RE: Day z, an arma II zombie mod - yottabyte - 05-15-2012
Mine is still slowly downloading. I found this quick guide on how to install it, so I guess this is what I'm going with.
Quote:STEAM INSTALLATION
1) Download both ARMA 2 and ARMA 2: Operation Arrowhead through Steam.
2) Run the game once before proceeding.
3) Download DayZ Mod files. http://armafiles.info/dayz/
4) Make a folder named "@DayZ" in your Arma 2: Operation Arrowhead directory.
5) Inside "@DayZ" folder create another folder named "Addons". It should look like this: C:\Program Files (x86)\Steam\steamapps\common\arma 2 operation arrowhead\@DayZ\Addons
6) Unpack all DayZ Mod files in the "Addons" folder.
7) Go to Steam and right click Arma 2: Operation Arrowhead, go to 'Properties', 'Set Launch Options', add "-mod=@dayz -nosplash" without quotes in the target line and click OK. You can find other launch options, like windowed mode here: http://community.bistudio.com/wiki/Arma2:_Startup_Parameters
Run Operation Arrowhead and select "Launch ARMA 2: Combined Operations" to play the game.
If everything is installed correctly you should see "@dayz" line under "ArmA 2" on the right side of the menu screen.
Use the filter to find DayZ servers.

Good tutorial, way better than the readme. You don't need to download anything from the "installer" and "old" folder. The old folder just has previous versions and the installer holds whatever more stuff you don't need. No it's not an easy one click installer.

Got everything downloaded and installed
I've been running along the coast for half an hour and all I've seen is a rabbit and a dead guy. Awesome
Edit: Walked other way. Found town. Saw zombies. Was attacked. Pissed myself. Wasted all my ammo. Killed three zombies. Logged off. Not playing that more for now.

I have the games so I will try to install this tonight. This could be very fun if we can work together!

Most likely all play together saturday because having to wait for all the Americans etc. Is annoying and wastes time :c
But we (yotta,I and people who can play) will begin in an hour or so, so if your wanting to play just talk to me on skype.

ARMA II: Combined Operations is the top selling game on steam right now because of this mod... damn servers are all being ddos'd by all us new players. I guess I'll try to play tomorrow
