bsohi 10 Posted June 26, 2009 While playing the demo, alot of the textures either don't load, or are hugely blocky and just plain ugly. Here's a photo of what it looks like, taken from Kujina. http://www.arkan.pwp.blueyonder.co.uk/DSCF0058.JPG http://www.arkan.pwp.blueyonder.co.uk/DSCF0056.JPG My specs: Windows Vista 64-bit 8 gigs ram ati radeon 3850 hd amd phenom 9750 quadcore processor. I've tried updating my drivers, but no luck. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

64fanatic 10 Posted June 26, 2009 (edited) was reading, I partly fixed my game, apparently adding -winxp to a shortcut from the exe will fix that, though that needs to be fixed. Edited June 26, 2009 by 64fanatic Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
GOZR 10 Posted June 26, 2009 8GB of ram here running server 2008 64 no problem on textures.. driver 182.50 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Thrawn123 10 Posted June 26, 2009 (edited) Hey man, I had the same issue and the recent 2nd 1.02 patch still didn't fix it. However, I found two ways of fixing it from browsing the forums here. :bounce3: #1 - Add -winxp to the end of the Arma 2 shortcut (that will limit the game only only seeing 4 GB of memory I think). or #2 - go back to older Nvidia drivers. I just uninstalled the 186.16 Nvidia drivers and installed an older version 178.24. That 100% fixed my issue and Arma is working with all my memory now with -winxp switch. ***EDIT 182.50 Nvidia drivers are also working correctly*** (So this really seems like an issue between this games and recent drivers? Wierd... at least it's working with no missing texture crap) Intel q9450 8 GB RAM Vista Ultimate 64 Geforce 8800 GTS 512 OC Edited June 27, 2009 by Thrawn123 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

willytee 10 Posted June 27, 2009 Okay im having the same problem. Here are my specs. -Intel I7 Cpu -9 gigs of ram -64 bit Vista -HD4850 graphics card. I have the Arma 2 shortcut on my desktop, i have already enabled it to run in compatability mode (windows xp). Still has not solved my problem. I also updated my video drivers. I messed around with the ingame settings and still havent figured out why it will not provide textures. alls i see is barely a few colors, and blocks. Can anybody please help me?
