New update problems

**PowerCock** · 07-18-12, 12:03 AM

Ok so last night, 07/16/12 I installed the new patch 95whatever and replaced the .dll files according to SmokenSheriffs instructions. Everything works I played with everybody for a while.

I try to get on tonight and start receiving a "bad version" message on every new patch server I try to join, including the same one I logged out of at the end of last night.

I've tried a bunch of fixes online, nothing. I've been working at it for a couple hours now and I'm about ready to smash my monitor. Anyone else having issues?

Yeah I had the 95054 beta. Now it appears there is another beta update, but the link won't work at this time. I'll try it later and see if that doesn't resolve the issue. Thanks

FIX / WORKAROUND for the beta failing to install on STEAM build:

use registry editor add registry key into
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Bohemia Interactive Studio\ArmA 2

create new String value
name it "MAIN" (w/o "")

then place into it same content like is already in key "path"
(e.g. "C:\Program Files\Steam\SteamApps\Common\ARMA 2" w/o "" again)

that's all and now the installer sees Your STEAM game ...
