Can't Access normal ArmA II: CO

Recommended Posts

Hi there Day Z fans.

I love DayZ, But I also love the normal Vanilla ArmA 2 game.

the Problem i've been having since installing Day Z and Six Updater/Launcher is that I can't Access the normal single player section of the game no matter what.

I can't access the editor or any singleplayer missions. Nor will it let me load my own editor missions in multiplayer.

This is the case with every launcher avaliable including Steam, ArmA II launcher and Six Launcher.

The Problem started after reinstalling DayZ because there was a problem where DayZ files weren't being loaded up by the game. So, I reinstalled the mod, Updated it through Six Updater, And now i get A DayZ loading screen whenever something loads in the game, but I can't access single player content.

Can someone please give me some help? I've had to do all sorts of things to fix the last problem I had including reinstalling the game and now i'm having a completely new problem!

A few months ago it all worked together fine! I could play ArmA 2 and then switch to DayZ with Ease.

Any Ideas?

Thanks

Unload the mod Dayz

And how to do it? I tried the ingame mod management,but all options were grayed out.

Also deleting DayZ folder did not help either, I also can not play Arma2 CO at all, only mods.

edit I found this, but not sure it helps at all

Go to your arma 2 oa folder > open Expansion > open BattlEye and run the uninstall.exe

Go to your arma 2 folder > open BattlEye and run the uninstall.exe (if it isn't there, don't worry about it)

Run the game with (the beta should still be installed - doesn't matter what one)

Try to join a server - you should get stuck at either Loading or Wait for Host - this is normal

Close the game and go back into your arma 2 oa folder > Expansion and delete the beta.

Download and install beta patch 94700

It will ask you to install BattleEye, do so.

Go into your arma 2 folder > go into BEsetup and run the .exe

Go back into your arma 2 oa folder > Expansion> beta and copy the BattleEye folder (DO NOT CUT OR DELETE IT - YOU ARE MAKING TWO COPY'S OF IT).

Paste the BattleEye folder in the main arma 2 oa directory.

Open arma 2 oa and join a NORMAL arma game.

Found also this,but did not work for me:

delete your beta version

install 94876 beta version o

download http://www.battleye.com/download.html

v1.11 / v1.60 / v1.61.94876 BE Client for Windows (32-bit) - MD5: 6c3fc9824f0f7a548fcbac0171b14c65

replace it with old file in C:\Users\%USERNAME%\AppData\Local\ArmA 2 OA\BattlEye\

Another problem is that For Some reason I have some editor missions that have DayZ content in them. No idea why, But I need DayZ to Work With the game if I want to run these editor missions.

is there any way it'll still all work?

I did this recently.

Rename the @dayz folder to something else, and remove -mod=@dayz from launch options, if steam.

I practiced some helicopter piloting... You know, just in case.... Couh... And then exited and put it all back. Worked just fine.

Lol mate pretty easy...and it somehow worked.

What I dont get is that previously even when I have moved dayz folder to the desktop and messed up steam launcher to not include dayz reference, it did not work.

Now I have just renamed dayz folder and started the game with "_runA2CO_beta" and works like a charm (played 5 mins of campain so far).

I wonder if this sorts out my problem where Arma2OA stopped working when joining multiplayer game though....

Glad this works and all. Thanks very much! However now I have a new problem. The Editor missions I have won't show up. The files for the missions exist and are in the correct game folder but they just don't show up and I can't load them.

Look here is the easiest way just open up your Arma 2 OA and go to your expansions and disable Dayz@ and that should do the trick
