Wightlion 28 Posted December 3, 2012 I have been playing dayz for a while now and everything has been good,...However,yesterday, while updating Arma II to 99153 via the update section of dayzcommander,..I suddenly get this error message every time I want to enter a serverI am also unable to enter the OA game now too because of the same error message,...What do you think is my next rectifying step ?Thanks in advanceWightlion Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Rage VG 4033 Posted December 3, 2012 Verify the integrity of the game's cache via steam, let me know the results. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Wightlion 28 Posted December 3, 2012 (edited) Hi Rage,I take it you meant the O Arrowhead beta part of the gameIt states"11 files failed to validate and will be reaquired "However I also did this to OA and found similar result but only 1 file failed.

Rage VG 4033 Posted December 3, 2012 Just make sure you do it to ARMA II and ARMA II: Operation Arrowhead, and try connecting again. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Wightlion 28 Posted December 3, 2012 No joy I am afraid, Rage, same thing occuring although the OA Beta file are no longer showing any unvalidated filesNow I just have 1 failed to validate files on both Arma II and Arma II OARowley,I dont think my Managers are going to fix my problems LOLOL Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Rage VG 4033 Posted December 3, 2012 That "Managers" post was an adbot. Disregard it.Okay, so we might have found the root of the issue. This might suck, but I'm going to ask you to reinstall both ARMA II and OA. If there's a broken file, this may fix it. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Wightlion 28 Posted December 4, 2012 Sadly after reinstalling both games etc the effect is very much the same Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Rage VG 4033 Posted December 4, 2012 Then the only conclusion I can come up with is an anti-virus software mistaking the one file as malicious and deleting it every time we create it. 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Wightlion 28 Posted December 4, 2012 Ok I use AVG so the next time I reinstall the games should I turn off my my AV and try that ?Sorry for being a pain rage but Id like to say thanks for your adviceWight Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
