CameronMcDonald 146 Posted May 23, 2011 Same bug re: MG reloading animation (except when prone), and I mags are no longer disappearing from other small arms on the reload, except when prone. Also, is anyone else finding that smoke grenades are now thrown directly at the feet? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

gonk 0 Posted May 23, 2011 (edited) found and ran beta uninstaller now main exe works again. the previous beta was runnin good. this one not so lucky. ive heard complaint online bout frags, they are a bit tricky... must aim high. hmm. interesting..... I am now wondering since the beta is now editing the registry, do we now need to run the un-installer rather than just deleting the beta folder ? and does the un-installer remove the registry entries ?

megagoth1702 252 Posted May 24, 2011 Thanks for the info! I never had that before, never looked for info and I was hurried to get back into my mission. Having the game crash as squad leader just before a big maneuver SUCKS... Yeah so thats why I just rushed in here and asked for help. Email is en route.

Zipper5 74 Posted May 24, 2011 blackmamba, now those errors are because you are not using the beta patch correctly. The readme file for each beta points out that you must make the following two changes to your Arma 2 shortcut: Change the path to the .exe from the default one to the beta one, i.e. the new path in your shortcut's target line should read something like:"C:\Program Files\Bohemia Interactive\ArmA 2\Expansion\beta\arma2oa.exe" Add the beta mod parameters to the end of the shortcut's target line, something like this:-mod=Expansion\beta;Expansion\beta\expansion So, in the end, you should end up with your shortcut's target line looking something like this: "C:\Program Files\Bohemia Interactive\ArmA 2\Expansion\beta\arma2oa.exe" -mod=Expansion\beta;Expansion\beta\expansion Or, alternatively, you can go to your C:\Program Files\Bohemia Interactive\ArmA 2 folder and use the "Launch Arma2 OA Beta Patch" shortcut that is created there after installing a beta patch. Sickboy does have a point. Uninstalling and reinstalling the game is a lot more hassle than what you would have had to go through had you read the readme or done a search before taking action. ;) Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
