sgtlobster06 10 Posted May 12, 2011 http://img405.imageshack.us/img405/6057/dsc00704j.jpg Ive been having this annoying problem since updating the steam version to 1.18 (win 64 bit). The RC and final 1.18 patches arent changing anything. I dont need to update my drivers or my video card (the game worked perfectly pre 1.18) Please help!!!

novafluxx 10 Posted May 12, 2011 OK, in your Steam Library, right click on Arma in the list, select properties. Click the local files tab Choose Verify Integrity of Game Cache. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
sgtlobster06 10 Posted May 12, 2011 After doing that, things only got worse, the main menu is a series of grey colorless backround fixed with horrendous framerates and choppy music, and the menu icons appear as black splotches Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Gunter Severloh 4070 Posted May 28, 2011 What are your computer specs? OS CPU GPU ramm another option would be to uninstall and reinstall. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
viper[cww] 14 Posted May 28, 2011 It's got to be down to specs, that's an awful looking picture, I feel for you :) Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
sgtlobster06 10 Posted May 29, 2011 Well no its not my specs, I had been running the game perfectly for about a year, then i transferred over to 1.18 (steam version) and all these problems started happening Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Gunter Severloh 4070 Posted May 29, 2011 Post your specs anyways, should always post them for graphic related problems. If anything uninstall and reinstall. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
sgtlobster06 10 Posted May 29, 2011 I use Windows 7 64 bit, I have 4 gigs of ram, I3 processor, I have a crappy Dell integrated graphics card, but again thats not the problem - also i have uninstalled and reinstalled at least 30 times (no joke) Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
kalkain 10 Posted May 30, 2011 I'm also having a problem with the new patch. Specs Windows 7 64-bit I3 4 Gig Intel integrated graphics (i think integrated graphics cards are having trouble with 1.18) I would say its my gpu but I downloaded the demo a few months before the patch and it ran like a dream, no hiccups. I finally get around to putting down a few dollars on a great game and now it crashes at the atari screen. I've uninstalled everything (Arma and BattleEye) and reinstalled it. Do i need to uninstall anything else to make a clean reinstall? I've also found the crash files (.rpt). Does anyone know where i should send them? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
sgtlobster06 10 Posted May 30, 2011 It definitely not my computer, i ran the game perfect before 1.18. Kalkain do you have the steam version of the game? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
kalkain 10 Posted May 30, 2011 yes i bought off steam Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
sgtlobster06 10 Posted May 30, 2011 okay so were both in the same boat, cool. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
kalkain 10 Posted May 30, 2011 the demo, which im guessing was 1.14, ran perfectly. can we revert to 1.14? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
sgtlobster06 10 Posted May 30, 2011 Thats what Im trying to find out, I may not be able to play online with my clan (they use 1.18) but at least I can play Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
sgtlobster06 10 Posted May 30, 2011 (edited) Can Bohemia post the 1.14 version on steam for a few days then go back to 1.18? I would greatly appreciate it Or could we possibly be given Sprocket versions of the game? Edited May 31, 2011 by sgtlobster06 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Gunter Severloh 4070 Posted May 31, 2011 I've also found the crash files (.rpt). Does anyone know where i should send them? Got game crash? Do this http://forums.bistudio.com/showthread.php?t=110823 Submit to Dwarden your crash and issues. As for steam, id uninstall the game and get the game on disc, then you can revert all you want.

sgtlobster06 10 Posted May 31, 2011 The game isnt crashing, its just performing abysmally I dont have money to spend on a game I already own. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
SWAT_BigBear 0 Posted June 7, 2011 W7? How would a Steam user tell the ArmA.exe to "Run as Administrator"? I do not have Steam. It may or may not help. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
