Hey I was wondering if anyone was able to successfully get the Multiplayer CD Keys to work? I ran the registry file and I still can't connect to my friend's game who also has a copy of ARMA Gold from GOG with his own CD Key.

Is there an additional step that I'm missing or is this a common issue?

Worked for me just fine. Did you extract the file from the archive before running it?

I downloaded the attachment and unzipped the file with 7zip and then I ran the archived, it still didn't work. The message "Illegal copies may degrade" and CD key in use still pops up.

Dunno. Support should be able to help.

Just found out why it didn't work, the Registry Edit.exe that GOG.com sends you doesn't actually change the HEX values correctly in the Registry. You have to manually do it yourself.
Where did you find the correct values in the Registry?

Edit: Ok if the key doesnt properly install you have to go to the registry file and insert the hex codes. The hex codes can be found by right clicking on your registry installer for your CD key.

Hey, I bought Arma 2 today. And ran the serial through the arma2serial.exe program, but when I try playing Arma online, it tells me Bad CD Key. Anyone know what the problem is?
