Note: Both server and client should be updated to current A2OA stable 1.63.131129 or newer.
##Basic Install Guide
1. Install/update your [[Visual C++ Redistributable 2015 (x86 version)](https://www.microsoft.com/en-us/download/details.aspx?id=48145)] The file is called vc_redist.x86.exe
2. Download both client and server files and extract to the root `Arma 2 Operation Arrowhead` folder. Example: `C:\Program Files (x86)\Steam\steamapps\common\Arma 2 Operation Arrowhead`. On some Windows systems you may need to "UnBlock" the dll files. Right-click the file, Properties and click "Unblock".
3. Install MySQL server and create a new MySQL database called `dayz_epoch`. Next import the epoch.sql file.
4. Open HiveExt.ini and change your MySQL connection information.
5. Launch the server with `-mod=@DayZ_Epoch;@DayZ_Epoch_Server;` use the *.bat files found in Config-Examples folder for an example.
##Basic Upgrading Guide
1. Do step #1 in the install guide above.
2. Do step #2 in the install guide above. Be sure to update to the new MPMission, dayz_server, BattlEye filters and HiveExt.dll too.
3. Connect to your MySQL server. Make a backup first to be safe, then run the 1.0.6_Updates.sql file on your dayz_epoch database.
4. Inside the "Keys" folder on your server remove any previous day_epoch*.bikey keys. As of 1.0.6 our bikey is called dayz_epoch106.bikey and we will use a new one for each release.
