Six Launcher - Easy Install/Update, Find/Join DayZ servers, worldwide network
banshee replied to sickboy's topic in DayZ Mod Troubleshooting
The Commander is not much better. Also please refrain from spamming this thread with your suggestions. We don't do that in the Commander thread and you shouldn't here. Easy? Easy! :) -
You should not click on any commercials to download SIX Launcher. :) But actually go ahead and download the new version right away: http://play.withsix.com Thanks for the cool videos. :) You should defnetly do one using Play with SIX!
-
You can use Play with SIX to install either 1.7.2.4 or 1.7.2.5 :) http://play.withsix.com

SIX is not terrible. :) Check out the new version: http://play.withsix.com

There is a reason why 1.7.2.5 is not on SIX Launcher. It wasn't meant to be distributed to a broad audience. Rocket explicitly asked to not distribute it. In Play with SIX wich is the new tool from SIX, you can also use experimental builds such as 1.7.2.5. Basicly SIX Launcher was put together in one weekend to provide DayZ Players with an easy interface to install and update DayZ. It had a very short dev time. Since then we've been working on Play with SIX wich currently is in a community preview. We've ironed out a lot of issues and bugs as well improved interface dramaticly. In addition to that we improved the serverbrowser, added support for all Arma mods, added a real buddy system, private and group chats and much more. If you want to have a look, go to http://play.withsix.com :) Also talking about coding skills without any knowledge is plain silly. SIX Launcher was put together in a few days while DayZ Commander was put together in several weeks. In addition to that SIX has much more features in the background like differential file transfer. So you actually only download the bits that changed and not the whole files. Sickboy, the guy behind SIX, has done the CBA mod (wich is integral part of DayZ), has been the major force behind ACE wich DayZ uses partially as well, and much other stuff. And don't forget the mirrors SIX is providing for the community for mods etc. Comparing SIX and DayZ Commander on that level is simply impossible. They're not in the same league.

The questionmark means that your IP isn't recognized in our database with a geolocation. Also try Play with SIX. The serverbrowser is much more advanced.

No Six Updater Love - The end?
banshee replied to godonholiday's topic in DayZ Mod General Discussion
1.7.2.5 is not pushed trough SIX Launcher due to request of Rocket. However Play with SIX has the ability to use experimental builds such as 1.7.2.5 and is much more advanced than SIX Launcher. :) Go and check it out now! -
Dayz commander worth downloading?
banshee replied to quartershare's topic in DayZ Mod Troubleshooting
Just go and try "Play with SIX" wich combines the best stuff from Commander and Launcher. :) -
SIX LAUNCHER UPDATE, AM I DOING SOMETHING WRONG?
banshee replied to Nickds54's topic in New Player Discussion
Use Play with SIX. It's much better and supports several versions together with differential file transfers. This means it'll only downloads the changed bits and not entire files. Also it has a reliable buddy system as well as private and groupchats. :) http://play.withsix.com -
You can also use your STEAM overlay with SIX Launcher or "Play with SIX". No problem. Just launching Arma2 won't help you with DayZ. :)

Six Launcher - Easy Install/Update, Find/Join DayZ servers, worldwide network
banshee replied to sickboy's topic in DayZ Mod Troubleshooting
"Because this detection is based on a reputation score, it does not represent a specific class of threat like adware or spyware, but instead applies to all threat categories." This means the tool doesn't have any bad stuff in it. It only says it is not installed widley on Symmatec customers PC's. That's all. There is no virus in there. However there are things in there that might trigger AV products. Such as the options to launch trough steam and other stuff. However there is NOTHING dangerous in there. -
The best help you'll get at http://getsatisfaction.withsix.com There might actually be an answer to your question allready. If not our support staff is monitoring that closley. :) So please go there and fill in your error report.

What is play withsix? And how do I get my account to work?>
banshee replied to Shard (DayZ)'s topic in DayZ Mod General Discussion
To answer the question: You'd need to create a new account (only if you want to use the social features that is). It'll then give you a buddy list, private chats, group chats and much more. :) -
My DayZ isn't updating correctly
banshee replied to asdfghjkl (DayZ)'s topic in DayZ Mod Troubleshooting
What exactly doesn't work? SIX Launcher only serves 1.7.2.4 because 2.5 is NOT meant to be stable and Rocket asked us to not serve it. However "Play with SIX" enables you to use experimental releases e.g. 1.7.2.5 -
1.7.2.5 is not supposed to be the latest stable release of DayZ. Using this patch is not recommended at all. Rocket asked us to not server 1.7.2.5 on SIX Launcher because he is working on a more stable release. However Rocket allowed us to serve 1.7.2.5 e.g. as an experimental build trough "Play with SIX" the next version of SIX Launcher wich itself is still in community preview. Check it out: http://play.withsix.com :)

[HOW-TO]Fix the Stucked loading screen! (Steam Version)
banshee replied to FailbatZ's topic in DayZ Mod Troubleshooting
Try "Play with SIX" wich basicly is the next version of SIX Launcher. :) -
DayZ was working fine, now it's stuck on Loading?
banshee replied to DjZZeRo's topic in DayZ Mod Troubleshooting
1.7.2.5 is not supposed to be released to the public anyways. And it's by no means the official latest version. 1.7.2.4 is. Also Rocket is currently in germany and very busy with the GamesCom (large gaming fair in cologne). -
Rocket explicitly asked to NOT serve 1.7.2.5. That's why we don't serve it trough SIX Launcher. However within Play with SIX, our new tool, you can choose to update to experimental patches like 1.7.2.5 http://play.withsix.com go and check it out. :)
-
SIX Updater is our old really bloated tool with a lot of features most of the people don't need at all. Unless you're a serveradmin, you'll be better off with using the new "Play with SIX". Check out http://play.withsix.com even if you only play DayZ. We have a lot of great new features. :)
-
That's not true. 1.7.2.5 is NOT the current version. It is a small group testing release wich still is very buggy. Rocket explicitly asked us to NOT serve 1.7.2.5 with SIX Launcher. However SIX Launcher also is outdated. We have pushed "Play with SIX" wich is more advanced, has a real buddylist, chat and much more. Also we have a much advanced serverbrowser. Due to many requests we also implemented the option to use experimental patches such as 1.7.2.5 within "Play with SIX".
-
SIX is not on hollidays. We're working furiously and we are also aware of 1.7.2.5. But we've asked explicitly by Rocket to NOT serve 1.7.2.5 because it's concidered to be a small group testing release. Also it's very buggy. However due to multiple demands, we have the option to use 1.7.2.5 within "Play with SIX" our new release wich is also much more advanced as allready stated above.
-
You don't update to 1.7.2.5 because it's not supposed to be played. Server admins just updated their servers. Initially 1.7.2.5 was only meant for small group testing whereas 1.7.2.4 is still the official patch to go. That's why SIX doesn't provide you with 1.7.2.5. We've been asked by Rocket to not do it because it's still too buggy.
-
1.7.2.5 is not supposed to be widley spread. That's why SIX only provides 1.7.2.4. We've been asked by Rocket to NOT offer 1.7.2.5 at all. I guess there is reasons for that. :)

Dayz downgrading after patch (any help would be appreciated)
banshee replied to Food for thought's topic in DayZ Mod Troubleshooting
As said on other threads: 1.7.2.5 is NOT supposed to be publicly released. Not trough DayZ Commander nor trough SIX Launcher. That's why we don't have it. -
Using Six Launcher - Question/Problem
banshee replied to sGMarvin's topic in DayZ Mod Troubleshooting
SIX Launcher is not serving 1.7.2.5 because it's not a stable patch and Rocket asked us to NOT serve it to the people. It's on purpose like this.
