ARMA 2: Operation Arrowhead Launch Issues

Recommended Posts

Hello there everyone,

I just bought ARMA 2 and Operation Arrowhead off of Steam and have just finished downloading them both. I understand that I need to launch both games up to the menu before I think about playing DayZ. I launched ARMA 2 up to the menu with no issue, but when I try and launch Operation ArrowHead, the loading bar loads up and and error comes up saying...

No entry 'bin/config.bin/CfgInGameUI/MPTable.shadow

This error than dissapears after pressing okay and I get another error saying...

Error compiling pixel shader PSSpecularAlpha:0

This isn't even an issue with getting DayZ to work, I can't even launch Operation Arrowhead from Steam to load up to the menu. If anyone has any solution to this, I would love to hear it.

Thank You.

Run Steam as Admin

I have run Steam as an Admin and this did not fix the issue. Perhaps I need to run that game through Steam as an admin? I can't find an option to run the game it'self as an admin though. Edited by Mphlol

To run the game itself as an admin, you go into your C drive, program files, steam etc etc and find the exe in there.

My friend and I have had that same error when we first started. I researched and found out running everything as admin fixes this.

If you want to try this, put this as the launch options for Operation Arrowhead in Steam: "-mod=C:\Program Files (x86)\Steam\SteamApps\Common\ArmA 2;EXPANSION;ca-nosplash"

Please copy the quotes too.

@dcskill I put in the launch options, but I get the error "Wrong code" or something similar to that (don't remember exactly). I checked 10 times and the code I put in is EXACT to yours. Please help! <_<
