Please release a normal launcher for the game. It is impossible to run mods without a normal launcher and log into servers (dayz launcher is not meant to run other mods). And due to the fact that arma 2 cannot be placed in the folder with OA, you cannot go to the servers (throws it out).

Hi guys, just installed A2+A2:OA+all DLC after couple years and I just want to play campaings, no MP. Should i use some downloadable stuff like CBA or Corepatch to get the best (bugless) experience? Or are these fixes already included in latest official patch?
Thanks for advice :).

@Jakubnydl


So that you do not have problems with the game and its dlc, install as I detail here.
Once installed you go to the game, right click on it, click on properties, then in the window that opens you go to the "beta" tab and select "Legacy"

If you are going to use any mod, you need CBA, a highly recommended mod is JSRS Sound Mod, and my mod 😉 SSL - Sky Sun & Lighting Mod

1- Install ArmA 2
2- Run ArmA2
3- Close ArmA2

4- Install ArmA 2 Operation Arrowhead
5- Run ArmA 2 Operation Arrowhead
6- Army of Czech Republic should start installing to A2OA.

7- Install ArmA 2 British Armed Forces
8- Run ArmA 2 British Armed Forces
9- British Armed Forces should start installing to A2OA.

10- Run ArmA 2 Private Military Company
11- Private Military Company should start installing to A2OA.

Game it should work with all DLCs without problems.

if you don't have the DLC just skip that step.

JSRS Sound Mod - Download
Best Sound Mod

SSL - Sky Sun & Lighting - Download
It improves the global illumination of the islands, the textures of the sky and avoids being blinded by light sources.

@GHOST

Thanks!!
I must say the SSL looks amazing. Is there a way to make it work in campaing? I only see it in editor.
GHOST Dec 7, 2021 @ 9:23am 
The mod since it is loaded is already working, because it changes the lighting and colors of the islands, what you see in the editor are 21 color profiles, they are for when you want to edit a mission and want it to look different, more saturated colors , less saturated, stronger shadows, etc, etc.

If the mission or campaign has a color profile applied, which is sometimes quite normal in official missions or campaigns, the SSL lighting is working, but the color profile that the mission or campaign has scripted is also working.

You can test missions or campaigns with the mod deactivated, take a screenshot and then do the same with the mod activated and you will see the difference.

I am currently removing the color profiles that the campaigns have, those profiles make it look ugly, I wanted to replay the campaigns with good lighting, with more vivid colors.

No sound of firing (from unguided aircraft missiles) in the British Ah-64 "APACHE" helicopter.
Hey_Its_Iroh Oct 23, 2024 @ 9:37am 
so i've been trying to play arma day z epoch for a while but for the past month's i've been getting the same errors and i don't know how to fix the issue

i have windows 11

the errors i get are :

before the game start on the intro screen

armA 2 OA

addon 'sauerland reqcuires addon 'chernarus

then on the splashscreen:
no entry bin/config.bin/CfgWorlds/dayZmod.ilsPosition.
and you cannot play/edit this mission it is dependent on downloadable content that has been deleted.chernarus
lx Oct 23, 2024 @ 10:04am 
this addon chernarus is it a mod, or official? if its official, try to reinstall or verify.
you are posting at the wrong topic anyway. make a new, or post somewhere else.
i dont think your issue is related to this old update.
GHOST Oct 23, 2024 @ 10:50am 
@Hey_Its_Iroh as @LX already told you, you are posting where it does not correspond, the error of not being able to play dayz is because you do not have ArmA2 standalone installed or maybe you deleted or the files were deleted in this case, the file "chernarus.pbo" which is the island of ArmA 2 standalone, you can solve it by reinstalling ArmA 2 Standalone or verifying the installation files.

Also depending on the version of Win11 you have, Battleye might not even work and the only solution is to go back to Win10 or an older version of Win11, since the latest version has many problems that have not yet been patched with some anticheats, such as Easy anticheat and Bettleye.
