cobalt red 0 Posted January 22, 2014 (edited) Hey everybody, I have an issue I can't seem to find a solution for. It seems to only happen in the editor, but I cannot confirm this since it seems to coincide with loading times and I do a LOT more loading to preview in the editor than while playing the campaign. When I preview a mission it will perform horribly and then when I try to exit back to the editor map, it lags horribly and the mouse is invisible. I can still click on the menu options if I can manage to navigate the invisible mouse to them. The menus lag as well, much like when computers begin to lock up. Then when I try to close or ctrl+alt+del to close A3 it just goes black and I have to restart my computer. I can usually get a little bit of time and a few previews in before it happens, so it is not right away. By the time it happens I cannot ctrl-alt-del to check system usage because the PC locks up completely... I'm currently running: i5-2550k @ 3.4GHz GTX560ti 2GB 8G Ram Win7 64 Everything is up to date and defragged. This ONLY happens with arma 3 even after two re-installs. This has been happening for at least six months now but I only recently gave the game another try after all the frustration from last time and it's still there. If anyone has a solution I may have missed in my search, please let me know. I really want to enjoy this game for once. :( Edited January 22, 2014 by cobalt red Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
mamasan8 11 Posted January 23, 2014 While you are in the editor, doesn't the client render the gameworld simultaneously? I'm wondering if it's a heat issue? You could use MSI Afterburner to check system usage etc. Couple it with HWmonitor and you can monitor just about every component you have. In MSI AB, go to settings and On-Screen Display (OSD). Insert some shortcut to toggle it (Shift-F1 for example). Then in HWMonitor, click on 'configure sensors', go to OSD, click on whatever you want to monitor and put a checkmark on 'show value in OSD' and 'show label' (optional really). DO NOT PRESS 'Save & quit', press 'Minimize all' after you are done with HWMonitor. Quitting hwmonitor means you wont be able to monitor whatever you ticked. Ingame just press Shift-F1 and you should see all the goodies. With HWMonitor you can also create logs. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
