[andries 0]

Hello guys since days is there the Arma 2 community grow's.

so Whit all the new player also comes alot of new problems.

i decided to make a how to instal Dayz manualy so you dont have to deal whit the SixUpdater crap this wil give you less headhicks trust me :P

sorry if my english language isnt that good but em a dutch guy so yea

here we go :D

Step one: instal your game's Arma 2 & Arrowhead if you use the non steam version you can update your game at http://www.arma2.com...=folder〈=en if you use the steam version it wil update automatically

step two: download the addons manual here from one of these links if you live in europa http://uk1.dayz.nu/latest/

http://se1.dayz.nu/latest/

for the us http://us2.dayz.nu/latest/

and the beta patch here http://www.arma2.com/beta-patch.php/

step three: now we first start arma 2 into the game menu than close it then start your arma 2 Ao to the menu and close it.

step five: now make a new folder and name it @dayz open the folder and make a new folder in there call it addons put the addons that you downloaded in the addons map. if you have done that there should be 14 files in

step six: now you go to your game folder for the steam user it wil be in F:\steam\steamapps\common\arma 2 operation arrowhead for me it says F:\ because i have installed my game on a diffent Drive for you it should be C:\steam\steamapps\common\arma 2 operation arrowhead if you installed your game on C drive

now for the non steam user its similar just go to your arma 2 operation arrowhead directory

step 7: now we put your @dayz folder in the arma 2 operation arrowhead map when you have done that instal the beta patch as administrator right click on the patch setup and click the administrator thingy and it should instal when you done that it will place a shortcut in your main game directory so go back to your arma 2 operation arrowhead map and put the shortcut to your desktop now start your game whit the beta patch and go to the expansion menu click there your Dayz and @dayz on and your ready to play

i hope this will make it easy for you guys and that i explain it well for you all

you might want to use http://se1.dayz.nu/latest/ rather than uk1, seems to update quicker!

Screw it, this is complicated. I'm just gonna use Six. Steam would be nice but too much of a headache.

Isn't there a way that i can update DayZ to the most recent patch and be able to access it from Steam? i know how to download DayZ and play it fine, but when i access it from steam, i cant play on most servers because my version is outdated. I figured out how to play your way, and i really don't want to play using that "Six" program or whatever it is that they recommend. I would like to be able to go to steam, click on "Play Arma: OA" and be able to play that way. but i cant figure out how to update DayZ for Steam.

you can. and six launcher you only need as an updater program. after updater installs the latest updates of arma2oa beta patch and dayz you can either goto options and close six launcher after launch or close out and launch arma2oa:co
