This mod is awesome so far. Is there anyone on here that wants to team up with me?
And on a side note, after reading a book about the occult and finishing a degree in astrophysics, I got this game working. Now the nag server keeps telling me I haven't got CBA_Main, but if I install anything CBA the server says I have disallowed mods! Grrrrrrrr.
So any advice will be greatly appreciated. I can't find @hive on the mod lists either.
I installed everything from scratch yesterday and here's all that I did (I have the steam version):
1.installed both games.
2.ran both games once.
3.created directories '@DayZ\Addon' directly under operation arrowhead folder and copied dayz contents there. (cant remember if it's 'Addon' or 'Addons' but check in the dayz download notes)
4.download the arma 2 beta update and run the update.
5.directly in the operation arrowhead folder there is a .bat/.cmd file called 'arma2_co_beta' (or something close to that). make a backup of the file just in case. edit the file and on the last line where the command line parameters are written just add "-mod=@DayZ" before the '-window' and '-nosplash' parameters. you can erase the '-window' parameter to open it fullscreen.
6.run the above mentioned file directly and not the steam shortcut.
That's exactly what I did yesterday and it worked. I might have the exact filenames wrong atm because I'm not at home but lemme know if something is not there that should be there etc.
BTW I also get that error about missing CBAmain but only right after I enter the game and as far as I can tell it hasn't affected anything.
