Installing the ACV CavPack with BitTorrent Sync 2.0

Installing the ACV CavPack with BTSync is super simple, follow along closely and you'll have no issues.

1. If you have a previous installation of CavPack, remove all of it's files.
2. Install BitTorrent Sync using the default settings, name your device alias whichever you prefer.
   1. You will be forced to use a 30 day trial of BTSync Pro. Just let it run it's course and expire, we do not need any of it's features.
3. Click the following link and BTSync will open and automatically link to the folder. BTSync Link
   1. If the link opens and does nothing, copy the url and paste it into the "manual connection" window. Found under the gear icon in BTSync.
4. Change the "Save to location" to your Arma 3 root directory. Verify that the directory ends in /arma3/. Be sure you select the option called "Overwrite any changed files" in the Preferences (3 dots, preferences). Leave "Sync all" enabled.
5. It might verify that you are selecting a folder with contents already inside, click okay. This is not an issue because we are not overwriting any vanilla files.
6. You're set! After a few moments you will start syncing with the current ModPack's build.

The modpack is now installed! We recommend using Arma's built in launcher to add the mods.

Updating the ACV CavPack with BitTorrent Sync Nam

As long as you keep BitTorrent Sync running, your modpack will automatically be updated when we push an update out from our servers.
