Updater: Multi-Game(family and edition) support!+Blog

The updater has been updated to include full support for Op. Arrowhead, Standalone and Combined ops, next to the already supported ArmA 2 standalone.

Now also with auto-detection of the game family/edition, as well as support for future games.

Mods are now tagged with the game(family/edition) they are specifically meant for. It also allows to pick e.g the whole ArmA2 family (=mod is compatible with all editions), or for instance only the ArmA2 OA family (regardless of Standalone/CO)

Also cool is that e.g CBA_OA automatically is not loaded on OA Combined Ops installations as it is set specifically for OA Standalone.

I've also improved the usage of beta's; you can now simply enable or disable beta for any settings-profile.

It will automatically adjust the path to the beta exe etc. The same count for 'server'; when in server-mode, automatically the server exe is used etc.

Additionally, servers now display their version by default in the servers overview, as well on the main page, servers are tagged with "A2" or "OA" to denote what type of server.

The main page contains more information, some hidden away behind tool-tips on the various links.

Because of these enhancements, the amount of needed presets and settings profiles has been reduced by about 50% :)

Already received profiles/presets will not be removed so existing users can manually remove the redundant presets if they wish.

Hopefully more improvements to come!

Enjoy!
