DayZ Commander and ArmA 2 Updates

[Rixen 2]

I've manually updated ArmA II several times but every time I launch DayZ Commander it says I have a very old outdated version. I click the Install button there and it launches the beta patcher. The OA beta patcher quickly goes to 100% and says "ArmA2OA patch 1.62 has been applied successfully." but any time I go back to it it says I still have the outdated ArmA version. Nearly all servers are returning bad version errors so I'd really like to fix this.

Same Here

Go to your Arma 2 OA directory and then go into the beta folder which is located:

X:\...\arma 2 operation arrowhead\Expansion\beta

Copy the arma2oa.exe file from it.

Go back to the base OA folder, rename the exe there to something like: ArmA2OAbup.exe

Then paste the .exe from the beta folder.

That worked for me (steam version).

I have this same problem too.. Particularly Day-Z Commander as well. Here's one of the solutions that might work.

First Solution

STEAM VERSION

My Computer > Drive (C:) > Programs > Steam > Steamapps > Common > ARMA 2: OA > Expansion > Beta

Delete the beta folder, empty the trash bin and re-install the right version from..

Manual Download(.zip File)

http://www.arma2.com/beta-patch.php

Or you can have it automatically downloaded from Six Launcher or Day-Z Commander. Try both if one does not work

Second Solution

Go in Day-Z Commander, go to settings, check the box Override ARMA 2: OA

After that, copy the File Location from Solution 1 then paste it in the override box for ARMA 2: OA.

Then update once again

WARNING: There are some cases where it says 'Looks like ARMA 2 isn't installed' if you happen to have it on Steam, launch it and it'll be resolved :)
