I use a dvd based version of ArmA2, not steam, so i have to install patches and battleye manually. This is fine, however when I go to the battleye website to install it, the file doesn't unzip on my computer. It tells me to save the file in the battleye folder under my arma2 directory, but I did that and it doesn't seem to do anything. I am getting booted from servers because battleye is either not running or not updated. Can someone please take the time to give me some slow steps to saving and opening battleye in the correct location (and how to get to that location)? I would be very thankful! P.S. when I try to "open" the battleye download folder, it simply refreshes the popup which asks open, save, or cancel. I press open and the popup refreshes again. I don't think I can open the battleye download file. I tried making a folder to save the dll into, but it hasn't installed battleye...am I not finding the Arma2 Install directory???

my only problem with this mission is that when you run out of 5.56 ammo, the ammo trucks can only resupply with 7.62 AK ammo :(

So this is a problem I've seen come about in many missions for other people but it's the first time it's happened for me. Anyway, all my objectives are complete. I've secured all the towns, captured 2/2 evidence by talking to the abused civilians and I've just finished saving the village Vishnoye or whatever from the warlord. The mission won't end though even though all my tasks are green and accomplished. The only thing I didn't do was I didn't kill the priest. I ignored that mission by telling the CDF general that we had our "signals crossed" and he misunderstood me when he thought I was asking to kill the priest. I have the latest version of the game. i'm currently standing at Point Oranges scratching my head...why won't this mission end?

usually bullet sounds seem instant, but i've been shot and even killed before i heard the gunfire before. I think it's just a design flaw. But over most distances you will see the gunfire before you hear it.

I'm 18. I love the realism. Even if my computer can't run ArmA 2 with the same graphical beauty and physics as games like Call of Duty (or probably even the new Operation Flashpoint game) I appreciate the intensity of the combat and the sounds of the weapons SO much more.

so somehow during the mission "Badlands" i've managed to make it so that my Razor squad regroups/follows eachother, but not me. I give them the regroup order, but they regroup on themselves and not me. I say regroup and they say "all follow 2," or "all follow all." How do i command them to follow/regroup on me, not them? Also, as a followup question, i occasionally somehow make the game so that it changes my command HUD to waypoints, and my units are replaced by blue rectangles with lines in them. I turn into a waypoint commander or something. is there a way to reset this as well? Note that these two problems don't happen at the same time or usually in the same mission. Thanks!

thanks!

sorry guys i'm fairly new to the forums and very new to ArmA2. Got it 2 days ago. After I download a new mission, what are the steps i take to extracting/installing and accessing it as a playable mission in ArmA2? Thanks.

Maybe the UAV overhead saw you ;) or the AC130 maybe? Or maybe the AI is simply messed up...bingo!

would I run this on an hdx16t with T9900 processor, 4 GB DDR2 RAM, and a GT 130M graphics card? I don't care if the details aren't exactly "pretty," so long as the gameplay functions decently.

Um...obviously the Cobra attack chopper...or any of the game's gunships. They all go well with "Flight of the Valkyries!"

I don't think a game campaign playing as a German soldier in WWII would be good, since they represented a government that was sending millions of civilians to their deaths simply for being different.

what's so frustrating about all this isn't the bugs, nor the lack of mission direction, but the combination of both! You don't know whether or not something is wrong with the mission or you just aren't following orders. That's the flaw. In other games it is easier to tell when there's a bug or a glitch.
