Pjstorm12 0 Posted July 9, 2012 Just bought Combined Operations off of steam. Downloaded both games, then ran them both... ArmaII ran just fine, but when I start Operation ArrowHead I get an error box that reads: " No entry 'bin\config.bin/CfgInGameUI/MPTable.shadow'.If I click okay on that, about 20 seconds later the game seems to open, but closes quickly and I get the message:" Error compiling pixil shader PSSpecularAlpha:0 " So..... any suggestions?

Pjstorm12 0 Posted July 10, 2012 I just reinstalled operation arrowhead and it still gives me the same errors! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Remix (DayZ) 14 Posted July 10, 2012 Use Six Launcher mate, that will fix these issues. Hope I could help! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Pjstorm12 0 Posted July 10, 2012 Okay, I reupdated using Six Launcher, but when i go to join a server, it opens up a loading screen then shuts it down with the error "Bad Serial Number given in Setup" Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Remix (DayZ) 14 Posted July 10, 2012 The usual fix for this is to Launch Arma 2 once, and then Operation Arrowhead once. This removes any registry issues you are having. If this issue still persists; exit STEAM, then start STEAM via (left click select icon, right click open menu, select "run as administrator")If that fails please restart the PC.Hope I could help!

Remix (DayZ) 14 Posted July 10, 2012 You've ran both Arma 2 and Operative Arrowhead (without using Six Launcher)? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Pjstorm12 0 Posted July 10, 2012 Operation Arrowhead gives me the errors i posted above" No entry 'bin\config.bin/CfgInGameUI/MPTable.shadow'.If I click okay on that, about 20 seconds later the game seems to open, but closes quickly and I get the message:" Error compiling pixil shader PSSpecularAlpha:0 " Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Remix (DayZ) 14 Posted July 10, 2012 Open up steam, go to library, right click on Arma II Operation Arrowhead, click on properties, click on the local files tab, then click on the verify integrity of game cache button and it should fix that file for you.Run Operation Arrowhead in administrator. If no errors occur, open DayZ in Six Launcher. Hope this helps; let me know! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Pjstorm12 0 Posted July 10, 2012 Okay after doing that it says "1 files failed to validate and will be reacquired" Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Remix (DayZ) 14 Posted July 10, 2012 You can't catch a break can you?! xDFrom what I've read on the Beth forum, that 1kb file that always fails to download is of no importance. Other members have stated that many Steam games have this issue.Is this error appearing when using Six Launcher? Ultimately, if you can play the game with no game-breaking bugs, ignore the errors.

Pjstorm12 0 Posted July 10, 2012 When i run Six launcher I keep getting the "Bad serial number given in setup", when trying to join a server. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Remix (DayZ) 14 Posted July 10, 2012 Okay, this should fix it!Add this to your startup line again:"-mod=C:\Program Files (x86)\Steam\SteamApps\Common\ArmA 2;EXPANSION;ca" Restart your PC. This should eliminate the two errors you receive when running OA. Run OA in administrator.Once those errors have gone, run DayZ from Six Launcher. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Goddam how am i still calm right now aha.[/quote']There's currently a loading bug present after 1.7.2. Try disconnecting and reconnecting to another server, one that is updated and has a reasonable player count. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Pjstorm12 0 Posted July 10, 2012 Tried 4 servers so far, I guess this is a pretty big bug. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
