I am having some problems launching the game. It launches and says
Data File too short 'addons/anims.pbo'. Expected 650211804 B, got 446300160 B

I also downloaded it off steam.

I managed to figure out what files were corrupt on my arma 2 folder. I unzipped every .gz file into separate folders manually using winrar and checking to see it could finish uncompressing. Now I'm missing a few files from Operation Arrowhead, and I'm not sure which ones. I got to 80% of the installation and it stopped at this directory:
ArmA 2- Operation Arrowhead\OperationArrowhead\Expansion\Addons\stru ctures_e.pbo

I downloaded this from amazon, so I don't think I have sprocket.exe to verify my downloads

So I just bought ArmAII and OA via Steam, while ArmAII works fine, when ever I trying run OA, right before to game boots up i get this error (No entry 'bin\config.bin/CfgInGameUI/MPTable.shadow') I press ok and it starts booting up but then i get this ( Errpe compiling pixel shader PSSpecularAlpha:0) then the game crashes. I have redownloaded it 4 times and i still get the same problem. Its not my computers fault, im running a customized Alienware M14x gaming laptop with the works. I've played both portal games, deadspace2, and WoW(this the highest graphics option) and they run fine.

This stresses me out because idk what to do. I payed $30 for an incomplete file. it like buying a car and they don't give you the engine.

Help please, I guessing i'm going to need to copy paste the file manually because Steam is to retarded to give it to me

I just bought the retail CO from the bistore yesterday. Spent all night downloading A2, go to install this morning, put in key, then get an read file error saying that Battleye.exe is missing.

Google hasn't turned up results, and searching brings up everything else. What do I do?

ETA: I believe I fixed it. I had left the sprocket downloader open. Once I hit stop and closed it, I was able to finish installation.

Downloaded OA from the Bis store. When I try to install I get an error Message that says "file read error: C:\Users\Jman\Documents\ARMA2Patch_1_09.exe.xz"

On the setup window it says "source: C:\Users\Jman\Documents\ARMA2Patch_1_09.exe.xz"

Am I missing something? This file does not exist. Is it coming from the OA install? Do I need to download something else oris my install corrupted. The sproket window said file missing but it also said it was at 100%.

After clicking on the Launcher a pop-up come up saying "The program can't start because X3DAudio1-6.dll is missing from your
computer. Try reinstalling the program to fix this problem."
I don't know what to do can someone please help me?

When I installed the game, and tried starting it up, it told me that smething was corrupted during the download/install. So I verified the game cache, it said a single file was missing, but it wouldn't downlad the file, and I tried this several times. So I finally decided to re-install the game, still didn't work. Idk what t d, if anybody can help.

Ps. My "O" key is a little messed up, so that's why some of my words are a little messed up.
