Looks like balota airfield to me, so I wouldn't expect too bad of a wait time. Also you could camp buildings in elektro which is a city that almost always has multiple people in it. | ||

Haha, yeah the "this can take a very long time" is misleading. For me its done in a few seconds, click OK "Stuff isnt installed correctly" click OK again and I can play just fine.  | ||

Use a program like winrar to extract the files that are in the rar. After the you extract the files, run the .exe file and let it update. You will see the update happen and after it hits 100% hit okay. To make sure the update worked fine launch your game from the beta patch client. Look at the bottom right hand corner during the main screen. You should see 1.60.94444 and if you don't see it then your not launching the beta client or it did not install properly. Personally I looked into it and launch a .bat file with a command line to launch my game. Just look around and maybe check with DayZ tech support. | ||

I am confused. When you are at the main menu, in the top right it should say: arma2 beta expansion @DayZ In the bottom right it should say Version: 1.60.94444 Does it say this for you? | ||

Mine always says it did not install correctly. Then a box comes up to install with recommended settings. Click that button and it will not give you the error anymore. Also, depending on how you launch the game, you may need to use another program to launch or go to your dayz beta folder and launch from the beta. There is a lot of information on google on how to do this if you have any trouble. Good luck | ||

+ Show Spoiler [My Guide to Installing] + Updating to DayZ Version 1.7.1.X (and similar, and higher) - Includes Installing ArmA2 Beta Patch ---------------------------------------------------------------- NOTE: You must follow ALL 3 sections to ensure your DayZ runs properly on new / updated servers. ---------------------------------------------------------------- I. Updating DayZ Version 1. Download the latest DayZ files (via torrent): http://cdn.armafiles.info/latest.torrent 2. Go into the folder you downloaded after it's complete, and copy those 14 (at the time of this writing) files, and paste them to your ArmA2: OA dayz folder. 3. They should go in the "@dayz\addons\" directory. NOTE: I recommend also creating a duplicate of the files in a folder called v1.7.1.X (or whatever version) should you need to downgrade ever Now DayZ is up-to-date. ---------------------------------------------------------------- II. Installing/Updating ArmA2 Beta Patch 1. Download the latest ArmA2 Beta Patch: http://www.arma2.com/beta-patch.php (it's the one at the very top in green) 2. Go into the Expansion folder in your AmrA2: OA directory. Delete the folder that says "beta" (should you have one) 3. Unzip and run the .exe (application). 4. It should pop up a message box or 2, just hit OK and it'll install fairly quickly. 5. Now, in your ArmA2: OA folder, it'll have an .exe (application) called "ArmA2OA.exe" (in the same place your @dayz folder is) 6. Make a new folder next to that .exe, name it something like "origin exe", "old exe", or something similar 7. Copy the "ArmA2OA.exe" into that new folder (to preserve the old exe, in case something goes wrong). NOTE: If you've already copied the original file, do not copy the .exe again, as it'll copy the beta .exe from a previous copy. 8. Now copy & paste the .exe (application) found in Expansion\beta into the ArmA2: OA directory. Your beta patch is now up-to-date. ---------------------------------------------------------------- III. Launch Options and Ensuring playability. IF YOU'RE RUNNING STEAM (assuming you have Beta installed): 1. Right Click on ArmA2: OA in steam, go to properties. 2. Click on Set Launch Options. 3. Paste the following (without quotes): "-nosplash -mod=@dayz -skipIntro -noPause -beta=Expansion\beta;Expansion\beta\Expansion" 4. Hit OK. 5. Run DayZ as usual. IF YOU'RE NOT RUNNING STEAM: NOTE: It should be very similar, but instead of going to properties/launch options, it'll be amended to the end of your target on your shortcut. What do I mean? Make a shortcut to the AmrA2OA (or whatever) exe, right click, and look at the target. It shows where it goes. At the end of the quotes, add the following (without quotes): "-nosplash -mod=@dayz -skipIntro -noPause -beta=Expansion\beta;Expansion\beta\Expansion" ---------------------------------------------------------------- | ||
