moosenoodles 0 Posted June 11, 2009 Ok well I seem to have come across this issue where my CCC panel nor ATI tray tools setting Vsynch to "OFF always", does not do as its told with arma2. Arma2 is still locking itself to 60 frames in the games menu (obviously ingame as well, not that we get constant 60 anyhow lol). Can ATi users running both 9.5 and 9.6 post here to let me know how they are doing with vsynch off, use fraps or something to display the FPS in the games window.. Thanks, P.s if this is known to some of you or a problem with any drivers 9.5 or 9.6 and your aware of a fix, or maybe a arma cfg to set for vsync "off" do let me know. Cheers.

kremator 1064 Posted June 11, 2009 I experience the same..... vsync off but locked at 60fps. I'm running 9.6 (leaked) too. Not sure if its fixed in the cfg. Will report back. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Lee82UK 10 Posted June 11, 2009 I use ATI tray tools to create an Arma 2 profile, select "Vertical Sync Always Off (Vista Workaround)", that disables vsync :) Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
moosenoodles 0 Posted June 11, 2009 (edited) Do you need to create a profile? because I just installed ati tray tools then set it to always off, and that does not work.. Ah right i see the force option now.. hmm will give it a go :D, the start up params section is for the switches in ur normal shortcut i guess?

All I can see is "Always ON"... Am I doing something wrong? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
moosenoodles 0 Posted June 12, 2009 (edited) Here you go Yield, its here in the profile you make with Ati tray tools, just go back to manage profile and select the right tab you should see it. I get 130 frames looking at sky and ground now if need to claw back any fps while big battles going on till it dies down lol. Generally though getting anywhere between 45 and 80, with avg of 55 in most places at this time. I messed around with flip que size(ati) pre render frames aheas(nv) on my card to 0 lol I got no mouse lag using that and got no texture transitions when say running towards a village and the buildings stayed full hi res textures. Frames stayed aroun 40-45. Was rather suprised, but gonna check out the other end of the scale now with flip que 5 and see if my bandwidth crawls like a maimed soldier hehe.

evilfury 0 Posted June 12, 2009 (edited) Where is this flip que size to set? In ATT? EDIT: I found it. Edited June 12, 2009 by evilfury Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
connos 10 Posted July 16, 2009 I tried to do that, as you've described... All I can see is "Always ON"...Am I doing something wrong? I see the same thing. There is not any drop down menu to select off. Any ideas why? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Leopardi 0 Posted July 16, 2009 It's a BUG in catalysts... other options work neither, like AA or AF forcing.. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
connos 10 Posted July 16, 2009 It's a BUG in catalysts... other options work neither, like AA or AF forcing.. No i mean in ati tray tools when i try to create a new profile for Arma. From screen shots i saw there should be a drop down menu that you select on or off. Mine is showing only a tick option to on. I am using 9.7 beta leaked.

OverDawg 10 Posted July 16, 2009 Not trying to be smart of anything but why do you want more than 60fps? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
connos 10 Posted July 16, 2009 I don't care about fps. I don't want vsych and as others manage to disable it this way, i cant. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Machinist 10 Posted July 16, 2009 Getting rid of input lag is why i use it. 60fps is more than enough. Hell... even constant 24fps is smooth and playable in arma2. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
connos 10 Posted July 16, 2009 Any ideas why i can't see the drop down menu in Ati tray tools? Machinist what drivers version are you using? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

connos 10 Posted July 17, 2009 (edited) Mine 2!!! Go figure!!!!:confused: Edit: I found out that after version 1.3.6.1042 (May 22, 2007) that is what i have, there is a beta version 1.6.9.1386 Beta (April 9, 2009) that supports all versions of Direct X, so that must be. I will try it when i go home for launch. http://forums.guru3d.com/showthread.php?t=275077 Edited July 17, 2009 by connos Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

connos 10 Posted July 17, 2009 Ok i tried it and yes the beta version works. The game feels more smooth without v-synch enable. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
ViperNL 10 Posted July 17, 2009 (edited) Thank you so much! Now I can finally play with more than 60 fps. The game plays much smoother now! :) Edited July 19, 2009 by ViperNL Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
{sf} astra 0 Posted July 19, 2009 Yes, I got to say thank you, too. Runs much, much better now. Was trying almost everything. In ATT I just had two regular profiles (2D and 3D) but didn't use the game profile to force VSync off. Now, with your hind, its working and ATT is still switching between 2D and 3D automaticly. Thanks, mate :) Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Alex72 1 Posted July 19, 2009 VSYNC OFF and still 85 FPS even though im set to 100Hz. It DID work before 1.02 (i think it was 1.01 anyway). I know i had 100 FPS before. Now it doesnt matter what i do - 85 is top. With NVIDIA. Tested riva tuner VSYNC OFF etc. Didnt do too much yet to fix this, just saying i got the same prob.
