I am having trouble with MH-9 skins on my mission I am able to add them to my helo using this setobjecttexture [0,"skins\heli_light_01_ext_wasp_co.paa"];. That works fine but as soon as it respawns I lose my skin I know there is a way to have it stick because I have seen them used in a public server. Same goes for the countermeasures I add them using this addweapon "CMFlareLauncher"; this addmagazine "120Rnd_CMFlare_Chaff_Magazine"; but they are gone after respawn. Any help would be great.

It does work I am able to have the bird spawn with the flares but like I said keeping them is the hard part lol.

When I do it this way (copy and pasted what you posted) it doesn't load the skin/flares before or after respawn.

So I was trying to change something in the game files and couldn't find what I was looking for. So I said forget it and went to play but somehow I messed something up when I go to play mutiplayer (wasteland) it will not let me join a game it says "You cannot play/edit this mission it is dependent on downloadable content that has been deleted. Chernarus, caweapons_ammoboxes, CAWater, cawater2_fishing-boat." When I went to my expansions I noticed all my maps and my sound mods were missing. But when I look at the files they are still there so i have no idea what is going on. If you guys could help me out that would be great im new to PC gaming and Arma 2 is pretty much the only game I play.

Ok I was able to get it fixed there was a problem with the steam launch options.

I have reinstalled twice.

I was trying to do the input lag fix GPU_MaxFramesAhead=1 I couldn't find it so I ran arma2oa.cfg changed it then saved. So now my background has changed So when I launch the game from steam that is what I get ^^ But if I launch it from _runA2CO my extra maps are there but my JSRS does not show up. Also I don't know what happened but my server browser works now? Before it didn't want to show me all the severs I would have to refresh multiple times to find a sever I was just playing in and it only shown maybe 5 or 10 servers with players in them. Now the server browser is full also it now shows dayz before it never did.
