INSTALLATION

In order to install the modification, run the CWR_RC3_4392.exe from the downloaded archive.

Please take note that sometimes the installer is not able to detect your correct ArmA installation folder, e.g. if you installed to a custom folder or another drive. In this case do the following:

• Start the installer and enter a temporary folder for installation (e.g. cwr_temp. If the folder is not present it will be created.
• Once the installation is complete, move the "CWR" folder which contains all pbo's to your ArmA installation folder - remember it is just another Modfolder.
• The same you do with the Campaigns, Missions and MPMissions folders. Maybe the readme too.
• If the folders are moved to your ArmA installation you can delete the temporary folder.
• Next you must edit your ArmA shortcut (or make a new one). Like with any other Mod you add at the end of the 'target line' -mod=CWR.
  Example: c:\games\arma\arma.exe -nosplash -mod=cwr
  Alternatively copy that .bat file to your arma installation, it starts arma with the -nosplash parameter and CWR as Mod.

The installation will not modify your settings for ArmA: Armed Assault.

The technical support and troubleshooting follow the same guidelines as those for ArmA: Armed Assault. Please see the documentation for the original game for more information.

SYSTEM REQUIREMENTS

ANY ORIGINAL VERSION OF ARMA 1.14.

System requirements for Cold War Rearmed are identical to those of the original game. ArmA: Queens Gambit should not be used together with this modification.

KNOWN ISSUES

• The installer sometimes doesn't work as supposed (see above).

• Ladders on some ArmA models are currently not working.

• Winter Kolgujev might crash because the vegetation pbo is missing.
