Before posting an issue
- Please make sure you have the latest versions installed of ALL required Mods, that Includes CBA. Latest is available on Six Updater Suite.
- Please make sure you only run 1 version of any mod you use. e.g. Multiple versions of CBA == bad! Only the latest version should be installed.
- Try running the game without any additional mods / addons - Many times incompatible addons are the root-cause of issues
- Once determined, we can further investigate / try to resolve the issue.
- We encountered some reports of genuine Arma2 bugs, that are not ACE specific, they should be reported at the Arma 2 CIT.
- Make sure your official Addons folder does only contain BI addons. BI pbo files are stored in the 'ADDONS' folder of your Arma2 main directory ONLY. Additional content/addons/mods use the modfolder principle. (Additional read: BIKI "Addons")
- If you have a bug concerning the ACEX PLA mod, use the ACEX-PLA issue tracker.
- Please make sure the bug is NOT in our tracker already, if it is, please use the existing ticket.
- Please make sure the bug you are going to report is NOT caused by a mission you played (Reproduce the situation in the editor). If you cannot make sure it was caused by a mission but you assume so, make sure to tell us the mission you have played when the bug appeared, when you report.
