Tegla (DayZ) 112 Posted May 21, 2012 Okay, first i would like to say hi to everyone, been reading posts for a long while but just registered.Second, i dont't quite get the instalation. I read both the forum and dayz wiki posts and the thing that botheres me is the install tool (http://dayzmod.com/forum/showthread.php?tid=2001)So, i have Arma 2: Free and a legit copy of Arma 2: OA on steam. How exactly do i install the mod? Do i just run the install tool and that's it, or do i follow the steps like download the files, make @Dayz, Addons folders, -mod=@dayz -nosplash etc...Jut a quick response would be appreciated :) Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Ketsugo (DayZ) 1 Posted May 21, 2012 I haven't tried the install tool so I'm not particularly sure down that avenue, but what I've done (Your mileage may vary, I own ArmA2 and OA on Steam) is copy the entire AddOns folder from the ArmA2 folder and paste it into a folder I made in the OA folder called @arma2.Then download all the latest DayZ archives and put the contents of those into a folder called @DayZ, so the folder hierarchy should be OA\@DayZ\Addons\[.pbos here] and OA\@arma2\Addons\[everything here].Then in Steam launch options for Operation Arrowhead, -mod=@dayz;@arma2; and whatever else to your liking.

fullmetalmonkey 0 Posted May 21, 2012 I'm not using the free version of ARMA 2. I've been playing ARMA for years. :)Your also launching it as Combined Operations, correct? As i sometimes launch it as just Operation Arrowhead and it won't work.Also, try installing the mod with the update from www.worrom.com its what i used.
