Recommended Posts

It also leave a dump file on my desktop and i believe it to be an issue with my public key token if you don't want to read through all the jargon but if I launch the Arma 3 only .exe and also the battleye .exe it launches and I can play multiplayer. As we all know the launcher is so much easier especially when playing with mods but I just cannot figure this one out. So please if you can help or have any advise please let me know i shall leave the dump file below if you care to take a look at it:
