How do you get to dev branch these days then?

Recommended Posts

I am retarded, but these forums are not easy to use.

There are 9 stickied threads... :rolleyes:

Some of them have to do with Battleye... There is a battleye forum? Is it helpful (or infact distracting) to have these displayed in every forum?

I resolved my issue, it was because i am retarded, but i stand by my complaint...

I hope at the very least my superfluously ironic elucidation highlights the transparency of this conundrum.

Ha to be honest, i have had to show a lot of Arma players... vets... how to do this. in fact none of them were even aware that there was such a thing. maybe a gentle reminder on the launcher, "hey wanna come see all the cool upcoming features , sounds , improvements and help with feedback ... come join on Dev branch. maybe a way to launch Dev branch from the arma launcher or place there clearer instructions for the average beer drinking man.

But still never said how to select it :p

Click Steam > Library > right mouse click on ArmA 3 and select properties > click the 'betas' tab > change the drop down tab to select 'developement - Developement Build' (see screen shot http://i.imgur.com/JwLynmX.png )

That's it, wait while it downloads the different files :)

Sigh,

Yeah i know that's how you do it lads...

..So i did that, but it wouldnt let me click the dropdown... so i (as usual) started to rage-the-fuck-out... and i thought in my moment of insanity:

"Ah perhaps they have kind of 'locked it away' to keep retards like myself from hurting themselves"

..So i thought i needed to put in a code, like you do to get access to the legacy builds.

..The truth of the matter is (the punchline) is that i was alt-tabbed out of the game anyway, and had the launcher running too... So, obviously steam wouldnt let me change build whilst the game is actually running.

lmao, yep that'll do it, also even having the launcher open will block you :)
