Addon question for Arma2

[Napa]

I've download 4-5 addons for Arma2 OA including the CBA and Extended Events Handler mod. I know very well how to install mods in Arma2, really simple actually, but when I run the game a message pops up with the warning that CAWeapons3 is missing. Also that message keeps interfering with the gameplay.

 

I looked all day today at bi-forums, armaholic forums and God only knows which other forums I looked into with no CLEAR response whatsoever from anybody. In fact I found a thread where somebody requested help at finding this file and instead they closed (didn't move it) the thread because it was in the wrong section. :mad:

 

Anyhow... to sum up. Does anybody know where I could find this file? :helpsmilie:

This is what i use to lauch my arma

 

-mod=@CBA;@ACE;@ACEX;@ACEX_USNavy;@ACEX_RU;@ACEX_SM;@USSOCOM_core;@USSOCOM_maps;@cba;@JayArmA2Lib;@ACRE" "-nosplash

 

I don't know which mods ur using, but try to use the auto updater tools which can be found on the net (I forgot their names so...)

That error message, when does it pop up? As soon as you start the game or only if you try to play a certain mission? What addons are you using (the error message originates with one of them)? Also, isn't CBA=Extended Events Handlers, so you really should only be using CBA if I'm not mistaken.

CBA = Extended event handlers??? Didn't know that.. I'll remove that and keep only CBA. Thanks :D

 

I'm using the WarFX mods and a rock mod.. I soon as I finish work I'll post the shortcut launch parameters so you guys can take a look at what I'm doing wrong.

I fixed the CAWeapons3 message thanks to Lordwolf +1.

 

Now, once I'm in the menu GUI I get this message "No entry bin\configbin/CFGworlds.utes"

 

The hell is that?

 

Anyone had that before?

Utes is the island off to the South of Chesnarus.

 

Which mods are you using?

 

Also:

 

Are you running ArmA2 and OA in combined ops mode?

Are you running the box version of ArmA2 and the Steam version of OA?

 

This will help isolate a possible answer :)

I'm using the WarFX Blastcore mod - Visual Effects (Dusty + MuzzleFlashes & Shell Casings)

- Lighting (Takistan & Zargabad have the same lighting as the Desert map)

- Sunlight (Removes the sunglare)

- Tracers (Updated Tracers)

 

Mikebart's Rocks mod and of course the CBA addon (along with CBA OA version)

 

I'm running ArmA2 OA Standalone Steam version with BAF DLC.

I guess I'll have to buy ArmA2 (original) as well. That'll fix the issue right?

It should, like LordWolf said most of the addons requires A2.

You wont regret it, Tchernarus is an awesome map, the Marines have some nice stuff never seen before in ArmA (LHD, UH-1Y, AAVP-7, LAV-25,...) + the Russians :)

I think you need the standalone version of CBA for Operation Arrowhead, CBA_OA.

I do have that. It requires the original CBA to work though according to the readme file.

 

Here's the code:

 

"C:\Program Files (x86)\Steam\steamapps\common\arma 2 operation arrowhead\ArmA2OA.exe" -mod=@CBA;@CBA_OA;@mb_rocks;@WarFX-Blastcore;@WarFX-Lighting;@WarFX-SunLight;@WarFX-Tracers

I will, thanks for the help everyone.
