Ok... Download dayz launcher. Go to the mods tab and download what ever version your looking for (1.8.6, epoch, overpoch etc) after mod version is downloaded next to it via the mod tab there should be a verify, click that to make sure you have the supported files. Also make sure that you open arma 2 and aoa so that you have the correct files, you don't have to play the game just load it one time. You should see servers populate under the server tab via dayz launcher.

I think that looks about right - I followed the instructions exactly without asking why, and it worked.

hey - while you have ArmA 2 open try the training missions or flying a helicopter - it's kind of fun :)
