yeah got CBA, i'll give those launch parameters a go in steam, see if it helps.

EDIT: I put that into the 'Launch options' in steam for ArmA 2 OA and i got this message


game still launched, went into the armoury, not sure entirely if things have changed. i dont hear the *click* on the m240 firing anymore though
I think that error comes up because its something to do with the beta patch expansion. Hmmm, I don't use Steam to launch Arma/Dayz so you'll have to bear with me, unless a fellow steam/JSRS user would care to jump in.

These were my steps...

1. unpacked CBA download into Arma 2 directory creating a folder called @CBA_CO.
2. Unpacked JSRS download in Arma 2 directory creating a folder called @JSRS  - NOTE: the file unpacked from the download will actually read @JSRS1.5 - I removed the '1.5' from my filename.

So in my Arma 2 directory I have these files, plus all the arma files naturally:

@BreakingPointSP
@CBA_CO
@JSRS

I create a new desktop launcher from the beta patch launcher that's in the directory by sending a copy to my desktop.

I then changer the target to read:

"C:\Program Files\Bohemia Interactive\ArmA 2\Expansion\beta\arma2oa.exe" -beta=Expansion\beta;Expansion\beta\Expansion -nosplash -skipintro -mod=@BreakingPointSP;@CBA_CO;@JSRS

Obviously yours will read slightly different due to steam.

It's super important that your launch paremeters are written as exactly the same as the folders that Arma is looking to launch so @JSRS must be @JSRS and not @JSRS1.5 or whatever.

Sorry if any of this comes across as condescending or it's stuff you already know, its just always hard to help someone when you can't see whats on their screen or what they have done.

When Arma/Dayz loads up to the menu do you also get the icons and stuff telling you what is exactly is running? You should have some colourful icons for CBA and JSRS down in the left hand corner and top right should read what stuff has loaded in ie BreakingPointSP, Beta, Expansion, CBA, JSRS.
