Vino3 10 Posted February 8, 2010 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? No, used to but it got a virus and is now defunct. Which is a real bugger. The error i get does mention 7z in the message so it may be a problem. Also, you mentioned a pattern between this error and winxp64. It makes me think that there may be a connection between the 7z that your extractor uses and winxp64. ??? totally ridiculous? or might there be a connection?

Another route to inspect would be a slowish virusscanner or *something* on your system that actually keeps files locked just after completing download, so 7z cannot read from the file. What virusscanner do you use? Edited February 8, 2010 by Yoma Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

horrgakx 1 Posted February 9, 2010 I am having trouble with the ACE updater simply not working and someone suggested using this one in order to download and install ACE for me. However can I ask a quick question about this addon please?... At first glance it looks to be online/multiplayer oriented - is this true? I don't have a server, nor do I play online, I play SP only - so is this 'Yoma addon sync' for me? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Alex72 1 Posted February 9, 2010 (edited) This is not an addon as such... This is an addon download/maintaining tool among other things. Install it and youll see it has an interface. There is information in the program when you start it. You add a server that hosts the addons you need - in this case Kellys Heroes (ACE) so search their thread in here. Click SEARCH button and set it to SHOW POSTS. Then put in "Kellys Heroes Ace" as search word. That should bring threads up where they post their server info. Yoma's addon sync can also be used for starting the game plus teamspeak etc. You can have several favourite servers loaded into it, and if the servers also use Yoma's tool then you can even see what addons those servers run, and also see if they use another version (updated or otherwise) right there in the tool. If they use another version you will see that and you can press 1 button to update your addons to the same version. This is why its good with ACE. When the tool is setup all you need to do is click "check for addons" and "download addons", and thus ACE or any other addons youve chosen will update. EDIT: Kellys Heroes mod list and server information: http://forums.bistudio.com/showpost.php?p=1561702&postcount=27 EDIT2: 1. Install Yoma's Addon Sync 2. Click NEW SERVER 3. add this URL (copy paste) to the "Auto config URL" box: http://www.kellys-heroes.eu/updater/ArmA2ACE-Repository/ArmA2ACE-Repo.7z 4. click IMPORT SERVER 5. click SAVE 6. Click "Download Addons" tab 7. Click "Check for addons" 8. Tick everything ACE related and CBA 9. Click "Download Addons" I think thats it. I use Six Updater but went through this to help...

I don't have a server, nor do I play online, I play SP only - so is this 'Yoma addon sync' for me? AddonSync can be used for two purposes. 1- MP - synchronizing your addons with the ones in your clan/fav server. 2- SP - Downloading/Updating Community Addons Mods. It is basicly downloading addons from a server that hosts/mirrors them. Note that the server you are using must update its repo regularly or you'll download old versions or won't be able to update to latest. If you'll use it for ACE ensure that the server you are using is updating regularly. KH is updating to every new release, some servers are updating once a week so use the one that suits your needs. So in BI Forums you can find links to many servers' repositories as well as couple of ones listed as default within the application. Simple instructions to get started -> http://www.kellys-heroes.eu/forum/viewtopic.php?f=40&t=3212#p27746 http://www.kellys-heroes.eu/updater/ArmA2ACE-Repository/ArmA2ACE-Repo.7z http://www.kellys-heroes.eu/updater/ArmA2Community-Repository/ArmA2Community-Repo.7z EDIT..lol Alex is hot :D..beat me to it Edited February 9, 2010 by Cross Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
horrgakx 1 Posted February 9, 2010 Thanks - it seems the best 'overall' tool to use in that case, sounds like it does everything for you. I'll give it a go later. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
horrgakx 1 Posted February 9, 2010 Just another quick question while I remember.... I currently use "ArmA2 Launcher" - a small window that scans my game dir for @directories and you can tick / untick the mods you want it to run. Will this tool replace that ArmA2 launcher or will both run together? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
cross 1 Posted February 9, 2010 YAS only downloads and creates modfolders in ArmA2 directory. Also it has a launcher in it for server listing and quick launch. It does not replace anything. You can use any method (shortcut/any other launcher) once you download/update mods, if you don't want to use the launcher in it. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
horrgakx 1 Posted February 9, 2010 (edited) I managed to get two servers in the top tab list, don't know how I did it though :) Perhaps it could be more intuitive? Downloading ACE now :) Albeit slowly, server must be quite busy. Update - Ticking the mod on the left window selects a load of them in the right window which it proceeds to download. Trouble is that a LOT of them returned (404) Not Found and have been skipped (97 of them so far).... Any ideas please?

horrgakx 1 Posted February 10, 2010 (edited) I tried again this morning to download the missing ACE files, but they're all still 404. I tried to launch ArmA2 anyway to see what happened but an error with CBA was thrown up, so I thought I'd use the Addon Installer to re-download CBA in case something had changed - well it started downloading... something, but the filename isn't part of CBA! When I checked the file list it has ticked about 600 items, none of which I've asked it to. Whats happening here please? (I restarted the software and the same issue exists).

cross 1 Posted February 10, 2010 (edited) It is a bug apparently..it tries to download even though you have not selected. Solution until fixed: Do not press "check for addons" after selecting mods on the left panel. To re-check right click on left panel and clear selection check for addons make your selection on the left panel (do not check addons after making selection) start download By the way why do you have ACE and Community Mods in the same list.. If you are using the "Event Server" DONT...it is not updated properly. You need to have separate ACE and Community servers Edited February 10, 2010 by Cross Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
horrgakx 1 Posted February 10, 2010 It is a bug apparently..it tries to download even though you have not selected. Thanks I'll try your work around. By the way why do you have ACE and Community Mods in the same list.. If you are using the "Event Server" DONT...it is not updated properly.You need to have separate ACE and Community servers I'm not sure what Event Server is; the ACE and community servers appear in different tabs above the main window and I can switch between them an they show different contents in the left when I do so. By the way, any idea on the many missing files? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
cross 1 Posted February 10, 2010 (edited) ah ok.. just saw ace mod on top of the community mods in your left panel .. in the image you linked there shouldnt be any missing files but will check again. By teh way you don't need to use community one if you only need ACE. ACE server has everything needed. Edited February 10, 2010 by Cross Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
