Hello all.. I seem to be having a few problems...
1st When i try to join a MP game i see all the servers but when i click on a server to join i start to load in.. I see all the chatting.. Then i get the Multiplayer setting menue where you would select your position but it is blank. Also if i click ok (even though i can't select a spot) it goes to a black screen saying Recieving Mission File... If i wait there nothing more happens. I can still see all the chat but nothing else. If i join a server that has nobody in it i can select a map and the voting screen comes up. then the mission screen comes up and is not blank. I see all the slots to select a class/weapon but i can't select it. My name has a green flag beside it instead of the blue or red. I hope someone here has a clue as to what is going on...
2nd problem. Sometimes my game crashes right after it starts loading. I get a windows error and the only way to fix it is completly delete my profile cinfig from the My Document folder..l I reinstall the OpenAL installer and stuff but it has happened a few times while trying to figure this all out.
I have the 1.02 update and the sigle player loads fine.so here are all my specs
Intel core duo 6400
4gb dual channel corsair
Nvidia 7900GTX 512Mb
X-FI Extreme Audio
21" HP Widescreen @<hidden> 1680x1050
500GB Maxtor SATA HDD
WinXP Home
All Updated drivers and win svc packs
ArmA v1.02 German with the .9 language patch
I have tried to reinstall MANY times and nothing
I am not new to gaming or comps but this seems to be a problem i have not encountered. I have tried everything i can to do with firewall and router settings (exept opening ports cause i can't find anything on what ports it uses other then the one) including being a DMZ host. Turning Firewall off (back on though cause that didn't work). So here i am humbled by this problem. I hope you all can help me...
