Addonsync question

**bolagnaise** · 05-03-2011, 07:57 AM

Hey guys, got a noob question. I setup addonsync fine and have it running great however on the initial setup i stupidly put my player profile name as ben instead of bolagnaise, this makes me show up in games as ben, so no one will have a clue who i am. For the life of me i cant work out how to either A:change my profile or B: make a new one.

cheers guys

Launch ArmA 2 and hit Options, you should get the ability to make a new profile. Call it what you want, and customise away. When done, close it and open Addon Sync again. You should see the new profile. However, you could just leave it blanc in addon sync and let the game use the new default?

That should be it, if not hit me up in TS tonight.

Guys,

I don't want to hijack this thread but I really like going to combat with you guys, but I've been playing a lot in a brazilian community

Is there a way to keep both servers synconized?

When I syncronize one server, Yoma erases the other one.

Thanks.

We stick to our own update schedule. Don't worry, we will be updating to the newest stable version soon. After this current release ACE goes stable which means once a month updates. That should be mean less disruptions between servers.

That's nice.

But I like to play regularly on those 2 servers, but they don't have the same mods loaded. When I syncronize with your server I can't play on the other one.

Is there a way to play on both servers without having to syncronize each one everytime?

It depends on which mods are being used, so long as both servers use ACE on the same version/build you should be fine, no synching needed.

Perhaps you can install into separate directly for each server?
Launching the game appropriate to the server requirements.

Or rename the ACE mods separately after syncing. Then launching via desktop shortcut.

Syncronize your addons to seperate folders.

Example
for Server 1 (your primary server) --- Have addonsync download to your normal \arma2 folder.
for Server 2 (TacticalGamer.com) --- Have addonsync download to a folder underneath your ArmA 2 Folder.
Example

\arma2\tg\ (instead of \arma2\)
you would then run your modline as follows
-mod=TG\@ACE;TG\@ACEX;TG\@ACEX_SM;TG\@ACEX_RU;TG\@A CEX_USNavy;TG\@CBA;TG\@TGMaps;@ACRE;@JayArmA2Lib

Problem with AddonSync 2009 using the Kellys Heroes Server. When I try to d/l the Addons I get an Error 404 message. Only happened from about May 14th. Any ideas?

Sorry Whizkid, this may sound silly but you should ask Kelly's Heroes whats up. However, there is lots of info here to help you get set up on our servers.

Thanks, Unk, you're right, of course! As I fight with another clan that uses Kellys as their server I should go there. I finished up here after Googling Addon Sync, and it directed me to TG, which is fine as I didn't know you existed! I like your site, so will be back. Thanks.
