Shard (DayZ) 24 Posted July 18, 2012 I just got back from vacation to the US, where dayz ran nice and smooth. But now that I am back the nearest server has to high ping to play on. 390pingAnd I can't even update my Six Launcher because it says"Unexpected exception during UpdateHost list is exhausted"This is after it gets stuck on trying to ' Verifying beta: 0% ' for like 5 minutes.I paid 30 dollars for this.

Trout (DayZ) 67 Posted July 18, 2012 No, not to my knowledge. South Africa was spared the Apocolypse and there are no Infected there. So no servers to wipe them out on. Congrat's! You win! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

eastonch@gmail.com 4 Posted July 18, 2012 Six Launcher SUCKS in my opinion. I always use the manual updating of files, jeez, it's copy and pasting, and editing a .bat file to add ";@dayz" to the end of a section. However, maybe you could try using a local private VPN that has a quick connection, ~1GBIT to the outside lands, that will speed up the process of everything if you have a low ping to that, and that has a low ping to the servers. It's just relaying. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Trout (DayZ) 67 Posted July 18, 2012 (edited) Ha! Sorry man, I thought it was funny.latest beta here--> http://www.arma2.com/beta-patch.php/ download and it will install itself. If installer gets stuck at 100% and "appears" to be still transfering, dont worry, its done.There is another section on the froums here (maybe under new players or something) with many posts on how to update and install. Go look for it as you are really posting these types of questions in the wrong section of the forums.Good luckEDIT: Wasn't even looking for it and found this---> http://dayzmod.com/forum/index.php?/topic/1808-guide-installation-guide-steam-retail-mixed-beta-common-errors/Should help Edited July 18, 2012 by Trout Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Shard (DayZ) 24 Posted July 18, 2012 Nope, get the same error on Six launcher, despite having updated it. It cannot verify the Beta, and keeps giving me the error I gave earlier. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Trout (DayZ) 67 Posted July 18, 2012 Hmmm. Shard, don't know what to say.There is another program like Six launcher called DayZ Commander. Did you try that? I also suggest posting this in New Players or some other "help" type part of the forums.Good luck. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
