Re: Can't Connect to the server?

**Zantheus** · 04-01-2009, 07:59 PM

I'm having the same problem connecting to Server #2... Server #1 is fine, but #2 crashes me after I connect to player lobby. Not sure why I cant connect

**Jorge.PT** · 04-02-2009, 03:53 PM

Do you have the addons (OPX maps) needed to play in server 2?

**Zantheus** · 04-03-2009, 09:27 AM

Well I think I figured it out.. I was scrolling through the forums and found a thread about the kegetys.net launcher, and I followed the simple instructions in the thread for making a @Maps folder and this morning I tried it out and I was able to connect to server #2 while it was on Black Hawk Down

Well after a few days of good gaming I just tried to join Server to and it crashed to menu upon entering again....any ideas how it would selectively happen?

Current mission is "Operation War Eagle"

I saw you trying to connect. It was complaining on missing addons, so I recommend you check your arma.rpt on what the exact error message is to see what's missing. If I remember correctly it complained about OPX-something, which suggest your Avgani and Afghan village aren't installed correctly.

OK thx...will do

**Zantheus** · 04-07-2009, 10:18 PM

Well I checked it out and this is what it said

But I have the file in my @MAPS/Addons folder as u can see here....have I set something up wrong?

**Fincuan** · 04-07-2009, 11:09 PM

Looks correct to me. If the @Maps-folder is indeed loaded via shortcut or Armalauncher then all I can think of is a corrupt opxmisc.pbo

edit: Yours is exactly the correct size, so it's unlikely to be corrupt.

**Zantheus** · 04-08-2009, 10:25 AM

Well I am a complete idiot......I use a launcher but forgot to add the maps mod to the launch...LOL sorry bout that

I'm having the same issue sort of, here are some screenshots. Please help. I can't make links or images yet because I don't have enough posts but here are the urls to the screenshots.

What is the command line for your shortcut?

**Bellum** · 04-15-2009, 01:28 AM

"C:\Program Files\Steam\steamapps\common\arma armed assault\beta\arma.exe" -mod=beta -nosplash -mod=@ACE -mod=@aceip -mod=@Afghan_Avgani

Hmm I'm not sure but it sounds like they were having a similar problem in this thread, towards the end. - http://www.tacticalgamer.com/armed-a...mods-help.html

Did you create an addons folder in Afghan/Avgani and put all .pbo and .bisign into it?

**Bellum** · 04-15-2009, 02:39 AM

It's working for now thanks.

**OAC_Rattler** · 04-16-2009, 02:38 PM

Bellum, I've been having the same issue connecting as you, I think. Did you change anything to fix the problem, or did it just start to work alright?

I've been going over the Mods needed to play thread, and I'm going to check things over again this afternoon. I hope that I can join in more often.
