The 1.60 patch is finally out of dev branch and on stable.

Unfortunately, with this release they borked addons maps (skybox is all messed up). So, everything works okay on the default maps though. I understand the CUP developers are already implementing a fix. Don't know about the other map makers.

I would imagine we'll have a big SHQ mod download next week to update everything.

Thankfully the new lighting can be added to islands with a quick config addon, so we wont see borked lighting when we next play yep

Unsung has a patch coming soon as well. Razorback has already updated the maps to work.

Just tried it out. New graphics are major improvement (just the more realistic sky colour alone goes a long way). More importantly: WORKING CCIP for bombs, guns and rockets. I just tested it. They all work!

Server is now updated and running for those who want to test their setup and the new 1.60 stuff.

I'll check around 8pm Eastern to see if anybody's online, and verify that the server is running OK.

The UNSUNG team has released the patch for the Bravo release that fixes the maps.

http://server.elite-warriors.co.uk/eggbeast/projects/uns/UNSUNG_3.0b-3.1b_Patch.rar.torrent

If a direct link shows up, I'll post it.

I just updated Arma 3. I now get this error - "Data File to short E\games\steam\steam apps\common\Arma3\
Mods\Red_Hammer_Studios - Russians\Addons\rhs_ss21.pbo expected 954956241 B got 72373070 B" then Arma crashes.

I checked this and it ran ok on Friday. Also I got out the original that I downloaded many weeks ago and I got the same error. Would this update include something from Red Hammer Studios ?

Meat told me that it's separate from the Mod Pack and that's why it's not in the workshop, because it isn't likely to change often. But it's looking for a bigger file than the original that we use, as in possibly a new version of the file ?

How many Kb is the file you have, Prof? I'll compare with the file in my install and report back.

Is "954956241 B" in Bytes perchance?

In any event, I think the RHS stuff was updated recently. Anybody confirm that? We have the batch file, so if we run it, it should redownload corrupted stuff, no? It will also download the update. Maybe that will fix the issue.

70,677 KB. which is close to what it said it "gets" not what it expects.

When I ran that batch file, it never seemed to do anything. I ended up getting the RHS stuff via torrent.

And it took forever.

Meat, should we run the batch file and download RHS again ? I'm afraid we may get new files and that may cause problems for the SimHQ Mod ?

Prof after running the RHS updater, my file is reporting 70,611 KB.

Yes, appears lots of updated files. Their batch file does use the -m parameter, which should only download changed files. This can be observed verifying the timestamps in the shell window.

If in doubt (or if you dont want to play with bat files) you can always download the full mods again from armaholic
