    Did you make sure to launch it with the beta shortcut?

    Right-click on the shortcut you use to launch ArmA. Then go to "Properties"

    At the top where it says "Target", you should see this:
    E:\ArmA\beta\arma.exe -mod=beta

    Obviously the E:\Arma might be different....but it should be:
    (your directory)\beta\arma.exe -mod=beta

    Re: Help connecting to TG server

    I ran into this little trap too. It's because the beta introduces a different ArmA.exe executable in a /beta/ directory within your normal Armed Assault program folder.

    The beta installer puts a shortcut for you in your /ArmA program directory that you can use to run it.

    Alternatively, you can modify your existing ArmA shortcut to run the beta by inserting /beta/ in front of ArmA.exe AND adding -mods=beta after the executable.
