Description:

Is an Operation Flashpoint launch option -profiles allows you to specify a specific location for player's profile files.

Path Definition Explaination
-profiles=c:\games\myProfiles -
"-profiles=c:\My Profiles\profiles" If the profile path contains spaces, the whole parameter should be enclosed by quotation marks.
-profiles=profiles The path defined in the argument can also be interpreted relative to the <GAME'S> path. Resulting path would be c:\<gamefolder>\profiles\Users\<playername>.
-profiles=. Would put the user profiles directly into the game folder: c:\<gamefolder>\Users\<playername>.
Example Example
Example Example

The syntax would be, for example,


Note: If the profile path contains spaces, the whole parameter should be enclosed by quotation marks: c:\armed assault\ArmA.exe "-profiles=c:\armed assault\profiles"


The path defined in the argument can also be interpreted relative to the ArmA path: c:\arma\ArmA.exe -profiles=profiles would use the folder c:\arma\profiles\Users\[playername], and


c:\arma\ArmA.exe -profiles=. would put the user profiles directly into the game folder (c:\arma\Users\[playername]).


The way this path is interpreted depends on the game version:

  1. V1.04 and before: reads the folder c:\games\armaprofiles\PlayerName
  2. V1.05 and later: reads the folder c:\games\armaprofiles\Users\PlayerName
