Hi need help with dayz

[Fabian94 0]

okay i have been thinking of buy this game and so i got the arma 2 free version and well i liked it, so then i bought the complete set and i downloaded dayzmod and it won't work properly and this sucks because i bought this game mainly for that reason. Sorry if i am missing out on some downloads or patches, but i don't know where to get them. i am starting to regret this purchase. any help?

I personally don't like DayZ Commander, even though everyone else here is absolutely in love with it.

The (original and my) method is to install ArmA 2 and ArmA 2 Operation Arrowhead. make sure you play both games (A2/OA) offline for a few minutes, then online so BattlEYE (the anti cheat client) installs to Arma 2 and Operation Arrowhead. Steam (if that's where you got the game from) should give you the option to launch "ArmA 2: CO" whenever you open ArmA 2 Operation Arrowhead, which will launch ArmA2 and OA together as one game. If so, fantastic.

Then you put @DayZ (the download you get from dayzmod.com) in your ArmA 2 Operation Arrowhead folder, right click OA in Steam, choose "Properties," then "Launch options" and put in -mod=@DayZ (or whatever you named the folder) and launch the game.

Ya just download it then under Install tap at the top select the mod you want to install and play, then when its done search for a server to play on :)

All you need to do with DayZ Commander is click the "Install/update" button up on the top and tell it to download the latest version of ARMA 2 OA Beta and the standard DayZ mod, which should be up at the top of the list - no need to worry about all the other mod variants just now
