Steam Problem

Recommended Posts

I downloaded and installed ARMA 2, ARMA 2: OA and the DayZ files all fine, but when I try to launch the game through Steam it runs as version 1.60.87580 which stops me from joining a lot of servers. When I launch it through the Sixlauncher program it runs as version 1.60.94103. Does anyone know what's stopping it working on Steam?

I downloaded the latest DayZ mod files and I installed the ARMA 2 Beta Patch: ARMA2_OA_Build_94103.

Thanks.

Download and install beta patch from http://www.arma2.com/beta-patch.php (Latest patch is in the green field top of page)

If you are met with a "Password screen" then choose the top version on page (Not in the green field)

Go to the Arma 2: Operation Arrowhead directory (for example C:\Program Files (x86)\Bohemia Interactive\ArmA 2 Operation Arrowhead) and right-click -> edit on .cmd file "_runA2CO_beta.cmd". Search for ":run" near the end of the file. Add ";@dayz" without quotes to "-mod=%_ARMA2PATH%;EXPANSION;ca".

Run "_runA2CO_beta.cmd" and enjoy playing!

You may create a new shortcut to "_runA2CO_beta.cmd"

NOTE: Remember to install DayZ MOD before launching the game!
