Cannot Join DayZ Server with BAF Full Version

Recommended Posts

So I have been playing DayZ on a friends server for about a week now. I got sick of low textures on camo type clothing and bought and installed British Armed Forces. Now I cannot join his server because it says I have an unsupported server key.

He runs the server from a personal box and that box has only the Lite versions of PMC and BAF installed. I have the full versions of both. PMC did not give me this problem but BAF is.

Anyway I can give him my key file or is there any way to get around this?

Thanks.

I have no clue what I'm talking about, but there must be something in the server file he has to enable - which should be enabled by default to allow the DLCs to be used. I have PMC and BAF and I've never had this happen to me.

Are you using ArmAII Operation Arrowhead to play? If you use BAF, that might be the problem. Use the OA launcher and see what happens

I did do that. Im not sure why it says the server key is not accepted. I use the OA launcher since our server got messed up after we did a full re-install of it and now it wont show on PlayWithSix or DayZ Commander as the correct version.

Ill try again I guess. Maybe you should try joining it. Go into the DayZ main menu via the OA launcher and go to filter and search "colony". Its the only server that will show. You try to join it.

I figured it out. Turned out to be a PEBKAC problem. After installing any Arma 2 DLC you MUST install the beta patches again so that the DLC server keys are added to your keys folders.

Thanks for the suggestions though mullraugh
