MobiusOne 1 Posted December 20, 2011 Awhile back for some reason my options for video memory and textures got locked at normal settings. No idea why this happened, and I'd really like some help. The issue is on my installation of arma 2 and OA. I got OA through steam and I got arma 2 through the green man gaming free arma event. Things I've tried: Re-installing, deleting every scrap of arma I could find and then re-installing, tried finding config files for graphics settings but all I saw was some stuff I didn't really want to mess with lest I break the game more. Tried updating video drivers as well and that didn't change anything. Any help would be greatly appreciated. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Dwarden 1126 Posted December 23, 2011 please retry with 1.60 patch for OA and 1.11 patch for A2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
MobiusOne 1 Posted December 26, 2011 Tried with the patches and they didn't fix it sadly. I've run out of ideas on things to try, but I really want to get this fixed. Just bought the PMC Dlc as well because I've been wanting it but the bug carried over to it as well. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

.kju 3245 Posted December 26, 2011 did you update direct x? did you update the GPU drivers? (since last time) did you try a new arma profile? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
