Many thanks for the replies. I shall recreate the profile and check if my character is missing. I thank you guys for fully reading my post and realizing I never stated I logged into the character, so as to be safe in the event that it was reversible. I should have made that distinction.

The player profile list when you back out to the game menu lists out your "characters". The first is naturally the default, I had created a 2nd profile to make a different name than the default. This profile is not there. MIA = Missing in action. I'll take your suggestion into consideration ponc, but I'm going to need quite a few more people to tell me that before I delete such vital files.

Does anybody know how to recover a character/player profile like this?

Anybody know how to fix this?

you are in debug island. Check the thread.

The computer is a "workstation", basically like a server. The graphics card in it is bad. They say it's a "gaming graphics card", but it's junk.

I have not checked myself. There is a lan option in the bottom left of the game. I suppose it's more of an issue with each server rather than the game itself.

You can view the game controls in game.

Turn the headbob down to 1 above 0. I play 3rd person because I want to. If a server turns it off, it removes my choice. I don't play where I don't have a choice.

The letter K while you are in person mode Also, you can view your controls in game

you want combined operations, no you don't need steam, there is really no benefit.

Mouse, keyboard, gamepad, joystick, etc.

Posted this before in the New player discussion, figured this would be more appropriate. I'll leave them both up for now. Is there any way to recover my character? I have 2 drives, a SSD with my OS, and a HDD with my Steam folder and arma 2/dayz folders. After reinstalling windows and logging back in, my character is MIA. I tried verifying my ARMA 2 file in steam and it does nothing. I'm told that the characters are bound to your key. Why is it then that I don't have my character? How do I get it back?
