Title: Beta 1.40 Legacy Disabled? [Reproduced]
Post by: 1LT (Ret) Ryan on May 05, 2015, 10:49:37 AM
I woke up today, launched Steam, and it is forcing me to update ArmA 3 and whenever I try to access the beta it is saying that the access code is invalid.

This happening to anyone else?

EDIT: Looks like it is. Sitting tight for Command orders.

Yep, several of us are having the very same issue.

Version 1.44 (http://feedback.arma3.com/changelog_page.php) released today.

It will happen to everyone and there is basically nothing we can do about it.

I have a "legacy" folder that doesn't get updated by steam and it still runs fine as 1.40. I'm going upload it to dropbox and probably mega as well. just save it as something other than "Arma 3" and then you'll have to setup a new Arma3sync profile for it.

I thought something like that was up.  I was trying to complete my new recruit stuff today and got stalled at that step, I even quadruple-checked my typing for the legacy code. 

Kinda makes me wonder what I should do in the meantime, since I need to be attending recruit training.

Uh, so how do we install this?

I posted this in another thread, but it's worth putting here as well.

I would advice waiting on word from Command Staff before trying to implement any of the more unusual fixes for these issues. Obviously it makes things more difficult and training etc will likely have to wait for a little while, but it is better than making things more difficult.

Well hopefully everything will be updated soon, and hopefully ACE3 will be released soon to save us from AGM not being updated.

I'm a little lost. I've downloaded the 1.40 legacy folder (thank you, SGT Bernal!) but have no idea what to do with it. Pretty sure I can't just dump it on top of my Steam's ArmA 3 folder and expect it to run 1.40. So, how do we run the legacy version?

As said before in this topic, just wait for Command staff to post an official stance on the matter once they figure out what is going to be done regarding the update.

Awesome timing. I have been waiting for the better part of two weeks for a convinient cycle of osut training this weekend and now our mods won't work...

Don't do this. We'll be updating to 1.44 in the next 24-48 hours.

This is the response of Cpt Drumheller in other related thread

None, wait for a Command Staff post. They're working on where we take the step forward.
