spydereleven 10 Posted December 30, 2010 (edited) I have a friend who bought Arma2: OA, but is unable to play on servers with me. He owns Arma2 and Arma2: OA. He cannot join any multiplayer servers. The particular server I wanted to show him was the =7Cav= one. Does simply owning Arma2 and Arma2: OA mean he has Arma2: CF? Edit: I meant to say CO (Combined Operations), not CF Edited December 30, 2010 by spydereleven Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
demonized 20 Posted December 30, 2010 Arma2 + Arma2 OA = Arma2 CO (Combined Operations) Anyway, if he have both, he must have OA installed in same folder as A2, Also he must have had installed A2 first, then run game once then install OA in same folder as A2 for it to work, also need to apply latest patch or whatever version patch your server of choise has. Installing OA first then installing A2 after is not working afaik. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Teknetinium 10 Posted December 30, 2010 (edited) Sorry for my frustration this is so confusing. I have Arma2 CD, Arma2:AO CD, BAF spocket, PMC spocket. it seems I got everything I need. But I have same problem as spydereleven. I cant join any CTI multiplayer missions. You cannot play/edit this mission; CAWheeled2BTR90 warfear2_Vehicals . I have three questions. 1. I would be grateful if someone explained how to install the hole package step by step, including patches. 2. After installing Arma2+Arma2:OA in same folder, I did not receive any message that its combined. Dose the patching combined them two? 3. What version of the game is played by minority? Ãll this patches must divide players somewhat, Sorry for my frustration in my first post, S!! all :( Edited December 30, 2010 by Teknetinium Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Mr. Charles 22 Posted December 30, 2010 Just install ArmA2 first and choose your install path. Then install OA but do not choose its install path. It will automatically install in the right directory. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Teknetinium 10 Posted December 30, 2010 (edited) Combined Operations install guide. 1. Install Arma2. 2. Install Arma2:AO ( in same folder as Arma2. arma2.exe and arma2OA.exe should be in same folder after the installation.) 3. Install ARMA2OA_Patch_1.57 (If im not wrong that patch should include BAF,PMC.) Solved. Thank you for the help.
