Recommended Posts

Ok,so i just downloaded Arma 2 off of steam but not Arma 2 operation arrowhead because I have arma 2 OA on disk.When i try to use dayz commander to install and run dayz it tells me to get Arma_BAF and delete all the files from Arma 2 OA or get a key? does this mean i have to rebuy arma OA on steam?

Hello,

Today i bought "ARMA 2 Black Edition" then i saw i need "ARMA 2 Operation Arrowhead" so i bought it too.

... and for the fun of it ... somewhere i read it is good to do so ... Reinforcements incl. BAF&PMC (all on DVD)

I Installed ARMA2 Black Edition and Patched it with the Patch on the DVD.

Then I tryed to Install OA ... the install Programm said that i installed OA already !?!

So i tryed to overinstall it ... the Programm does not accept my KeyCode ... arrgh ...

(I now the Zero or Letter " O " thing ... )

So I downloaded the DayZ Commander and the Play withSIX thing ... damm it.

After some min. i found : @Client-1.7.6.1-Full.rar ... (109MB) so i Downloaded it ... and the Changelog.

Can somone plz. tell me whats wrong in this world to easy install a Game (Mod) ?

Where put i the File's out of the @Client-1.7.6.1-Full.rar File ? ( C:\Program Files (x86)\Bohemia Interactive\ArmA 2\AddOns )

System : Windows 7 Home Premium 64-bit | NVIDIA GeForce GTX 260 | QuadCore i5 CPU 750 @ 2.67GHz

Hey guys download Play with six, http://play.withsix.com/

make sure you point after install to the right directories ....

click on arma 2 combined operations picture (top left)

then in middle hit settings ...

on the right it will ask you to point to

a) arma2 folder

B) arma2 operation arrowhead

c) mod folder (same as arma2 operation arrow head)

update from arma 2 -> dayz and you should be fine to play

... i Updated the BattleEye up to V1.191 then i tryed PlaywithSix

· Arma 2 Combined Operations V1.62.102628 with the DayZDevTeam Mod V1.7.61

· Arma 2 OA V1.62.102628 with the Advanced Combat Enviroment ACE-Team V1.14rc1

my first error :

'CA_CommunityConfigurationProject_E' requires 'CA_BAF'

then something like :

/bin/config.bin\CfgVehicles\Mentis.turnCoef

or funny things like :

Arma2\expansion\dta\core.pbo

Arma2\expansion\addons\core.pbo

Arma2\expansion\addons\air_e.pbo

Arma2\expansion\addons\animals_e.pbo

Arma2\expansion\addons\anims_e.pbo

Arma2\expansion\addons\ca_e.pbo

Arma2\expansion\addons\characters_e.pbo

... are too much or missing ...lol... whatever

and not exaptable key signature or so ... the @DayZ Mod is in this Folder :

C:\Program Files (x86)\Bohemia Interactive\ArmA 2 Operation Arrowhead\@Dayz\Addons

EDIT : most of the missing Files are in Patch : 1.60 ... my fault ...

@ comc99 :

Same here, I uninstalled everything and delete the rest manualy, then I only installed Arma2OA from DVD.

Then i tryed the PlaywithSIX thing with the DayZDevTeam Mod V1.7.61 and this Mod goes to : C:\Users\...\Documents\ArmA 2

I also added -mod=@dayz -nosplash to the arma2OA.exe ... I get less errors ...

When I tryed to join a server a nice sign pops up : Conection error.

Firewall is ok and checked, Avira on or off incl. gamemode checked but no chance to join.

Then I tryed to open up a Server by my self ... arrrgh ... put this file here , download that ... etc.

... and I thought to bring up a Server for Unreal Tournament was hard. :)

There is rearly not a easy way for checking Files ? ... a Log File to locate them maybe ?

Question about PlaywithSIX and the Version Numbers here : http://www.arma2.com/beta-patch.php

Do i have to install all of them in the right order or only the newest one ?

Q ... in a different way : When I have ARMA2_OA_Build_103419 installed can I play on a Server with :

V1.62.102936 , V1.62.102678 , V1.62.102591 , V1.62.102285 ... and so on ?

Patchen ... :> http://www.arma2.com/supply/game-updates ...
