Hello PMC,

I recently bought Arma 2: Combined Operations, and it's not downloading fully! Operation Arrowhead Downloaded, But Arma 2 did not, it just keep's saying "Download Paused" I hit the Resume Download button, and it downloaded for a minute or so, and went back to "Download Paused" And at the bottom of my Steam it say's 1 Item Downloading?!

Please help, Itching to play Day Z...

Okay...So I finally got them downloaded, Installed Day Z, and now i get yet ANOTHER complication! Now it say's

Addon 'dayz_anim' requires addon 'CA_Dubbing_Counterattack'

So I close that, Arma 2 Operation Arrowhead comes up as normal, i go to Multiplayer, then i see multiple Server's for Day Z, each with a red X next to it. It won't even let me try to join one?

If anyone know's how to fix this, please let me know.

You need to run the six updater, then the six launcher, and then update it, then you should be able to play DayZ.

There, Thank You SO much Roran, i did that, and finally got it working...Yet i got a bit dissapointed when i played it...Very Laggy for me, lowered the Settings to as low as i can, Resolution is at "Very Low", Closed all my other programs, Ended all non essential Program's, even cleared about 10 Gigs of space....Yet It's still lagging hard on me, i have a Dual Proccesor, HP
-Radeon Graphics
-Windows 7
- 64 Bit operating System
-4.00 GB RAM (3.60 GB usable)
-AMD E-300 APU Proccesor
Model- HP 2000 Notebook PC


Any way i can boost my performance, is greatly encouraged.

And Weston, I can never keep track of the server I played on for 10 or so minute's, But if you have a server, I can try to find it, just type it in a Comment.

Try to keep track of the server by the number. US #248 or something. easier that way.

Also, my computer is pretty B.A. I can run Minecraft full screen at average 160 FPS. DayZ is just a laggy mod. I don't have a problem running the actual game at normal. I think it has to do with you render the entire map, and there is 225 km of it.

A way to boost your performance is to buy a gaming computer.
Your processor is ancient.
4GB RAM is also not very good for ARMA 2.
HP computers are usually crap.
