I cannot connect to any servers since the latest update.

Recommended Posts

Hello.

I've always updated DayZ the way i always have, manually. So i did it the same when 1.7.2 got released. But i couldnt connect to any servers, so i installed a new beta patch called "ARMA2_OA_Build_94444.zip". I installed it by running the .exe file and then started the game.

I still couldnt join any servers. So i installed the newest at the time called "ARMA2_OA_Build_94700.zip".

But STILL i can't join any servers.

So i tried using the SixLauncher, and updating via that launcher made it so that i could connect to servers. So for now i'm playing using that but i wanna play on steam, not on sixlauncher so i'd like help to fix this problem.

Since i updated via the sixlauncher i figured it'd be okay to start from steam now, it didnt work. I went into my @dayZ folder and found a folder called .rsync. I figured it had to be from SixLauncher so i removed it and tried via steam again, but it still didnt work.

(BTW The thing that is not working is that, when i select a server in the list, there pops up a red X to the left and it says that the version is either 1.60.44444 or 1.60.94700. There IS some servers that is running 1.60 but still is in 1.7.2 of dayz, but that's so few servers that it's hard to play with friends.)

So i opened arma 2 again and checked at the bottom right corner in the main menu and it said i had "1.60.93825".

Well, there's the problem, now i gotta figure out how to update it from 1.60.93825 ---> 1.60.44444/94700.

Help appreciated.

I assume you did change the arma2oa.exe in the main folder? Once you extract the beta patch, you will need to copy arma2oa.exe (can be found in the beta folder) to the main folder (\Steam\steamapps\common\arma 2 operation arrowhead), paste it and overwrite (or you can change the name of the current arma2oa.exe to arma2oa.bck.exe to back it up first, and then paste the new arma2oa.exe)
