Stuck on Recieving data.

[sanktas 6]

Hello, so my friend is trying to connect, he did everything the way i did it, and it works perfectly for me.

He however get's stuck in the lobby after he presses "OK" in the bottomright corner. It just says "recieving data". After a few seconds he gets kicked out of the server.

I read some other threads that has the same problem, and the solution was to reinstall battleye? He did it, twice. Nothing happend. He even uninstalled both Arma 2 and Arma 2 operation arrowhead, then installed them again, but to no avail. The problem is still there.

We tried exiting steam, running it as moderator and try to connect again, didn't work.

He has created the correct maps in his steamfolder that is required, he has the same map as i have. I told him what to create and what to type.

He is playing it from steam.

He edited the launch options so that it would work on steam, he has the same launch options that i have. Why does it not work for him, but for me?

Okay - the getting kicked thing means his files are not setup properly.

Verify the mod files are in:

@dayz/addons/*.pbo and *.bisign

Many people forget the "addons" folder or to unpack the files.

As i said, his files are exactly as mine, i double checked it by checking his screen using skype.

It's in

Steamapps/common/arma 2 operation arrowhead/@dayz/Addons

Inside of the addons folder is where he extracted all the files.

He has it exactly as i have.

He tried following all of theese tips.

He restarted the computer, and then ran steam as admin and it worked.

I have the same issue, i have tried everything suggested but it still gets stuck on receiving data. Then after a while it moves me back to the server list page. Is there something im missing?
