Post by: PV2 Swenson on May 20, 2015, 01:49:03 AM

Which one is better for Mod management?

I use Arma 3 Launcher and find it very simple and easy to use.

I just released a personal written guide which includes your concern.

I think it will help you to judge which one you want to use.
( I hope you can acces it as a non-enlisted member )

You can see the guide HERE (http://www.506thir.net/forums/index.php?topic=5256.msg30186#msg30186)

Thank you, but the guide is currently off limits to me at the present time.

Would recommend trying both and see which you prefer.

I use a batch file (.bat). It launches ARMA with specific mods only. Save this modline (for Windows 7 64 bit) in notepad as a ".bat" file.

"C:\Program Files (x86)\Steam\steamapps\common\Arma 3\arma3.exe" -mod=@CBA_A3;@sthud;@st_stamina_bar;@RHSUSF;@RHSAFRF;@task_force_radio;@506th;@AllInArmaTerrainPack;@ACE

Once saved, double-click the icon and it launches default 506th mods every time.
