Just wanted to point out for those interested that NAG now has a server for this highly popular ArmA 2 mod. We upped it yesterday, and it was filled with players within 10 minutes. The player count has been upped to 50 today, and according to Geometrix the server load is so low that they might even be able to run two servers simultaneously.

The official thread can be found here.

Hope to see many of you in-game.

Just make sure you need to buy Operation Arrowhead as well. Private Military Company if you want hi-res textures on your characters.

Are people still playing regular ArmA? I wanna get back into it, BF3s lag has made it unplayable...

Is this DayZ thing a zombie shooter?? gonna read the wiki a bit later when I dont have people in my office lol

Also, Im gonna need to patch up to the latest version...is there a big patch I can install or must it be done in stages??

Any help i keep getting an error that my files isn't signed correctly.
I have arma 2 free and arma operation arrowhead.
I installed them on the same folder and copied required files, then used the dayz installer to install the dayz mod.

I can't get onto the server half the time because I cant disable the mods that arent allowed, and when I eventually get THAT right I get beaten to a pulp by a zombie. VERY frustrating game.

And on a side note, after reading a book about the occult and finishing a degree in astrophysics, I got this game working. Now the nag server keeps telling me I haven't got CBA_Main, but if I install anything CBA the server says I have disallowed mods! Grrrrrrrr.

So any advice will be greatly appreciated. I can't find @hive on the mod lists either.

This mod is awesome so far. Is there anyone on here that wants to team up with me?

I installed everything from scratch yesterday and here's all that I did (I have the steam version):

1.installed both games.
2.ran both games once.
3.created directories '@DayZ\Addon' directly under operation arrowhead folder and copied dayz contents there. (cant remember if it's 'Addon' or 'Addons' but check in the dayz download notes)
4.download the arma 2 beta update and run the update.
5.directly in the operation arrowhead folder there is a .bat/.cmd file called 'arma2_co_beta' (or something close to that). make a backup of the file just in case. edit the file and on the last line where the command line parameters are written just add "-mod=@DayZ" before the '-window' and '-nosplash' parameters. you can erase the '-window' parameter to open it fullscreen.
6.run the above mentioned file directly and not the steam shortcut.

That's exactly what I did yesterday and it worked. I might have the exact filenames wrong atm because I'm not at home but lemme know if something is not there that should be there etc.

BTW I also get that error about missing CBAmain but only right after I enter the game and as far as I can tell it hasn't affected anything.

Just a heads up, NAG is now running a Lingor Island server alongside ZA5. Lingor is not an official map, so the server uses a private Hive, meaning all your progress is saved locally and will not carry over to other servers.
