Kicked from all servers

Recommended Posts

in the steam game properties, i keep hitting 'validate' on the same game (for either in the steam library) and it keeps coming up with 1 or 2 corrupted files, every time. multiple times in a row for the same game. if steam can't even get the validation process right, then WTF.

Ok I found a fix for this.

What I did:

Go into your steam library, right click Arma 2 go to properties, Local Files, Verify Integrity, wait till it completes.

Do the same thing for Operation Arrowhead

Launch both games again like you did when you first installed to the main menu screen then you can exit

then right click OA again and launch combined operations to relink the games

then after your done with all that (doesn't take long)

you should be able to launch dayz again and join servers.

Worked for me

Oh thank you SOOOOO much! Worked for me! Been searching for a fix for about half an hour now :P

The two files that are validated are probably the Battleye files. They are older Battleye files in the steam client, and so you may have problems connecting until Battleye self-updates or you manually update.

Crap well at least i know what the problem is and I'm not banned or anything. I've heard of stories about people getting banned by using FRAPS and i thought that happened to me but no just another steam fuck up...

you need to make sure arma / dayz is not running when you go through these steps, you also want to make sure your running Steam in admin mode if your using Vista or Windows 7
