I've looked all over this forum for anything that would help. My FPS is just fine, however when in towns, especially the big ones I get a lot of artifacts (look like they come from the buildings) :( I've systematically sat here for the past 3 hours fiddling with all combinations of the video options in game to see if anything alleviated the problem. I've got latest ati drivers and running 1.07. Any suggestions or tips?

I'm afraid that doesn't work. I read something about how the latest ati drivers have been problematic so I may go back to one version that I haven't used 10.4 Didn't fix it. There are also disappearing ground textures, and disappearing buildings ---------- Post added at 11:25 AM ---------- Previous post was at 10:53 AM ---------- Operation Arrowhead has the same problems...

Could anyone create a face for OA for me? I'm basically looking for custom gloves, so it wouldn't be too hard.

odd, my guy refuses to do it, even on default controls.

thank you so much. I knew something was fishy when I installed the OA patch fine, and I knew I had to go to regedit, just didn't know what to do. Will Sprocket be fixing this problem for people who may download in the future?

Is there anyway to double tap W to stand up/sprint from crouch like in ARMA 1? Or was the deemed a little too gamey and removed?

fraid not, havn't played much for a couple years.

This has actually been a bit of a problem since OFP and ARMA. Taking a bike or motorcycle down even a slight hill would make you feel like you are on a trampoline.

How do I install the patch in a different directory? I have no C:, instead my hard drive is E: The patch's readme says by default the patch installs to C:. This explains why I'm getting the error saying the game isn't installed. How do I change it so the patch installs to E:?

pffft, is that it? In my state alone, we have nearly the same numbers (worst in nation due to all the dumb drunk rednecks, but it's probably best Darwinism takes care of them.)

Yeah I figured their website is being overloaded. Its working now. None of the emails have the serial keys I don't believe.

sprocket is not loading up for me. Am about to install arma 2, and I can't load the page with the keys... ...sigh I guess I'll just wait some more =(

I've checked the two gamestops in my area, best buy twice, target, and walmart. Obviously none of them carry it. :rolleyes: I went to game stop again today, and after looking on his pc, he said gamestops don't carry the game. (yet I can buy it online). I told him about OFP, and I bet he had no idea what I was talking about, outside of dragon rising....

Which would you like to see improved or added the most? Â I think I would have to go with the better AI. Â I'm sick of mowing down rambo wannabes. Real artillery would be great. You could operate the artillery by using a map were you select the area you want to fire on making it possible for you to call in a fire missions in MP. The ai could use the the artillery too like if one ai sees you the artillery guys will know the general area you are in and start pounding away.

what does NOE stand for?

Well in ofp you can find a bush or tree beside the road and put a satchel in the bush and just set it off when the vehicle goes by no need for the tank to run over the sat to blow it. I don't think you should be able to hide mines on a paved road. In RL mines are suppose to be a distraction to the enemy. Like the enemy knows were your mines are he can't go through them unless he takes the time to slowly blow them up or he would have to go all the way around them. Mines are primarily a defensive device. If your gonna blow up vehicles go with the satchel.

Bis could make the parachute an option in the mission editor so if you want to do a realistic mission you can drop the parachute after using it. But there will be an option of using the parachute all you want and it doesn't effect your movement like say you are playing a MP game with your friends and your doing stunts in a plane or trying to parachute onto a building.

SKD have you ever though of using the map editor to make a map with lots of guys an choppers? About the plane I think when it gets shot a couple times it wont smoke but then with more hits it will gradually spew smoke and when its about to explode from so many shots it smokes a whole lot and then explodes and you either die instantly or live for just long enough to bail out.

I dont think I would waste my time shooting at a m1a2 abrams with a m249 saw I would much rather use a satchel charge! I don't think some people realize that on the game you can actually pop tires on jeeps and trucks. It is very annoying if you hit a tree and pop your tire. It would be great if you could put a new tire on instead of walking the 5 miles back to camp.

I think the parachuting from helicopters is fine now. I just hope they can make it when you order your guys to eject that they all go out in order instead of all one big bunch and end up crashing into each other It would also be cool if we could walk around inside planes and choppers and so forth and like when you are in the air in a c130 or something with your squad you can lower the taildoor and walk out and then just fall and when you want to, open your parachute. that way you can do HALOs

I think every soldier is a threat to a tank. He might be packing a sat charge and ambush you later on or he could follow your tank a ways and when you have to get out he might pick you off but I don't think the ai is that smart. A bit off topic but I think a mass of infantry should be able to overwelm a tank.

I would like to be in a Huey as a gunner and be shooting in the treelines as we are taking off and a phantom flies by and dumps a load of napalm on the VC while the part "I'm on the highway to Hell!" comes on

Yeah you can already do this....to bad the gunner on a chinook in ofp cant bail out...poor sucker.

When you lean out of Rouge Spear you shouldnt show half your body if you align just right you can barely peak out showing nothing but your forehead and eyes. But I dont think ofp needs a "peek" button unless close quarter combat is improved.

I just shot my .22 some today at a target (It needs cleaning) and its been a while since I've last shot a rifle and you can see around the edges a bit but once i started shooting i paid no attention. I have to agree with major fubars idea for blurred out edges around the scope. But I think Bis won't care much about the scopes right now when they have to fix the ai up.
