stanhope   411 Posted March 15, 2019 Hi and welcome to this forum.  As a general rule do not use any special launch parameters. The only things I launch my arma with are: -skipIntro -noSplash -world=empty. And none of those are really to improve your performance. The more important question is what are your graphical settings set at? 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

EDcase   87 Posted March 15, 2019 Have you tried lowering the res? Lag spikes suggests low memory or internet speed problem.  Are you playing in multiplayer or single missions?  In the startup parameters try different options for the 'Memory handler' Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

stanhope   411 Posted March 16, 2019 If you've got 2 monitors simply have task manager running on the 2nd. If you don't install MSI afterburner or similar tools so you can get it in the overlay. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
