blacknite3d 3 Posted August 20, 2014 (edited) Here are my specs: OS: Windows 7 Home 32 Bit CPU: AMD Phenom II X4 955 Processor (3.2 GHz) Memory: 8192MB RAM Video Card: NVIDIA GeForce GTX 570 Now my issue: I have no problem playing singleplayer, I can even set it to fax settings and still get 60 FPS at a min., however when I go and join a multiplayer game it will drop to 40 FPS and then 2-4 FPS in less than five minutes, and in most cases it will just crash. Even the servers I am joining have less than 5 people with a ping less than 100 and I will still have the same issue. When I do LAN by myself my FPS will go down to 30 and stays around there throughout the mission. I am pretty sure I am at their recommended level in their specs so WTF? Solutions I have tried: I have setup my parameter to "-skipIntro -maxmem=8192 -maxvram=4042 -cpucount=4 -exthreads=7 -nosplash -cpuCount=4" and I have changed the arma3.cfg and set GPU MaxFramesAhead=1 and no difference. I have even set everything in my game settings to low or disabled and nothing. This is very frustrating... Edit: I would include my ArmA 3 RPT file but it is over 5mb and causes screen lag if I were to post the whole thing here...

It's not needed and "may cause unforeseen consequences" (quote direct from bohemia interactive) secondly arma 3 is just shit on AMD and no matter what you wont get better than 15-30 fps The mission is probably heavily scripted and has lots of a.i's. It doesn't matter about players that much. (This is for invade and annex and any co-op game) so try to find a good scripted mission Turn down your view settings to 1000-1500 for playing against a.i and 1000-1300 for pvp and make sure AA is disabled object detail low shadow detail- ultra terrain-high Lastly, please don't make a thread about this issue, there's a ton of threads and this just proves your laziness to research Limitz, Sorry about my English. It's not my forte Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
blacknite3d 3 Posted August 22, 2014 You must be new to ArmA seeing you just joined last month, your solution is garbage so please don't assist me in this matter. As for calling me lazy I did my research and that is how I came up with the parameters as stated above, so your attack on me is uncalled for. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

As for calling me lazy I did my research and that is how I came up with the parameters as stated above, so your attack on me is uncalled for. Why is his solution garbage? Those parameters wont do much. It's mostly placebo effect. You could try clock your processor some, but as the other dude said; AMD sucks in the Arma games.

limitz 10 Posted August 23, 2014 ok i'm sorry for coming out a bit blunt. Arma 3 sucks on amd... get over it. You also can't compare singleplayer to multiplayer as well, because they're 2 completely different aspects to the game. Multiplayer is rendered in realtime, if you didn't know that all ready. That means a.i from 15 kilometres out are being rendered while you're doing other stuff. That's how the engine works! If you want better fps in multiplayer turn down your view settings or play on a less scripted mission. It is as simple as that. P.S just because i just joined the forums doesn't mean im new to arma.
