wow a beta version everyday! not record yet.

previous record was also achieved by BIS, when we had 4 betas in 24hours.

maybe this time they'll achieve daily beta version for a whole week?

hehe, that's why we love BIS so much (the only game developer in the world to keep pleasing their community) :)

Jesus. With all the work you're doing on Arma 2 and OA, It's a wonder ANYTHING is getting done at all on Arma 3!

Those look like ARMA2 campaign fixes?

Have there been any fixes in the past to PMC coop campaign?

Me and a friend tried to play that without success due to numerous bugs.

PMC = OA, this is A2 beta (not OA).

Also it is recommended to refer to CIT tickets by # id or link to the ticket.

Is it possible to make it work with OA beta?

Like will pointing to the A2 beta folder in a mod folder string before the OA beta folder be enough?

As I see it's mainly about mission fixes

Hi, a true surprise to see a new patch for the ArmA2, is great, seriously; but... is good to fix the SP campaign ans missions, but what the ArmA2 needs is to get fixes on SP & Mp game breaking issues as the Aimpoint's Glass Bug or the M1911 A1 model. Personaly, those are the kind of bugs and issues that i want fixed on the ArmA2 more than the SP missions or the Campaign, but i've to say that every patch for the ArmA2 is wellcome. Let's C ya

Good question.

Within CO, A2 campaign and scenarios are run using A2 OA exe, not the A2 exe, correct? That seems like a good thing, as there are many more fixes in the OA exe. I assume that 1.60 OA AI changes will be applied to A2 missions within CO (once 1.60 is released)?

Hardly game-breaking issues wipman but I'm sure they will all be looked at in time.

Thank you big time BIS!

Manhattan mission is not launching for me at all. It loads some seconds and then pop-ups this:

Anyone else get Manhattan working with this beta?

Yep, Manhattan will not start for me either.

Also, Bitter Chill will start (replay), but all is black. Game time is 4pm. NVG do not work. Gear menu works. Have to abort mission.

Freedom Fighters starts correctly at 3am instead of 5:20am.

It is interesting playing with arma2.exe instead of arma2oa.exe (CO) as I did before. UAV (Razor 2 mission) screen has cool mini gps map at upper left which I don't remember, and there is only black hot and white hot thermal IR views, no non-IR view. Perhaps that was the way it always was in standalone A2?

Bitter Chill starts with black screen too, but you can hear sounds and hear your soldier walking which feels like this is not real Bitter Chill where mission starts by sitting in chair and waiting for the briefing to end.

Manhattan started to work when I copied missions.pbo, missions.pbo.bi.bisign and missions.pbo.bi2.bisign from ArmA 2\beta\addons to ArmA 2\AddOns (backupped the originals first) and then lauched game with "Launch Arma2 OA Beta Patch"-shortcut.

Bitter Chill has no changes in terms of dayTime or anything.

Maybe you simply need to adjust your brightness setting?

I mentioned time of day to note that it was daytime, and thus there should be light as at normal start of Bitter Chill (Razor at FOB Manhattan, sitting in chairs). My brightness settings are fine. Hanzu above had the same problem with Bitter Chill in this beta.

Normal conversations between Razor Team members do not occur.

Can anyone get Bitter Chill to start normally without a black screen + ambient sounds?

Choose Recruit difficulty and you will see in map screen before mission that whole FOB Manhattan hill is empty with other units and characters (Cpt. Shaftoe, Simmons etc.) and there is only Razor Team and one vehicle there.

By pressing M for map you get bright red map cursor, so no, it is not about display settings.

When you abort to end this all darkness mission and Suspend save happens you will see real view for a second or two just like everytime when you save and notice it is daytime.

This mission is lacking some files from .pbo or something. I also tested by copying all ARMA 2 beta 1.11.86688 files to my Arma2 directory (to the right places) and tested if it would work on 1.60 beta or 1.59 final, both had black screen.
