Thx, didn't see that, sorry :P

[Bigtnaples 10]

You need DX 9

Was that to me? I have dx 10 and 9 I believe. I am running vista 64, but many games have installed additional things from nine upon install.

[XrProdigy98 10]

thats what i said bigt

i got the same thing with my GTX260

[Ddawguga 10]

thats what i said bigt

How about a seperate topic with a list of the download links for the demo? That would be nice. :)

[XrProdigy98 10]

idk man install the game tell us if you get that error 2 im reinstalling it now

[Ddawguga 10]

Ok dont re install i think i figured it out. You need an update that updates audio files from the old dx 9 that still run. Link to dl http://www.microsoft.com/downloads/exeValidation.aspx?familyId=2da43d38-db71-4c1b-bc6a-9b6652cd92a3&displayLang=en&hash=wp7jeMpxx83HxqHXPYI3rQnrqSVlkHyoVLVYOc1Ak0oJLTVb4kVCIKO2h5xtQ8SWi1665mPtB1L6E2j7agXKcw%3d%3d&ps=0&prs=95

From what i understand this should fix it. Hope it works

[XrProdigy98 10]

Listen everyone go to the Direct x website and update the latest drivers and it will be fixed

8 freaking hours to download. I'm downloading it from work and can't open up ports :-(

[GRS 10]

Fileplanet is giving me a 5 hour wait (3 now) so it'l be done right before I head off to work. Hopefully I break my curse and get no errors...

I'll post performance when I can.

Nvidia 780 FTW Mobo

GTX275

4gb RAM

Q9560 Quad core

Windows XP home SP3

[Ekre 10]

Maybe increase page file virtual memory?

it doesnt matter, the game's executable does not flagged to access more than 2gb virtual memory.

How about actually announcing this on your web site or in the News forums so that people in the 'try before buy' category stand a chance of getting it?

[Blackfox34 14]

Keep getting this error whenever i try to install

Unable to find setup01.bin.

Please keep setup.exe and all *.bin files at the same directory.

There is only one file...

Running Windows Vista Ultimate

I haven't read the whole thread, so I apologize if these questions have been asked before.

Is the demo worth downloading for those who already have the retail version? To be more specific:

- Does the demo contain anything which is not in the retail version?

- Is the demo a later build than retail 1.02?

I'm getting steady 1.17mb/sec on fileshack server which im suppose to be capped at 750 kb/s.

God i love Downthemall + firefox :D

I have a 512mb card but that should'nt be a problem since im running on a low resoultion but sometimes im experiencing crashes and freezes in the demo..

[MareNostrum 10]

any chance the demo could be put on Steam?

Edit: nvm it is on steam now lol

[-FHA-Dynamo 0]

the demo runs great on max setting for me.. but i am having some CTD crash issues.

seems to be in multiplayer only. the game runs fine at first, but after 30 sec it starts to lag alot then freezes.

I suggest downloading from steam before the masses get to it later today.

Edit: nevermind, just showed up for me on the ARMA 2 page.
