How to preserve my character before I reinstall ARMA

Recommended Posts

Hey Guys,

I'm planning to reinstall ARMA/Arrowhead overnight to see if that fixes my occasional frame stutter issue which only appeared after I reinstalled windows. However do I need to preserve any files in order to prevent me from losing my character?

Also my humanity is -17000 after killing 4 people is this a bug or does the effect just stack?

Cheers!

Goose

I have the same question. What happens with my character when I reinstall arma?

Also, is there anyway how to transfer my character to another computer with arma on it but with different serial keys used?

I suppose my character is tied to my Battleye GUID, but I dont know how is this GUID generated. It's based on my arma serial key? So when I reinstall arma I will still be able to login with my character but I wouldn't be able to transfer my character to another arma with different serial key?

Thanks for any response.

Your character is saved on the central server... Your player ID is unique to your Arma Key, so for every version of arma you have bought, you get a new player. You don't have to do anything to preserve your character.
