Hi there. So basically, I've had DayZ for aaaaaages. But sadly, I played it once and then never came back. I've decided to play it again, and to my sadness I am having loads of trouble. Firstly, my Operation Arrowhead refused to launch because of an "Invalid CD Key" (I have it installed through steam, lol!?) Secondly, my game refused to launch giving me some bug with graphics. I've now overcome these two errors, and I'm having trouble actually getting into a game now. I have purchased the steam version of the game. From what I know, I am not running any 'beta' patch. I am launching the mod through sixLauncher. The error I'm having is, when I connect to a server, I say join, go through the player list and stuff as usual. Then, I'm given the notification "Waiting for a character to create". After that is done, my game freezes with this: http://1.bp.blogspot.com/-qh7Aqjz3umU/T7l54x2s97I/AAAAAAAAB80/Wc467cbf7Kk/s1600/DayZ+loading.jpg No matter how long I leave it for, what server I join, or how every many times I uninstall it it still does this. My PC Specs (NOTE! I have played DayZ before. So It's obviously not something to do with graphical errors, plus my PC is a beast.) - Intel Core i7-2600k CPU @ 3.4GHz (8 gb RAM) - AMD Radeon HD 6900 series x2 - That's all you need I'm sure I'm running this on windows. I have seen similar threads to this (from like, MAY...) and a simple reinstall worked for all of them. Any help would be great, as I'm really bored and want to play... (PS: I'm not sure if it's related, but every server I join it always says (this is sixlauncher) "This server is running an older version. Join anyway?") Thanks.
