    or just do

    _runA2CO.cmd "-nosplash" "-cpucount=4" "-exThreads=7" "-mod=@KHPackOA"

    I'm trying to create a shortcut for Combined Operations. I'm using steam for both and tried this method. I think I am doing something wrong. I put 

    _runA2CO.cmd "-nosplash"

    in my shortcut target line. That didn't work. I also put that in the steam launch options and created a shortcut. That didn't work either. Where do I put the above command?

    When I run _runA2CO.cmd from my OA folder it loads combined operations up. I'm just trying to make it easier with a shortcut and no splash.

    Had the same problem.

    Fixed it by placing the correct window size into:

    \My Documents\ArmA 2\Arma2OA.cfg

    Windowed=1;
Resolution_W=1919;
Resolution_H=1149;
winX=0;
winY=23;
winW=1919;
winH=1149;
winDefW=1919;
winDefH=1149;
Render_W=1919;
Render_H=1149;

    SHK again you come to my rescue. I need to send you a 12 pack

    Add your mod to the Steam Arma2 OA folder.

    Locate the _runA2CO.cmd from the fix posted by Dwarden...

    Edit the file.

    Change this line:

    "%ARMA2OAPATH%\ARMA2OA.exe" "-mod=%ARMA2PATH%;%ARMA2OAPATH%\EXPANSION"

    To something like:

    "%ARMA2OAPATH%\ARMA2OA.exe" "-mod=%ARMA2PATH%;%ARMA2OAPATH%\EXPANSION;@CBA;@WHATEVER"

    Now OA will load with your addons, but they will not be visible in "Expansions" in the main menu.

    Thank you much sir. This worked perfect for me.

    Now if I could find out how to not launch steam when I use my arma shortcut

    Basically what is does is to load both arma2 and OA as mods to the OA .exe-file. So it's quite simple to do it yourself.

    Say you have arma2 in c:\program files\bohemia interactive\arma 2\ and OA in c:\program files\steam\common\steamapps\arma 2 operation arrowhead\

    Then what you do is to go to the folder where OA is (as above). Right-click on arma2OA.exe and choose "send-to desktop (create shortcut)". Now you should have a shortcut on the desktop. Right-click the shortcut and choose properties.

    Add this line after arma2oa.exe in the target box:

    operation arrowhead\EXPANSION"

    Then start OA from your new shortcut and verify that you can see arma2 by choosing "expansions" in the menu, or fire up the editor and see that you can choose utes and chernarus among the maps from OA.

    ...basically just like loading whatever mod you are using. The important thing for when using paths with spaces is to start with a " before -mod= and end the line with a "

    Dwardens script does it for you, but this is how it's done manually.

    Cheers.

    I tried to do this but it does not let me put all that in. Like I am putting to much text in. Im trying to put this in

    "C:\Program Files (x86)\Steam\SteamApps\common\arma 2 operation arrowhead\ArmA2OA.exe" -noSplash -window -x=1920 -y=1080 "-mod=c:\program files\bohemia interactive\arma 2;c:\program files\steam\common\steamapps\arma 2 operation arrowhead\EXPANSION"
