DayZ Mod - Crawling Simulator 2012 Dammit rocket what did you break this time? - Games

Omg yes, I just found the fucking motherload. A Ural truck with 2 FAL with NV scope, 3 SAW, FAL, M107, AS50, NVG, and Mk 48. There were also enough things to repair it, and ammo for all.

What the hell, my combined ops wont load USMC units or PMC units besides the SUV. Dayz survivors are invisible as well. I've re-installed PMC and verified the files on all the games and it still refuses to work.

I keep getting stuck at "wait for host" I get the server welcome messages and hear ambient noises but it just sits there.

[QUOTE=ColdWave;36780279]I keep getting stuck at "wait for host" I get the server welcome messages and hear ambient noises but it just sits there.[/QUOTE] Non updated server?

[QUOTE=Chernarus;36780303]Non updated server?[/QUOTE] I've tried quite a few servers that were on the latest beta patch, when connecting to the FP server it says something about not being able to connect to their anti cheat.

Does anybody here know of a program that lets me play sound files in Day Z by emulating my microphone? I want to get a Winchester and run around Chernogorsk at dusk while playing Father Grigori's ramblings from Half-Life 2.

Does anyone know why my game keeps crashing just before the "Recieving" and "Loading" screens? I've seen other people report it in this thread but no-one has posted a solution.

[QUOTE=Chernarus;36767419][B]1.61RC1 installation guide for Combined Operations users[/B] Make sure your game is updated to BIS patch 1.60 final.(If you use Steam, you have it.) Download BIS patch 1.60 RC1, install it. Use the battleye installer for the release candidate. [B]A2+A2:OA(Both) Steam users:[/B] Make sure you updated to the full 1.61 RC patch.. then launch the game as Combined Operations from your steam library. Make sure you have this in the command line of Arrowhead.. [code]"-mod=@Dayz;" -NoSplash[/code] plus whatever else you want to add. [B]Retail users/Non steam arrowhead etc[/B] Make a new shortcut on your desktop, browse to your Arrowhead directory, then choose the ArmA2OA.exe file in your root arrowhead folder then finish that, go to your desktop and find the shortcut then go into its properties and then add this to the end of Target line(keep the quotation marks and leave a space between this and the stuff already in the Target line.): [code] "-mod=C:\Program Files (x86)\PATH_TO_ARMA2\arma 2;Expansion;ca;@DayZ;" -nosplash -world=Chernarus[/code] Replace PATH_TO_ARMA2 with wherever your ArmA2 is installed(Not arrowhead).[/QUOTE] So I don't want to be the ultimate annoyance and keep asking over and over. But I cannot get the game to work this time around. I literally did a fresh install, tried this guide and installed the DayZ files into OA as described on the OP, no success. To be more specific, i bought OA over greeman gaming, and arma 2 on release day IE I have it on disk. but this shouldn't differ compared to a retail copy of both, as I have both directories setup properly as far as I can tell. [img]http://i.imgur.com/kRncp.png[/img] [img]http://i.imgur.com/UPhQC.png[/img] inside my @dayz folder i have addons, and inside of that I have all the dayZ files. [img]http://i.imgur.com/PFKez.png[/img] I updated battlEye, patched my game up to 1.61, and have a shortcut on the desktop which leads to armaOA and has this in the target line "D:\arma OA\CapsuleGames\ARMA II Operation Arrowhead - PC\arma2oa.exe" "-mod=D:\Bohemia Interactive\arma 2;Expansion;ca;@DayZ;" -nosplash -world=Chernarus the first path, obviously leading to my OA exe, and the second path leading to my regular arma 2 installation. when I join servers I get the same thing as always, waiting for host on majority of servers, and on US133 "this mission is dependent on content that is deleted.Chernarus." I don't know all that much about what I'm doing, but it looks to me almost like the OA install can't find the map which is needed from the arma2 install, but I just can't figure out how to make it do so. but maybe Im stupid and completely wrong. Can somebody help me, please?

[QUOTE=Lord of Ears;36779645]it happens to me sometimes, restarting the game usually works[/QUOTE] I got it once and thought it was my video card dying. Glad to know it's just the game.

Okay, now I can't join ANY ArmA servers at all, it crashes on the loading screen. What the hell has happened to my game, re-installing didn't help, following something on the DayZ forums didn't help.

[QUOTE=DeEz;36780643]which beta patch are you using?[/QUOTE] Tried 94700, that crashed. Tried 94876, that crashed. All this shit started happening when I installed RC1, so now i've completely removed anything to do with ArmA 2/ArmA 2 Operation Arrowhead and am now re-downloading and re-installing both games.

[QUOTE=LuckyLuke;36780652]Tried 94700, that crashed. Tried 94876, that crashed.

If it works, you have the same issue I had and I can upload a fix for you.

[QUOTE=LuckyLuke;36780681]Too late now, already completely removed everything to do with ArmA 2 and OA, but thanks for the offer, maybe you should upload it anyway just incase anyone else has the same problem.[/QUOTE] When you reinstall, don't install Battleye and do what I told you to do.

[QUOTE=DeEz;36780687]When you reinstall, don't install Battleye and do what I told you to do.[/QUOTE] Doesn't Steam force install BattleEye when you launch the game?

[QUOTE=LuckyLuke;36780690]Doesn't Steam force install BattleEye when you launch the game?[/QUOTE] You should be able to cancel the setup and run the game just fine.

[QUOTE=DeEz;36780714]You should be able to cancel the setup and run the game just fine.[/QUOTE] I think I could just run the game from the folder steam installs it to, that won't force install BattleEye, seeing as ArmA 2 isn't steam-dependant.

[QUOTE=DeEz;36780759]Also when you're trying to join a vanilla arma 2 server, make sure it actually has BattlEye [B]off[/B] (incase you didn't pick up on my implication).[/QUOTE] Right, well it's going to be around 30 or 40 minutes before both games are finished downloading, could you upload that fix during the wait?

This is why you backup your game files before patching.

[QUOTE=Chernarus;36780973]This is why you backup your game files before patching.[/QUOTE] But it doesn't make sense why it still wouldn't work after I re-installed Operation Arrowhead.

[QUOTE=LuckyLuke;36781030]But it doesn't make sense why it still wouldn't work after I re-installed Operation Arrowhead.[/QUOTE] Because it's not an issue with your game. It's an issue with the BattleEye client, which is not always uninstalled when you uninstall Arma2. Backing up your game wouldn't have helped you.

dayz is so frustrating... I was just about to pull the trigger to kill someone when somebody sniped me

[QUOTE=LuckyLuke;36781030]But it doesn't make sense why it still wouldn't work after I re-installed Operation Arrowhead.[/QUOTE] did you delete the folder?

[QUOTE=DrLuke;36781071]dayz is so frustrating... I was just about to pull the trigger to kill someone when somebody sniped me[/QUOTE] Where? Cause I think I was getting shot at

[QUOTE=Chernarus;36781083]did you delete the folder?[/QUOTE] Yes, but seeing as DeEz said that it's an issue with the stupid cheat engine, it apparently didn't make a difference.

There is no issue if you delete every remnant of Battleye and ArmA from your PC.

[thumb]http://i.cubeupload.com/5OhkvE.png[/thumb] Hit respawn to kill myself. Rejoin, and this comes up. "Odd" I thought. Rejoined again, same error. Repeated this process a few times...

Oh man oh god I feel like such a dick, there was a guy in the school in Elektro that I told was friendly and he backed off and walked away. I went back down to the ladder because I was planning on leaving Elektro and the guy was there pointing a rifle at me, so a fired away with my makarov. I hadn't noticed that he had also put friendly in the chat just before I shot him, so I just shot somebody for no reason. I saw that his name was TheMoose or something like that, so if you're from FP and reading this I'll happily meet up with you somewhere and give you back the loot that I took!
