bastian3200@gmail.com 0 Posted July 23, 2012 Hello, just bought the combined operations, first had some troubles with getting in arrowhead operations but sorted it out by running the program as admin... after that got sorted, i downloaded the dayz mod files and extracted them to the right file and then done the stufff with launch options.. Well i thought it went fine and i logged in and joined a server and spawn as bird, then i continuely try to find a server without spawning as a bird and i just dont seem to find any! Then i go google spawn as bird and people say its because i got a fake copy of the game? Can anyone help me or does anyone have the same annoying issue??

Mr. Pink 31 Posted July 23, 2012 Never had that issue, no. Where did you buy the game from? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
thisisbleep 32 Posted July 23, 2012 If you did purchase the game I suggest that you re-install both Arma II and Operation Arrowhead.If you did not yet purchase the game you should buy it. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Bansheebandit 0 Posted July 23, 2012 This is a serious glitch. So far the only known solution ive heard of is to reinstall the mod. If that dosent work... Try a full arma2 reinstall. Hopefully its not a cd key bug. Goodluck Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I will try and uninstallA few others have mentioned this issue, you probably made a mistake during the modifications to get DayZ to work.

species5021 28 Posted July 23, 2012 Use Sixlauncher or Dayzcommander to do the installation and beta patches for you. So many stuff that can still go wrong doing it manually. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

OrLoK 16185 Posted July 23, 2012 Hello thereDegrade (not known as FADE anymore) usually turns you into a bird after some time playing as well as other crippling issues.I would contact the Devs on the Bohemia Forums rather than the chaps here.Can you join non dayz MP games with no issue?Try ALL the alternatives before raising the issue.RgdsLoK Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
s.newsham@gmail.com 2 Posted July 23, 2012 Have you tried re-spawning? (esc->respawn).On the video games show I watched which introduced me to DayZ one of the presenters once spawned in as a bird, she was able to fly around, looked fun! I'd doubt they'd use pirate copies to review games being as it's a TV company. I've also heard rumors that hackers can spawn people as birds, but rumors are rumors.I'm willing to bet it's just a bug and re-spawning will sort it.I'm off to start drawing up some UML diagrams for Bird Sim 2013.

noobfun 87 Posted July 23, 2012 I've also heard rumors that hackers can spawn people as birds, but rumors are rumors. usually they go with cows but birds should be doable easily enough Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
