    Good to hear! I'm still learning to use Addon Sync myself. ;) And no...you do not need Addon Sync to join any server...it's just a helpful guide. By using Addon Sync...I can see that Suicidesquad.co.uk Server 2 only uses the original(Vanilla) Arma 2 and also the Beta patches(Mods: CA;beta).

    Although you know how to do all of this...it might help someone else so I'll write it up anyway...Up the top left in Addon Sync is Find Servers tab..click on that then click on Search. When it's finished finding the servers...Click on the Ping tab to find your local server. Pick a server then double click on it. When a smaller window pops up...on the right hand side is Server Info then look at the Mods that can be used and needed if someone changes a mission that utilises these mods.

    Example:

    Mods: CA;@cba;@ace;@acex;@ACEX_PLA;@duala

    CA...is Vanilla(Original) Arma 2

    @cba;@ace;@acex;@ACEX_PLA...All are ACE 2 Mod packs:

    @duala....Is an Island Mod.

    Also if you want ACE 2...in Addon Sync...click on Favourite Servers...click on Add Server...than add http://folders.ugaf-addons.co.uk/ACE_Server/modreopo.7z in Auto Config URL then click on Import Server. Down the bottom click on Save. There's a tab up near the top with Download Addons. Click that then click Check for addons then Download addons. This will update you to ACE 2 if you want it.

    I hope this helps you to enjoy Arma 2 more!

    Ps. I go to 2 different servers and one uses Battleye and the other does not have it. Either way it will/should update Battleye.

    I bet it will say that something has been deleted. You are being kicked off automatically because you don't have the required Mods. When you constantly join...you could be lagging the server a bit so they will ban you because of you persistence.

    Does the server have any Mods running...like ACE2 (Are they running ACE on that server) or using Islands like Duala?

    If you do not know if they are running Mods...download Addon Sync 2009 to check for addons that are needed for joining the server.

    In most cases you need Battleye and the 1.5 patch otherwise the server won't let you in. The Beta patch is optional. If you are joining a server with a red dot...you won't be able to join...green dots only!

    My problem is that I have 1.05 installed and it even says that I have 1.05 installed but it still won't let me install the Beta patches saying that I have 1.04 installed. I'll download from Stuns link and try again.

    Edit: Nope...still not working!

    Thanks champ for the quick reply!

    I looked at all 3 scenarios at Micro$oft but none of them applied to me so I deleted @ACE and started again. Ran updater in Administrator mode and all is well. Thanks again!
