ArmA 2 REINFORCEMENTS - need help

[[email protected] 0]

Hi

I've been trying to install DayZ for 2 days now.

I keep crashing as soon as I load into a server.

The game crashes and "ArmA 2 REINFORCEMENTS has stopped working" message appears.

I have the free version of ArmA 2.

Operation Arrowhead

Extracted everything according to the youtube video posted on this forum.

I also tried using Six Updater to fix another problem i had.

I also copied the files from arma2free/addons to armaOA/common.

Nothing I am trying is working, can someone please help?

Starting to lose my mind.

Here i am, after hours of looking forums and fiddling with files.

I fixed everything and managed to play the game 2 minutes before leaving home this morning. (fun fact : i was killed by a bandit right as i spawned)

For others that may have the same problem :

My last problem was caused by my free version of ArmA 2.

The free version from steam does not normaly support mods.

I had to copy the ArmA 2 Free folder into Operation Arrowhead folder.

I renamed that folder arma2free.

Then i had to modify the launch option so that when i start OP, it launches arma 2 free as a mod as well.

like this : -mod=@dayz -nosplash -noautoupdate -mod=arma2free;expansion;ca
