Any help would be great Having the same issue now, but when it hits 8GB VRAM it just crashes. Did you find a fix for your case? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Dedmen 2705 Posted February 11, 2019 Did you guys try just setting your -maxVram startparameter to something less than 8gb? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Limiting the amount of memory will reduce the time when a problem occurs. Unfortunately, this has always been the case in Arma3. Whenever the arma3.exe 32 \ 64 process reaches any limit to the ability to use allocated RAM space, or unlimited RAM space from the user or the system, the FPS tends to a low value. How quickly this problem will arise depends on the nature of the battle, the speed of movement on the map of the area, and other events associated with high consumption of RAM. It is clear that the root of the problem is in a limited Arma3 engine. Is it possible to solve this problem at the current stage, it is not clear, but most likely not.

I recently installed DayZ Standalone Offline. I was curious to see the future development of the new engine. I spent several hours trying a single walk in the world of DayZ. I was impressed with the work of the new engine, and the distribution of the load on the PC components - CPU, GPU and RAM. But there is one "But", there is a drop in FPS familiar from Arma3. I hope that this is only from the server running on my PC from the DayZ Offline version. There are so many nice changes: - the ability of the character to get high and low aiming angles - high and low aiming angles, from the position of the body lying on your back - lighting, light propagation, restriction of light propagation on obstacles and other interesting solutions. Unfortunately, I have not tried it on any server, I do not like the MMO genre, sorry DayZ. Thanks to the DayZ guys for the new look of Chernarus, it was interesting to see it with my eyes. I look forward to the release of the Arma on the new engine. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

VRAM is the issue, not RAM. My idea was that Arma doesn't correctly detect the amount of VRAM it has available and crashes when it tries to allocate more than is available, I had that problem myself when I gave Arma fake amounts of VRAM in the 32bit version. Thus limiting it to the correct value might fix it. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

These Symptoms look like intensive Usage of Memory (RAM). Algorithms with heavy Memory Controller Usage are not using all the CPU Power effeciently (the Number of Cores is not very important to them). I am saying this as a Programmer who knowns various programming Languages (from Assembly to C and C++). I have seen the same Symptoms in all Games of this Series from OFP to Arma 3. All these Games are based on the same Game Engine (with different Modifications). Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Yes and has no effect still goes over. only two things i can do is run the game in 32bit mode or keep an eye on vram usage and restart my game each time it nearly gets full Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
