Are my PMC and BAF addons installed correctly?

[decoman 45]

I wonder, how can I tell if the addons Private Military Company and British Armed Forces is installed properly?

I noticed today that the files for the addons PMC and BAF apparently reside on my admin account, somewhere in a temp folder in the "user" folder in Windows. My ArmA 2/DayZ installation is on a non-admin account in windows. The folders for PMC and BAF are respectively 900 MB and 500 MB large.

The ArmA 2/DayZ client show the addons as being loaded, but I cannot help wondering if something is wrong with where the files ended up being installed.

I found these files by accident when using the software WinDirStat. (It shows how big folders and the branching tree structure of folders are, in bytes, percentage and then all represeted as graphics).

All addons should be installed the same way as the dayz mod is setup.

For BAF for example you create an folder called @BAF and inside you create a folder called ADDONS, now in this folder you dump all *.pbo and *.Bisign files.

If there is a key file put that into the existing KEYS folder.

Now start the addons the same way as days, add this to your startup parameter : -mod=@BAF;@PMC;@Moreaddons;@andevenmoreaddons.

Hope this helps, but i advice all people who came to arma true Dayz to check out the arma websites, for example : http://forums.bistudio.com/index.php

Thank you. I now see that I do have the PMC and BAF addons in my regular ArmA2 folder so I will delete the other ones I found.
