Editing graphics setting before starting Arma 3

Recommended Posts

So im having a lot of trouble starting up Arma 3, I have an okay systems that meets system requirements yet cant start the game (crashes and monitor goes on standby). Ive seen a few people saying that the game starts in as high a detail as possible (like most games) and I was wondering if there was a way of changing the settings before you start the game?

System

ASUS m5A97 R2.0 Mobo

4GB RAM

GeForce 210 - 512mb GPU

AMD FX8350 CPU - 4.0GHz

Go into my documents/arma 3 alpha/arma 3 alpha

it will be a notepad file ( if not open it in that) that has graphical options, give that a go pal.

Don't expect to run the game well at all though. A 210 is really low.

Yeah I've tried editing the arma3 config file I put the parameters for low settings in and all that happens on start up is my monitor goes on standby and computer becomes completely unresponsive. After waiting for a bout 5minutes I get a windows 8 error and have to restart my pc :/

I do realize that the 210 is bad, but I've seen people being able to play it on worse specs than mine. Any idea on how to fix this error?

Nope, you don't. The GeForce 210 is a 5 year old low budget GPU which doesn't even come close to the minimum system requirements (which lists a 8800GT as minimum). The Geforce 210 is by factor 6 slower than a 8800GT.
