danjoo 11 Posted July 25, 2016 Hi there,So today i go to log onto arma only to become infuriated because steam workshop is forcing me to redownload 34GB of mods. Originally all my mods were from the workshop and in the default directory. Now, steam has created a hidden folder called !workshop and moved every single mod there. This is fine, i can see all the files there. What is annoying me is that it is now redownloading every single one! WHY? I can see all the files that were previously there but it is trying to completely re download them all? Does anyone have a fix? I live in Australia and redownloading everything wtih our crappy internet isn't really an option Image Links https://gyazo.com/826bacb17696346a655f0319f3081dbehttps://gyazo.com/da1dd1354a4892143022211639398a7fhttps://gyazo.com/bc0f092e0c172243ffe726610af8ab14 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
HeroesandvillainsOS 1504 Posted July 25, 2016 I reported this exact problem maybe 6-8 months ago. The BIS Devs actually wrote a program for me to run but I could not duplicate it so at least with my ticket, it was never fixed. This has happened to me twice. Both times, every single one of my mods got corrupted because of this so I had to download them ALL again. Whatever you do, let it do its thing. If you try to stop the download, you will screw yourself. 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Georg_Ravioli 46 Posted July 26, 2016 I've come across a similar problem regarding the workshop. Please let me know if this should be in a separate thread. I recently downloaded a bunch of addons and missions, including Isla Abramia. While configuring ArmA3Sync, I noticed that there were three (3) Isla Abramia folders ("@Isla Abramia 1.3", "@Isla Abramia 1.66", and "@Isla Abramia 1.7"). I noticed that only 1.7 was actually in the Steam Workshop, so I decided to delete the other folders. After doing that, my Steam Downloads interface started flickering with "Arma 3 - Workshop Content". Image Links: https://gyazo.com/8b46d9c35c102f3d03309ea5b4b9c84e Opening up Arma 3 Launcher and clicking "Repair" on Isla Abramia 1.7 does nothing, and neither does restarting Steam. Do I need to restart my computer or redownload Arma or something? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
danjoo 11 Posted July 26, 2016 Thanks for your responses guys. This is the second time its happened to me. As for your problem @Georg_Ravioli. Im not sure how to fix it. You could try unsubscribing to 1.7 in the workshop and resubscribing? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

HeroesandvillainsOS 1504 Posted July 29, 2016 Try opening a ticket and see if maybe you'll have better luck than I did. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
