Maybe I'm simplifying it too much but I would think all you need to add is the ability to re-enable single player mode with the mods installed.

The error ...Luckily that's a simple one to fix. The error message is a bit stupid and disingenuous. Go into your ArmA 2 program folder and locate the folder called "Addons". Copy that and paste it into your Operation Arrowhead program folder. That will fix the error.<br /><br />DayZ mostly uses Operation Arrowhead for its engine and content, but it gets the Chernarus level from ArmA 2. If it doesn't pick up on the ArmA 2 folder properly, it fails to load the Chernarus files and accuses you of deleting them. By copying the Addons folder across, DayZ will find the Chernarus files it needs in the OA folder and not have a problem.kodabarhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12012946263315748858noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8406877560061160385.post-39079785738478576482013-01-22T19:27:27.355+00:002013-01-22T19:27:27.355+00:00Uh, my game cannot be played, so far, I could only...Uh, my game cannot be played, so far, I could only go to mission, and somehow there's a notofication that I couldn't play the DaiZy mod, cause I've deleted Chernarus, which I dont believe I did.. can you troubleshoot me please?Aryancuy!https://www.blogger.com/profile/06538159454178112995noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8406877560061160385.post-35803329180312264912013-01-21T13:54:10.639+00:002013-01-21T13:54:10.639+00:00Ah I try to set disabled anti-aliasing,ppaa,vsync ...Ah I try to set disabled anti-aliasing,ppaa,vsync and post process effects too.<br />Thanks!Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8406877560061160385.post-46578618490369258252013-01-21T13:41:19.792+00:002013-01-21T13:41:19.792+00:00Well, your processor is better than mine.

The ArmA games are like 'lite' versions of those military simulators. They use a lot of CPU power as well as a lot of GPU. It takes a very powerful system to run with everything on high.<br /><br />I have most things on normal, but I have anti-aliasing, PPAA, vsync and Post-process effects set to disabled. My 3D resolution is 1680 x 1050 and so is my interface resolution. It's important to set the 3D resolution and the interface resolution to be the same - otherwise the game runs slowly and looks ugly.kodabarhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12012946263315748858noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8406877560061160385.post-24811363394059303002013-01-21T13:34:09.379+00:002013-01-21T13:34:09.379+00:00Ah one more quesrtion.
