    Hello Malhiem, Are you using Six Launcher to launch/update the game? If you are and this isn't helping, then please try updating to the latest official Arma 2 Beta build. ( http://www.arma2.com/beta-patch.php/ ) 95208 in the green box at the top. Has anything changed since you were last able to connect?

    Fair enough, hopefully a fresh install with sort it. I know Arma X users seem to get errors like this a lot. It's just verification for me that Arma is using the DayZ folder, nothing more.
  3. nathan_quayle@hotmail.com
    The very first screen that loads, with Single Player, Multi Player, etc. :)
  4. nathan_quayle@hotmail.com
    How crazy. This is a bit of a silly question, but when you load the game, do you see @Dayz under the Arma 2 icon located at the top right of the main screen.

    Hello Jf1ve, You mentioned that steams says the game is unavailable. Can you please go to Steam, right click Arma 2, go to properties, then to Local Files, and finally select "Verify integrity of game cache". Then repeat this process for Arma 2: OA. EDIT: Also make sure you're running Steam as Administrator.

    Okay, so I've logged onto 3 servers now, looted 3 guns, and each log has lost me that gun. At first I assumed it'd be to harsh rubber banding, but then I realised my position and inventory stayed exactly the same. Is anyone else having this issue?
  7. nathan_quayle@hotmail.com
    Okay, that's a bit odd. Navigate to your Operation Arrowhead folder. ( C:\Program Files (x86)\Steam\steamapps\common\arma 2 operation arrowhead ) for most people. Rename "ArmA2OA" to something like "ArmA2OA_Backup", Then go to Expansions -> Beta and move that ArmA2OA back to the OA root folder. Give it a whirl. Sorry, normally most people get fixed after the beta patch! :P

    Okay, I suppose the first step is to make sure your Arma 2 beta is up to date. ( http://www.arma2.com/beta-patch.php/ ) The link in the green box at the top on the left, for patch 94700, download that and then install it, if you're prompted by a CD Key error don't worry too much. Once that's installed run DayZ as you normally would and then on the first screen with Single player, multi player, etc confirm that it says @Dayz under the Arma 2 logo at the top right. If it does, try connecting to a server. Post results. :)

    Hello, We'll start with the basics, What version of the Arma 2 Beta are you running? Is it a retail copy or steam copy? Have you connected to any games?
  10. nathan_quayle@hotmail.com
    Then explain it to them. :P If they're at Cherno & you're at Elektro, simply tell them to run with the coast on their right shoulder. :P
  11. nathan_quayle@hotmail.com
    You can reinstall BattleEye. Some people reckon it can cause loading issues. :P
  12. nathan_quayle@hotmail.com
    I essentially have two different loads, no idea how or why. Some servers will load with my guy in Elektro whos using a AKM, others will load a character in Elektro using a hatchet. I'm confused. I don't want to gear up, and find out that character isn't 'real'.
  13. nathan_quayle@hotmail.com
    This applies to both of you; Are you connecting to 1.7.2 servers?
  14. nathan_quayle@hotmail.com
    Do you get any errors? Does it hang at certain points?
  15. nathan_quayle@hotmail.com
    Ahh, that's great news! :) Enjoy your surviving! :)
  16. nathan_quayle@hotmail.com
    When you load up DayZ via Six Launcher on the first screen, with Single Player, Multiplayer etc, at the top right under the Arma 2 logo does it say "@dayz" as one of the lines of text? Sorry if this confuses you, I'll upload a picture. :)
  17. nathan_quayle@hotmail.com
    Did you make sure you followed the installation guides fully? Grab Six Launcher, it might help you solve issues.
  18. nathan_quayle@hotmail.com
    Again, I would recommend downloading the newest Arma 2 Beta ( http://www.arma2.com/beta-patch.php/ ) and then using Six Launcher to start the game up. The combination of these two *should* clear up any issues you're having. Were you able to play before 1.7.2? EDIT: Might be worth mentioning you should be making sure you're connecting to servers running 1.7.2 or you'll be met by weird connections/no connection.
  19. nathan_quayle@hotmail.com
    What version of DayZ are you using?
  20. nathan_quayle@hotmail.com
    Glad to hear it. :)
  21. nathan_quayle@hotmail.com
    The less errors the better. :P Let us know if DayZ still plays up. :)
  22. nathan_quayle@hotmail.com
    This is a server side issue, waiting can take up to 10 minutes on a working server to connect, depending on the current traffic at the Hive. if you can't connect to any server after a prolonged period and you're simply stuck at "waiting for character to create.." then it might be worth a try reinstalling BattleEye as listed here ( http://dayzwiki.com/wiki/index.php?title=How_to_install_DayZ ) it also lists several other reasons for this error near the bottom of the page. :)
  23. nathan_quayle@hotmail.com
    Oh wow, I should really stop helping! Haha Are you receiving any errors? Any pop-ups? Is it still running in process manager if you just can't get it to open.
  24. nathan_quayle@hotmail.com
    I've never even heard of that error. Just read Steam's official post on it ( https://support.steampowered.com/kb_article.php?ref=4595-WEXN-6831 ) seems like a long winded solution. Have you tried exiting and reopening steam, maybe as Administrator?
  25. nathan_quayle@hotmail.com
    It'll take no longer than 2 minutes. :)
