Arma 2 oa has stopped working - crash to desktop: FIXED!!

Recommended Posts

I am getting Battle Eye Initialization failed, and I cant play for 24 hours now. Is this what you were talking about? Also if I do what you said with the folders, will I lose all the gear for my character?

Tried and does not work. Still crashes to desktop via Steam and Six Updater gives me the cannot edit mission crap or failed to connect. Does not work at all!

EDIT: I just deleted the @Dayz folder, and then went to Six Launcher and pressed install, tried a game through Six Launcher and works... So far.

Tried it through Steam and it still crashes to desktop. I hope this gets fixed because I need my game to run through Steam, as I need and use the overlay on a big scale so best fix it soon!

Have you done what the Devs have posted to make the beta patch and Steam syncing?

When you get stuck at wait for host, it's a problem with the BattlEye files not communicating as they should with your beta patch. I'm guessing you are either running 94945 or 95054. Download these 2 files:

http://www.battleye....61/BEClient.dll

http://www.battleye....61/BEServer.dll

and put them into your arma 2 operation arrowhead/Expansion/BattlEye folder and replace the files already in there with the ones you just downloaded.

Damn right rammfisch, you got it working, if you ever need bait or someone to take a bullet for you in day-z let me know, be more than glad to.

Also little tip for everyone that gets "bad player name" launch arma OA and create a new profile, you don't lose your save it will just give you a new name and your gear and location will still be present with the new name.

If you guys would stop doing stupid shit that people tell you to do to your installation, you wouldn't be having these issues.

Coming back for an update: I can now play since the beta was updated, so it was just broken.

dafuq are you talking about man, most of us have been playing previously and the sixupdater update jacked up a bunch of stuff.

I don't think that's the problem. I'd like to see the hypocrisy when you encounter a problem which you cannot solve and have to revert to other people for a solution. There is no need to insult people just because they have an error which is quite easily attained. Grow up.

Totally agree. Trolls must die.

Whenever I try to run the patch file, I always get an error message saying this, "ArmA 2 OA has encountered a problem and needs to close. We are sorry for the inconvenience."

If I try to run the normal game instead of the patch file, the game works. The only problem is that it's not updated.

I made a thread about it with a picture provided here: http://dayzmod.com/forum/index.php?/topic/39434-arma-2-oa-has-encountered-a-problem-and-needs-to-close/

Any help would be appreciated.

Well, this is another problem and is not related to battleye. I'd recommend if you bought the steam version run Verifying Game Cache Files (GCF) and if not deinstall the beta completely once again and reinstall afterwards following this guide by Rammfisch and me. http://dayzmod.com/forum/index.php?/topic/32290-arma-2-oa-has-stopped-working-crash-to-desktop-fixed/page__st__40

Download Six Updater and update all your files through that. It'll get rid of this hassle quite quickly. If you're still having trouble, send me a PM and I'll talk you through it. No point rising an old post from the grave :P

I'Ve got a problem, if this thread is stil lactive :P. When I join a game (no matter whether Origins, DayZ Chernarus, Namalsk or other DayZ Chernarus versions as e.g. TiMz) some seconds after the join I get "DayZDumbass is losing connection" and then kicked by Battleye Client not responding. Don't have any problems with my Internet. Playing BF3, CoD any many other games too without any DC's. It's a DayZ problem... Almost tried everyhting. Reinstalling Arma 2, OA, Battleye manually or per .exe, disabled firewall, opening ports, set MTU to 1500 (this solved my signature check timed out problem :D) and many other things. DayZ works normally on my Laptop in same Internet (on same Router). Any ideas?

 

Please please help, i wanna play DayZ normally again!

None of this worked for me either tho I I downloaded my game direct from ArmA.

 

I can not do half the steps because every time I try to start up an arma game I have the same crash issues.
