ArmA2 Steam dedicated server install

Recommended Posts

Hi,

I have downloaded the game via steam

C:\Program Files\Steam\steamapps\common\arma 2

I downloaded the 1.4 dedicated server file and put it in the arma2 folder.

I am switching servers from a previously working server, so the ports have been opened and are working fine. Static IP has been configured as I am able to access the server through remote desktop.

My problem is that the server is not reading the server.cfg

I am using a launch command that looks like this.

"ArmA2Server.exe" -config=server.cfg -cfg=ArmA2.cfg -profiles=default -port=2302

the launch command is directly in the arma2 folder as with all the configs that I got off of kelleys heros site.

I believe the server shows up. because I see a server named "server" with a 0 ping. which indicates same network as me. But its not reading the config. Any ideas?

Wait, you downloaded the game via Steam and installed the 1.4 patch manually?

That's probably your problem.

NO. A installation of Arma2 from steam will be updated to the 1.4 patch automatically.

I said, I downloaded the 1.4 DEDICATED SERVER FILE, which is needed to launch arma2 as a serve
