Last night I ended up uninstalling Arma2 from my HDD so that I could put it on my SSD. Before doing so, I copied all of my mods (ace, acre, cba, etc.) to my desktop along with the @DayZ folder. I installed my retail version Combined Operations to my SSD.I immediately copied my @DayZ folder to my K:\Bohemia Interactive\ (For some reason there wasn't an ArmA 2 folder after Bohemia Interactive anymore?). I ran DayZCommander made sure my file path was K:\Bohemia Interactive for Arma2 and OA Directory, and K:\Bohemia Interactive\@DayZ for my DayZ directory. When I went to launch the game it had an error message pop up I've never seen before "Addon 'dayz_anim' requires addon 'CA_PMC'." I click OK and then when the game tries to load in it says I have No Entry 'bin\config.bin/CfgVehicles/Soldier-crew-PMC.scope and sometimes it says something along the lines of No Entry 'Malevoice01'. I've had this installed on my HDD before, so I'm trying to get this back to normal. I've looked online for Installation guides and everyone has the Steam Version. The only other thing I can think of is updating my OA to 1.60 and then 1.62, but 1.60 is an hour long download and updating Arma2 to 1.11? I'd rather not download it if I don't have to.

Now it's saying it can't find my Arma2: Operation Arrowhead installation, but it's in the same damn folder as regular Arma2.... Edit: Just tried to update arma2_update111 it also said it couldn't find my Arma2 Installation, what in the fuck is going on. Does this have something to do with my directory being just K:\Bohemia Interactive and not K:\Bohemia Interactive\ArmA 2 ? When it was on my D: it was D:\program files\bohemia interactive\ arma 2 and OA was INSIDE of the ArmA 2 folder??

Sadly I have to redownload a 704MB 1.60 version lol. I figured I would reinstall everything to start fresh on a new drive lol. Plus I didn't want those huge mods taking up storage on my SSD just yet =D

Are you sure there isn't an issue with my Arma OA being under 1.62 and my Arma2 being Under 1.11? Maybe that's why the file is missing?

I was the one to find the Ural and I wasn't banned because I had ran west after I Brought the Ural back to our camp. From the past few months I've played this game, I've learned that it's EXTREMELY easy to find all these little basecamps and vehicle hoarding if I run to the north eastern part of the map and work west. I was the one to spot the Ural while I was on top of a mountain on y-axis 003 or so. I mean hell, it's BRIGHT BLUE and SCREAMS "Steal me!" When sitting in a forest full of nothing but green. You are absolutely ignorant to ban someone for taking your vehicles. And #2, the white pickup we had, I followed that all the way back to a camp at 146,016 or so. I'm sorry that you have pitiful observations and awareness, but quit being a sore loser when you hide your vehicles in the most COMMON area to hide bases, especially when someone follows you all the way back to your camp.

Since my Arma2 folder in program files is 24GB, I was wondering if there was a way I could copy the arma2 folder without my ACE Mods and all that other unnecessary mods to my SSD and allow dayzcommander to run it from that location. What would be the best way to go about this to allow for updated to be installed directly to the SSD arma2 folder and so that it doesn't try to read old files from the HDD.

Well I'm trying to get the benefits of having the game load quicker on an SSD. So I'm not sure if just having the dayz folder separate will do that. If so, that'd be perfect.
