Crymac 0 Posted September 17, 2020 Hello dear Arma 3 Community, I hope you can help me. A few days ago ireset my PC because I had a nervebreaking problem with starting games like The Elder Scrolls Online, The Witcher 2 and a few more. The reason was, that the PC missed dll. files. The result was, that the games wouldn't start anymore. Arma 3 ran without problems, but I wanted to solve the problem. Now after I reseted the PC, the Games above are running fine, but Arma 3 is now the game, which isn't running, because, you can guess, a few dll. files are missing. So what can I do about that? Do you have any ideas? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Gunter Severloh 3948 Posted September 17, 2020 Hello Crymac, Welcome to BI Forums! Sorry to read about your troubles, if i may suggest to do a verify integrity of cache https://support.steampowered.com/kb_article.php?s=8d664ec89f71a25b093f2bff68597502&ref=2037-QEUH-3335&l=english also for the launcher review the required files here and be sure to have or install them: https://arma3.com/launcher/troubleshooting Couple of questions: 1. When you go to start the game, your using a desktop launcher icon, starting from your library, and or right clicking your steam icon (bottom right on taskbar) and then choosing arma3 to start the game correct? 2. Does the launcher startup at all, or just the game dont start after clicking play on the launcher? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Crymac 0 Posted September 18, 2020 Hello Gunter, I thank you very much for the fast respond.<3 To answer your questions: I start the game by using the desktop Icon, no problems at all, the Launcher starts fine. But after I click the 'Play' button on the bottom left, an Error message appears and all I can do is diagnoze the error, which then reveals, that a dll.-file is missing.
