506th Mod issue

[SPC (Ret) Cyrus]

After TFA FTX, I restarted my Arma and a window popped up saying this.

Addon'506th_Config' requires addon 'ace_nightvision'

This is the first time this has said this and during the FTX I had no issue. I attempting to join the Patrol Ops server but wasn't able to. I tried Weapons, Havoc 1, and Havoc 2 servers with the same results of it forcing me back to server select. I don't know what is going on but one of you could assist me.

You may have just had a minor error starting up Arma and a mod in your ACE file simply failed to initialized properly.

OR

You may have corrupted your ACE file somehow or deleted/lost the PBO related to that mod. I'd recommend a quick reinstall of both your @506th mod as well as your @ACE mod.

Either way, solution 2 should definitely be able to fix it.

I have located the issue and would like to make it known. The issue was caused by me having the 506th ACE&CBA and the steam version at same time. The steam version updated and deleted my 506th version. I fixed it by re-downloading 506th ACE&CBA and unsubscribed the steam versions.

Just to weigh in here: This gem of a quote is the solution to 2/3 of the mods issues I help troubleshoot and fix.
