ArmA2 Demo Release Today - 2PM GMT - 3PM CET - 6:00 AM PST

Anyone have any idea how to turn off the blur?

I think it may be lessening my frames per sec quite a bit,

I am running a 2.3GHz Quad-Core CPU, 4gb DDR2 Corsair XMS Ram, and an Nvidia 9800GTX+ I would think it would run better than this.

[J0cke 10]

People who have downloaded the demo, please post your performance and system specs! Thanks!

I can post some results in about 2h.

My specs are

Q6600

8800GT

6GB DDR2 800Mhz.

You must use no blur addon from armaholic.com

Go to Video options, press Advanced and switch postprocess effects to Low or Disabled.

CAnt seem to get the noBlur addon to work... I put those two folders in the install directory then added this to my shortcut under the "Target" area.

"C:\Program Files\Bohemia Interactive\ArmA 2 Demo\ArmA2Demo.exe" -mod=noblurA

the game starts to launch then kicks back out saying "corrupt data"

Wow im impressed, i expected it to run like crap but im able to play everything at high-very high no problems.

Im just having issues of getting dizzy and the affects are making me sick? how do i fix that?

@GunnDawg09,

Somehow I doubt that it will work with the demo, or any 3rd party addons for that matter.

@Russianguy,

go into game options and push the head bob slider to the left.

[CplBlakeman 10]

Is the demo eventually going to be available on steam? I only ask because I have downloaded many other demos from there and the download system they have works beautifully.

That and a lot of my friends don't trust torrents or rapidshare regardless of what I tell them.

Yet another demo mirror:

http://www.v2.fi/pelit/tiedostot/947/ARMA-2/

The site is in Finnish, but it shouldn't be too difficult to figure out the location of the download link. :)

Wow, visually it's looking fantastic without any lag.

HD 4890 though..

Are cap limits something that most people have in Russia?

Here in Sweden no one have it except those who have mobile broadband. My broadband connection is 8/1Mbit and that is considered to be a bit slow over here.

Read my location:

Auckland, New Zealand<<

Not Russia

Yes..

Core 2 duo @ 2.13GHz

Nvidia GeForce 9600GT

2GB ram

Vista 32 bit Home Premium

Runs very smooth at Medium, and also acceptable on high and very high:) To be honest i'm actually surprised about that, due all the comments regarding performance in the full version.

I can see BIA put much effort into this demo, Despite a couple of small bugs. The parachute controls are bugged after you open the command interface, that's the only thing I've noticed so far.

Downloaded the demo from the games.on.net mirror, installed and every time I try to run it I get this error.

"This application has failed to start because X3DAudio1_6.dll was not found. Re-installing the application may fix this problem."

I've already tried re-installing the demo, but still getting the error.

I'm on Vista 64-bit Home Premium, anybody know how to fix this?

I think they have improved it somewhat it seems coming from the demo. I expected the opposite but so far its running very well for me

[ampd 10]

how do you figure out your computer specs?
