Take On Helicopters Beta Patch 91543

You can use a batch file to extend the limit.

Or use symlinks/junctions and rename the linked folders.

I´ve fixed up a batch file from which to call the beta. However, despite the paths being correct, no arma 2, or TOH bonus content (hinds) shows up when the beta is started. Main menu animations are also missing. This is the command line I use:

"C:\Program Files\Bohemia Interactive\Take On Helicopters\beta\takeonh.exe" -mod=Beta;c:\Program files\Bohemia Interactive\Arma 2;c:\Program files\Bohemia Interactive\Arma 2\Expansion;C:\Program files\Bohemia Interactive\Take On Helicopters;C:\Program files\Bohemia Interactive\Take On Helicopters\beta;C:\Program files\Bohemia Interactive\Take On Helicopters\Hinds -nosplash

Try this:

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

This should also work if the batch file is in your TKOH folder:

beta\takeonh.exe "-mod=c:\Program files\Bohemia Interactive\Arma 2;c:\Program files\Bohemia Interactive\Arma 2\Expansion;C:\Program files\Bohemia Interactive\Take On Helicopters;Hinds;beta" -nosplash

Maybe even this:

beta\takeonh.exe "-mod=c:\Program files\Bohemia Interactive\Arma 2;c:\Program files\Bohemia Interactive\Arma 2\Expansion;Hinds;beta" -nosplash

Thanks PVP, that got it working.

Very nicely so, too. Really great having the arma 2 stuff in there, can´t wait for the full patch.

BoboCZ what is your modline?

The A2/OA ui should be hidden if launched correctly.
Make sure to have the beta folder at the very end.

Thanks, that was exactly my problem.

Works nice, only with Chernorus low fps with this view and settings of TOH.

I dont see only additional maps like : Lingor island. I have for expample folder named @lingor in main folder of Arma II. Any ideas why or this beta dosent allow addons for Arma?

[Jedra]

@_YoYo_,

You either have to copy the @Lingor folder to your ToH folder or use a Symlink (which is what I do) - it won't pick up addons in your Arrowhead folder.

@YoYo
Any additional maps or addons you have in your arma2 directory you can bind them individually on the -mod parameter.

Some comparisons screens from Lingor at A2OA and TKOH.


Anyone managed to load the BAF and PMC DLC? It pops a addon decrypting error if you bind them.
Or aren't the locked DLCs yet supported?

[_YoYo_]

Just noticed - no speach of pilot if he did checklist (APU on, Engine IDE ect), only something like "beep".

@Jedra, TonyGrunt, thank You, I will try.
Edit: no, cant see and addons in expansion in TOH menu too. My TOH Folder: http://img835.imageshack.us/img835/9553/catalogl.jpg
If I run the normal version of TOH, or ArmA I have this map of Lingor (in ToH only with many errors missing objects).

"G:\Take On Helicopters\beta\takeonh.exe" "-mod=G:\ArmA II;G:\ArmA II\Expansion;G:\Take On Helicopters;G:\Take On Helicopters\Hinds;G:\Take On Helicopters\beta" -nosplash

@ TonyGrunt

No DLC support so far. You can cast your vote for it here.


@ _YoYo_

Try:

"G:\Take On Helicopters\beta\takeonh.exe" "-mod=@lingor;G:\ArmA II;G:\ArmA II\Expansion;G:\Take On Helicopters;Hinds;beta" -nosplash

Or even:

"G:\Take On Helicopters\beta\takeonh.exe" "-mod=@lingor;G:\ArmA II;G:\ArmA II\Expansion;Hinds;beta" -nosplash

You can reference modfolders inside the TKOH folder with a relative path too.
For the beta patch, you shouldn't need to add the path to TKOH folder either.
