Download Invalid

[davemmandingo 1]

I am running the Steam version of the game

Arma 2 version 98866

DayZ version 1.7.3

System: intel i5 with 16 GB ram & 64 bit Win 7

When trying to use DayZ Commander to update the maps, it crashed. No biggie, it has done that before.

But when I restarted, all of my saved info: recent, download, & friends info was all wiped.

And now when I try to update the maps they all have a red triangle with the caption "invalid download".

Yes, I realize this is a DayZ Commander issue, and I have tried posting on their forums, but to no avail.

Anyone else run into something like this?

Uninstall Dayz commander - do a cold restart (shut down - start up) of your computer - reinstall Dayz commander

Hope that works for you.

Nope, sorry, still have same problem.

Had same error. What you do go to C:\Program Files (x86)\Steam\steamapps\common\arma 2 operation arrowhead Go into the map files and delete the WinRAR files in the folders, reset your Dayz Commander. The maps should install now, if not. well then i dunno.

I have a similar issue where when I try to update DayZ it says Download invalid. Any ideas how to fix it?

Bumping this because of same issue.

[TheSilentWarrior 43]

Same here, for a long time now.

Wierd thing is some are working for me and some just won't.

For example zargabad installs just fine but namalsk just doesn't work with dayZ commander.

Still too lazy to do a manual installation.

Found a fix (for me anyway)

My firewall (Bitdefender) blocked DayZcommander. I Hadn't noticed it since it worked apart from some spesific map downloads.

Hello Homies , if you are still have problems with the installing of the add ons , it might be your firewalls. Make use that all of your firewalls are turn off (ALL OF THEM) an reopen DayZ Commander as administrator an let it run if the download stops compeletly cancel it an let it install again it should start off where it let off. Also make sure you do get it installed that you put all your firewalls back on.

I hope this helps you guys.

This worked for me: Delete @DayZ file. Go to steam and verify ArmA 2 and ArmA 2 OA in properties and then when its done. go to dayz commander and start the download again. It should work now :)
