Hey fookab, if you have any missing texture errors then your best bet is to validate arma files through steam, validate dayz files through steam and validate epoch files on the launcher you may use (dayz launcher) etc. If you do not use a launcher to install mods and launch the game try and reinstall the epoch mod. That usually works for any errors relating to missing textures.
Hope this helped!

Yeah. Cookie is pretty spot on. It seems like the main issue is the Epoch Mod, the rest of the files seems fine.

But to go into more detail where to find everything, this is how you do it.

Step 1: Make sure files are validated for Arma 2. Go into Steam, right click on Arma 2, go to Properties, go to Local Files, click on Verify Integrity of Game Cache. Then wait for files to validate.

Step 2: Do the same thing in Step 1, but for Arma 2 Operation Arrowhead.

Step 3: Run Arma 2 Operation Arrowhead so the files are loaded properly.

Step 4: (I hope you're using DayZ Launcher cause this is how this Step works) Open DayZ Launcher, go to the Mods tab, verify DayZ mod.

Step 5: In the Mods tab, verify DayZ Epoch mod.

Step 6: Log into the server and try out that combo lock.

If you're still getting that issue, you might want to delete the Epoch mod and redownload it in DayZ Launcher. Deleting the mod through DayZ Launcher should be able to work, but you might want to check the files on your computer to see if it actually got deleted.

To make sure you've deleted it properly, you'll probably have to search your file directory to see if the Epoch file is deleted from your computer. If your game is on your main storage drive it should go like this:

Local Disk (C:) > Program Files (x86) > Steam > steamapps > common > ARMA 2 Operation Arrowhead

If you see @DayZ_Epoch or anything Epoch related. Delete that then go into DayZ Launcher and redownload DayZ Epoch.
