Non-Steam ARMA 2: CO launch

Recommended Posts

Yesterday I was playing fine, but I messed something up after I thought the DDoS was my fault and reinstalled today.

I was able to launch it through steam yesterday, but now I can't remember what I did to get that working. I bought ARMA: CO from bistudio.com, updated to build 93965 and everything works fine when launching from Six Launcher, but I want the steam overlay.

I tried adding the arma2ao.exe in the ArmA 2 folder as well as the /beta/ folder, the first one works but the servers say I'm out of date ( Red X next to them ). The second causes all kinds of errors, including "failed to create Direct3D 9 device".

Note: Everything DOES work with six launcher, this error is only for steam.

These are my steam shortcut info:

Target: "C:\Program Files\Bohemia Interactive\ArmA 2\arma2OA.exe" -mod=@Dayz

Start in: "C:\Program Files\Bohemia Interactive\ArmA 2\"

EDIT:

Tried the following with the Target:

Target: "C:\Program Files\Bohemia Interactive\ArmA 2\arma2OA.exe" -beta=Expansion\beta;Expansion\beta\Expansion -nosplash -mod=@Dayz

Still says out-dated.
