Moved to the Q&A thread.

If you have Operation Arrowhead as well then patch to 1.61 then 1.62, you should be good to go.

Sorry about that mate. I don't have operation arrowhead just reinforcements.

Reinforcements is Baf and Pmc dlc and Arrowhead Lite (units,weapons,islands,vehicles etc without missions and campaigns) so patch for OA are also for RFT. Check readme for patches. If your Rft is v1.60 install patch v1.62, this patch also update your arma 2 to v1.11 if needed.

Thank you I'll try that later, can you advice me on any decent clans to join?

[tom3kb]

Check here on forum "Arma 2 and OA Squads and fanpages" there you find many clans,groups that looking for new players.

I have just installed ARMA2 OA and RFT, but am battling to patch them up to date.

In the ARMA2 folder it has patch ARMA2Patch_1_06

What patch(es) must I download and install to bring my games up to date, as on the official website they have different numbering.

Many thanks in advance.

What game version does it list in game on the main menu? Use that number and this page to find your patches. It's usually 1.50 -> 1.60 -> 1.62

Version no: 1.51.71083

Thanks for that I shall follow it up and see what I can see.
