problems with 1.09 patch

**Grunt 70** · 12-27-2007, 07:59 PM

Greetings,

Hoping someone can shed some light..

I own the Bohemia Interactive Czech version of Arma. Bought it online and installed it...no disc...all digital. Today I downloaded the 1.09 patch, installed it and got a message back saying the patch was installed. I fire up the game and try to go to the TG server..but...I get an error message saying the game is the 1.08 version...what gives..I was hoping to seed the server for some good coop action but ...not now

If someone can help me with info I'd be grateful.

Just a suggestion;

To run the beta version, you need to start "Launch Arma Beta Patch" in your ArmA game directory.

If you need to run ArmA another way, and you still want to run the beta, make sure to start the ArmA.exe from the beta subfolder with working directory set to the normal ArmA directory and also with command line option -mod=beta

Note: 1.09 is not compatible in multiplayer with any previously available versions.

I just discovered that Fraps hates this version. I get lots of artifacting and often get a freeze which recovers to make the game look like I'm on acid. The fix is pretty simple ... no Fraps for me.
