Installing mods?...question

Recommended Posts

Hi...for days on end i'm trying to activate Ace2, Acex and CBa mod.

I've followed the instructions, made @ACE map inside the root map of arma2.

Inside the mod folder there's only one other folder named Addons. Inside that map I have my .pbo files.

But where do I have to place the /key (binkey file) that comes with some of those mods? Do you have to copy and paste the key inside the KEY map of the root map?

I also edited my shortcut so the game knows i'm using mods. Every online game I join I still get kicked for missing files and stuff...please help

:)

ACE2 mod is updated allmost daily now and it can be a problem when joining servers with a different version. The video posted by tankkiller is the way to do it to get the latest version downloaded onto your computer and then add the string on your shortcut

"C:\Program Files\Bohemia Interactive\ArmA 2\arma2.exe" -nosplash -mod=@CBA;@ACE;@ACEX

If you download the package by yourself you will need to place the pbo files and keys in respective folders (@cba/AddOns/>files<)

I followed the instructions and now it's working well.

Found a server, logged in, got the message that my version of Ace2 is old and that I need to upgrade to 01.186.

I thought the Six Updater automaticly updated to the latest files?

Usually its the other way around since the Six updater should give you the latest files, as far as i know.
