James763 1 Posted June 12, 2012 Hello, I have recently upgraded graphics cards from a HD Radeon 5890 to an ASUS AMD Radeon HD 7770 and since upgrading to the new card I am having issues with textures in ARMA 2 OPERATION ARROWHEAD. I have ARMA 2 also and for some reason those textures are not affected and I can play fine on ARMA 2. I'm running windows 7 Processor: AMD Phenom II x4 955 processor 4 CPUs 3.2ghz Memory: 8GB Direct x 11 Graphics card: ASUS AMD Radeon HD 7770 Performance wise the game runs fine, and im getting 40-60 FPS however the issue im getting is the textures disappearing and flickering when in game. Here is a small video i created to demonstrate the problem. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=vi86amrLsP0 It varies between 3rd and 1st person and I honestly do not know what is happening. I presumed by upgrading to a better graphics card the experience would be better but it has become worse. Anyone know a fix for this? :confused: Thanks James Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Leon86 13 Posted June 12, 2012 5870 to 7770 isnt an upgrade, it's a downgrade, 5870 is much faster. anyhows. what exactly is the issue? the bright light for half a second? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
James763 1 Posted June 12, 2012 No what happens basically is the shrubs and trees in game disappear, it doesnt make sense, i dont know if its a setting option on my graphics card?. Its like the texture file doesnt exist but i re installed the game and that didnt help its simply in arma 2 combined operations. Heres a better video to show you what is happening: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=3VRbAM_QC2U If you notice when in 3rd person there are no shrubs on the ground and you can see where they should be in the shadows. However in 1st person they are there but i get a white edge around the tree textures Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
