6 Launcher installs beta patch for you?

Recommended Posts

I was curious if anyone has used the 6 Launcher and experienced being able to play with the new 1.7.1.4 patch and not manually updated to the Arma2 beta patch? Last night I updated with 6 updater then 6 Launcher, joined games through 6 Launcher and had no problems. Yet, when trying to join one through the Arma2 main menu I was unable to.

So 6 Launcher will install the beta for you? Only if you play though 6 launcher though...right? I have steam and didn't see the new beta patch applied to those files. Now I suppose I would have to manually install the beta to the Steam files in order to play via Steam, correct?


The latest beta is live with BE support.

Six updater or not !

Yikes! So I should not play through 6 launcher? I should update via BIS beta link and run it through Steam?

P.S. Anyone have a step by step video or instruction on how to update to the beta patch and then run it through Steam? Thank you in advance!
