[CaptainBravo 0]

Hey everyone,

A NooB question it seems but I just upgraded to Win7 and now I can not seem to find .ArmA2Profile ??

You got stuff in...

Documents>Arma2/Arma2 Other Profiles

And stuff in

'YOU' >appData>Local>Arma2/Amra2OA

Hope this helps

[Undeceived 392]

Should be in the same place in your documents.

Have you started the game once? Do that to create the file.

[CaptainBravo 0]

Thanks guys for the quick response. I see my profile "CaptainBravo" under other profiles. But can not find .ArmA2Profile ??

No Arma files come under appdata.

Any ideas?

[Leon86 13]

It's not in appdata, just documents>arma2

[NeMeSiS 11]

C:\Users\*yourwindowsusername*\Documents\ArmA 2

The OA files are also there.

[concurssi 11]

Have you enabled the option to see file extensions?

[cannonouscrash 12]

your .arma2profile is the notepad file called 'captainbravo'

Click the file once and at the bottom of the 'windows explorer' window, it should say .arma2profile

Hey presto, you found it

[CaptainBravo 0]

Ok clicking the mouse once at the file of "CaptainBravo" profile I see arma2profile at the bottom ..

However, I can not find the lines that have server settings such as:

skillFriendly=0.98500001;

skillEnemy=0.99500001;

precisionFriendly=0.5;

precisionEnemy=0.20499997;

I am sure I am missing something silly ,, but what??

Thanks for all the help guys.

[concurssi 11]

First, because you never answered me:

Have you enabled the option to see file extensions?

Second, are you looking under the difficulties sections?

[Zipper5 74]

However, I can not find the lines that have server settings...

Uh... Server settings are defined in the server.cfg file, no? :confused:

[CaptainBravo 0]

Hey Concurssi, Actually I am still learning my way through win 7 which is a bit different than xp.

Feeling like a total noob .. where is difficulties sections?

In XP it was under my other profile.

:) I meant have you enabled the option in Windows Explorer to show you the file extensions, since you didn't seem to see them.

And the difficulties thingy, it's in the .ArmA2OAProfile

Mine looks like this:
