If only DayZ included the Mission Editor or allowed you to call in AI help.

Then 8 Teams or Marines loaded into the helos and they flew off to Balota Airport with AH-1Z and AH-64D support where they unloaded and cleared the area. At the same time 1 5 ton truck loaded with 2 rifle squads and 2 HMMWs and bikes muscled down the roads to attack balota from Kamorov direction. It was awesome. The Russians were set up on the airfield and in the town. they had sniper teams and AA and AT as well as MG and rifle squads. The AI acted like pros. Lost 2 helos in the attack. Ill link the mission when I am finished editing it.
This is a DayZ discussion thread. Nothing of what you just said (other than map locations) have to do with DayZ.

Don't update DayZ with SixUpdater folks, apparently the version it is pulling down isn't working and is causing big issues with the Hive and in game attributes such as the gear menu and items.

Also, new beta patch has been released but that isn't available to download just yet.

you need to use Six Launcher. Six Updater is for the other mods and servers. such as Project Reality.

I don't need to use either. I hate that program and I always update manually.

1.7.2.3 is borked as expected; can't join any server.

I was just on. I used to do the manual install but found I have a much quicker time connecting to servers using the SixLauncher.

I wish I had recorded what happened earlier. There was a chopper on a roof in Cherno with a bunch of guys around it. I was randomly firing my AKM at them to annoy them. Then they sent their chopper after me and I let them eat lead. Didn't blow up the chopper unfortunately but I sent it packing.

So, I had Arma II (retail) and I'm currently downloading the 1.6 combined operations patch. I've already downloaded the OA latest patch (94945) and Six Updater.

I'm also downloading the OA standalone game.

Do i need any other downloads?

You're pretty much set.

Bummer. I need to re-install Arma II?

I'm getting this in the bottom left corner of six-updater. Also when i loaded CO for first time it had messages about missing files.

My guess is that you are missing some patches/updates, there are quite a few in order to get things working right, and a few of the steps are different if you are like me and don't have a Steam version of the game. If so, search for installing Dayz with a non-steam version.

I know the latest beta was causing some issues (94945) I would use the beta just before that to avoid any problems for now.

Beware a chat request from someone on Steam posing as an Admin with the name "Admin".

This person is phishing for your login information.

They claim you need to update SteamGuard within 5 hours or your account will be disconnected or you may also begin seeing bans. There is a fake Steam Site link in the message.

Just to be safe i changed my Steam Password.

Dude just use Sixlauncher and Sixupdater to get the missing files.

Ufgy spotted this bad boy across a field as we were playing, so he spotted me as I ran over to collect it.



Not sure what the deal is with it, it was parked right on a road (horrible spot to park a vehicle) and it had a good amount of ammo in it, blood bags, a tent, and a few other things. So it seems like it was someones vehicle, just not sure why they parked it there, maybe they died? Either way ours now, bad damn is it loud and slow.

Looks like I'll not be playing....

Re-installed both Arma II (retail) and Operation Arrowhead (steam). Same problem with missing files. I verified steam cache for OA and it said one file missing, will re-acquire. Except nothing was reacquired or there was no prompt to do so.

Following that I updated to the most recent Combined Ops update (1.60) and once downloaded it wouldn't install as it said OA was missing or corrupt.

When i have run Six Launcher (and installed latest beta and launch DayZ) I get a message "No Enrty - bin.config" something missing message and boots me to the standard game.

So my issues are with the Arma II end not installing properly. I've followed guides online. I've now uninstalled all local OA content and am DL'ing again.

Can someone fill in any missing steps?

Installed retail version Arma II (should I then update it to latest standalone Arma II patch?)
Install OA through Steam.
Download latest Combined Ops patch (1.6?)
At some point run Combined Ops (or both games separate?)
Run Six Launcher.
Update Beta.
Launch DayZ from Six Launcher
Epic Fail.

Edit: Will have to link Steam version of OA to retail files for Arma II I think?

I'm going to just give up.

I finally get to some form of server choice but any that almost let me connect (when it's not just kicking or not connecting) are telling me i have add ons that are not signed for - so delete them or obtain new keys.

Given the hours lost trying to install the required software and updates it's just not worth anymore of my time. I'll keep an eye on this thread in case it gets better to access any time soon.

Disappointed, really wanted to play it.
