Won't Save settings

Recommended Posts

Every time I exit the game I seem to loose my configuration settings. My Documents folder is hosted on a separate server, but the computer has full read/write access. Any thoughts?

Check the read/write permissions on the actual arma.fg file under mydocs\arma2.

Seems like an obvious thing but one of the tweaks suggests editing that file then making it read only to prevent the game from changing the settings.

Other than that, the problem could happen if the hosting computer is Vista or Win 7. Check under the network settings on the host and disable password protected sharing to see if that fixes it.

In my case the read/write access was there, but the server is a Win7 RC machine and there must be some issues accessing the My Docs folder from Arma. I'm not sure why, and I can't see any issue, but anyway, you can fix this by adding this tag to the shortcut which will redefine the save location to a local drive.

-profiles=C:\ArmA2\Profiles
