Note. Canard Island is now on Six. If you already have this installed with a different folder name, rename it to @cwr2_Canard so that the profile recognises it.
1. Depending on whether you're using PwS or SU, use one of the following links to load the CWR2 Tues/Sun profile:
pws://ciahome.net/six/cia-cwr2.yml
sixupdater://ciahome.net/six/cia-cwr2.yml
for the Thursday night profile the links are:
pws://ciahome.net/six/cia-test-ACE.yml
sixupdater://ciahome.net/six/cia-test-ACE.yml
and without ACE
pws://ciahome.net/six/cia-test-noACE.yml
sixupdater://ciahome.net/six/cia-test-noACE.yml
(note that these might only work in Internet Explorer, so if you use a different browser and they're not working, try pasting the link into IE)
Once the profile is loaded into PwS you need to add ACR Full or Lite to the profile, as well as BAF and PMC if you want. If you're not sure how to do this, refer to note A at the end of this guide for instructions for PwS (if anyone needs them for SU, please ask).
2. Add any other mods that you want to use, like ST_Hud, as explained in Note B.
3. Once you've finished adding mods (you should see them listed under the profile, but if not click on Show Info and it will open a panel on the right listing the mods), if the Update button is showing, click that to let it update/install the mods.
Note: After the mods have finished downloading, you need to go into the RHSMod folder and delete any files with rhs_ui in the name.
4. Once it's finished updating, click on the Server box (above the Update/Join button) and select the real CiA server and not one of the phantom servers, which probably won't show a name and will say 0/0 players, whereas the real one will show a proper number like 0/10. Then click on Join and PwS should launch Teamspeak and auto-connect (if not already running) and launch ArmA and auto-connect to the serverÂ
Notes:
A. To ensure the DLC loads, it's probably easiest to do the following which will cause it to load regardless of which profile is being used in PwS.
Click on the top-most box that shows the ArmA II CO picture then can click on Settings and then in Startup Parameters, add the following
"-mod=@baf;@pmc;acr" (edited accordingly to match the folder names you've installed the DLC to). If you only have ACR Lite, you would just enter
"-mod=acrlite" (assuming that's the folder you've got it installed to).
B. To add any other mods you might want to use, such as st_hud, JSRS, make sure you're on the Mods tab (second one down) and have the relevant CiA profile highlighted and to the right of that you should see an "Add Mods to set" panel. In there, search for the mod and when found, just double-click on it to add it, but don't click on the actual name of the mod, else it opens a webpage.
C. These are the names used on Six for the main mods we're using, so if you've installed any of these manually, if you ensure they're (re)named as below, then PwS will recognise them and not have to download them again.
