How do i disable the sounds that annoys me to the brink of insanity by telling me stuff i don't need to hear? I have looked in the settings but i cant find the button that disables it.

In next version you'll be able to disable the sounds.

If that annoys you "to the brink of insanity" then i hope you don't live in a city :-) or at least in my city.

Firstly, excellent work Yoma!

Not sure if anyone else has asked this already - any chance you can change the Upload / Build Repository to support multiple processes? Nothing worse than sitting there waiting for it to compress stuff and have 7 cores sitting around doing nothing! :)

Very little chance of this happening. (Would be a tad too bugprone and the repo is kind of important ;-) )

Press F1 inside the tool.

That might get you started!

I didn't see your edit:-)

Just found out another use for the tool showing signatures reported by GameSpy.

If you launch your server and people can't connect, you may have sig's enabled but forgot to put the keys for the addons in the keys folder.

If you check your server with my tool it now shows the signatures that are being used.

Just make a profile ingame, it will then be selectable inside the tool. In one of the patches BIS has changed profile name that uses the same "name" as your windows login to "system"...

My problem: Random files from the Yomas addonsync give me errors when they finish downloading. If i try and play it says that it is expecting a different file size and does not continue. The same 4-5 files are always highlighted blue and it always says they have been "changed".

It has resorted to, when finished downloading, give an error box popup but no text. I tried using kellys heroes but that did it aswell. I deleted all the mods and started again but that didnt work. I reinstalled yomasync but that didnt work. I have completely run out of ideas.

Is there a way to schedule mod file updates? I'd love to be able to schedule my ACE update for my off-peak time.

Why not script Sixupdater?

-Make sure you don't start Arma while downloading

-Are you using WinXP64?

-Go to settings and untick "use cache", then try downloading the repo.

It will work slower but might solve the problem.

I can't even begin to comprehend what you mean.

Sixupdater never worked for me, so AddonSync; hence my question.

I am not starting arma 2 while downloading.

I am using Windows XP 64 Bit

I have unticked "use md5 cache" (hope thats the right one)

Problem still exists...

Ok at the moment it is not possible. I have no real plans on implementing it.

The "use password" box is only for client side (it set's the client password, not the server password)!

I think you'll have to edit some config file to actually launch an arma server passworded.

For client side usage (for connecting to servers), you just need to set the password on the server properties (game server, password). There is no need to use the custom argument for setting a password.

Also the tool will automatically check the use password box if the server is currently using a password.

I seem to have other users experiencing the same issue, and a common factor seems to be XP 64bit.

I'll try to do some tests in a VMWare soon.

is there a way to stop addonsync from giving the error message so i can go thru in the morning and download the buggered files manually? Rather than staying up all night waiting for each error.

I'm not encountering the error you are suffering from (if you're talking about the error you mention in the ACE forum)

There seems to be a problem with certain versions of 7z and i'll upgrade it in next version. Maybe this will solve your problem. You could also try to use a different updater if mine doesn't work for you.

Do you have any other system at home e.g. a winxp32 system where you could test the download on?
