beugnen 10 Posted July 5, 2009 (edited) I have big problem.When i start game... Screen is black, but i can hear sound. I installed patch 1.02 and it didnt fix it. What can i Do? this happened to me. the game was displaying a screen resolution with an Out of range Vertical Refresh Rate[1]. i.e. attempting to display say 90Hz on a monitor that can only support say 60Hz for the given screen resolution. to fix (in my example below i use 60Hz for my 1680x1050 rez. check your monitor for recommended settings: .\My Documents\ArmA 2\ArmA2.cfg ------------------------------------ language="English"; . . . Resolution_W=1680; Resolution_H=1050; refresh=60; . . . -------------------- [1] not to be confused with VSYNC which is merely displaying the frames inline with the next vertical interrupt. it is quite feasible to have 50FPS, have it VSYNC'd so as to avoid tearing and yet the refresh rate is 60Hz. thats why i laugh at silly people who insist they are getting 100 FPS and yet their LCD is only capable of physically displaying 60 frames per second anyway (60Hz) regardless what they set VSYNC=on/off to.
