lvg 1690 Posted June 17, 2012 Try this go to your main directory and rename "arma2oa.exe" to something like "arma2oa2.exe" then proceed to "arma 2 operation arrowhead\Expansion\beta" Copy the "arma2oa.exe and place it in your main directory where you just renamed the non beta.Then right click ARMA 2 : OA and put this as your launch parameter-beta=Expansion\beta;Expansion\beta\Expansion -nosplash -mod=@DayzThe run as CO and should work Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

lvg 1690 Posted June 17, 2012 No you don't, unless you're using the free version of arma you might but I don't know about that.Can you launch the game normally, without the dayz mod line?Also did you try verifying your game cache as I said in your other thread?

sp4rkr4t 0 Posted June 20, 2012 Never had this problem before today but I've just finished re-installing windows onto my shiny new SSD, then installed Steam and downloaded Arma 2:OA and the dayz files along with beta patch, but whenever I try to run dayz either through the steam launcher with the options you have here or through the beta shortcut in the OA folder I'm getting these errors.Anyone got any other ideas?

Daydrick 0 Posted July 3, 2012 I am running into the same problems that other people in this thread have and I am at a loss to solving them. The chief problem is when I try to launch Combined Operations from steam, I get the DOS window for a second before it goes away and nothing happens. Trying up to 10 times in a row to launch it hasn't done anything. I downloaded the dayz mod files manually and extracted them directly to the Addons folders in @dayz. I've tried to run steam as administrator, I've set the launch options to "-beta=Expansion\beta;Expansion\beta\Expansion -nosplash -mod=@Dayz", and I've installed the most recent beta patch and done the ArmA2OA.exe switch trick mentioned earlier in the thread. I've also done the verify integrity of game cache thing, and nothing has worked yet. When I try to run the game as just Arma 2 OA, I encounter all of the same problems as mentioned in the first post. I don't know what else to do, and would greatly appreciate any help from anyone. Thanks! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
