I'm using the latest version of Armory. 0.96.3-beta
Ok, so here are some tweaks I made to get it working (sort of). I ran a custom CLI arg: armory --satoshi-datadir="where\my\blockchain\is" and that made it work. I tried navigating in Armory Settings: Bitcoin Install dir: to my usr\bin where the armoryqt is, and my Bitcoin Home dir to the same directory as my node. Didn't notice a change with either of those, but when I ran the custom CLI arg it connected to the blockchain, and was good to go.
However, I went into ~/.armory and made an armory.conf with the CLI arg, and armory won't launch now I get this error:
Usage: ArmoryQt.py [options]
ArmoryQt.py: error: no such option: --armory --satoshi-datadir
