DayZCommander - Why aren't there servers?

[Zombiech 2]

So I just downloaded DayZ Commander and there are no servers... I don't know why. When I try to install DayZ manually, it gives my the option to download it on Bit Torrent, and I don't know how to use torrents :(

So I cant play DayZ :(

If you can help me thank you

Have you installed DayZ yet or not? There is an install button in the top right of DayZCommander.

Lol, I told you probs come in threes!

Run Commander and then check your settings. if you're new you probably need to let Commander update you files (yes, more downloading :) ) Click on update and then update the beta patch and DayZ to the most recent versions.

Let me know what happens.

[Zombiech 2]

Mk. I will once I do that :)

[Zombiech 2]

Idk where to update it :\, it just says stuff about launching it in the settings area

[Fraggle (DayZ) 15720]

Hang on, I haven't used Commander for months, I'll have a look.

[Fraggle (DayZ) 15720]

Ok, top right of the DayZCom screen there a yellow update button, click that and it gives you all of the update options.

[Zombiech 2]

I clicked that, it only says lets me know if the servers are up, it also lets me know what DayZ isn't found, Arma 2 isn't found, there isn't an update button, there is a change log, which does nothing :\

what versions are you using for arma2 steam or retail and arma2 oa steam or retail dayz commander cant find the games you might have to set the paths yourself

[SmashT 10907]

There should be install buttons to the right of each of those :/

[Zombiech 2]

I bought Arma 2: Combined Operations, already ran them both

I bought it off Steam

[Zombiech 2]

Should I send you a screen shot?

EDIT: It doesn't say update

Yes, please take a screenshot of both the install/update and settings pages.

have you allowed it through the firewall

[Zombiech 2]

:?

I didn't dis-allow it through

[AmberHelios 2071]

did it ask you check the firewall to see if its blocked

I though there were some files i had to download, I only downloaded A 2:OA and A2, then DayZ commander, I didn't download anything other than that

EDIT: No it didn't, well it did ask my if I wanted to run it, and I said yes, it said it could be a risk, but I knew that it wasn't :)

have you enabled the .net framework 3.5 i think its disabled by default in windows 8

[Fraggle (DayZ) 15720]

Click (in DayZ commander) settings. Is there anything in the "game directories" boxes?

[Zombiech 2]

.net framework 3.5 isn't on the Firewall list of applications

[AmberHelios 2071]

yeah the correct paths for steam are in looking at the picture but it cant connect to the servers
