My friend tries installing the OA Beta patch but it keeps saying "Wrong CD Key"
How to install?
So do people get shot randomly more or less often on the facepunch server when compared to other servers or is it pretty much the same?
It told me that, then proceed to install perfectly.

It's pretty much on par with other servers.

It should still work, as loophole said. If that doesn't work, make sure he's run both Arma2 and Arma2 OA as administrator at least once.
hm
we were driving around near the airfield, met a SUV with a machine gun, escaped him
15 minutes later the server restarts, and i spawn in Gorka?
where did my car go? :v:
Don't know what the fuck to do when I start.
I join a server and just sprint and sprint for a long time, I don't find any zombies or a human player, I found 1 cow in this whole experience.

What the hell is the key that allows you too loot bodies?
Looking through the controls is giving me a headache.

Where does the player spawn?
In one of the coastal towns.
[QUOTE=Cam00;36655547]So I just installed this, and have no idea what I'm doing. Can't see shit in the server, mouse movement is laggy and I just got mobbed. Is there a guide or something that I can read?[/QUOTE]
Don't play with standard AA, use FXAA (you must enable it in an ini file, it isn't in the options).
AA drains a huge amount of performance and causes a massive amount of mouse lag, especially for nvidia users in the ArmA2 engine for whatever reason.
Like, I can run OA at max settings perfect (and have mouse smoothing disabled, etc). But the moment I have AA on, I lose a good chunk of FPS, and I get horrible mouse lag. My BF who plays though, with his lower-end ATI card, he can run the game perfectly fine with AA enabled.
[QUOTE=Frewb;36656719]Where does the player spawn?[/QUOTE]
There are a dozen or so spawnpoints spread out along the coast. It will briefly tell you where you spawned if you look in the bottom right corner of your screen.
well, my vehicle inveotry got wiped for the fifth time in four days. I'm done playing until it's fixed.

I suppose learning how to play like us car-less newbs is out of the question
That's an awesome hacker

Documents/ArmA 2/ArmA2OA.cfg actually.

How exactly do I enable FXAA? I run 60 fps but the mouse lag is so annoying.

Enable the PPAA option with either a 1 or 2. Although the mouse lag might just be because of the smoothing, and that's an ingame slider option.

To clear this up, I keep FXAA at 0 and only change PPAA?
Yeah. The FXAA setting is deprecated and doesn't do anything. PPAA is a unified setting for both FXAA and MLAA and enables one or the other based on the number you give it.

Thanks for the help, mouse movement feels much better.

Out of topic, this game is confusing and extremely hard for a solo beginner like me. I finally make my way into a city and since I have no way to defend myself besides my fist I have no chance against these zombies. I try crawling or crouching around but I end up getting caught.
Why is it when I try to join mumble I need a password?

hold shift and watch your sound and sight indicators on the right side
and find an axe for a starting weapon
Some guy on a roof in Cherno disconnected as I popped 3 DMR rounds into his head, had an AKM and a range finder.
it's gonna be so much fun when rocket fixes the disconnect exploit
[QUOTE=DeEz;36657435]it's gonna be so much fun when rocket fixes the disconnect exploit[/QUOTE]
I think its the same person who killed me before, who also disconnected as soon as I came back with a lee enfield and an m1911 just to end his sorry ass.
[editline]6th July 2012[/editline]
He had the same weapon and gear and everything.

He should make it so your character casually starts sitting down as you disconnect, it would be hilarious when the guy your shooting disconnects and he's just casually sitting down then gets popped.

WoW actually has a pretty solid solution for this, you pretty much have to sit down for 10 sec until you can log out, it could work on DayZ as well
