Play without mods/addons first so you can see the vanilla/default performance. Try to lower graphic setting to normal-low, reduce the viewdistance... This PC is pretty old and CO is sucking your cpu power as if there were no tomorrow. Maybe stay away from co-sucking mods/addons until you got a better rig. :p:D

Try putting your video memory in your video options to default.. that should help the out of memory error.. I also don't think the mods randomly throws you out of the game.. might be a sync bug. Try Left Shift + Numpad - key and type "FLUSH" then it will throw out your memory cache and will come back in the game.

Good luck.

It's SLX. Something in it slows the game down and eventually makes it crash. Get rid of it and you'll be fine...if you want to keep it I believe theres a topic about the crash somewhere where it says which individual files you can get rid of to keep it from crashing.

Take out the SLX_VehicleEffects.pbo from the SLX addon folder.

[Beagle 684]

I recommend to never use any addon until the game is in it's final.

[skyman 10]

Thank you all for your responses, i will try first to take out the SLX_VehicleEffects.pbo and see what happens if not delete :( SLX.

Lol when will that be, there is a stable patch for both Arma2 and OA.

Final version for Arma2 is 1.08 til they decide to add another patch, same for OA its 1.57, and as far as i know they have released to beta patches for OA.

@skyman

In the @JTD mod there is a userconfig to adjust te smoke to how long it will run, if you reduce the smoke to a lessor time that will reduce lag and what not.

Also GL4 is pretty being AI and special effects has a initlization that starts up that could freeze your game for a few sends til its done.

@WarFX_Particles_Beta_1.41 is Arma2 version if your able to run OA or CO which Lingor needs then you could if you wish of course update to the next version which is for OA/CO http://www.armaholic.com/page.php?id=12975

[johanna 11]

CRAP. Have tested everything for two days now, satan!

I´ll be back with update on this...

[johanna 11]

Ok the game works fine i window mode, what the hell am i suppose to do?

[concurssi 11]

@Johanna, video memory on default?

[liquidpinky 11]

Turn down some graphics settings, especially AA.

[_radar_ 10]

I have 9GB of DDR3, playing on XR DOA server where they play Warfare ZeroG mod versions (with the addons from their Yoma sync server), my physical memory will look like this after a couple hours before crash:

Physical Memory (MB)

Total 9207

Cached 6229

Available 7587

Free 1367

While the green bar will only rise to 3.18 GB or so.

I'm so confused with the memory usage of the game.

[johanna 11]

Turn down some graphics settings, especially AA.

Yes, it seems to crash when i crank the graphics up...

Never had that problem before, maybe its the new cata.

gfx card 4870 x2 (2 gb gfx memory)

[Leon86 13]

2x1GB that is.

@ Günter Severloh

I already update WARFX, but it's any big difference between GL4 and WARFX, to keep just 1? probably 1 addon do the same as the other?

Thanks

[skyman 10]

By the way, since i intall the latest ACE version with SIXUPDATER this message appears on the initial ARMA screen:

Script userconfig\ACE\settings.ace not found

AND this one in game:

"OUTDATED: USERCONFIG\ACE\ACE_CLIENTSIDE_CONFIG.HPP"

[Gunter Severloh 4067]

but it's any big difference between GL4 and WARFX

Yes there is I would keep both, difference one has more AI and efects,

while the other is focused on explosions and what not.

this message appears on the initial ARMA screen:

Script userconfig\ACE\settings.ace not found

Ya you didn't install the userconfig for ACE.

So go into the ACe folder in your directory and inside it will be a folder that says store, inside of it is a userconfig,

that userconfig needs to be in your main Arma2 directory. USERCONFIG\ACE\ACE_CLIENTSIDE_CONFIG.HPP 2 folders then the hpp file.

"OUTDATED: USERCONFIG\ACE\ACE_CLIENTSIDE_CONFIG.HPP"

I'd like to assume that you dont have the latest version of ace.
