=DiG= Zgraphz 84 Posted May 9, 2013 Troubleshooting Arma2/Dayz for Steam user'sSteam has a lot of different functions. One of the best is the File System Checklist. This checklist allows users to recover basic data that may have became corrupted/deleted. Arma 2 and Steam has a unique way of being high maintenance, every so often, Steam will need you to play the games from it's library for the "First Time Setup" phase, even though, you may have done this before, you gotta do it again, it gets important updates for registry keys, Battle eye and important updates from steams servers.To fix problem's such as: Missing or invalid cd-key, Missing or deleted content and many more different issues.Open Steam with administrator rights.Right click Arma 2, Select properties, Go to Local File tab, Select Verify Game Cache.(Do this to all Arma 2 related games in your library)The order in which the games should be install/updated, should be by the date the game was released: Arma2/Arma2OA/Arma2PrivateMilitaryCompany/AArma2BritishArmedForces.Once you have done those steps to all the arma games/dlcs, you got to close Steam out completely.Reopen steam, select arma 2 and click play, wait till you get to the main menu, then log out.(Do this to all Arma 2 related games in your library).Once this is completed, your arma files will not only be updated but scanned and all are accounted for. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

=DiG= Zgraphz 84 Posted May 10, 2013 It's also suggested to watch a video guide, Ramdisk video tutorial usually give the best installation guides, they are more logical and tend to explain a bit more about the game and gives you more information about what you are trying to do. so u tend to fix problems yourself instead of asking for help all the time. Good luck! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
