Vegetation replacement

Recommended Posts

Hello,

I'm playing ARMA on my Dell 1555 Studio laptop. I can run game with fine FPS in most cases, but vegetation is killing it, especially in Northern Sahrani.

I'm looking for replacement textures. I have lowplants11 in my computer, but can't install it - get errors. Tried re-downloading, but no success. I think installer doesn't like my Windows 7 64bit. Maybe someone has lowplants installed, and can upload it?

If not, is there another replacement low-end vegetation textures? I found some, but all links are dead...

Please help...

There is a mod that replaces with the OFP trees somewhere...

Otherwise, use smaller/different islands and maps. North Sahrani does chew the juice...

I reccomend the ACE OFP Islands pack.

Cheers

Stew

I know that mod, but all links are dead. Have you any working link for it?

Well, I already use ACE island pack, but I can't play single player campaign on other islands.

Hello laukejas,

my english is bad so just a few links for you :

http://www.armedassault.info/index.php?game=0&cat=addons&id=133

The "PROPER Plants" can help too :

http://www.armaholic.com/list.php?c=arma_files_addons_objects&s=title&w=asc&d=45

But the best way to improve the frame rate is diseble the "Shadow detail" in the right colomn of the "Advenced Video Options".

I have a old computer with nforce2 CM, a Athlon XP 3200+ and a AGP graphic card 7800 GS.

I play with the "Normal" default settings, just "Shadow detail" disebled, without addons,

and i have a descent frame rate.

Hope that help.

Have a good day.

PS : Stewy, thanks a lot for yours great "ArmA Photography". :)

Thank you for your reply. I have tried proper plants - but they don't seem to have any effect on FPS. That replacement with Operation Flashpoint textures is good, but it has serious problems with AI sight blocking - sometimes I clearly come out of bush, and enemy AI cannot see me. Any fix for that?

Also, many bushes are floating.

I think that lowplants would be good solution... could someone extract it and upload to some site, please? This one http://www.armaholic.com/page.php?id=2302

Because installer doesn't work on my Windows 7...

Never mind, I got it working!

But if any better solution is available, I would like to hear it...
