Serova (DayZ) 174 Posted March 23, 2013 (edited) Have you got the latest beta patch?See if installing this one fixes the problem: http://www.armaholic...ge.php?id=10988Don't use Steam to launch it use DayzCommander and DayzCommander only also check if your paths are correctly setup in the settings menu under "GAME DIRECTORIES".

Mos1ey 6301 Posted March 23, 2013 I'm not 100% sure if you can launch with DayZ Commander using ARMA 2: Free. Have you tried using DZC to install DayZ mod and then launching Operation Arrowhead through Steam using the launch option -mod=@DayZ ? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Ewad3 0 Posted March 23, 2013 what? can you re-explain? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Mos1ey 6301 Posted March 23, 2013 -mod=@DayZ is telling OA to launch with DayZ mod enabled. :) Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Ewad3 0 Posted March 23, 2013 (edited) oh ok :) well dayz commander doesnt work Edited March 23, 2013 by Ewad3 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Serova (DayZ) 174 Posted March 23, 2013 Have you applied the beta patch I posted earlier?Also when launching it through DayzCommander at the main menu of the game does it has the DayZ logo on the top right?mZLY may be right DayZcommander doesn't work with the free version I wouldn't know.

PaxC4T 159 Posted March 23, 2013 you have to launch Arma 2 and Op Arrowhead atleast once before launching DayZ, Then it will work just fine. 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Mos1ey 6301 Posted March 23, 2013 Serova is right, you have to run ARMA 2 and OA right up to the main menu once each before you can install DayZ mod.If you've already done that and what I suggested didn't work then follow this guide and see if it helps...http://kodabar.blogspot.dk/2012/05/how-to-install-dayz-with-arma-2-free.html Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Serova (DayZ) 174 Posted March 24, 2013 So yeah i launch it but it kicks me of evry serverWhat does the error say?Do these steps:- Start ArmA 2 Free and close it.- Start ArmA OA and close it.- Download this patch and install it -> http://www.armaholic.com/page.php?id=10988- Go into Dayz Commander and install DayZ -> https://dl.dropbox.com/u/73376673/DayzInstallInstruc.png- Find a server and join it. MAKE SURE YOU DON'T JOIN A WHITELISTED ONE AS THAT WILL KICK YOU Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Serova (DayZ) 174 Posted March 24, 2013 Just to add, this error -> http://i.imgur.com/ZRvvcOw.png means you put the wrong paths in the directory boxes or you haven't installed DayZ just follow the steps in my previous posts and be sure your paths are right. Good luck let us know if it's fixed or not! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
