I am sorry, didn't notice you had posted. A lot of people seem to be unable to figure out Sixupdater, so I will try to break it down in bullet point steps.

1: Go into the settings menu (blue button in the top left)

2: Under path, set your game and mod paths to your Operation arrowhead folder.

Default Retail path: C:\Program Files\Bohemia Interactive\ARMA 2 Operation Arrowhead *

Default Steam path: "C:\Program Files\Steam\steamapps\common\ARMA 2 Operation Arrowhead *

* "Program Files (x86)" in 64bit systems (most people will run 64bit system theses days)

3: Either Create a new preset or use the dynamic preset (I suggest just using the dynamic preset, you don't have to select anything..as Default it will use the dynamic preset)

4: Open the dropdown menu "Profile" in the top ribbon and select "A2 OA Combined Ops (forced)

5: Go to the "Mods" tab and find @DayZ, rightclick and select "add to preset" or "Use Mod in Dynamic preset"

6: Underneath the "blue button", there is a Big green button. If you click the lower ½ of it, you will get a drop down menu where you select "Install and update Mods"

7: Wait for it to be done and enjoy.

Hope this will help somebody.
