Hi,

I have had a look in the docs and the FAQ and can't see any hints as to how to setup SixUpdater to run the BIS beta builds of Arma.

Can I use six to run a beta build of Arma without screwing up my normal profiles? If so, how? I have just about got my Six profiles perfect and I don't want to mess them up!

Just tick the Beta checkbox above at Overrides, or enable Advanced Mode and in the Game Profiles datagrid, enable it at the game profile of your choice.

Alternatively you can just add the beta (A2) or expansion/beta (OA) Mod to your presets, it's in the Mods datagrid at the end.

Hi,

i just want to say Thank You for the great support yesterday in the Skype Support Chat!
The sixupdater is a very mighty tool and it seems that the continuous work of sickboy and his team make it better and better.

Great work.

Greetings
Jack

Thanks mate and np
'Team' is wishful thinking though, unless you mean one-man-team



But, I am Looking For

• Support assistance
• Network Management assistance (Collecing Mods, Missions and information)
• Development assistance ((Iron)Ruby, C#, .NET, WPF)
• Mirror hosting
• Server admins who wish to host custom repositories for their server and take full advantage of SU features

Thanks, but 1 GB free space is too less for an official mirror (23+ gb), and probably also for most CustomRepos,
also this seems to be a private backup-space, often not very useful for public distribution of files.

I have added preliminary support for DropBox a while ago, but their public service doesn't support differential transfers either so all these free hosting sites are nice but not too useful for SU purpose

You can share space on you hdd-s and public cloud space will be raised on your shared space.

Dropbox ban you for mass download of your files

Is there an idiots guide to setting up a repo anywhere? Ive read the guide that you have posted a few times sickboy, and its only taken me so far. I'm not that educated when it comes to this stuff, so I don't know what half the crap your talking about is...

I was able to push the repo, and i see the repo files on the ftp, but i dont see it showing up in the list of available mods for download on the SU.

Great Polish for the overall Apperance!

Looks like the Days of the Command Window coming to an End, whitch remembers me at the Start of SU Console and ACE2 Betatest Phase.
