Arma 2 is glitching up

Recommended Posts

So, I wasn't totally sure on what to name this title, so I'll just come out and say it.

 

Arma 2 is...buggy. I can't really explain so I'll attach screenshots.

 

So DayZ mod is working, but it appears that I don't have Chernarus or something loaded and when I verify the files of Arma 2 and Arma 2: OA via DayZCommander, it says that OA was missing 2 files and they will be reaquired. It seems this hasn't been done, as the same message pops up when I verify, say, an hour later. It's stuck on loading and doesn't progress when I verify Arma 2. I've launched each one over and over to see if it works (it doesn't) and I've reinstalled all four Arma 2 games, to no avail.

 

This is sort of annoying as I hadn't done anything that would cause this to stop working.

 

 

I ran out of upload space so I uploaded them on a wiki.

 

Please give suggestions.

DZC is fucked, don't use it.

After you have verified, follow these steps:

 

  1. Go to ARMA 2 Folder
  2. Copy the Contents of "AddOns" (a lot)
  3. Go to ARMA 2: Operation Arrowhead Folder
  4. Past the copied files into the "Common" Folder
  5. If it ask you to override, do it.

Then try again.

DayZCommander is obsolete and shouldn't be used. Just launch the mod with Steam, it works fine.

Edit:

The resident ninja of the mod forums got me, got me good.

Use Imgur. If you do, you can even embed them directly here on the Forum.

Thank you! There seems to not be an AddOns folder in Arma 2. (Steam>SteamApps>Common>Arma 2) I will try to reinstall or something. Thank you for the advice on DayZ Commander, I won't use it anymore.
