CorianWornen 0 Posted July 12, 2012 I've been watching Hatventures play the game and decided to play. I downloaded and installed Arma2, Operation Arrowhead, as well as running the Combined opperations. I Should mention now that I'm trying to do this through steam. Now, I've read the directions on the wiki. I started by trying the 6launcher. I can open it, verify, and launch. The game will begin to launch and I'll get a loading screen that shows tanks but that will close after a short moment and give me the error "Bad serial number given in setup".Now, when it comes to the steam launch, the first step is to use the most up to date beta patch (or so the wiki says). So I download the most up to date version and get a folder that contains the patch labled ARMA@_OA_Build_94700 and when I attempt to run this I get the error "Wrong CD KEY" which pops up twice then does nothing. The wiki states that at this point I'm screwed because I need this to go through correctly before I can continue. Does anyone know what I need to do to get this game working properly? I've been dying to get my hands on a decent zombie survival game and this seems to be what i'm looking for. I've already shelled out the cash, I just need help getting it modded.

CorianWornen 0 Posted July 12, 2012 Additional info: I attempted to look ahead and set up the folders, however something popped up when trying to run the game stating "No entry 'bin\config.bin/CfgInGameUI/MPTable.shadow'." Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
BadCarti 5 Posted July 12, 2012 Before you run DayZ, you need to run ArmA II & OA and then Run Steam as a Administrator.Welcome to the Community! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
CorianWornen 0 Posted July 12, 2012 More Info: I was getting ready to go play another game and another error popped up stating "Error compiling pixel shader PSSpecularAlpha:0" Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
CorianWornen 0 Posted July 12, 2012 I had done that before (running the two of them, hell I ran all three (the combined operations)) but when I tried before nothing happened with OA and CO only opened up a CMD window. Do I have to reinstall OA or something? and I'm running steam as admin right now. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
