Wait For Host

[Riskee 0]

For your information to downgrade from 94945 to 94876:

Browse to:

... your Install Dir (for Steam: \Steam\steamapps\common)' \arma 2 operation arrowhead\Expansion\BattlEye'

Run the BattlEye Uninstaller: 'UnInstallBE.exe'

Then delete the contents of the 'beta' directory:

'\arma 2 operation arrowhead\Expansion\beta'

(don't worry about deleting it as its only the beta exes - if you want you can just rename the beta folder to something else: 'beta_orig' or similar)

I personally also had to delete another (cached?) copy of BEClient.dll located in:

'AppData\Local\ArmA 2 OA\BattlEye\BEClient.dll' (I use Windows 7 so that is under C:\Users\Name\AppData\... )

Basically as I was logging into a game, it would start loading and then Arma2OA would crash, I looked at Windows Event Viewer and the BEClient.dll in the location above was at fault...

Then download the (94876) beta from BI Studios (http://www.arma2.com/beta-patch.php/), direct link: ftp://downloads.bistudio.com/arma2.com/update/beta/ARMA2_OA_Build_94876.zip

And run it, it will re-install BattlEye (the version for 94876) and install the beta exes, the two folders will now be repopulated with various files.

Then use DayZCommander (http://www.dayzcommander.com/) or SixUpdater (http://www.six-updater.net/) to find a server!

For some reason when I click on the installer in the zip it extracts it, then comes up with an error message saying that this is an earlier patch, then nothing happens?

Don't want to start a new tread about this.

Have the same problem on a laptop.

What is the cause of the wait and what should I do beside downgrade (don't se it as an solution just an advoidance of a problem)?

The 94876 patch solved this issue for me. I downloaded the patch and ran the auto installer, tried joining a game using Six Launcher and was successful.
