Just as a follow-up to my earlier post' date=' I was finally able to successfully play last night.
I did the following (unsure what parts of this actually made the difference, or if it was just dumb luck):
Deleted local files for both Arma2 and Op. Arrowhead (including deleting the DayZ mod files).
Reinstalled Arma2 and OA.
Followed instrcutions provided by PsiSyndicate, as shown here: http://www.dayzmod.com/forum/showthread.php?tid=634
(these are different than the instructions given by Magnet in another sticky at these forums... Magnets methods didn't work for me)
I then copied the BattlEye folder from the Arma2 install folder into the Operation Arrowhead install folder. No idea if this was necessary or not, but others ahve suggested it. I noted that the OS folder didn't have a BattlEye folder at all until I put it there, so don't know if it's required or not.
I was then able to get in-game. Note that my first attempt still failed... I got to where I was waiting for my character to create, and could chat with players, etc, but never spawned in. So I tried a different server and got in quite quickly.

BRO! You are my hero!! It works flawlessly now. Thank you so fucking much! I suggest you make your own thread entitled "[FIX] "Requesting Character ..." and spawning stuck problem" and just paste your thing in there!
thanks so much bro!

Shit outta luck
Hey! i've been able to connect and spawn successfuly on some ANZ servers, but i got kicked off after 30 seconds every time because "my ping was too high" which it clearly wasn't... strange
-
thats awesome... so we are basically SOL
SOL?
-
are they going to do anything about it that you know of?
One of the devs asked for a ARMAIIOA.rpt or something file for the logs, but it doesn't exist..
-
Make each your own thread guys, so it will be more noticable, also Mothman, i reinstalled both ARMA's and it didn't fix it :( so good luck fixing it!
-
I'm getting this "error" only on US servers. All the EU and ANZ servers work fine.
Just tried this out on different servers, same thing :(
-
did you really need to make another thread? instead of loading ARMA2' date=' reinstall battle eye and revalidate both game files. then might work
[/quote']
YES IT'S WORTH MAKING ANOTHER THREAD. Reinstalling doesn't do fuck all, i reinstalled both ARMA's TWICE, which is 28 gb in bandwith that I completely wasted. Validating or reinstalling battle eye doesn't do nothing either. so YES, it's worth making another bloody thread!

Same, searched the steam folder and let windows search it, no results...

Same for me, all servers..

Hi guys,
I recently got ARMA II and Operation Arrowhead and installed this mod.
Every time I join a server, it stays at the "Requesting Character data.." etc screen for a very long time (usually 20-60 minutes) and then spawns me completely stuck. Sometimes I see player models just standing not moving at all, and trees and clouds do work, so does chat..
Anyone know what to do? This is really frustrating :(
ps. i'm on the steam version, if that matters
-
Same problem here, stays at the "Requesting Character data..." screen and takes about 30-60 minutes to "spawn", where i'm just stuck and see player models standing still and trees moving. Chat still works...
Stuck at Requesting character data from server

Mothman found a fix for it on the other thread here:
