DayZ stucked on loading screen/lobby

[balix 0]

Greetings from Czech Republic!

 

So after few months i decided to install Arma 2 and DayZ and play again.

I have Arma 2 and Arma 2 OA on steam, so i downloaded them through steam.

 

My steps during the installation:

 

Dwnloaded and installed Arma 2, then started it into menu. Then exit.

Dwnloaded and installed Arma 2 OA, then started it into menu. Then exit.

Dwnloaded and installed DayzMod.

Dwnloaded and installed Dayz Commander.

 

I have actuall DayZMod(1.8.2 patch) actuall Arma 2 patch(1.63.125548)

DayZ Commander showing everything as "Up to date"

 

Running steam as administrator.

 

But, when i try to connect in game i got stuck at black screen saying "Čekej na server", that basically means "Wait for server"(or "Wait for host"? Not sure.) Sometimes i get lucky and manage to join into lobby, but if im there i can't click on OK so and if i can all players names are next to grey box, and it get stuck on "Receiving mission file".

 

I spend like 8 hours googling, trying stuffs, tried check Arma 2 / Arma 2 OA files through steam ( control said that it couldnt check one file and it will be re-downloaded - but nothing happens, steam didnt download it). Im really desperate.. and tiread, after all those hours trying fixing it. So if any of you have idea how to fix it i would really appreciate it.

 

Also can't join any other game(like wasteland etc.). So far i tried about 50 DayZ servers, stuck happens on every of them. Please help, thanks.

I also have the exact same problem only since I tried to re-install. After having my hard drives replaced  I decided to download a fresh copy instead of moving over files, everything seemed to be fine I had checked a wasteland server after i finished installing both Arma 2 and OA, all worked fine but after I installed Dayz Mod and tried to join I get the same problem either stuck at wait for host, stuck at receiving mission file or just freezes once I hit OK or disconnect, this is for both Dayz and arma servers. Tried moving over the old files and replacing new does not work and steam keeps download a non validated file which seems to never be fixed.

you started dayzmod via Steam and not dayzcommander?

Don't use dayzcommander, it has lot of issues. Use dayzlauncher if you want to play other mods than dayzmod.

No i started DayZMod through DayZCommander. Also tried DayZLauncher. Problem is i cant connect to any server so your last advice won't really help me. :(

sure, since you did not follow the advice.

 

Go to Steam, download install "arma 2: dayz mod" game, it's free if you have both ArmA games.

If you have already installed dayzmod via Steam, check the local game content of this game (right click with your mouse on the game > Properties > Local files > Verify integrity), Steam will automatically detect corrupted files and fix them.You can check also the integrity of both Arma2 games.

Don't use Dayz launcher yet. Don't tweak any parameters via Steam UI.

Launch Dayzmod game from Steam window, connect to a vanilla dayz mod server: on the multiplayer screen (server list) you should find "dayzmod" in the mission name, and "1.8.2" in the server name
