Manually download and install the mods, put them in your arma2oa folder under "/@dayz/addons" and then add -mod=@dayz in your combined ops launch options

i don't have launch options because i'm not using steam and i've done the "-mod=@dayz" thing but that never changed anything

Hey bud, just create a shortcut of operation arrowhead, go to that right click shortcut, click properties, go to the end of the target and put in the mod line.

Enjoy.

I can't help you if you can't even figure that out... I deleted the .bat part because it seems to be confusing you more. Good luck.
