benneh1 1 Posted April 29, 2012 As far as I'm aware, you have to have the full copy of both games. The free version of Arma2 doesn't work.Happy to be proven wrong though... Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
cm. (DayZ) 28 Posted April 29, 2012 You can't run mods on the free version, so obviously this won't work. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Sonicle 2 Posted April 30, 2012 I have the same problem, according to: http://images.4chan.org/vg/src/1335659941076.jpg it can be done with multiple people confirming it has worked in the thread.I actually have a valid copy of Arma 2 but since my PC is not great I'm opting for the lower textures for an increase in performance.Getting the error message of: cabuildingparts, although I am selecting combined operations when launching the game (also seeing the @days logo on the top right) Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
LtTireBiter 1 Posted April 30, 2012 Once arma2free is installed, make a mod folder "arma2free" under the arma2oa folder and copy all of arma2free files there (can also use sym/hard link). You MUST to use a shortcut or bat file to launch. Use -mod=arma2free;expansion;ca as part of target line to load arma2free data for combined ops mode. Also, see this post for moar info:http://dayzmod.com/forum/showthread.php?tid=449&pid=5578#pid5578Have a nice day! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

fighter139 191 Posted May 2, 2012 You guys should just purchase both games instead of subverting it. :dodgy:BIS != Ubisoft and EA Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
skurcey 11 Posted May 2, 2012 You guys should just purchase both games instead of subverting it. :dodgy:BIS != Ubisoft and EAi m not subverting anything, some told you can play with arma free and so i told my friend to play together.15 euros seems enough Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
fighter139 191 Posted May 2, 2012 This is meant to be played after having bought both games. It is stated many places that DayZ requires Combined Operations to play. EX: Chernarus is not included in OA, it's only in default ArmA II. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
