Hi, I've re-installed the entire Arma 2 package (including oa) multiple times while trying to get Daizy to work. I'll try and explain the best I can;

Originally, I followed the tutorial that is posted here; http://kodabar-dayz-daizy-single-player-forum.1084782.n5.nabble.com/RELEASE-DaiZy-Chernarus-1-7-6-1-FACTIONS-2-1-06-07-FINAL-RELEASE-td4144.html and everything worked fine, except that I was never able to launch the game.

I then tried going a couple different routes, and checked out different tutorials, including the one here; http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=HYxsR1E6Ahc and then I was able to launch a server, although I was stuck at the spawn point, unable to move.

Lastly, I tried using older files, and different tutorials once again, and finally I was able to launch the game, and everything working fine except for one slight problem, nothing was in the game except for me... No zombies, no npc's/ai, no nothing... -_-

Throughout my other failed attempts, I got several errors, pretty much everything from "You cannot play/edit this game due to deleted dayz files" or something like that. And even a couple simple errors that told me direct x 9 was not present, even though it is. Most problems only came after the update of the oa beta updater. But I think I was supposed to do that anyway? "I think".

I honestly tried pretty much everything, and followed most tutorials I could find, and now I am hoping someone can help by actually telling me what to do. I now have the most recent Daizy factions files (2.1) and most recent DayZ files as well (1.7.7). I also have the Arma 2 oa beta updater and practically everything else from all my failed attempts. I think I have everything necessary, and now just need someone to help guide me a bit more precisely. I will now just wait for a response, and I'll have the Arma 2 and its oa with their natural files, no dayz or daizy installed or present, so everything will be ready.

Thanks in advance, I hope this can get solved.

I'm not sure why it's not working, as I've never seen that error to start off with.

But I'd suggest downloading DayZ Commander and install the real DayZ, go on a server and see if it works, if that works, we're 1 step closer. I can guide you from there, probably.
