I have a question too I see the 'stmovement' addon by Shacktac seems to be not compatible with A2 stand alone? But the addon was made before OA was released and i was hoping it would work with A2 but SU sais its incompatible.

Another thing that has been puzling me is if its posible to lock a certain SU profile to A2 or CO / OA standalone? Now i only have OA profiles and manually switch my 1 A2 profile i have with the use of the top bar if i join an A2 server maybe this is not the way to do it... But i could not find a manual for version 2 of SU

Hey all,

I cant seem to get six-updater to download CBA as I've only just realised we now need to use @CBA;@CBA_A2;@CBA_OA if we're running combined ops

Six is telling me that CBA_A2 and CBA_OA are "incompatible". I have CBA installed already and it shows as PASS status.

Also I don't have an @CBA_A2 or @CBA_OA folder in my A2 folder, as I haven't installed them previously.

Any ideas?

Make sure you are actually running the latest version of SU (2.9.5pre33 or newer), and that you have synced with the SU portal recently (Some peeps seem to turn the autosync off).
Also make sure the correct game edition is either detected, or selected. Esp for Steam check http://www.six-projects.net/Six_Upda...20installation

This works basically the same since the dawn of SU:
You have Presets and Game Profiles, and you can select for each preset which Game Profile should be used. On either Ribbon Preset Tab, or just the Presets tab.
In this case, "Clear" the Game Profile override on the Home RibbonTab to make the one in the current preset active.

Hi all. I was just wondering how to Remove Script Errors? I have the box on GameProfile that says 'ShowScriptErrors' un-ticked but when I take off from a carrier in-game i have a black box with white writing errors in it

[rodas61]

Well i seem to be getting the "Bad serial number given in setup" error but only when i try to run it out of steam. Running it through steam works fine. But i need to run it through six updater for all of my mods etc.

I also get this error "No entry ' bin\config.bin/Cfgsurfacecharacters.CRGrassWClutter'.

And i also get "Map_EU Requires CAsigns2"

I get all of these only when trying to run my mods in six

Help would be greatly appreciated

That should mean ARMA 2 original isnt loaded, please check http://www.six-projects.net/Six_Upda...20installation and especially the Steam notes.

Have searched high and low. How do you use SU to install ACE or any other mods to the server directly!?

Thanks for any help.

Ideally you can run Six Updater directly on your server, but if that's not possible you could use these built-in options: http://www.six-projects.net/Six_Upda...er%20with%20SU

I should be able to run it on the server. Do i just put six updater onto my server and run it though a remote desktop?
Thanks for the fast reply.

NP. Yes that's possible. If you enable "Server" checkbox within SU, if you launch the game through SU it will launch the Dedicated Server.
You can configure the startup parameters on the Game Profile tab.
