Welcome to BI forums!

Translate that into English and maybe i can help.

[sarogahtyp 1108]

translation is "File download blocked".

 

Possibly a censorship problem?

Either the game was pirated, Battleye, or the OP's antivirus is preventing the game from loading.

Me thinks along the lines of the game being pirated, as i've seen a couple of sites about it, and a reddit post about a similar error and

all the answers were around ways around it in relation to the game being pirated.

 

If the game is pirated then do yourself a favor buy the game or we cant help you.

To me if you have the money and your to cheap to buy the game then imo you dont deserve to have this game, your just

another troll looking for a quick entertainment fix.

 

Prove me wrong.

Why? If you paid for the game would you need to pirate it too?

Unless you pirated it and then bought it after and then either forgot, or didn't remove the "stolen" version.

 

Again, do yourself a favor and most especially on this forum

dont talk about the game being pirated and asking for help for it to be able to do something

your asking to get booted and or your thread locked.

 

If you have legit questions or issues for the version you did buy then fine, i'd be willing to help wherever i can, but do the right thing,

remove the pirated version, and prove you have a legit version. 

        Announcing to the world you robbed a bank then ask questions on how to

open a savings account there is pretty bold and ignorant at the same time.

 

Do it right.

use revo uninstaller to uninstall both versions of the game completly. Then delete all arma related folders in user/username/appdata/local and also all arma related folders in your documents folder. 

appdata is a hidden folder. You have to setup your file browser to show it.

 

After deleting everything related to arma install the legit version again. Maybe it works this way.
