You need to update your PMC to 1.02

http://community.bistudio.com/wiki/Arma_2:PMC_Patch_v1.02

downloadlink to A2OA 1.60 PATCH (it includes both BAF and PMC patch)

http://community.bistudio.com/wiki/A2OA:_Patch_v1.60

Just make sure after running the patch you reinstall the latest ARMA BETA patch again. The reinforcements patch 1.60 will reverse also your ARMA2 BETA patch to some ancient version.

I'm sorry I have no clue about Dayzcommander. I still do it the old fashioned manual way and use Arma 2 launcher to launch dayz and the mods. Can't help you on the datzcommander bit (haven't really ever understood why people use DZC or Sixlauncher)

But yes, the update package I linked has the latest PMC but it also contains a very old Arma 2 BETA patch. So you basically use it to update your PMC DLC making it give you no errors when entering servers. However, it will revert your ARMA 2 BETA also.

So afterwards you will need to update your ARMA 2 BETA. I always download it from here http://www.arma2.com/beta-patch.php > extract it > run exe > go to your arma 2 operation arrowhead folder > Expansion > beta > Copy arma2oa.exe > go back to main arma 2 operation arrowhead folder and paste (it will ask you if you want to replace the file > YES

Done

I have this same problem - could I just remove PMC or is it required by DayZ?
