courage (DayZ)'s topic in DayZ Mod Troubleshooting
humm, i don't think i can help you there. Did they give you an installer or some way to retrieve the files, it seems your missing pieces of it, if at all possible you could try getting a full version download from their website, you'd have to talk in BI's Forums about this, or ask one of the site mods, they should be able to point you in the right direction. -

Arma 2 Sprocket install not installing some important files

where did u buy the game from? -
hes right, usually anti-virus programs will have a silent mode, game mode, streaming mode etc selecting these feature lowers the bandwidth needed and cpu needed to run it's usual task. It is NOT recommended for you to turn your anti-virus off or firewall off for any reason when playing online internet games. open your start bar, type run and then in the text box type msconfig , then you can see what items are running, what items start up, and you can choose weather or not to have then enabled or disabled. Last but not least. Interference!!! wireless connections on a g type or n type run on a 2.5 ghz frequency, some cordless phones frequency run on a 2.5 ghz which screw with signal, Ovens screw with signals. and smartphones that are connected via internet to your wireless router takes a huge amount of bandwidth just being connected *just sitting doing nothing* check your task manger to see what is open and running and see if you can disable a few things, normally those are all the little weird things i've had problems with over the years with lag and video games, hope this helps

=DiG= Zgraphz replied to Anmarista's topic in DayZ Mod Troubleshooting
open battle eye on your computer and in add/remove program feature and uninstall battle eye, try updateing from the website, and install it manually and make sure that the target file locations are all correct with the items ur using to launch, it's important to make sure your registry keys and files have the same locations as well. -
Low FPS with low GPU & CPU usage
=DiG= Zgraphz replied to forest's topic in DayZ Mod Troubleshooting
i agree with you 90% the gpu is more like a piggie back off the processor and the Read and write speed of the HDD it's installed to, your g-card, processor and ram at times are sitting there tapping their foot *in a sense* waiting for the HDD to dish the data out. your poorly optimization of arma 2 couldn't be more correct, when they made it, the standard 7200rpm harddrive can not dish it out fast enough because all Hard drives have mechanical moving parts, which takes time, a SSD how ever has no mechanical moving parts, thus eliminating the response time from HDD to processor and then from Processor to GPU. -
post processing makes it easier for you to see whos shooting their guns, video memory is the application trying to be a wanna b video card so video memory should be default. vsync off, visability to 1600 10,000 is pointless. Arma 2 allows 10,000, dayz does not. ummm atoc are for grass and trees and ppa is just a sharp liner around edges that look shitty, but if the settings inside your video card are not set to application controlled then it's really not going to do anything except put a lil unneeded stress on the v-card. make sure startup parameters are correctly type or type if they are not such as "-winxp" "-maxmem=2047" "-Cpucount=(#of cpus you have) make sure double quotes suround the text with the -before lettering Edit: I was playing around with my nvidia control panel and found out something that was very interesting. When i turned some of the settings in my g-card control panel to minimal settings instead of increasing the performance, i started adding visual affect for quality, for some reason it actually increased my fps in dayz, then i tried playing other games, they all were lacking in fps until i changed the settings back to what they originally were. that fliping weird man

Low FPS with low GPU & CPU usage
=DiG= Zgraphz replied to forest's topic in DayZ Mod Troubleshooting
its ok i say steam alot because i have it and normally trouble shoot steam issues, just ignore it if it happens again. is there a way you can install arma 2/arma2 OA to the SSD it's self without being on the HDD, i don't know if that's possible but if you can you should look into trying that out. -

Low FPS with low GPU & CPU usage
=DiG= Zgraphz replied to forest's topic in DayZ Mod Troubleshooting
in-game settings that should be avoided no matter how badass your computer is, video memory:default | vsync disabled | and post proscessing*for you* Disabled so your saying your HDD is accelerated by a SSD? so you dont have a seprate drive to install steam and or arma 2 to it? -
I would wish when people added their specs they would add their Harddrives. the game revolves around Processor,Hard drive(read/write Speed) and GPU, Ram is always good but isn't needed, i've seen people with 8 gigs of ram get 80-90fps in town. You got the fancy 3.5 processor and a healthy gpu, Try sticking the dayz game on a ramdisk, if that speeds it up even a little, then your bottle necking with your Hard drive. I would go get a SSD, stick it in my computer as a secondary drive, use me 2tb HDD as the main OS and main system and run my games off my SSD. I'll tell you what. I have a 3.8 quadcore sandy bridge intel, ge-force gtx-660tiOC, 32GB of RAM, and a 2TB 7200rpm HDD. I was getting 30-40 fps in towns and even lower in cities, i would get 50 fps in the wilderness looking into the sky with a sniper scope. I went to staples, bought a 120gb SSD for 89$, install my steam and arma game onto it. i get 120fps in the wilderness and 80-90 in cities with over 40-50 players on origins. dont ask me how or why but it fucking rocks and its absolutly beautiful. settings are all on Highest. Keep inmind in the video settings In-Game; Video Memory:default (always default, let your gpu make up it's mind) Post processing effect: disabled"unless u have a huge system, then either Low or Normal" Vsync:0 HDR quailty: If im not mistaken HDR means High Definition Rendering * if im wrong Please for the love of god someone correct me) should be at either normal or very high. *in my experience*

Low FPS with low GPU & CPU usage
=DiG= Zgraphz replied to forest's topic in DayZ Mod Troubleshooting
they are, but i dont think they are allowed to do that. incase somone follows their example and if something got screwed up im sure they would not want to deal with it. Mods jobs is to moderate the forums, not help/address every issues, plus something like this with system configs and files changing puts responsibility in their hands, hence they are Moderators not Technical Support.
