    ACE missing model message

    Hey guys,
    in anticipation of today's co-op event (Sun Mar 22), I patched ACE with 1.05 then 1.06.
    When I started the game, using the following:

    C:\Games\ArmA\beta\arma.exe -nosplash -mod=beta -mod=@ACE -mod=@ACE-Islands -mod=@Afghan_Avgani

    I got a Windows alert-type message, saying
    Addon 'ace_config_weapon' required addon 'ace_model_infantry_weapons_javelin'

    Then the game started. After joining a team and downloading the mission file, my screen was black, except for my hud elements. When I looked around, I would get player names showing up, like I was looking at them, but that's it, except for a message saying I needed to disconnect and re-run with the following addons:
    ACE_MODEL_INFANTRY_WEAPONS_JAVELIN
    SPON_CORE
    SPON_RANGEFINDER

    I finally exited, then ran the ACE uninstall, and reinstalled 1.00, 1.02, 1.04, 1.05 and 1.06.
    I am getting the same initial error but didn't want to attempt to troubleshoot further while everyone else was playing the mission.

    I guess I could try uninstalling ACE, then patching up to 1.04 like it was when it last worked.

    Does anyone else have any ideas?

    Thanks, and I'm sorry I didn't get to play in today's event.

    Re: ACE missing model message

    Just looking at it quicky. It seems that your ACE addon/patching didnt work correctly.
    Why don't you try to download the full version of the recent ACE version and install again.
    That error message is pretty much straight forward. I mean, basically you'd need those three addons in the correct ACE addon subfolder.

    Let us know if that worked for you.
    Also, try to shortcut instead of "-mod=";

    "C:\Program Files\Bohemia Interactive\ArmA\beta\arma.exe" -mod=beta;@ACE;@ACE-Islands;@Afghan;@Avgani -nosplash

    (obviously the path & folder names will be different to mine, but you get the idea.)

    Re: ACE missing model message

    I tried downloading ACE again (is there a 1.05 or 1.06 'full', or do they just come in the 'update' versions?), and reinstalling, and some other file was missing this time.
    So... I'm going to reinstall ArmA, with patches, ACE, ACE-Islands, and Avgani-Afghan Village, all from scratch tonight or tomorrow night, and hopefully that sorts out my ArmA issues

    Thanks LowSpeed for the guidance, and I appreciate the advice regarding tweaking my shortcut!

    Just remember the TG ACE1.03 download is the patch, even though it says full version in the link.

    Re: ACE missing model message

    Thanks for the advice guys.

    I finally managed to get things sorted by installing 1.05 full then patching to 1.06 ACE.

    I guess my computer didn't like something in the 1.02 install, which seemed to be causing the problem.

    Anyway, a little digging and I found the link to the full 1.05 here:

    as linked to from:

    Glad to be back, and in time for last Sunday's event!
