Starting dayz message

Recommended Posts

I've been trying to get Dayz to run but everytime I attempt to launch it I get this box that pops up. It says "Addon 'dayz_anim' requires addon 'CAMisc_fix'". I have no idea how to fix this so I finally resorted to posting it here. I have attempted to run Dayz with both the play with six and Dayzcommander downloads. Also I bought arma2 combined operations (the pack of both arma 2 and AO) off of Amazon.

So, the obligatory did you questions:

Did you install a2, OA, OA beta and Dayz mod? Can you add the cd keys you got off Amazon to Steam? You have to download all four of those first, then run A2 until you get to the main menu then quit. Run OA all the way to the menu then quit. Sometimes, if you don't run them in exactly that way it will give you error messages. Run Dayz Commander, make sure that the directories are correct then click the Yellow button up top install/update. In the menu that pops up, verify that Arma and Dayz are up to date. There is a button to repair or install to the right that will fix any issues that came up during installation. Also, once you have them installed, right click in steam and verify local files. 

 

If you followed those steps exactly you should have all the right files, in all the right places and it should work just fine. Let us know if you were successful!

I can't put the games on steam, the codes are invalid. Also I can't download the mod from steam for some reason. I click install and it brings me back to the main store page but then does nothing. I'm assuming arma has to be installed on steam for it to work, so I'm pretty much screwed. I appreciate the attempt to help, but I might just have to buy the SA.
