SurvivalServers.com Posted December 10, 2014 Report Share Posted December 10, 2014 Updated May 11, 2015: Version 1.0.0.5 released I've been working for the last few months on a launcher for both Arma 2:OA and Arma 3. The goal is simple: keep it free, keep it updated (same day mod / game updates), and keep it from negatively impacting player ease of joining game servers. It's also modular and I can build in new games fairly easily. Here are a few screenshots: I decided to release a bit early due to the Arma 3 Epoch update and because the core features are stable. I have a sleugh of features in the works like favorites, friends, notifications, and statistics & reports. Coming soon, of course =) Go download it at http://www.SurvivalLauncher.com As feedback is crucial to this project, I ask that you let me know of any bugs or feature requests in the forum. Cheers!

SurvivalServers.com Posted December 10, 2014 Author Report Share Posted December 10, 2014 That's the goal. Unify multiple games into a single source. Will be adding more games soon! Everything is modular, which is the point of this project, easy to add games, easy to add mods. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Friendly Posted December 10, 2014 Report Share Posted December 10, 2014 We probably shouldn't insult other launchers, every launcher currently is pretty unique, I hope this one goes a little bit out of the way to make itself different. crckdns 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Creep Posted December 10, 2014 Report Share Posted December 10, 2014 unless there will be a launcher that finally adds compatibility for mod collections and mods directly from armaholic, all new launchers are the same... everyone adds their own mods and need a hardcoded updated for every new mod.. in the end the same like dayzcommander having mods not updated for 3 weeks + Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MrEnzO Posted December 10, 2014 Report Share Posted December 10, 2014 So how to get this launcher to understand where I have my steam library installed? I put where I have it under settings and file path settings but all I am getting is "You don't have any games that works with this launcher" Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SurvivalServers.com Posted December 10, 2014 Author Report Share Posted December 10, 2014 unless there will be a launcher that finally adds compatibility for mod collections and mods directly from armaholic, all new launchers are the same... everyone adds their own mods and need a hardcoded updated for every new mod.. in the end the same like dayzcommander having mods not updated for 3 weeks + You can launch into a plain Arma 2 servers using the "Any" filter, See below. So how to get this launcher to understand where I have my steam library installed? I put where I have it under settings and file path settings but all I am getting is "You don't have any games that works with this launcher" The settings tab has a file path that should auto detect your steam common folder, but if for some reason it does not detect your path, set it manually and be sure it has the closing "\" like this: C:\Program Files (x86)\Steam\SteamApps\common\ It MUST have the \ after SteamApps\common\ Then just go and refresh the server browser page.

wangtangnoodle Posted December 10, 2014 Report Share Posted December 10, 2014 Cheers, it was the slash after 'common' that was missing. Runs fine, I like it. Best looking launcher I've seen since DZC. Steven1230 and TayTayTheKiller 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Steven1230 Posted December 11, 2014 Report Share Posted December 11, 2014 Love the launcher. Works a lot better than DayzCommander does by far, also a bonus with Arma 3 in the listings. Thank you and look forward to more features being added. TayTayTheKiller 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
