@patrick2020, download a thing called dayz launcher on the internet, it has a mods section that will allow you to download the files

Tomato download origins 1.8.2 and DayZ 1.8.7 also look at the server you wanna play you'll see that it shows the things you need to download. I haven't been playing this for a while but this was the way I solved the problem.

I can't find day 1.8.2

Some dumb childs here. You don't need to download the standard dayz mod as it's already inside epoch/overpoch. You just need DayZ Overwatch and Epoch and start with both.

Hey! First of all thank you I'm new these mod games. I can not find Day 1.8.2 on the mods. There is DayZ 1.8.7 and/or Origins Mod 1.8.2 . What should I do? Should I install both?
