hi there, i dont know if this problem already occured by someone, but would be fine to get a solution/advice. I've got ArmA2 borrowed from a friend of mine (understand the retailbox one) played it and kept the config/save content. Yesterday i bought my own one from steam, all s ok i can browse the menu and all that crapp but when i try to continue in campain i get CTD with some "arma2 has been generating errors and will be closed blablabla" thing. First i though the last save is corrupted or whatnot so reverted to save before the last one .... and got the same crap .... CTD. So my question is like follows. Its possible that Retail config/saves (since those were saved on lower version of patch - at that time 1.04 wasnt developed yet so it was patched with 1.02) are not backwards compatible with the steam actual 1.04 version?
