firefokker 14 Posted April 2, 2010 Hi, Am new to these forums to cut me a little slack please if I seem to ask some obvious / daft questions (I'm sure ARMA 2 has it's very own touchy subjects like the 'Fastropes' and 'Ragdoll Physics' threads that regularly drive the Project Reality devs mad, and I'm sure I'll put my foot right into those here too.). I DID try to search for the following problem, with no results... Anyway, on to the point of this thread: A pretty major drawback when commanding armour is the fact that the commander's turrest doesn't have an automatic de-spin, so if you assign a target and the gunner obediently swings the turret around, the commander's view gets shifted from the observed target. Not really good in a firefight if you suddenly look into the opposite direction from where the action is... Any idea if this can/will be fixed? Cheers.

firefokker 14 Posted April 3, 2010 That link is a proper treasure trove for useful mods, including some very nifty ones for performance tweaking for those of us not blessed with high-spec gaming machines . (Am reduced to playing on VERY LOW setting, and almost cried with envy when I watched the Arrowhead trailer yesterday...Luckily I am old enough to remember the C64 days so I can live with shitty graphics if I get good gameplay...but man it hurts. Any millionaires out there who feel like donating a quad-core, 8 Gigs of Ram and a graphics card to suit? :rolleyes:) Thanks again for pointing out the PROPER site Tankbuster!

Tankbuster 1533 Posted April 3, 2010 It's my pleasure, comrade. :) You're absolutely right, it's a wonderful site and suits those in your position who need to save every single frame. After all, if you can save 1 FPS with a tweak, if you can find 10 tweaks, you're really making some progress. The vegetation tweak visuals and building tweak visuals are highly recommended.

firefokker 14 Posted April 3, 2010 (edited) Whoa, the frame rate went up from 16 FPS to a whooping 24! People with quad-cores and cryo-cooled graphics cards are going to laugh their arses off at the sheer patheticness of it...but I am happy as a pig in s**t.

ladlon 10 Posted April 4, 2010 Wow, thanks for the link. I too was bothered by the tank rotation thing, and that link contains all kinds of great goodies. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
