Multiple Errors- Dayz, Missing Maps, Remove add on Files.

[barrows 0]

So lets start off from the beginning.

Last year, I bought Arma 2 on Amazon.

On Friday, I bought Arma 2 Operation Arrowhead.

I installed DayZ from steam.

I installed DayZcommander.

Then installed Origins and Breaking Point.

Files were missing, saying I needed to remove "x" addon. (A10,ah64d, air1, air2, air 3, etc...) Talked to my friends, and then looked up how to fix, they didn't work. ... I got errors like "Dayz Anim requires CA_counterattack, and one other like _Fix"

Then I would hit okay, and it would go into the menus. It would then say you can't enter because of the files removed, keys need to approved by server.

Got into nothing... Friend told me to uninstall everything and delete all the registry keys, and completely wipe anything and everything from my computer relating to Arma, which I did. Loaded it up again today, and same problem as before... Really pissed off, And like before i started downloading the files for DayZ i used to be able to play OA armor on Arma 2 maps like cherno and Utes, but now its only letting me use Takistan. Only thing I personally did to files was to copy Addon Files from Arma 2 to OA, but they are all exactly the same and it didn't fix the "dayz-Anim req CA_CounterAttack"

Install dayz on dayzcommander, not steam.

The second time around after I uninstalled everything I installed DayZ thru commander. Stil didnt work.

oh dear god, ok its simple, open you steam and go to properties on all the arma games you have in steam. right click them and select properties then select the local file tab, after that click verify game cache. once you have done that, close steam then re open, open and play all arma 2 game at-least once through steam, so open arma 2 and run it all the way to the start up screen then log out, do the same to the other games related to arma, to ensure first time setup and been completed and all files are currently accounted for. throughout these steps there are gonna need to permissions and exspections to be set inorder to run any arma 2 game, make sure you are present to click these options, for this is the reason wny you cannot play. after this is all done with make sure you are running the same verison the server is running on if you are trying to join, if they are not matched, then it wont work, so make sure you are updated to the current patch's, then you should be good to go
