Hello all,

We are pleased to announce the release of ArmA 2 DayZ Epoch 1.0.6.2, [will shortly be] available for download at: http://epochmod.com/a2dayzepoch.php

1.0.6.2 Client Package

1.0.6.2 Server Package

We've further refined Epoch 1.0.6/1.0.6.1, fixing and expanding many of the features that were added. Please see the change-log below for a list of new features, fixes, and changes. Throughout the update process we have kept up to date with changes from DayZ mod 1.9.0

Server admins should read the README.TXT included in the server package. BE and server profile/config directories should be placed outside of the A2/OA folder, i.e. in a folder C:\DayZ_Epoch_Server_Config to prevent hackers from obtaining RCON/admin passwords!

Addons from 1.0.5.1 and older are not guaranteed to be compatible with 1.0.6 releases and greater. Please see the updated resources forum for mods which are guaranteed to be compatible, otherwise please be thorough when testing older mods on your 1.0.6 server. A list of variables that have change is available as part of the 1.0.6 changelog txt file included in the client package.
