Yep, it's a bug and has apparently been discussed before. Can you please provide some information:

- What are your system specs (CPU, RAM, gfx card etc.)?

- What Arma2 video settings are you using?

- Have you tweaked display settings for Arma2 in your gfx card drivers?

- How often have you experienced the fire bug?

- Have you experienced it only in multiplayer, or SP aswell?

Thanks very much for the answers. I will be attempting to help the devs fix this bug by finding reproduction steps for it, so any information on its occurrence is helpful. :)

AFAIK, this is a mission specific bug. Evolution and Domination suffer it. It happens every once in a while, but its also clientside so everyone doesnt see it.

Actually, from what I've gathered it's not mission specific. People have reported this bug on other missions. I think it's just most common to Evolution and Domination because of the nature of those game modes. Anyway, for a bug to be mission specific, it would have to be caused by a script in the mission. I find it highly unlikely that both Evolution and Domination contain a script that cause this bug.

As far as I can tell, the bug probably has something to do with JIP'ing into a running game where certain types of vehicles are burning. At least that's currently the most logical explanation.

I've seen this bug a couple of times as well. Now that you mention burning vehicles, I think I do remember burning MH60 wrecks whenever this happened...
