Download Dayz Commander (just google it) and click "Versions" in the top right corner. There you can update Arma 2, DayZ and Dayz Commander if there are updates you haven't downloaded yet.

I have Dayzcommander, it won't update. What directories are you supposed to set for it?

For Arma 2 im using E:\Steam\steamapps\common\arma 2

For O:A I am using : E:\Steam\steamapps\common\arma 2 operation arrowhead

Both of these are the games main directory but it refuses to update. Well to be more precise it does the update, says it is updated under "Versions" but the old version is still installed.

Edit: I have tried to update it so many times already. I am either doing something wrong or Fk my life.

How did you buy ArmA2:CO? Since I guess you used Steam to buy and download it.

If that's the case; just run Steam and it should update to the latest version by itself.

However, DayZ requires the beta patch and of course the latest version of DayZ itself. For this you can use SixUpdater, SixLauncher or DayZCommander.

Well I have the steam version. I can't actively update it anymore through steam. I tried using Six earlier today. I installed the game and I thought everything was all good. Except I couldn't join a single game. I would just constantly get a "Loading" in the middle of the screen, no progress bar, no sound no nothing.

I have read repeatably that Six does not have the latest version, and you need to manually download it. Well I don't know about that but I did manually download the 95913 build from http://www.arma2.com/beta-patch.php about an hour ago. I cannot get it to really work that way either. I installed it and read the "read me".

I then assumed using dayzcommander that perhaps I had to change the directory to the expansion/beta folder for O:A. That changed the version in the "Version" tab of dayzcommander to the most recent version, but when I launched the game I was missing textures and models.

Honestly I am about ready to die, I have been on my computer trying to do this since 1:15 PM. It is now 7:10.......
