Hello, three days playing A3 without any problem so far. Even on very scripted and usually slow server "Life" with 120 players i have very good fps rate. I dont know yet what was exactly my problem. Im suspecting an instalation of Intel Chipset Drivers of the motherboard badly done. Just wanna thank you guys for taking time trying to help me out. Best Regards. Owen

The game was restarted, the day after i was unable to play my usuals KOTH serv

yeah i know that, my question is : is it possible for a life server i played on to downgrade my fps definitly on other MP servers like KOTH ? Because the only thing that happens on my PC between good fps and bad fps issue was a 1 hour game on a heavily bad scripted Life server that caused me severe graphic bugs i had never experienced before. After that i never managed to got Arma working properly without reinstalling the OS...

Hi. Thanks for the reply and trying to help me. As i was quite upset i tried to reinstall W10 and it work. Now the game is running at 60fps on Multiplayer with graphics setted at "high" quality. Question is for how long ? I'll see. Im suspecting an Altis life server to be the origin of my troubles (see my first post). Im going to try to reproduce the trouble to provide some hints since i really do not know what caused the bug as i did nothing special to have this trouble except login in a very scripted server that caused me some strange graphics problems... Not very sure its tehe reason but if i can rely those two things it might be interresting for the community to know it. Best Regards. Owen

Tried out on the Showcase "firing from helicopter" : i got around 20 fps lowering to 15 when firing HMG (like 10 units involved plus two helicopters flying over fields and forest) view distance was set at 800m / objects at 800m/ Shadows at 100m.

Yep i use the x64 plateform, i got this line of command : -cpuCount=4 -exThreads=8 -high -maxMem=12288 -noLogs -noPause -noSplash -world=empty I also tried a bunch of settings in the "advanced" options, like hyper trading and all that (specifying the numbers of core etc, srry but my menu is not in english and i'm not sure how to translate all the options i have tried. With or without do not changes things for me, i had to say that when it worked at first none of those options where activated, i only start to try to tweak the settings when i thought it will maybe solve my problem. Thanks for trying to help. Owen

New profile set (i have tried this multiple time by the way), fps are still the same (very low) ans window defender is active, is it involved in the process ? He was active the first time when the game was running good, im gonna try do deactivate it to see what happen. Edit : No changes

What i do not get is how the game managed to work perfectly for two days, on servers with more than 30 people, playing session of more than 2 hours, how is it possible to use properly my ressources for two days and suddenly being not able to use them, first link do not correspond to that. Second link do not correspond to what i have, i know the 3 fps problem, i use to knew a server where it happens sometimes, but i never encounter that bug anywhere else. It has no sense, i could accept that my configuration is involved if it did not work from the begining, but again, i was able to make it work very fine for two days. There must be some reason... Besides that, increasing ressources and loosing hability to play the same game you played before with a much less powerfull PC is just a shame. So bassicaly all of you are just saying i have put 800 euros to upgrade my PC for nothing (unless i forget Arma 3 forever) ? Owen

Seriously ? Nothing ? I mean are you sure ? Did you have an explanation, because if i cannot play it anymore, at least i want to know why ! I'm really pissed of that i cannot play the game anymore, i got like 3 DLC on it a a bunch of friend playin' it. How is it possible to suddenly being so slow with no apparent reasons... ? Did you have some hints on that ? If you have the same problem, maybe we are a certain number to encounter this trouble and it could be interresting to signal it to bohemia's support... if there is one.. thanks for the answer anyway...

Hello guys, i hope to find some help here after looking in the forum in different topics i think this topic is the good one that will (maybe !) help me out with my frakin' performance problem : Fisrt of all please excuse my "french" because i'm not a native speaker. Was running Arma 3 (3700 hours of game) on a Windows Seven, Intel i5 first generation, 8Go RAM and an NVIDIA GTX 960, for years FPS were fine, quite low in cities when playing MP (30 fps) bust mostly correct the rest of the time. Recently i decided to upgrade my PC, so i'm now running on a Windows 10 pro, Processor Intel i7 7700k, 16 Go RAM and same GC NVIDIA 960GTX. Everything was GOOD, graphics in Autodetect was upgraded (vew distance, objects etc) and i was about 40/50 fps in cities, 70/80 the rest of the time, i was very happy, game was beautifull and fluid like i never could imagine, it was a very new experience for me. I played two days like this, enjoying a whole new Arma. One night i decided to connect on a "Life" style server i like to go sometimes (most of the time i play on King of the hill where i like to do Helicopter transport) FPS and graphics were horrible like i always experienced it on this serv' with my old config, some textures where missing, some entire objects where missing, i was walking through walls etc... So i reboot the game, reconnect on the same "life" serv and game was still very slow (10/15 fps). I decided that this serv was shit and i lived it. The day after I returned to my favorite KOTH server and shit started to happen : i was not able to run Arma 3 on more than 20 Fps even in an empty serv (and not in cities). No matter if my settings are lowered i always get this shitty FPS while game is ugly as hell. I tried reinstalled it, clearing my profiles, no changes I tried to reinstalled my Graphic card, no changes I tried to reset graphics pilots, no changes I tried every tweaks possible to use my x64 and all that shit, no changes. I tried to say to my NVIDIA Setting to always use GTX960 to run the x64 Arma 3.exe, no changes Since this day i'm not able to run arma correctly, the game is even worse than before (old config i5 etc) I'm so tired i'm ready to deinstall it and forget it forever but i have to admit that my entire PC gaming has been dedicated to this game (almost 4000 hours of game, damn !) so i'm really pissed of and don't find anything on the internet, hope somebody here will be able to help me, otherwise I only have to pray to God. One more thing : DayZ is running good, other games are running very good (i tripled my FPS on War Thunder for exemple) Thanks for the reading. Peace Owen
