unfortunatly, i can't help with those programs... i installed all the stuff manually, but this is a bit more complicated (but im also more flexible, since i can launch different versions of dayz, just by using an other shortcut) nevertheless... i was wondering, if you had already checked your dayz folder if the flies, the game was missing are actually missing... just find your game folder and go to /@DayZ/addons there should be (at least in my case) 15 files in there: dayz.pbo, dayz.pbo.dayz.bisign, dayzanim.pbo, dayzanim.pbp.dayz.bisign, dayz_code.pbo, dayz_code...., dayz_equip.pbo, dayz_equip..., dayz_sfx.pbo, dayz_sfx..., dayz_vehicles.pbo, dayz_vehicles..., dayz_weapons.pbo, dayz_weapons..., and md5checksums.txt if any of those files is missing you should download the mod files again: http://uk1.dayz.nu/l...ayZ-1.7.2.5.rar just put all of them in youd /@DayZ/addons folder, and it should work.... that "Bad Version" error, you get is because, you don't only need the right version of DayZ to play, but also the right version of Arma:OA since there are often coming new beta patches that can manually downloaded here: http://www.arma2.com/beta-patch.php ... when you read a server name, you should be able the information you need from it easily. for example: "DayZ - DE 1663 (v1.7.2.5/Beta 96061) [EXPERT][GMT+1] dayzmod.com" means that the server runs DayZ 1.7.2.5, and beta patch 1.62: 96061 when you use the latest beta patch, you should be able to join server using older versions, but not vice versa

how did you install dayz, and how do you launch it? and telling us what is missing will help us helping you... so more info pls

how about testing your setting offline, without dayz? i have noticed, that sometimes servers are bad to play on for some players... eg. a friend and me got like 10fps on one server, while an other friend had no problems there. usually i have always more than 40 fps, but someties servers just seem to be screwed up... therefore i would reccomend testing it offline, to get the server out of the equasian... just run the arma2oa.exe in ...\Bohemia Interactive\ArmA 2 Operation Arrowhead\Expansion\beta and test a bit

if you have your coordinates, maybe ask a friendly chopper pilot, if he could pick you up... or try to get a spawn reset

how about connecting to some servers in a short time in hope of a spawn reset? you propably wont get it since you need it, but its worth a try...

i like bikes, but they need to get panniers... otherwise i prefer our ural truck, due to the storage... but bikes are easy to hide, the truck... is not^^

you can find ghillies on crash sites(i did), but i wouldnt search for them there... they are more likely to be found in residential areas (low spawn chance, but more places to spawn) when searching for crash sites you should keep in mind, that freshly restarted servers got a higher chance to have unlooted crash sites... also rare items are spawned rarely, most peeople out there who are fully equiped got their stuff from duping tents...(maybe you have more luck searching for tents, then searching for crash sites^^)

I'm a bored survivior/hero, that seeks for some andventures. So i offer medic services, and cover for medics. So just write me a pm with what you need and i might be able to help.

i have had some problems with my g35 for a long time... often when i muted the microphone, it swiched from surround to stereo, and sometimes it wouldnt swich back but a few days ago, i had a look if there were any new drivers... i found some, and now its working fine... you can download the drivers here: http://www.logitech.com/en-us/support/game-gear/g35-surround-sound-headset?section=downloads&bit=&osid=-1&selectedFile=0

just fly high, enable auto hoovering, go afk, and see when its getting to boring for them^^

doing math to be a good sniper? sounds like a good way to get kids to do their homework... beans for you, although i wouldnt agree that some equip should be more often, i have never seen a real rangefinder in a private household (or anywhere else)...

I only can tell you what i have experienced so far with 1.7.2.5. Graphical problems are very rare now for me, and can still be fixed with restarting the Game. I can play 5 hours without experiencing any problems, but then i get it twice in an hour, so its hard to tell whats wrong. I think, that those loading screen issues mostly are caused, by getting kicked from the server, when loading, because often when i had this issue, my friends told me i got kicked for some reason, but i didn't get notifyed about that. Loading times are (now) realy good for me, since i use a SSD. One thing i have heard, but can't realy confirm that it is true, that there are no more vehicles respawning. Updating is easy: 1. Download the DayZ-1.7.2.5.rar file 2. extract it 3. go into you DayZ folder 4. put all files into your addons folder (either keep the old files renamed or replace them, you choise) 5. play

im no expert but i had to explain the installing procces to some of my friends, so i might be a little of help did you try to run arma for the first time with already installed dayz mod? because you need to run arma II(free) and OA at least once before beginning the installation procces and what guide do/did you use, maybe someone might be able to find out what went wrong in it

shouldn't usually the corpse remain even if he logged out? i mean the whole, "i get owned, so i log out" behaiviour only makes sense to me if you are still alive... are you sure you killed him, because you might only have incapacitated him, which looks quite similar, but you dont get a kill... so always if you are not sure, shoot him again, so hes realy dead

never been lucky enough to find my nv, ghillie(got camo though), gps, and range finder... but im quite confident with my weapons

do you have a joystick or something like that? if yes check if its in a neutral position or simply check the key bindings

yon dont nessecarily need arma 2, since you also could use arma 2 free, to get dayz running, but that might get you some minor disadvantages but you defenetly need a original key for each of you

as chipdemon said, you need to run both versions(arma2+ OA) of arma once (main menu is enough), before you "install" dayz you should try that before buying a new copy of the game
