    Hey great mod Robert, really like the weapons!!

    I'm a bit noobish when it comes to the editor, and wondered if there was a page with a few quick references to quickly custom outfit units, trying to have a couple of German SpecOps take names with rocket launchers and your rifles. Would be awesome great to find a list of custom armaments I can paste into the init section.

    Yes, I am well aware that I can launch Combined Operations from Steam.

    Arma 2 Path: "C:\Program Files\Bohemia Interactive\ArmA 2\arma2.exe"

    Arma 2 OA Parth: "C:\Program Files\Steam\steamapps\common\arma 2 operation arrowhead\ArmA2OA.exe"

    After Follow SpyderPB6's instruction my ARMA2OA short-cut (desktop) looks like this:

    "C:\Program Files\Steam\steamapps\common\arma 2 operation arrowhead\ArmA2OA.exe" -nosplash "-mod=C:\Program Files\Bohemia Interactive\ArmA 2\arma2.exe;C:\Program Files\Steam\steamapps\common\arma 2 operation arrowhead\EXPANSION;@CBA_OA"

    After having done that, ARMA 2 was no longer ticked when I launched the game, OA and CBA_OA were.

    "Y:\ProgramFiles(X86)\steamapps\common\arma 2 operation arrowhead\ArmA2OA.exe" "-mod=Y:\ProgramFiles(X86)\steamapps\common\arma2;Y:\ProgramFiles(X86)\steamapps\common\arma 2 operation arrowhead\EXPANSION;@CBA;@ACE;@ACEX;@ACEX_SM"

    That's it, should work.

    Cheers,

    Mike.

    I've tried your method again Mike and this time I got a bit further, however, when checking the Expansion list, Arma 2 OA and CBA_OA are ticked (got CBA working, apparently) but ARMA 2 is unticked... Can't tick it either (thus not enable it)...

    Any help would be appreciated

    When all is said and done it will resemble mine below.

    "Y:\ProgramFiles(X86)\steamapps\common\arma 2 operation arrowhead\ArmA2OA.exe" "-mod=Y:\ProgramFiles(X86)\steamapps\common\arma2;Y:\ProgramFiles(X86)\steamapps\common\arma 2 operation arrowhead\EXPANSION;@CBA;@ACE;@ACEX;@ACEX_SM"

    Mike.

    So I tried this trick but, again, I have a retail version of Arma 2 and bought Operation Arrowhead from Steam.

    When I tried your move and clicked on the shortcut, I got an error message:

    "Error compiling Pixel Shader PSSpecularAlpha:0"

    Anyway, I noticed you linked your mods to the EXPANSIONS folder in Arma OA... Is that where I'm supposed to deposit them?

    Thanks for the feedback so far,

    Shock

    I'm having trouble, while playing Combined Operations, to activate any other mods that I would like to use.

    While playing AO or Arma 2 alone, I can see and activate any of my mods, but when launching Combined Operations, this list of expansions does not appear.

    I bought Arma 2 German Version Retail, updated it to 1.07, and then bought AO via Steam.

    I can play the Vanilla game fine, and still have access to both my addons that I place at either AO or Arma 2 Addon folders.

    Can someone please help me out
