alexherrera2@gmail.com 1 Posted July 25, 2012 (edited) Not working for me, validated both Arma and OA. Both were missing 2 files which steam downloaded.. updated to newest patch, made sure dayZ commander was up to date. Still getting kicked from servers once I get to the server menu(edit) forgot to add that I did run both games after validating.... :D Edited July 25, 2012 by slightlyalex Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

subtle 29 Posted July 25, 2012 All this pointless hassle because people are so hung up on using SixLauncher to play this game. It's as though ten people said SixLauncher is the only way to go when playing this game and then it spread like a virus and people now assume you have to use it otherwise you will run in to problems.Follow the instructions on the DayZ Wiki site and complete the manual installation of the game. Then once that is done create the shortcut on your desktop from the command prompt that it instructs you to. Rename it DAYZ. That's it. You're done. You never have to deal with SixLauncher again.I have Steam as well. Went through the two updates yesterday. Double clicked my shortcut and was in game with no issue. You people are making this a lot more difficult than it has to be. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Devin (DayZ) 17 Posted July 25, 2012 Trying it now, cant believe this many people are having the same issue.I also am shocked i was missing 20+ files, for whatever reason. I dont understand how files just vanish like that. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
