In the mod library there is an "updates" section that lists all mods that need updating.

To update all mods in one go, instead of one by one, you can create a collection that contains all of them and then use the install/update button the bottom left.

Hi, i'm using 1.15.613.1 version and all my ArmA2 mods (well, most of) aren't recongized anymore by the utility (can't update them, they are tagged as unknown). They were installed using PwS though. Any idea ?

Great work! But ....

The SU repositories are being deleted and the linux server can't download now a lot of mods because uses rsync.

If the server don't actualize mod the client can't use them.

It still doesn't recognize my mods in ArmA2, despite those mods being installed (from the beginning) in the correct directory. To be more precise, it sees them but tag them as "not installed".

If the directories are set correctly in the settings of the game in PwS, then not installed probably means not yet converted to Synq.

Either from old SixRsync format, or from classical download format. So PwS cannot confirm the validity of the installation.

I suppose we should add a Unrecognized state, or something else that would convey this somehow?

Dunno, i downloaded all of them with PwS though...Shall i delete them all and let PwS download them again (not bandwith limit in France :) ) ?

No need to delete, that would be a waste of bandwidth and time I think. Just run Install action and see if they get properly converted this time ;)

Are they in the game directory or in the mod directory btw?

Hallo Sickboy

I have recently switched to steam just to get new update (1.63) and since than i am unable to get my PwS start and running. On steam i got Arma X and my Arma 2 it is installed in 2 separate folders, Arma 2 and Arma 2 Operation Arrowhead. Normally when i start OA in Steam i basically running COmbined.

So problem is i am unable to run Combined Operations in PwS. I can run Arma 2 or OA but cant figure how to run them bout together. When i run OA in PwS it starts only Operation Arrowhead, BAF and PMC. I need help mate.
