Hi all

I've got the steam version of ArmA2 + OA and BAC add-ons. Of course they are all in different folders (BAC is in the OA folder though).


So how does one get ALL of them to link up again? Using the desktop icon properties thingie?

Thanx!

:P

seems we're having the same issue my friend - been so long since I've played and edited the first ARMA - I've forgotten how to edit this one - and this one is STEAM version - so that makes it even more fun

if you have all 3 steam version games then:

is one way, of course if you use @folders then you'll need more shortcut add-ons.

The shortcut explained in the "Another short cut question" thread Magnum posted is a combined ops solution Belt. You shouldn't have a problem with that.

The Steam combined ops option is a cmd script called _runA2CO.cmd located in your OA folder.

I personally don't like the _runA2CO.cmd script and I don't like working with long shortcuts so I run a cmd file I create for myself. If you're interested, it's explained here ...

Hey Dirt!! Thanks fer the input. I actually used that magnums thing and it seemed to work. Additionally it seems that steam now 'sees' the combined ops thingie and lets me select that from it's start up menu.
