Can't play in most servers. Should I delete this?

Recommended Posts

I try to connect to most public servers but an error pops up saying I dont have keys for these.

addons\bink_us_acu_c.pbo and addons\video2_pmc.pbo.

Or itll say ill need a key just for one of these. I have no idea what these are. I need some light shed on this. Not every public server said this though.

i think, may be stand to be corrected but .bink is infact a video file, iv seen them used in game intro's ect would explain the video at the end of the second error, the pmc bit is the private military contractors dlc, which you seem not to have, if you bought it, there may be an uninstall, so try that then reinstall as worst case if not, im sure i or someone else can send you the missing files as clearly they'll be in the arma directory and not to hard to find.

Kind Regards Jeza

I have the files. I checked my file location. I can join the 1para server but others have this error. It says something like oit doesnt accept this or I dont have the keys. Would it be ok for me just to remove it and after multiplayer I can put it back in?

Wait nevermind I dont think I have the files because I got confused with some files that looked similar. Ill just reinstall PMC.

The key I'm pretty sure is referring to the "Server key" which means that the server doesn't accept your addon, because it's not "keyed" on the server.

bink_us_acu_c.pbo is a file from a mod. If a server does not allow this mod on him, you cant join (the icons in the multiplayer browser should display this, green, yellow, red). Most servers will propably dont allow this mod/file. Delete it or play only on server that allow it (find out first which mod it is then, then find out which servers allow it).
