If so, I would suggest editing your first post to this to reduce the possibility of confusion:

arma2oa.exe
arma2oaserver.exe
Expansion\Dta\bin.pbo
Expansion\Dta\bin.pbo.bi.bisign
Expansion\Dta\bin.pbo.bi2.bisign

In Megaupload mirror - Dta is in Expansion folder

No. This applies to NON-STEAM 1.60 installations, I'm pretty sure.

this 'hotfix' is for any OA 1.60 ... unrelated to distribution

just to clarify, we need both 87636 beta patch (40.97mb) AND the A2OA-160-hotfix-01.7z (4.75mb)?

thanks

Day after long awaited patch we have not one but three hotfixes and a new beta build? This is getting confusing. I'll wait a week, can't organize anything with this chaos going on...

My Steam OA would not work yesterday and verify said 1 file failed to validate and would be reacquired. This didn’t happen. This afternoon I tried again and apparently after the BAF hotfix everything works perfectly. Thanks again BIS

It is not that bad.

The only real problem found for Operation Arrowhead / Combined Operations was for users of Steam where for some reason wrong BAF signature was present but this is already fixed and the fix will apply automatically.

Other problem is for Arma 2 1.11 only (ie without Arrowhead) with incorrect signature, users of Combined Operations are not affected.

Rest can be considered as optional, nice to have, plus does not have any impact on mp compatibility in any way.
