Hopefully a typical problem...

Alrighty, when I first tried to get this to work I created the @DayZ/Addons folder in the wrong location, and when I tried to join a server I got the classic "You cannot play/edit this mission, it is dependent on downloadable content that has been deleted.dayz_code, dayz_weapons, dayz_equip etc."

I then realised I had unpacked the rar contents into the wrong place, and corrected this and installed them in the steam/steamapps/common/arrowhead folder. I now get the same error message, but now it doesnt have the list of files that im missing. It simply says You cannot play/edit this mission, it is dependent on downloadable content that has been deleted'

I cannot for the life of me figure out why! I have the 1.6 version of arrowhead, I am running steam as administrator, I am launching the game as combined ops, I have run the mod from the launch code (the @dayz symbol thing appears on the main screen when I get into the game), I have installed everything from the armamods/dayz us server into the Addons folder (without any subfolders) and I still get this message. Im sorry to do this, I would post here if I hadnt exhausted all the options I can think of, but I really am at my wits end now. Totally stumped. Any help massively appreciated!

Try deleting MPMissionCache in user/AppData/Local/Arma2OA/MPMissioinCache. Than delete @Dayz folder & download all files on this sites download section. Make sure to check latest verion of Dayz before you join as it gets updated regulary.

Will do, thanks for taking the time to help.

Quick further question though, I see different files to download on the US/SWE mirrors? I used the files on the US one last time (dated 15 may @ 06:14) with a total of 7 .rars

Is this the right stuff?


Oh, and I dont appear to have the file you recommended I delete!

All it contains is 2 folders called "players" and "squads" and a file called ARMA2OA.rpt

hmm!

1: US 7 files correct

2: I dont have steam version, but should be the same location for MPMissionCache. Have you played an ArmA2 mp game yet?. Maybe try joining some random vanilla MP game, maybe will create MPMissionCache file.
