Will there ever be a premium/supporters version available without ads and stuff that connects to the internet unless I want it to? Or will BIS buy your software at some point and integrate it into their games?

Maybe a bit of a blunt question, but I ask it anyway :)

We fully understand your question and we can safely say that the former is one of the things we're working on yes :)

I like using A2 maps in A3 along with the A3MP mod, but when I add one it only downloads the map and not the other required mods, such as bg_africa.

it wont let me select and download them manually, either. (well, it does when having A2 selected, but not with A3)

also contains islands like Lingor and CWR2 which contain units etc. also.... are these compatible?

The latest 1.13 beta (1.13.568.1) should support those too when A3MP is active, will double check this :)

Some addons will only be compatible if you run AllInArma im afraid, it is also a bit of a hit and miss here and there, we'll have to figure out what will work best.

@SB

could you look into Fabrizio's Bcombat mod on PWS?

he says

The problem was simply PwS is not allowing to install in compliance to instructions.

Hence it has been pulled, till bCombat will be fully packaged as pbo.

It's going to take some time for this, though.

is there anything that can be done?

[sickboy 13]

Yes you can install it manually for the time being until the addon stablizes

Be sure i've already discussed the matter with Sickboy.

There are some constraints on both PwS side and bCombat side, making publishing it on WithSix a bit problematic now.

Given this, i'd say it's better to wait for bCombat open beta phase closure before publishing it back onto PwS, in form of ordinary pbo.

And if I need to instal is on D:\ and not on C:\ ?

What would you like to install to D:\ exactly? The software, the mods, or?

[Guest]

The software, the mods are in my game's folder ( C:\ is a SSD).

Move the withSIX-Play.exe to where-ever you like and run it from there.

Hi Tyler,

Should be the combination of mods, or e.g it's not loading all involved games properly?

You'll have to enable some logs, or at least send us the Play withSIX logs and configuration files; http://getsatisfaction.withsix.com/withsix/topics/where_can_i_find_the_log_files

especially the parfile.txt, and also from the game the rpt file will help, thanks.

[Tyl3r99 41]

hmm is there a way i can contact you privately?

i can't reveal any information regarding what im playing at the moment and i notice the logs do mention what it is.

if you could pm me that would be brilliant mate

I'm having problems finding mods for ARMA 3 in PWS... In the left, under ARMA 3 logo, it says that there are 241 mods available. But it doesn't find any... None appears on the right side.

Any sugestions?

I allready went to settings and manually give it the correct game path and mod path.

[.kju 3245]

Select the mod browser (the left area mentioning the xxx mods) with a double click.

Next click the browse category in the upper parts of the library.

In general a good start is to watch one of the various video tutorials.

Can anyone point me in the right direction to making presets for servers as I'm not having much luck..

PWS is great btw Sickboy!

[dragonfire43560 27]

Specifically one with a ton of mods for single player only and one unmodded for playing online.

Is there a way to do this?

Actually better yet, If i install a bunch of mods using playwithsix; can I use playwithsix to play single play arma 3 and for multiplayer can I launch it normally from steam? Or will it all be tied together?
