fkymplbo 5 Posted August 28, 2012 There will be a 7z patch for 2.61 install, but no full 2.62 release, as this is available using Six without us having to publish a whole new release with updated documentation etc, which ultimately would delay us further. Looks like everything is in good shape so hopefully see a release sometime this evening GMT. I can't breathe now and would wait for it in whole night...

ProfTournesol 956 Posted August 28, 2012 Little Annoying, that i have to install SIX, when i normal don't use it. But Looking forward to play this anyway... :-) Yep, but it's working flawlessly, i'm very happy with it : i even copied and pasted my old install of i44 2.61 from the ArmA2 folder to \mydocuments\arma2 where Six install mods by default, and six updated it nicely :) Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
katipo66 94 Posted August 28, 2012 Awesome, looking forward to this, thanks for all the hard work! :) Little Annoying, that i have to install SIX, when i normal don't use it. But Looking forward to play this anyway... :-) When you install and use it you"ll wonder why you hadn't done so earlier.. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
JSj 12 Posted August 28, 2012 to \mydocuments\arma2 where Six install mods by default Ok, so that's why this new program had to download all of my mods again instead of just updating them... well, I guess it wouldn't be a Six program if it didn't mess something up and force you to search for the settings to fix it manually. Was it really necessary to move the mods to a new directory? :confused: Anyway, looking forward to checking all the new I44 stuff out once I have fixed this problem.

But you can tell Six where to put the mods, my bad. I just thought it's convenient to keep that "Mydocument" folder for the mods. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
PacUK 1 Posted August 28, 2012 Was it really necessary to move the mods to a new directory? No you can always use the old directory if you click the ArmA2 settings tab, and use the 'Mods Installation Path (advanced)' option to direct them elsewhere, documents is just the recommended place by BI which I think passed most people by (I definitely wasn't aware of it myself, thanks Six for pointing it out lol).

JSj 12 Posted August 28, 2012 But you can tell Six where to put the mods, my bad. I just thought it's convenient to keep that "Mydocument" folder for the mods. Yes, I found that setting after looking for it. I do NOT want to keep my mods in the My documents folder (because of space and SSD vs regular hard drive reasons), so I was not happy that the default location had been changed. And I'm pretty sure that most people will not find this setting when first using the program, thus making them download all the mods again, and now have two sets taking up space on their hard drives. But this is not the right thread for this discussion, as it's not related to I44 (well, other than this new program apparently being the only way to get I44).

PacUK 1 Posted August 28, 2012 I don't believe so, you can update your existing install with Play withSix though, just be sure to point it to the right place (see above^). Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Wiki 1558 Posted August 28, 2012 just to make things clear: is it a patch or is it a full version? because I've read that it is a patch, but on armaholic, the file is 2.3 Gb, and it's just written that only CBA is needed, not Ivasion1944 v2.61. so, if I want the 2.62, do I just download on armaholic, or do I download the 2.61 and the patch here?

Archer337 8 Posted August 28, 2012 Hey guys. Just recently downloaded the patch for Invasion 1944 and I've just found a small bug already. I'm not sure if your aware of this problem either. But anyway. I've just gone into Mission editor and I've just checked out afew things. And this came to my attention, a unit from the British side, which follows from this path. Side: Bluefor Faction: [i44] British Army Class: Men - Airborne Unit: Commando It seems as if the body is `Missing` which results to this. http://steamcommunity.com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=92524808&insideModal=1 But anyway, hopefully this helps out.

fkymplbo 5 Posted August 28, 2012 I think it must be an issue of hidden selection in the config file. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
PacUK 1 Posted August 28, 2012 2.62 is a patch, it requires 2.60 patched to 2.61 already. This is why we are pushing for Play withSix as the main source of downloads as it avoids patch confusion by keeping you up to date and making it much easier to get fixes out without people having to track forum threads of news releases for the latest versions. And this came to my attention... Not actually a bug, just a unit we were meant to hide from the editor list, its for the campaign system Macolik has been toying with, allowing users to customise their appearance, so it appears invisible when nothings set on. t6mmy4XSLFY Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
