Grunt_AS 0 Posted June 12, 2007 I am in the same boat as you DrBobcat....game installs from UK DVD...then patch to 1.05....which works....then to 1.08 which does not start. DVD spins up....but nothing happens....WITF were they doing...this should NOT be happening to ANYBODY!!!! If it is copy protection related well then that is just BS!!...and why the hell should DrBobcat or anyone else have to contact Securom about it. How many more people have to try to install the 1.08 before they realize that they have a problem...it may not be everybody's problem....but there is one that exists....and I'm not liking it one friggin bit Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Shalashaska 0 Posted June 12, 2007 Well that's cute. I have to delete my registry files every reset apparently to get it to work. I had it work, then as soon as I reset, I had them load again and require me to delete them. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Jake the Snake 0 Posted June 12, 2007 Hmmm, I'm having some major problems to get my joystick (which I had happily and perfectly working with 1.05) working- even registering in 1.08; can anyone help me out? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

M.Andersson(SWE) 4 Posted June 12, 2007 Ok... My sit, Bought ArmA by 505Games (1.04) Updated to 1.05 then to 1.05FIX. Got the 1.07 but expierenced some problems with no gun and gunfire from chest..REMOVED all extra addons (non BI) Fixed. Got the 1.07FIX worked fine. And now 1.08.5157 or something works great. If your having problems, try to remove the intire game with ALL folders even user ones. Then reinstall, Patch up and LEAVE the orig addons folder alone. IF you install additional addons put them in a modfolder. When your done installing make a shortcut from your ORIG arma.exe and name it ArmA + Addons or something and in the startfield of that file you enter: "C:\Program Files\Bohemia Interactive\ArmA\arma.exe" -nosplash mod=@Mapfact ....Were mod=@Mapfact equals YOUR extra addonfolder... NOTE THIS: There ARE problems with additional addons as i have found them NOT compatible with 1.08. Like Mapfact, voice quiet, FDF, Evans A10 and so on.. So the best way to be sure its not the game thats causing problems LEVE the orig addonfolder alone.. AND, COPY! the orig arma.exe. That way you will have a CLEAN game to try out... ANY QUESTIONS Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Grunt_AS 0 Posted June 12, 2007 Some of us...myself included....have completely uninstalled the game....ie....completely....gone thru the registry AND EVERYTHING!!! Then....installed to a new folder...then patched to 1.05 (from 1.04). At this point I have a working game...no problems...no extra folders...nada....just good old Arma 1.055136... THEN.....I installl the "correct" 1.05 to 1.08 patch and all this goes to the HOT PLACE in a handbasket. So now my game sits at 1.055136....awaiting the "real" patch..... . Oh ....I have sent my file off to Securom as well.....not that I should frikken have to do that.... . Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

KenO 0 Posted June 12, 2007 Having problems server side, using the server.exe with the 1.08 patch runs fine, but none on my computers with the 1.08 patch on them can connect to the server ???any one help ? I am also having server problem. ArmA_server.exe on leased server says it running on one of control pages, but another says status is unavailable and the server doesnt apear in my server directory. Others do so I know it isnt client side. Incedentally, Direct2Drive version (1.06) patched with 1.08US works flawlessly for me..no other mods installed. I feel like the patch was a big improvement, though I cant quite say completely why yet, for sure it is in part to smoother gameplay, less ai warping and crisper graphics.

chammy 7 Posted June 12, 2007 Ok, I got, its all working now, with alot of corrections made. All I did was purge everything, (well not the computer) I uninstalled ArmA, reinstalled, reinstalled 1.05, then reinstalled 1.08. All works like a charm, I probably didnt have to re install 1.05 but I did just in case. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Zorasht 0 Posted June 12, 2007 You can try send a mail to starforce/securom and say them what's your problem.If i remember right, they ask guys to launch a small program to detect what's the problem. So if it is a dvd protection problem, they will find it. (they send unprotected .exe when you can't launch the game 'cause of their protection, at least for securom) I have done that already. I'm waiting for an answer though. But the other people with the same problem who have already conteacted securom support haven't received any solution yet, so I assume I have to wait for a fix from BI or for the copy protection to be removed from the game....

Ratcatcher 0 Posted June 12, 2007 OK, here's a new twist on the game won't start after 108... I've a dual boot system, on XP I try and start the game, disc spins up, but then nothing. Tried on Vista, game disc spins up and...game loads normally! ( But runs like poo ) I have tried all the solutions so far posted but they have not made any difference.

anonjj 0 Posted June 12, 2007 Securom Problems see herehttp://www.flashpoint1985.com/cgi-bin....04;st=0 multiple solutions in that thread Thanks Dwarden! I tried that resolution but it did not work. I deleted all the registry entires except for my hard drives which I can't have re-assigned to the default letters - that would totally hose my windows install that has been working for about two years now. That's just crazy for SecuROM and BIS to expect people to go to such lengths to get the game working. Yeah I had dmon tools installed but I uninstalled it and that still hasn't fixed the game from not even loading to a boot screen. I feel very much let down and abandoned by BIS at this point.

TrunkzJr 0 Posted June 12, 2007 I played the last few hours pretty nicely without a single CTD [considering i was getting them from 1 second to 5min]. I installed ForceWare 160.03 Vista 64-bit. BUT, i notice that when I play on that Evolution map, that when i drive to the first town, part way there, theres always this one spot where it starts to get laggy then it will CTD, i have no idea why either. There are sometimes where a map will load but sometimes just freeze and i'll have to ALT+CTRL+DEL and close the game down. I think tho i had more problems BEFORE i installed that Forceware driver then After it [theres still some problems, but its much more playable then before] I do have the - maxmem=768 on, I dunno if thats helping either, I think i will try it without and see how that works after installing the new forceware. http://downloads.guru3d.com/download.php?det=1635 [ForceWare 160.03 Vista 64-bit ] http://downloads.guru3d.com/download.php?det=1634 [ForceWare 160.03 Vista 32-bit ] Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
alanB 0 Posted June 12, 2007 Update 1.04-1.05\ADDONS\UIFONTS.PBO.UPD cannot be applied, error xdelta3 returned error code: 1I keep getting this error! I got something like this twice, once my temp directory had filled up with 32,000+ files and another the permissions (on NTFS partition) had been changed somehow. The patch creates a copy of the program xdelta3 in the temp directory so check out temp directory is not full of files, low on disk space or inaccessible. Hope that helps.
