A3 Launcher [ALPHA] v1.2.0.0

[romario14 10]

Thanks's headswe for your launcher, it's a great idea to use one program for launch both games.

But I have one problem. I use the latest 1.2.0.0 version and when I launch arma2 OA (steam version) the installed latest beta-patch doesn't working. Version of the launched game is 1.62.95248 during installed beta-patch 104648. No matters is the "Beta?" setting checked or unchecked.

Arma2 path in settings :

C:\Program Files\SteamGames\SteamApps\common\Arma 2

Arma2OA path:

C:\Program Files\SteamGames\SteamApps\common\Arma 2 Operation Arrowhead

So I don't know how to solve the problem.

Headswe thank you for the update.

Maybe it's my fall somewhere:confused:

I'm unsure what you are hinting at?.

Is there vanilla A2 launching with beta event when the profile is set not too?

Or is there something else going on?

I'd rather not release the source. I'd assume we had have 400 copies of it in a few days.

The only connections the launcher is to my own personal web server where it will read one file containing the current version number.

While I understand you want to sit on the source code, I also understand peoples security concerns.

Maybe you should detail a little better what the program is doing (re data in-outs) so users can verify against connections its making.

Nice work anyhow! GJ

Downloads the full text contents of that file.

Does anyone know why the mods show-up twice in the mod list, and that you have to add both to activate them?launcher

Great launcher by the way!

Yes- its because mods can be placed the usual way- in the arma directory and now, in 'mydocuments' (lol dont quote me on the 'mydocuments' - but there is another place)

So for example:- you can place mods the usual way and something like 'Play with Six' put the mods in the 'other' place.

None of the mods I put in my ArmA 3 directory were placed there by Play with Six. I placed all of them manually and I checked the MyDocuments or the other folder for mods but there were none.

[[aps]gnat 28]

If you use Play with Six at all, then its very likely they are somewhere in MyDocuments

I use Play with Six, but I thought that would only affect your ArmA II game. I looked in My Documents and I don't see any mod folders in there.

Do you have combined A2/A3?

Are you sure you haven't added any additional paths to the Additional Addon folders in settings?

[meshcarver 12]

Sometimes this is crashing out on loading (Not Responding...) then other times it works fine... normally every other attempt..?

Anyone else have this problem?

[starky396 1]

I'm having a problem in which the the Arma 3 process starts for about 3 seconds and then quits without warning. Any fix for this?
