Tutorial Boot Camp won't proceed
Closed, ResolvedPublic

Description

When I click on any type of mod (multiplay, campaign, challenge, etc)
This message pops up for Boot Camp.
However When I click "NO" button this message won't disappear. it just stays up there until I click "YES". Even after I complete the Boot Camp it keeps telling me to do it again. So far I couldn't play the game at all.

I purchased it from Steam. {F24562} {F24563}

Hello,
please try adding the following entry to your \Documents\Arma 3\<GameProfileName>.Arma3Profile:
bootCampWarning = 1;

Please let me know, thank you very much.

Hello Thnak you for your help HOWEVER I don't know how to do that...
Can you tell me step by step?..
Also I don't know why I don't have profile files at all in my Arma 3 folder.
Can you please tell me step by step please..
I really want to play the game I don't want to waste my money.
Thank you for your help. I will wait for it.. thank you

Hey Iceman you there?..plz help me out man.
I couldn't play the game at all beacuse of this issue...
PLEASE..

I am here.
There are few simple steps.
1] First, you have to find your profile location. It should be really simple, like that:
C:\Users\<Name>\Documents\Arma 3 - Other Profiles\<Your_profile>

2] Then you will see a file starting with your profile name:
<GameProfileName>.Arma3Profile

3] Right click on it and select "Open with"

4] Choose notepad to open it

5] File will open, look for line "bootCampWarning," it should be close to the bottom of the page.

6] Change the line so it looks like this: bootCampWarning=1;

7] Save the file, you're good to go.

I hope this helps but if not, please feel free to ask for further assistance.

Hello Iceman Sorry to bother you again.
I have problem I don't have such a file in C drive
but I do have a document folder in my D drive
I searched each individual files and folders however there are nothing related to PROFILE. I re-download it 6 times already but still having same problem.
I don't have profile folder at all even though I create one from the game...
PLZ HELP ME..

Well you guys duplicated some of issues but
it still haven't fixed my problem.
What's going on?

I don't have such a file saying profiles at all.

I already redownload it 6 times. I spent $60 on it to play the game not to being waiting pool.

Hey,
could you please upload your whole profile?

I DID EVERYTHING YOU TOLD ME TO DO.
BUT IT DIDN'T WORK AT ALL.
I DID UPLOAD IT I DID CREATED IT BUT IT DOESN'T CREATE FILE AT ALL

Hey,
I created new profile nkim1994 and uploaded it here. Please download it, extract (using winrar or 7-zip) and copy into your Arma folder in documents:
C:\Users\<Name>\Documents\Arma 3 - Other Profiles\

Start the game then and in Main menu, go to:
Configue > Profiles
Change your current profile for this one and apply the changes. Yous should be able to use it fully. Please change your graphical settings to your likings. Let me know if you're successful.

ok thank you for your help but i can't download that attached file.
I can't even click it. Also I looked through all the files but i don't have any file name other profile or such profile. Do I have to download Arma 3 on C-drive because i downloaded on D-drive. And I did try to create the profiles many times but as soon as I get out of config it resets them.

So i deleted my Arma 3 and re-download it on C drvie. After that I still see this message pop up saying problem occured creating profile something like that. some of them fixed it through unlock the read-only icon but to me I have different problem. Icemen thank you for your assistance. But it doesn't fix my problem yet. I created my own profile and tried to look for the my profile file in arma 3 folder however I still can't find it.

Is the problem still present for you then?

Yes SIR STILL CAN'T PLAY THE ARMA3.

You should be able to download the profile archive in the attachments now, could you please try it?

I don't have location you told me.

C:\Users\<Name>\Documents\Arma 3 - Other Profiles\<Your_profile>

Instead of that, I've got

C:\Users\<Name>\AppData\Local\Arma 3

this is the only folder I can find I don't have "Documents" in my C drive.
