elf cakes 559 Posted June 2, 2013 windowsvistaWELL THERES YOUR PROBLEM.jokes aside, have you tried a reinstall? have you actually manually started arma 2, and arma 2: operation arrowhead? you need to run them first before you can do anything in game. what else could 'are you sure you ran the game manully at least once? actually mean? just open arma 2 and operation arrowhead, close them and off you go :P Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
boneboys 7988 Posted June 2, 2013 You have to start the game, it's as simple as that, DC is for starting with DayZ, nothing else.As a new player you should at least go through the Guides.A little old but the basics remain the same and have not changed.http://dayzmod.com/f...ors/#entry18541 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
beastoverlord 574 Posted June 2, 2013 Open Arma II and Arma II OA WITHOUT DayZ. Then exit and then you can play DayZ. It's just because you're trying to open the mod without ever opening the game. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

KateUpton 6 Posted June 2, 2013 nvm mind i found out how to open arma 2 and the rest and dayZ works now,but im verry verry laggeyTo fix the lag issue, you might want to change some of your video settings. Just put everything on low or very low settings.If that doesn't work, you're going to need to upgrade your computer. - FYI - If you have a laptop you will not be able to upgrade.
