Azba 0 Posted June 17, 2012 I don't think DayZ works with the free version of ArmA II.Incorrect. Day Z can run with Arma II Free. Just copy the "addons" folder from Arma II Free into Operation Arrowhead's folder. Run OA as Combined Ops.OT: There could be any number of reasons why the updater isn't working for you. Screenshots of the problem would be helpful.Anyway, you could always do a manual installation, which would likely be easier than fixing the problem with the updater.

Just make sure when you're copying the files from Arma II Free into OA, don't overwrite anything, merge. I made that mistake and even though the game worked fine, I had a lot of UI issues and color differences. I'm now reinstalling to fix that. =[ Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
