mbamg 1 Posted June 17, 2012 (edited) Bought and DL'd directly from BIStudios (no Steam), no mods Problem seems to be ArmA 2 only, not OA expansion Cannot confirm whether ArmA 2 can connect at v1.10 (non-patched version), as no compatible servers are found. Tried running as administrator - did not work. Thought problem was with BattleEye, but found that some BattleEye servers could be accessed. Pasted newest BattleEye client and server files into appropriate folder - did not work. Uninstalled OA and its BattleEye per some other forum's recommendation - did not work. Frustrating because ArmA 2 Free worked fine with these servers. Any suggestions/ideas? Should I post the RPT? Edited June 18, 2012 by mbamg Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

[frl]myke 14 Posted June 17, 2012 Are you connecting to servers with mods? Probably not, interpreting his post: Frustrating because ArmA 2 Free worked fine with these servers. What irritates me is this: Cannot confirm whether ArmA 2 can connect at v1.10, as no compatible servers are found. Are you saying that your A2 has version 1.10? Latest official patch is 1.11. Please check this and report back what version exactly you have. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Please check this and report back what version exactly you have.[/quote'] Sorry for not making it clear enough. The installation was for v1.10. I had to update it to v1.11 using the CO patch. I mean that I couldn't even test the servers before patching because I couldn't access any of the servers running v1.10. So what color is the circle for you next to the servers you are trying to join? Green. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Gunter Severloh 4062 Posted June 19, 2012 Yes. Do you have OA installed into the Arma2 directory? If not, then running the Arma2CO wont let you run off the arma2oa.exe if your running Arma2 only and OA separately, are you running both games separately when you play? Are you just running OA then you would run the arm2oa.exe, if its just Arma2 only then its just the Arma2.exe you use. Hope Im not mistaking anything.

Gunter Severloh 4062 Posted June 19, 2012 Ok. If your up to reinstalling. In order: - install ARMA2 - install 1.05 patch - install OA into Arma2 directory - install patch 1.60 (will patch your Arma2 to 1.11 as well) Run your game from the Arma2OA.exe to run Combined Ops.

ArmA II is already 1.10 from the BI Store. This is what I did: 1) Install ArmA II (Should already be 1.10 if downloaded from BI Store) 2) Launch ArmA II 3) Install ArmA II: Operation Arrowhead into the ArmA II directory. (Should automatically detect ArmA II) 4) Launch ArmA II: Combined Operations 5) Install BAF and/or PMC 6) Install the 1.60 Patch (It will automatically update ArmA II, OA, BAF, and PMC to the latest versions.)

Gunter Severloh 4062 Posted June 19, 2012 ArmA II is already 1.10 from the BI Store. Oh thats good, I got the first disc for Arma2 back when it was released i believe its v 1.0 or 1.1 was the original. A question: is launching the program at least once before updating integral to success? I would do it just to get to the menu and check the version at least, I did that when i last reinstalled and had no issues. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
mbamg 1 Posted June 24, 2012 At this point, I still haven't resolved the problem. However, I don't think it's that important to me anymore as I've found plenty of other CO servers which provide a more enjoyable overall experience (less player killers, griefers, troublemakers, plain noobs, etc.).

Cabot696 10 Posted June 26, 2012 I purchased a digital copy of CO from Amazon about a year ago but I have the same exact problem as mbamg. I have followed the suggestions in this thread but to no avail. One thing worth noting is that even if I install only Arma 2 (without OA), I still have the same problem and cannot join most BattlEye servers. Thanks a lot for the support you've provided so far Günter. Is there anything else I could try? It would be really nice to play on vanilla Arma 2 servers on occasion.
