Multiple troubles with DayZ

Recommended Posts

Hello and i'm having a serious problems with DayZ, here they are:

 

1st: DayZ will not install anymore on Steam, i have the game in my library and everything but it doesn't say "Play" It continues to say "Install" and i have already uninstalled and re installed (Trying to fix BattlEye) and this is what happened, anyways as i click "Install" and i accept the memory usage it does not install anything and continues to say "Install" even when i checked the folders and EVERYTHING is in there.

 

2nd: BattlEye, i do not understand their help and tried to contact support but whenever i used to run DayZ it would still continue to say "BattlEye has failed to install" Here is what i tried:

 

1. Uninstalling/Re installing (Gave the first problem)

2. Re installing the BattlEye

3. Running it as Administrator

4. Restarting my PC

If there's anything i'm doing wrong or anybody has an idea to fix it i do have a Skype if you'd like to contact me or reply on this forum on how to fix the first question or the second, please let me know the game sounds really fun and I've played many buggy games i'll get used to it. Thank you.

Make sure you are showing hidden files & folders (Control Panel > Folder options) as the Appdata folder will be Hidden by default.

First of all exit the DayZ client and Steam.
 

  • STEP ONE: Delete Battleye Folder in Appdata

    Find the Battleye folder located in
    "C:\Users\YOURUSERNAME\AppData\Local\DayZ".
    Delete this Battleye folder and all it's content entirely.

    (To locate directory navigate through explorer or
    Press the WINDOWS KEY + E to open explorer > In the adress field write %localappdata%)

     
  • STEP TWO: Download BEClient.dll

    Go to Battleye[www.battleye.com] and download the 32-bit BEClient.dll for DayZ.
    (Save it somewhere easily located, it will be used soon.)
     
  • STEP THREE: Replace old BEClient with the new one

    Move or copy/paste the downloaded BEClient.dll to a folder named Battleye in the DayZ install directory (replace the already existing BEClient.dll).

    The DayZ install directory is by default located at:
    "C:\Program Files (x86)\Steam\SteamApps\common\DayZ"
    (this is NOT the same appdata DayZ/Battleye folder as the one we visited earlier)

    (To locate directory navigate through explorer or
    Right click DayZ in Steam > Properties > Local Files > Browse Local Files)
  • STEP FOUR: Restart your computer
  • STEP FIVE: Update Battleye

    IMPORTANT: Start Steam as administrator
    (right click Steam and choose Run as Administrator)

    Start DayZ and join a server, BattlEye should update correctly.
