Bumble - RMG MEDIC! 14 Posted July 25, 2012 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. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

CyanideSnyper 0 Posted July 25, 2012 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 ArrowheadLaunch both games again like you did when you first installed to the main menu screen then you can exitthen right click OA again and launch combined operations to relink the gamesthen after your done with all that (doesn't take long)you should be able to launch dayz again and join servers.Worked for meOh thank you SOOOOO much! Worked for me! Been searching for a fix for about half an hour now :P Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

poisonman 28 Posted July 25, 2012 make sure the game isn't running when you do those steps Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
osirish 165 Posted July 25, 2012 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. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

poisonman 28 Posted July 26, 2012 (edited) 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 Edited July 26, 2012 by poisonman Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
