MancSpartan 10 Posted February 24, 2010 Hiya Guys I was wondering if someone could help me please? Im trying, for the first time, to install some addons on to my system. Ive placed all the pbo etc files into the appropriate folders, but my problem arises when Im trying to edit the target line in my shortcut. Ive edited it to read - "C:\Program Files\Bohemia Interactive\ArmA 2\arma2.exe -mod=MyAddons" But when I click apply I get an error message saying that - "the name specified in the target box is not valid. Make sure the path and the file name are correct." Im obviously doing something wrong, can you help please? Cheers Spartan Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Yoma 0 Posted February 25, 2010 Besides that you could use one of the many launchers out there. Addonsync will do the trick and get you some addons as well. It will also offer a quick customisable way to look for servers. There are many usefull tools out there, just pick whatever you like. You'll basically be able to avoid having to manually create lots of shortcuts. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
