Installing the ACV CavPack with BTSync is super simple, follow along closely and you'll have no issues.
 
 
 
# If you have a previous installation of CavPack, remove all of it's files.
 
# Install BitTorrent Sync using the default settings, name your device alias whichever you prefer.
 
## 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.
 
# Click the following link and BTSync will open and automatically link to the folder. BTSync Link
 
## 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.
 
# 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.
 
# 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.
 
# 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.
