    Well here is the thing: 1. Servers should not have updated to 1.7.2.5 anyways because Rocket asked to not do it. 2. SIX Launcher doesn't serve 1.7.2.5 because we've explicitly asked to not do so. 3. The 1.7.2.5 is so buggy that they're working on the next patch and will roll that out to the broad public

    banshee replied to mattlightfoot's topic in Mod Announcements & Info

    http://forums.bistudio.com/showthread.php?138687-GamesCom-meet-amp-greet&p=2206410#post2206410 Tier1 will visit the Gamescom with around 20 people from all over europe, joining forces with the SIX staff (SIX Updater, SIX Launcher, Play with SIX). Because we're all together there, we are going to have a nice beer in cologne on friday evening. If you are intrested in joining up, please send me a PM or sign up in the linked thread. We'll then organize a location big enough to accomodate everyone. Further information will be passed on thursday, including a cellphone number to contact us.

    I'm not going to give a recommondation here. For me personally I don't use steam and bought my Arma over http://store.bistudio.com directly from the developer. This way all the money gets there. :) As well I don't have to bother with Steam as well as with patches and updates for Arma2 beeing relased late on Steam wich happend in the past. For 1.59 the steam users had to wait more than two weeks until it was avaible on steam. Also check out our new application wich replaces SIX Launcher: http://Play.withSIX.com

    Killerboxhead: Yes, you need to buy Arma2 Combined Operations. DayZ is (at the moment) just a modification for Arma2:CO. Btw. we just released the community preview of our next generation application. Check it out on http://Play.withSIX.com!

    This is related to the way SIX Launcher gets information from gamespy. (And for all the DayZCommander lovers: It does exactly the same. :) ) Both tools use gslist.exe to get information from gamespy. All those UDP connections may either crash your router, or trigger some weired spam protection and therefore terminate your internet connection completly. Now there are some possibilities for you. 1. Use the "Only rely on serverlist provided by the SU Portal". 2. Use the new SIX from http://Play.withSIX.com With that new tool the retreival of servers has been improved drastically and also you have the option to limit the amount of parallel queries to gamespy.

    SIX actually does update Battleeye. :)

    Find out if its day or night

    banshee replied to user555's topic in New Player Discussion

    Well there is indeed no proper way to determine if it's day or night. Yes, the servers have sometimes their timezone in the description. But this won't work as well if the servers are not getting restarted frequently because the ingame clock doesn't really work in realtime. That's why SIX doesn't have such a filter.

    Six Launcher needs a Day/Night Filter

    banshee replied to marklo4's topic in New Player Discussion

    Well Frostback, that's actually not true. He reads here, and his team reads here as well. :) The reason why there is no Day/Night filter in the SIX Launcher is, that that information is just not reliable enough. I tried that feature in DayZ Commander, and it doesn't work 90% of the time anyways. So I just stick to SIX. Also, there is a brand new version of SIX beeing released rigth now: http://Play.withSIX.com Go and check it out. :)

    Six Launcher/ Commander

    banshee replied to Nergalwaja's topic in DayZ Mod General Discussion

    Well you are invited to check out our new community preview. It's much improved in all aspects of the application. The serverbrowser is much more responsive and has all filters (exept for stuff like day/night wich doesn't work anyway). We have a buddy system, chats and much more. You actually can see now on what server your buddies are playing on right in the server browser and so on. :) http://Play.withSIX.com

    Six Launcher/ Commander

    banshee replied to Nergalwaja's topic in DayZ Mod General Discussion

    We are so excited! http://Play.withSIX.com Go and check it out now! :)
  12. banshee
    Can you somehow be more precise please? :)
  13. banshee
    I don't think so. For me it's showing more like 8% 1.7.2.3 servers instead of the 70%. Also check out the brand new community preview of our new application at http://Play.withSIX.com It's completley revamped with a new more intuitve interface, a better serverbrowser with more filter options, a buddy system wich allows you to see where your buddies are playing at, chatting with them and much more to come. :)

    Six launcher

    banshee replied to 223gixer023's topic in DayZ Mod Troubleshooting

    DayZ Commander also gets it's information from Gamespy. :) In SIX Launcher you can choose to query the gamespy servers trough gslist.exe (like DayZ Commander) or retrieve a precompiled serverlist from the SIX Servers to prevent issues with your modem/firewall/router that has problems with gslist.exe and the vast amount of UDP traffic. Also SIX Launcher will have a real buddy-list and other options in the very near future.

    Six launcher

    banshee replied to 223gixer023's topic in DayZ Mod Troubleshooting

    This is a problem with how Gamespy handles the requests and has nothing to do with the Launcher itself. However we are currently working on great improvements on that including a buddy-feature that allows you to see where your friends are playing and much more.

    Is this topic still valid? Do you still have this issue?

    Six Launcher/ Commander

    banshee replied to Nergalwaja's topic in DayZ Mod General Discussion

    SIX Launcher will release a new, much enhanced version in the next few days. Check http://play.withSIX.com during the next days. :) It's worth it.

    Stuck, Please help.

    banshee replied to TheDannyB's topic in DayZ Mod Troubleshooting

    First of all make sure you launch both Arma2 and Arma2:OA. That's important. Then obviously make sure to launch DayZ as well as the latest Beta that's avaible on the SU network. Best to do this trough SIX Launcher for now. To be very sure just delete your DayZ folder and reinstall it trough SIX.
  19. banshee
    Well can you give us any additional error messages or your RPT file? That would help troubleshooting a bit. :)
  20. banshee
    How exactly are you launching your game? If you bought the game trough Steam, please launch it without any mods trough Steam for the first time. That should do the trick. Please report back here.
  21. banshee
    Yeah, please try another server. Maybe one that is actually up to date. Try UK 7. That one works for me all the time. That's intresting because for me the update takes around 1 minute. Do you have any logs for us? Anything we can use to possibly trace it back?

    We disabled that possibility to not allow stalking other players that don't want to be stalked. With version 2 of the launcher there will be a buddy system, so stay tuned. More info + screenshots pretty soon. :)

    Please see here: http://dayzmod.com/forum/index.php?/topic/4941-six-launcher-easy-installupdate-findjoin-dayz-servers-worldwide-network/page__st__300#entry338159 That has nothing to do with SIX Launcher nor the DayZ installation. It's most likley the server. Please try some other ones. That's related to battleeye. Check if you have an arma.cfg in the profiles\users\YourAdminAcc. Please see: http://www.six-updater.net/2012/07/important-note-re-161-beta-patch-fix.html We allready fixed the launcher to install the BE update upon beta update. But you may need to do it manually.
  25. banshee
    Ah you don't mean the Launcher but the Beta version?
