wheres my bat file?  :(

DayZ_Epoch_instance_11_Chernarus.bat is default.  Most of us use custom launchers.

 

In your root.

I found the solution to your problem after a buddy and I spent a few hours hunting down the issue. 

In your bat file, you need to change your bat file .exe paths

This is what it currently is:

@echo off

start "arma2" /min "Expansion\beta\arma2oaserver.exe" -port=2302 "-config=instance_11_Chernarus\config.cfg" "-cfg=instance_11_Chernarus\basic.cfg" "-profiles=instance_11_Chernarus" -name=instance_11_Chernarus "-mod=@DayZ_Epoch;@DayZ_Epoch_Server;"

 

This is what it needs to be

 

@echo off

start "arma2" /min "arma2oaserver.exe" -port=2302 "-config=instance_11_Chernarus\config.cfg" "-cfg=instance_11_Chernarus\basic.cfg" "-profiles=instance_11_Chernarus" -name=instance_11_Chernarus "-mod=@DayZ_Epoch;@DayZ_Epoch_Server;"

The issue is that you need to use the exe in the root folder rather than the exe in the expansion folder. 

 OMG you fixed it haha thanks man :)
