Javelin does not work.

Javelin locking has been broken for about 6 OA betas. Related?

This is brilliant, I've been having a blast playing with military units on the South Asia map. Realistic engagement ranges really open up a whole new side of Arma2 that I haven't been able to enjoy before. Being able to line up a strafing run in the A10 6km out, popping up and firing a Hellfire from 3km away, huge armor battles with tanks slogging it out from thousands of meters... It's just awesome. Got ACE mostly working with the TOH CBA, some of the features, like the tank laser ranging, crash the game to desktop, but hopefully these things get ironed out.

Can someone explain how to create the batch file?

open a notepad file and put your shortcut in that...

"F:\Program Files\Bohemia Interactive\Take On Helicopters\beta\takeonh.exe" "-mod=F:\Program files (x86)\Bohemia Interactive\Arma 2;F:\Program files (x86)\Bohemia Interactive\Arma 2\Expansion;F:\Program files\Bohemia Interactive\Take On Helicopters;F:\Program files\Bohemia Interactive\Take On Helicopters\Hinds;F:\Program files\Bohemia Interactive\Take On Helicopters\beta" -nosplash

Should look something(change to your own directory structure) like above...
Then save the file to your game folder and name it as "takeonBetarearmedStart.bat"
Notice its got a .bat extension and not .txt
Thats all there is to it.
All you do is run the .bat file to start your game.

Works fine here with OA/CO CBA... Just the main menu needs some love and some other UI elements.
TOH specific things/vehicles are of course missing with the OA/CO CBA version (XEH, TOH functions, etc).

I know TOH isn´t a combat sim,

Why they are doing a compatibilty patch with arma content, then?

When I run the bat file as you have it set up, I get an error message... No Entry '.profilePathDefault'. I have to re configure the whole game every time I play. What am i doing wrong?

crawl55 post your paths to the different games to let people give you the exact path you need.

Hi crawl55,

I had the same issue - try to use standard "takeonh.exe" instead of "beta\takeonh.exe"
