You can simply run the exe from the beta folder, working dirs and mod folders need to be correctly setup (you can use preinstalled betashortcut for this as well).

SolidSnake-(SNK) 0 Posted December 24, 2008 Thanx for replying, i love this game. I have read the readme, but i still dont understand. I have put the ARMA_BETAPATCH_115.exe in D:\Arma witch i have arma and QG installed in and it doesent work when i try to run it. I have also tryed puting it in a folder called Beta. I have used beta patch before and it installed with no problem then. But i have a clean install of arma now with no previous beta installed, must i have that? Another question Maruk if you reply to this. When making Arma, why did you make it so missions we make are saved on C: and in my documents. It's anoying, I want it under Arma folder like it was in Ofp. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

(specially in missions where we use a lot of non ArmA standard addons and players without the addons tryed to connect stoped the server allmost before 1.15, that's completey gone). Well done. Driving motorbikes is finally fixed, parachute bug also. We haven't encountered any crash yet (beside the fixed JIP lag that is the most important fix). Thank you again, BIS. Xeno Wootness!!! Nice job BIS!! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
xxbbcc 6 Posted December 25, 2008 Thank you very much everyone at BIS for this patch - very nice surprise indeed. While it would've been better to have the game in this shape from the beginning, I appreciate all the work that you did to turn ArmA into the great game it is now. Merry Christmas!

I agree that MS directive to stuff everything in "My Documents" is really annoying but BIS already thought of that. If you use the "-profiles" command line parameter you can move the userprofiles/missionfiles where ever you want. Mine looks like... Â -profiles=d:\games\armeda~1\ Another good one is the "-bepath" command line parameter. More information here: http://community.bistudio.com/wiki/ArmA:_Startup_Parameters Regarding the 1.15 Beta I've only had limited time with it so far but as already mention by several others I really hope that the new Zoom function is reverted back to how it was in previous versions so I can have a wide FOV while flying helis etc. /KC Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Vultar 0 Posted December 25, 2008 Seems good, MP looks fixed. I have experienced a performance drop but I think that was my fault. Question to BIS. Could you guys please upgrade Fov instead of making it worse? xD Let's say... Something with very low zoom, to make scopes and binoculars useful. Currently there is no pro of using binoculars.... too bad for military sim Anyways, BIS, you're the only one. Thanks. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Vultar 0 Posted December 25, 2008 Update. I checked again now with everything as it was on 1.14 then installed 1.15. I must say that I have same fps on 3,5k VD (1.15) like I had on 500 VD (1.14). (Tested on Rahmadi) Amazing. Also for me FOV is no longer an issue. Thanks to Babyalien83. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

xxbbcc 6 Posted December 26, 2008 To all with FOV issues: I'm using the unafov 1.1 addon and I don't seem to have any FOV issues after 1.15. (I'm using the 1.08 FOV values.) Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

dr_eyeball 16 Posted December 26, 2008 [b said: Quote[/b] ]5264 Â - Fixed: Only relative path is now supported in commands: loadFile, exec, execVM, execFSM, preprocessFile, preprocessFileLineNumbers, kbAddTopic I don't suppose the "#include" command was/could have been fixed at the same time to bring it inline with the same path handling of these commands?
