Thread: ARMA2 & OA's Steam Thread: All Steam Q's/discussions go here [covered by Dwarden]

  1. #751
    HI, thanks for the info on the verifying the files

    I did that on Arma2, Arma2 OA, and the BAF stuff and everything checked out fine

    I am still getting these messages about "downloadable content that has been deleted" specifically CAWheeled2_BTR and other CA things.
    I have no idea where these CA things came from.

    Would it maybe help if I just deleted the local content and reinstalled all the arma2 components?

  2. #752
    I am also having the same issue with these CAWheeled2_BTR90 files. I can't seem to locate this in the Arma Folders which could mean its all hidden elsewhere?

  3. #753
    AFAIK the "CA" stuff is addons belonging to ArmA2. Are you guys sure that you are running ArmA2 and OA combined?

    I purchased Arma II combined operations from Steam and have both installed, so technically it should be able to work. Unless I am missing some interface somewhere. But the thing is, the multi-player recognizes that I have Arma II, Arma II OA and British armed forces.

    This makes me unable to play any chernarus multiplayer map, could anyone help me?

    run STEAM as administrator
    start first ARMA 2 (this writes key into registry), exit ARMA 2
    start ARMA 2: BAF (to ensure BAF is properly installed)
    starts ARMA 2: OA binary so no worry
    start ARMA 2: Combined Operations
    starts ARMA 2: OA binary so no worry


    now you should be able load all maps in editor (Utes, Desert, Chernarus, Takistan, Shapur)

    in case this don't work try revalidate file cache of each title and repeat the procedure

    Is there a way to make a shortcut for Combined Operations? I'm kinda lazy and like to have shortcuts. I also forget to go into my games library and right click OA to run CO.

    To my post previously: http://forums.bistudio.com/showthread.php?t=107354

    I am still getting the same error after turning off UAC and letting steam run under administrator priviledge - Basically I deleted all local content (ARMA 2, ARMA 2 OA, ARMA 2 Brtish Armed Forces) and redownloaded ARMA 2 OA and got the error when starting it.

    PS: I also chosen to participate in beta steam program.

    Anyone please help. Thanks

    so far everyone who encoutered issues with BAF and STEAM was fixable with one of these steps

    1. run STEAM as administrator (applise to below steps too)

    2. revalidating filecache of ARMA 2 and ARMA 2: OA
    + starting ARMA 2 and ARMA 2: OA once

    3. erasing these folders inside OA (\BAF\ and \DLCsetup\)
    + reinstalling A2: BAF

    as for You these seems to not work ... there are several other questions

    do i understood correctly You are getting this error with only ARMA 2: OA ? (A2 and A2:BAF not installed)
    what's exactly you OS ?
    same error even if you enable UAC and use 'run as administrator'? (yes disabling UAC caused weird result for some users)
    any special security suite (HIPS firewalls like Comodo Suite, Norton Suite etc)?
    any other special software running (memory firewalls, sandboxing or else ?)
    was ARMA2OA.rpt created on startup of arma2oa.exe?
    on W7 located e.g. C:\Users\%USERNAME%\AppData\Local\ArmA 2 OA\
