I have tried to download and install 1.60 but it says "! C:\Users\Taylor\Downloads\ARMA2OACORFT_Update_160.zip: CRC failed in ARMA2OA_Update_160.exe. The file is corrupt"

EDIT: My game is updated to 1.60 but I still can't play anything else I should try?

[Grizz (DayZ) 0]

WHY wont it work with PMC (private military company) and BAF (British armed forces)!!!!!

No one will reply to my threads?

It says the add_ons are bad serial keys for these add_ons. WHAT DOES THAT EVEN MEAN???

I can play them fine, but DayZ does not accept them?

Hey guys i have a problem i start the six launcher and join in a server then comes a message : Wait for Host.

I wait 1hour: Wait for host.

And my Firewall is turned off.

Please help me fast

[Skint (DayZ) 138]

Don't bother with any launcher/updater application, they are more trouble than they are worth.

Just do it manually, it is very easy, just a matter of downloading files, extracting, then copy and pasting.

If you keep old versions you can rollback when the new updates don't work (I have files back to 1.7.1).

Kep yourself in control and you will reduce the impact of any problems.

Is the Wait for Host or Waiting for player creates a Bug from the Six launcher? Please can someone help me i need it so much :)

Sounds like your game isn't the right version or you have custom addons laying around in official game addons folders.

Post the logs, especially RPT file; http://www.six-updater.net/p/support.html

The biggest problem users have isn't the Launcher but the state of their game installation.

We can try to better handle all these issues but they are not exclusive to launchers, they count just as much for manual installs, due to limitations in the game, patches or mods.

You can keep old files regardless of using Launcher, but more importantly - versions and fixes need to be moving forward, both on the DayZ development side, on the Servers side and on the Client side.

Nobody gets better from using older versions, you may experience it as the 'quickfix' but that doesn't change the fact.

For actual issues with the software, you can find the Support box to report them with details and log files, then we can actually solve the problems. http://www.six-updater.net/p/support.html

There's no need to set any of the options unless you need the options for a specific purpose.

Are you experiencing issues? If so please post details and log files http://www.six-updater.net/p/support.html

Hello,

I've downloaded Six Launcher and I use Steam version of ArmA II and ArmA II: OA, I did everything according to installation guide but now, when I launch Six Launcher and hiting the update button after a few seconds of download, my computer completely freezes (hangs) and forces me to restart the PC manually. I searched for answers and I found non so as final hope I'm coming here to ask for help, please tell me if there's a solution to my misfortune.

RIG:

Intel Core i5 750 machine with Windows 7 (64-bit) and 4GB Corsair Dominator DDR3 memory

ASUS Maximus III Extreme motherboard

XFX Radeon 5850 (which runs the game pretty good on high settings)

Got an Avira AntiVir Home Edition which I tried disabling while running the Six Launcher and it didn't help

Please, Please, Please, help me.

thank you in advance

Okej... I need help. Had a problem today regarding the same thing that the guy above is talking about.

1st off it doesnt update me to the latest the beta patch, when i manually install said beta patch six then redownloads and installs the old one...

The problem i have, is when i connect to a server using the installation given from six launcher.

I get the mission file, then the loading session with the tank and when im about to spawn the game crashes and it says

Arma 2 OA has stopped working....

Iv'e already reinstalled arma 2 oa true steam and spended 2 hours of doing so... how can i solve this error?

Before installing six launcher i did try both arma 2 and arma 2 oa... And it both worked fine....

Help please!

Most of peoples issues actually are with Launcher/Updater errors. Most of the reports are from that very camp. Hardly anybody who manually installs/updates reports errors. I understand the need for installers for the less techie, but the installers need a function to revert to a stable build if the new one is bugged, as has happened the last 3 updates. Maybe you can modify 6Launcher to do this?

I totally agree about progress with updates, but when they don't work we can't test them to help progress. If the lastest build makes it impossible to start the mod, how can I test it? So, by using a previous stable build until the new one is fixed at least I can still do something useful by finding issues, it's not a retrograde step, and you can get better from it.

I hope lessons have been learnt about the update procedure for future updates to avoid the problems that always arise due to lack of testing. It amazes me that yet again the same debacle occurs at update time, I would have expected that you would be more prepared for the general release.

There are many good suggestions from the community on how to do this. Most popular is limited release on, say, 10-20 servers with a wide selection of users (guinea pigs?), approx 1000, to test the new update before general release. Prevent ALL servers/launchers/players updating straight off as this is where your problems stem from. Surely this will benifit everybody longterm?

thats too much common sense for developers ;-)

a bit offtopic from six, but applying alpha code onto beta code is really not going to help with dayz issues,although i admit i have very little idea on how long beta patches for arma last,for me it would make much more sense to use a stable arma build(well you know what i mean :-P) so it cuts down on all the confusion as to what the actual issues are, right now it can be 1 of 4 different software. this isnt the way to progress with an alpha as it just introduces too many unknowns
