    Ottakaa käyttöön “expansions” luettelosta vain nämä: arma 2, fdf mod, expansions ja kaikkia joissa lukee (lite)

    i’ve that combined package from steam. When i set that launch option, it removes arma 2 from extensions and FDF campaign is not available either. I installed the game on arma2 folder like instructions say. What’s the problem?

    Colder or hotter interior temps could cause harm to the public who frequent
    the buildings. Next, check out the services hours of operation, availability, and emergency services.
    Regular maintenance and prompt HVAC repair will keep your
    system working efficiently for long and consequently it would help you reduce
    your energy bills.

    Hello! This is kind of off topic but I need some help from an established
    blog. Is it very difficult to set up your own blog?
    I’m not very techincal but I can figure things out pretty quick. I’m thinking about creating my own but I’m not sure where to begin. Do you have any points or suggestions? Many thanks

    Gday! It appears as though we both have a interest
    for the same thing. Your blog, “FDF Mod : FDFmod 1.0 for Arma 2” and mine are
    very similar. Have you ever considered authoring
    a guest write-up for a similar blog? It will surely help gain
    exposure to your website (my website recieves
    a lot of traffic). If you might be interested, email me at: adam-honeycutt@t-online.

    de. Thank you

    I did everything and i cant find “launch arma 2: combined operations” when i right click on arma oa (steam). how do i fix this or is there anyway i can load this mod loader another way?

  27. Colt said on 17 Jan 2014 at 21:48:

    Hajottaa hieman kun ei saa Arma 2 ja Operation Arrowheadia yhdistettyä Combined Operationsiksi steam listassa. Koitin asentaa FDF:än arrowheadin roottiin mutta kun menen pelaamaan arrowheadin niin fdf kampanjan käynnistyksessä kaatuu. Kellään tietoa miten saisin Combined Operationsis näkyviin?

  28. hakkarainen said on 29 Jan 2014 at 19:14:

    Ei tarvitse kuin asentaa modi oikeaan osoitteeseen. Steamin launch optioneihin ei tarvitse sekaantua, eikä luoda CO kuvaketta. Steam versio varmaan aikojen saatossa korjattu, eli ei muuta kun asennus oikeaan osoitteeseen. Hyvin helppoa.

  29. mietin vaan said on 8 Feb 2014 at 17:57:

    ja mikäköhän on tämä oikea osoite?

  30. hakkarainen said on 10 Feb 2014 at 19:07:

    yllämainittu, eli: “C:\Program Files x86\Steam\steamapps\common\arma 2 operation arrowhead\”. Tai se mihin ikinä olet steamisi asentanutkaan.

  31. Aapeli said on 19 Mar 2014 at 21:37:

    tuota se näyttää expansions kohdasta että fdf on päällä mutta se ku ei pyöri sillä modilla. se pyörittää vaan ihan originaalia A2OA

  32. Aki said on 21 Apr 2014 at 13:50:

    Itse koitin kanssa nyt ensimmäistä kertaa ja menee niin pitkälle kun valitsen FDF modin Single Playerissa ja Start ja Difficulty niin sen jälkeen tyssää…

    Tällaisen herjan antoi heti peliä avatessa “No entry bin\config.bin/CfgVehicles/USNC_Soldier_Base.scope’_”

  34. Hope this helps. said on 11 Jun 2014 at 00:37:

    Guys it just might not be at the right folder, for some reason i couldnt change where the folder went, so i simply copied and pasted it from the bohemia interactive arma2 then just pasted it into steam > steamapps > common > arma 2 oa.

  35. Jatze said on 14 Aug 2014 at 02:20:

    Minulla myös ilmoitti “No entry bin\config.bin/CfgVehicles/…” jollain eri lopputiedostolla kuin ylempänä Aki mainitsi. Alkoi toimimaan oikein kun poisti tuon 8.-kohdan käynnistysvalikon “-mod=FDFmod” tekstin. Eli asentakaa FDF modi vain oikeaan kohtaan “Steam\steamapps\common\arma 2 operation arrowhead” eikä mitään muita muutoksia. Älkää käyttäkö ohjeita 6.-10.

    Do not write in Launch Options “-mod=FDFmod”. Only instal FDF mod in “Steam\steamapps\common\arma 2 operation arrowhead”. Do not use the instructions in 6.-10.

    Hello!

    It’s not working for me.. : /

    Well, when I start the game I got the map in editor mode but no soldiers, vehicles etc (no units from the mod) + when I start the map there is only buildings, no trees, no nothing except for the ground.

    What have I done incorrect?

    You actually make it seem really easy along with your
    presentation but I to find this topic to be really one thing which I believe I would by no means
    understand. It sort of feels too complicated and extremely large
    for me. I’m having a look ahead to your subsequent put up, I will attempt to get the cling of it!
