ECP 1.085 (Enhanced Configuration Project) for ArmaCWA v1.99!
By Nimble Dick
Many people who have purchased Arma Cold War Assault over steam will not be able to play the best vanilla gameplay enhancement mod available to the game due to the installer which required OFP v1.96 to be on your PC in order to install it, I have extracted it and uploaded it in a form which allows players to run it on ArmaCWA v1.99, to install download the following file:

{LINK REMOVED}

To run place the @ECP file in your ARMA Cold War Assault directory, right click on ArmaColdWarAssault.exe and click "Create Shortcut", right click on the shortcut and rename it to @ECP then right click again and go into "Properties"

Where it says target add the following onto the end of the field

-nomap -nosplash -mod=@ECP

It should look something like this:



click Apply and then run the shortcut and ECP mod will start up working perfectly with ArmaCWA v1.99!

This mod also includes JAM 3, It is also compatable with the WW4 modification, which conitains its own instructions on how to install the mod with an ECP config (which makes the whole gameplay experience 100 times better trust me)

Enjoy!

nah its cool, i already solved it, the problem was that the actual files were 2 folders bellow the actual folder linked, i had to just put them further in a more "surface level" in the mod folder, which was weird problem to have.

@Sr.Foske it is likely a conflict of the mod's config file, unfortunately if you use a mod that has it's own config adding new effects it will require a special patch to make it @ECP compatible due to the amount of base features that ECP uses. There are instructions on how to make a mod compatible but if you are not versed in modding and C++ this might be a difficult task, you will need specialist tools to get the Config.cpp file too to decrypt the .bin format if it's not an open source mod. If a mod is new addons and doesn't change any of the base game effects or classes it should be compatible, if you delete the BIN and DTA folders from the DANMOD sub directory it will load in all of the mods addons if you add it to the target line with @ECP; though this could also make the game a complete mess so I would create backups.

Alternately in the target line of your ColdWarAssault.exe shortcut swap the position of @ECP;DANMOD around and it should load the mod configs in a different order

All my file is is a rar file with the mod files in it and a couple of extra quality of life pbo's, all other links for this mod have an installer which won't install the mod if you don't have 1.96 (basically an antiquated version of the game that is unavailable now unless you have the game on Disk).

Use the link Mahboison posted below and it will work. Steam won't let you post mediafire links because steam.

@Mahboison any chance you can just give a full URL of the mediafire download?

The link is mediafire dot com/ file /vljkswsvi3t31t3/%2540ECPArmaCWA.rar

Any chance of creating a guide to show how you made it compatible with 1.99 or is it just too involved to do over this interface?

Someone should reupload it to Google Drive
