ok so i used 6 launcher and i can now get to the servers window but every time i try to enter a game it goes through the laoding motions only to go back to the servers menu...
....anyone know why this is happening?
4 hours trying and the best i get is a black screen with a half fo a loading bar that doesnt move....
....anyone?
*edit
its worthwhile going to the DayZ forums mate there are threads stickied at the top of the page with full instructions.

worrom dot com download the auto updater let it install everything for you.. then download the necessary updates.
finaly got it to work after 10 posts on the official Dayz forums and about 8 hours of frustration. man this mod is hard to set up.
i downloaded the "6 Launcher" program. i had to run both Arma 2 and Arma 2 arrowhead at least once in normal mode. i had to make sure Steam was started as admin. had to reinstal Battleye from steam. i used 6 Launcher to start the game. and then i just tried at least 20 servers before one of them actually let me in.....
......but i am FINALY IN.
the game is actualy really fun. love how hard it is to survive and how almost impossible it is to get away once you have zombies after you....and i haven't had to deal with players yet.
the larger cities are normally hard to survive in due to the number of Z's and players but once you move a little further inland it becomes easier however so does the risk of other players killing you, watch your back stay low and to the tree lines and you should be fine and above all, watch who you trust some will befriend you only to shoot you in the back 10 minutes later.
