ryguy 10 Posted July 9, 2011 So I have combined ops. My friend has A2:free. We see completely different servers and when I host he can't see mine. We can't play on the same public ones because we can't see the same ones. Aren't these things supposed to be backwards compatible? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
.kju 3245 Posted July 9, 2011 You need to launch arma2.exe (patched to 1.10). Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Nicholas 5 Posted July 9, 2011 You guys just need to be patched to the same version 1.10 to play together. It doesn't have to be a "free" server, as all ArmA 2 servers can be played on by free players. Someone correct me if I'm wrong. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
mlenser 10 Posted July 10, 2011 It doesn't have to be a "free" server, as all ArmA 2 servers can be played on by free players.I think the server needs to be patched to 1.10 AND not be running any addon mods for Arma 2 Free players to be able to join?

metalcraze 290 Posted July 10, 2011 Server should not run any mods that are required to be there on the client's side. But it's ok to run stuff like Zeus AI as it affects AI only on server's side, thus not requiring anything from clients. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
