    I would like to explain in detail as to what I did to solve this. That way if someone is having the same problem they can use this as a reference.

    The file that was giving me problems was the takistan_data_layers. I navigated to the folder where the game downloaded to and went to the exact folder where the file was/is. C:\Users\Public\Documents\Amazon Games & Software\ARMAArrowhead\OperationArrowhead\Addons.

    I found the file and noticed that it was Gzip file. So it was named; takistan_data_layers.pbo.gz I copied it over to my documents and when I tried to extract it I got a message from WinRaR telling me that it was corrupt. So what I did was ask Günter to send me his file that he had. Now keep in mind that the file was ONLY the .pbo AND it was NOT in a folder. So the .pbo was zipped only.

    I zipped up the file that Günter sent and named the zipped file; takistan_data_layers.pbo and moved it over where the corrupt one came out of: C:\Users\Public\Documents\Amazon Games & Software\ARMAArrowhead\OperationArrowhead\Addons. I didn't have to name the file ending with the .gz because WinRAR "associates" that paticular file as a .gz so even though I used WinRar and zipped it up as a .rar, all I had to do was change the ending of the zipped file from .rar to .pbo. So please pay close attention to detail as it needs to be identical

    I launched the installer and it worked. So basically I replaced the corrupt file with another one. If someone is having a similar issue, try this but make sure you backup the original file(s).

    TY Encrypted_God,this fixed my problem. Much Appreciated !! :bounce3:

    Ok,I tried putting this into the shortcut target line:

    "C:\Program Files\Steam\steamapps\common\arma 2\arma2.exe"-mod=@CBA;@ACE;@ACEX;@ACE_PLA;@ACEX_SM -nosplash -world=empty

    and I keep getting:

    The name "C:\Program Files\Steam\steamapps\common\arma 2\arma2.exe"-mod=@CBA;@ACE;@ACEX;@ACE_PLA;@ACEX_SM -nosplash -world=empty specified is not valid,Make sure the path and file name is correct.

    but I can't see any problems with it Path and all the mods are there.:mad:

    I just copy pasted ACE 2 into addons folder and I got this error (Include file x\cba\addons\main\script_macros_common.hpp not found.)

    I just copy pasted because I cannot figure out how to install the damn mod, and I dont have clue what all the Download this for that and install the loader to route it to that folder.. crap means so I just copied it.

    Is there a way to fix that error?
