1.62.95417 "Stuck on Loading" Problem (No 6-launcher)

[Salmine 0]

Hello Chernarus survivals!

The 1.62.95417 patch just got relased and I updated my DayZ like always, maunally, perfectly. So I wanted to play in my main server (which was also updated to the same patch), It loaded almost all the way in to the game, to the part where it says Loading. I waited for like 15-30 minutes, it didnt do anything. I tried couple other servers, same problem. I found few servers which let me enter the game, but the gameplay was laggy, VERY laggy, even when I looked up to the sky, it had the same lag. It wasnt my graphics what were messing with me, beacouse I tried to change every little setting to the very lowest. Results, laggy. There was no escape from the lag so I gave up. I searched if I could somehow fix the loading error and I found some tweaks how to get it work, but they didnt work for me.

Here is what I have tried so far:

I tried to reinstall BattlEye and the whole game, (both arma 2 and arma OA, also opened them once after install)

Patch to the old version what I had (1.62.95389)

Run Steam as adminstrator

Restart Steam

Restart Computer

*Right click* Operation arrowhead, launch options, all kinds of launch commands

*Right click* Operation arrowhead, Local files, "Vertify integrity of game cache" and "Defragment cache files" sections

Asked help from friends

There seems to be nothing what I can do anymore, or is it ? Please reply if u know any kind of help for this issue.

P.S I dont want to install that Six Launcher/Updater what ever, I know it will work without it, beacause my friend is playing right now DayZ without it.

OK, so people, if you are having the same error as me with the 1.62.95417 beta patch, this is what you have to do.

1. Open your Mozilla Firefox, I know it sounds a bit weird that you must open a different browser to do this, but atleast my chrome didnt download anything when I tried.

http://dayzmod.com/?Download 2. Select SE/UK/US Mirror (you deside it)

3. Click on "here" option from the last line.

4. Download all the .rar files

5. Close you Arma 2 OA/DayZ

6. Locate your DayZ mod folder and then go --> addons and if you have some files in there, delete everything.

7. Place your .rar files in to the folder and select all the .rar files and select extract here.

8. When the extracting is complete, delete the .rar files.

9. Close everything up and open your DayZ and enjoy!

Only a few of the servers work, someone find a real fix.

No if you go to dayz homepage and download the whole expansion again it will now load with the dayz logo instead of the Humvee
