MidTower 0 Posted January 24, 2007 This game surly has potential, but it needs plenty of work. Â I used the file for the dedicated server for Windows XP and it connects, but when I go to play multiplayer it just repeats the vote count when my son and I try to run the game? Â It goes through time count and then it repeats its self over and over and the game will not start? Need help, thank you! Â HELP! Any one have a clue regarding this problem? This is what I get?

Â Â Â Â ************************************************ Well, it appears support from official support is not commenting on the problems on the this forum. Not a good idea when they want to sell a product. Guess I'll wait until OFFICIAL SUPPORT for ArmA can answer the questions that have been requested!

hoz 0 Posted January 27, 2007 If you login as admin once connected to the server, there is no vote option, you are in control. If by chance you login after you selected the mission then simply hit cancel go back and choose the mission again and you should be good to go. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

UPDATE: I was not using the proper file, which was 5116. Its works now. Â Just need to know how to change the server name now? Thank you. Â Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
