How do I use the command line? Or is this in the config somewhere?

I saw only 2 decently populated servers, one had like 30 people and I got kicked on joining or game session lost, the second server gives me a message saying "downloading mission file" but 0kb/0kb and doesnt work :( How do I join a server or is every server modded or something?

Okay I'm getting this weird issue where every second the game freezes for a slight second and then runs normally for a second then freezes again ad infinitum to the point where the game is encredibly jerky.

How do I find out what the server ip and pw is for any given server? ---------- Post added at 05:05 AM ---------- Previous post was at 04:24 AM ---------- still getting "recieving mission file ( 0kb / 0kb ) I added ports to my router, double checked my firewall and nothin. Nothing works for me, mp seems inherently unplayable. ---------- Post added at 05:43 AM ---------- Previous post was at 05:05 AM ---------- Okay disabling DMZ seems to have worked, that or admin mode.

caanot load texture ca\structures\data\roof\roof_ethernit_smdi.paa this pops up when loading AO and when trying to join a server in MP, game is patched to 1.5something.

Error found in file ADDONS\anims.pbo (0000000!=0000001) I have already tried redownloading/reinstalling, same error. Please be patient. This update may appear to take a long time to complete. It is updating and installing very large data. ARMA II Steam ArmA 2: Updating version 1.02 to version 1.07...

My cpu is on default.

So far ive only tried normal arma2 not AO yet, other servers give either the same problem or im auto kicked.

I'm getting little annoyances, I cant seem to "download mission file" in mp.

Okay, I finally got into the game, aaaaaand problems: 1. The mouse control is nearly unplayably jerky for me, basically when I move it the mouse always moves too far past where I want it to stop, thus is almost impossible for me to smoothely aim. Essentially no matter what I set the controls to I cant smoothely aim. 2. The firing range course is bugged, if I fail it once it just keeps on infinitly repeating that I didnt get the targets on time and keeps on asking if I want to try again and keeps on repeating yes. 3. For some reason now after relaunching the game when I'm moving or looking around I got like 2 seconds of smooth moving and then FREEZE and then smooth moving again.

Maybe they share a distributor? Either way I didn't use the steam client, I used the gamersgate client, I know of noway to get it from steam without buying it a second time. So errors aside I finally got OA installed, just need to test it now.

I bought it with Gamersgate I cant download it from Steam. Theyre two completely different stores.

same error with 1.04 ---------- Post added at 12:08 AM ---------- Previous post was Yesterday at 11:21 PM ---------- Reinstalled, repatched with 1.04, some different errors thought this time it seems to actually be willing to complete. As for whether the game will work, dunno.

I already just tried that version from t5hat link and it still gives that problem. ---------- Post added at 04:46 PM ---------- Previous post was at 04:20 PM ---------- Reinstalled the game, tried patching under administrator mode and turned off 'read only' under properties, it kinda helped but i still got numerous errors.

I wanted to be on the safe side. And yeah, different mirror same problem, refuses to patch.

This happens with every file in the addons folder..... Gamersgate version 1.02, also tried a DVD version still doesn't work, as well as different mirrors for the patch. Any suggestions?

Okay i launched the game after reinstalling, says 1.02 1.05 or is there a 1.02 to 1.05? Yeah I'm getting the same problem.

I downloaded it from Gamersgate, I already tried redownloading and reinstalling, it still absolutely refuses to patch. I have version 1.00, this is the 1.00 to 1.07 patch.

Error found in file ADDONS\air.pbo (0000000!=0000001) Not sure if I should ignore it or if its important.

I'm not too familiar with Nvidia cards :-/

Guys would this run? I would hopefully like to know before I waste 50 bucks hopefully... ;)

I was thinking of purchasing Arma2 as I like realistic tactical shooter/warfare simulators but I have been dissapointed before by the lacklustre performance of previous games I've played, usually because it stumbles on the multiplayer aspect. So, is Arma2 MP well supported? Servers well populated? Fun fun should I get it? Should I get the original or the stand alone first if my money is limited?

I have a P5K/EPU motherboard, 4GB of ram, a E6850 @ 3.0Ghz Intel Core2 DUO and 2x 3870's with Crossfire, will it run at 30~fps?
