Hinds and Expansions Setting

[DnA]

Also, the JRE 'expansion' is not a true expansion and does not need to be enabled (it's recognized as such only because of the bin sub folder). We are going to filter it in an update

Cool, thanks for the info

If you know how to work with your Windows registry, you can try the following changes, until the same changes are applied in a patch. Since the expansion does work without these changes, do them only if you want to get rid of the double-listing.

• These changes are for non-Steam versions of Hinds. Steam should have already automatically applied them.
• Make a back-up of your registry before attempting these changes, or you may have to fully re-install the game and other applications if something goes wrong.
• Do not post full dumps of your registry here in case of problems, since this contains info you do not want to disclose to everyone.

I have read the warnings above, and still would like to apply these changes ...

1. Find the HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Bohemia Interactive Studio key.
2. Open the Take On Helicopters key.
3. If it does not exist, add a new String Value: DATA with value %MAIN%
4. Open sub-key Expansions.
5. If it does not exist, add a new Key: Take On Helicopters
6. In this new key, add a new String Value: MODDIR with value HSim
7. In this new key, add a new String Value: PATH with value Software\Bohemia Interactive Studio\Take On Helicopters
8. Go back to the Expansions key, and open the Take On Hinds sub-key.
9. Make sure the following String Values are set: LOADBEFORE - Take On Helicopters, MODDIR - Hinds and PATH - Software\Bohemia Interactive Studio\Take On Hinds

Run steam client as Admin. That should solve the problem (Steam beenden, Rechtsklick auf Steamverknüpfung und "Als Administrator ausführen")

Hi

I have the same problem like other 99.9% people, who buy ToH + Addon Hinds on Steam :/ I don't see my addon in the game :/ I run Steam as a administrator, and I have patch 1.5.
