Introduction

The arma2.cfg file is a configuration file containing detailed information about YOUR game setup. Information such as language, LOD detail, resolution are stored in this file. The arma2.cfg file is written after the ARMA 2 was run for first time and the system settings are detected. The file itself is just as editable in a text file. The content format is

Warning : Use in-game UI options to configure game instead editing this file, unless You know what You doing.

Note: All changes via in-game UI options are saved into arma2.cfg on successful game exit.
