kichilron 8550 Posted April 9, 2014 In your Steamlibrary, rightlick DayZ and go to properties. Under the Tab "Local Game Files" click "Verify Integrity" or something alongs those lines. Might not be 100% correct, but you get the deal. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

applejaxc 2500 Posted April 9, 2014 Sorry kind of a noob, what do you mean by unplug and plug it back in exactly"Verify your Steam cache" is the Steam equivalent to malfunctioning electronics. The first thing a help line asks you to do is make sure it's plugged in, the second is to unplug, wait, and plug it back in. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

By the way, you probably won't see this exactly when you open DayZ's properties, just something similar. It's just that Starbound is the only game I have installed on my computer.
