-mod launch parameter...

Recommended Posts

I just found a problem with -mod=xxx parameter.

If you use that for a sound pack per example , the game will not use all 3rdparty addons localized in /ArmA/Addons mains folder.

i imagine i must copy past all addons in my mod folder... Have i another way ?

There should not be any 3rd party addons in the arma\addons folder.

The switch -mod= calls the program's attention to a directory located inside the ArmA directory. In that way, -mod=@ModWarSound calls the program to look in ArmA\@ModWarSound. If you want to add 3rd party addons, create a directory, like ArmA\@3rdpartyaddons\AddOns and dump them in there. Then use the switch -mod=@3rdpartyaddons.

it doesnt works ....

you can't cumulate 2 mod folder. that means i can't play with addons & custom sounds without touch directly signed files ...

If it doesn't work, you are doing something wrong, or you're trying to load conflicting addons. Do not touch the BIS signed files.

i can't even place my misc addons in @modwarsound for use them at same time.

they arent in my unit list ! and i didnt do something wrong.

here my launch parameter :

"-mod=@ModWarSound;@miscadds"

/miscadds/AddOns/ contain all my favourite addons.

but there is nothing in my unit list .

If i put "-mod=@miscadds" , i can use my addons. so what's your idea ? whistle.gif

There must be a space before the -.

If you don`t let the space, it will not work.

you have @miscadds in the value of -mod parameter, BUT then you wrote that the directory is named "/miscadds/AddOns/" and not "/@miscadds/AddOns/".

i give that in example ...

in fact , my folder was @addons , and launch parameter was good.

it's related to modwar stuff itself.
