Six Updater 1.7.2.5

[Forceflare 166]

I'm trying to update to 1.7.2.5 using Six Updater since DayZ Commander gives me errors whenever I try to download it. It's telling me my DayZ and my Beta Patch are both up to date but I'm only on 1.7.2.4 so that doesn't make sense. It doesn't recognize that 1.7.2.5 even exists.... Anybody have some form of solution?

According to yesterdays long 36 page post of people asking all sorts of questions, and this answer being on the first page, though I haven't read the posts today. As of yesterday six updater and dayzcommander both didnt have the new update, you had to maually install it from the torrent or the couple of people who dropped it on mediafire or elsewhere. The reasoning behind this was that rocket wanted to test the hotfix before it was put up on the launchers. So unless something has changed today that I am not aware of yet that is the reason.

the update is manual only right now in order to test it, rocket will release it to six launcher when hes sastisfied its stable, read theofficial update post

Today my SL, after veryfing game, offer me to install 1.7.2.5 and i do this. After SL finish update, there is still 1.7.2.4 above verify button. I start the game.... on main screen in lower left corner: 1.7.2.4. Since than i can't log in on to my main server (where i play mostly). On my secondary.... am keep coming back to the coast no mathere where i log off prevoiusly.

Then i manualy download 1.7.2.5, copy in addons folder. Now i have 1.7.2.5 on main in game screen but rest is same.... can't log in on main server. On secondary... keep coming back to coast.

EDIT: They are totaly unorganized. Rocket is waiting for full update test and at the same time more and more servers keep switching to 1.7.2.5

PS: Sorry for my english... its not my native language.

just to let you guys know, the new patch isn't on six yet, what it updates is the arma patch NOT the new dayz patch!

Six Updater was updating the arma 2 beta patch. That could have been why you couldnt log in to your server.

so im new to arma and this six launcher....... me friend rented a hfb server we see a couple of updates,

Dayz 1.7.2.5 HIVE 0.7.3 and 95819 Beta Patch FIXED and then Dayz 1.7.2.5 HIVE 0.7.3 and 95883 Beta Patch LATEST

i am going to go with 95833 with hive .7.3 dayz 1/7/2/5 is the version we should have on the server. my question i think might have been answered above but i want to make sure im not breaking anything ether on the server or my client.

we install the latest update for the HFB server? im going with yes here

and then i copy the torrent files from the main update topic(done) into my add ons folder overwriting the files there?(which is the normal way to do it)

i ask as they do not over write and i end up with double the amount of files in the add ons folder....the ones originally in the add ons folder have .gz extensions and the news ones do not. so do i delete the older pbo files and what not or add the 15 new files there?

this includes the silly cherno/nw airfield/balota graphix nightmares fix right?
