jpinard 10 Posted March 29, 2010 On a computer with 64-bit version of Windows 7, a quad-core processor and 6 Gig of RAM, do either of those parameters do anything if you're not running SLI? For instance if I set -maxmem=4096, will it use 4 Gig instead of maxing out at just 2? I think I read it defaults back to the 2 Gig switch if you put in anything above that. Also, for the winxp switch - is that only for SLI? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Alex72 1 Posted March 29, 2010 ARMA2 uses only 2047MB so anything above that reverts down to 2047. Nothing you do will change that AFAIK. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
suma 8 Posted March 29, 2010 -winxp switch forces the game to use Direct3D version 9 only, not the extended Vista / Win7 Direct3D 9Ex - the most visible feature the Ex version offers is a lot faster alt-tabing. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Cyborg11 10 Posted March 29, 2010 You can use the free RAM for a RAMDisk for ArmA 2 ;) Or start the game twice. :p:p:p Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
jpinard 10 Posted March 30, 2010 You can use the free RAM for a RAMDisk for ArmA 2 ;)Or start the game twice. :p:p:p Yep I'm going to do that. Though I wonder if I play as a server and sp if it will use more RAM? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
