funkee

seems like problem is solved guys :) download the latest beta patch (current build 58899): link, go to your ArmA2 config file (username.ArmA2Profile), edit it and add line: "mouseSmoothing=0". now enjoy ArmA2 without mouse lag! you can play even on current 1.03 servers :D

tested ArmA2 1.03 on both Windows XP SP3 and Vista Ultimate X64 SP2. performance is much better on Vista + no more mouse lag after installing latest beta patch :)

I would like to add, that this command "mouseSmoothing=...;" should be added to the config file by default. set to 0 really helps, but movement and performance are still very bad. so if u guys want the mouse lag decreased, you have to go Documents and Settings\your_profile\ArmA2\my_documents\ArmA2\your_profile.ArmA2Profile, edit this file with a notepad and add line "mouseSmoothing=x;" where x = 0 edit: on Vista X64 game runs much better for me than on Windows XP and mouse lag is almost gone with mousesmoothing=0 :D finally!

expansion? lets make the game playble first.

news from devs: :p "Patch 1.04 for ArmA II is currently in progress... ...A couple of prioritised areas we're hoping to address for 1.04 are "mouse lag" (this is something we've not been able to reproduce locally but we believe there are a couple of things we can do to help the situation for those users who do seem to suffer from it), the second area we're prioritising is improving performance, especially in urban areas, of course there will be other things addressed in 1.04 but it's too early to go into details about those just yet." so there is a little hope, but personally I dont believe they are able to fix this. this is not mouse, not O/S, not even hardware related and mouse smoothing or v-sync has nothing to do with that. must be a huge game engine bug that exist since ArmA1. all we can do is wait for 1.04 and see.

thx for your explanation Shinobi. my best ArmA experience was Berzerk, Evo and one cool CTF map, but i dont remember it's name. generally, i think human vs human modes are the most enjoyable. about the AAS - i gonna check this out :)

whattt????? there was a lot of cool trailers and interviews arround the net (especcialy on Youtube). I think A2 was promoted great. the problem is it's poor performance (even on best GPU's), mouse delay, horrible movement and campain bugs. thats why ppl just dont buy the game. and i hope this is the last one based on BI's Virtual Reality "the next generation" engine :P

its a shame for developers not for a game. and multiplayer is suckish as well. I enjoyed much more ArmA1 than this.

"Next Generation Game ArmA 2"? lol! :D

well, I've just bought my ArmA2 505 Games polish release yesterday in Empik. The price was 69 PLN = about 23$, which is very attractive for a new game. however, my first feelings are mixed: performance much worse than in demo, mouse lag still somewhere, poor looking weapons and death animations, cheaters destroying maps, and all that 2 months after german release... i'm kinda disappointed. the things that suprised me positively are vegetation (incl. animals and water) and sky, which is pure awesomeness. well, lets hope for some improvements in 1.04 (wishful thinking) and cu on the battlefield! :coop: :681: -------------------------------------------------------------------------------

bearable but sometimes annoying. there are many typos but i don't care, i just try not to see them :D (to be honest i noticed them only playing Berzerk so far).and switching between english/polish is not possible :( you can always move to Poland :D with some euro you would live like a king here :D it may be difficult (to have fun) but thank you.

notice grass and vegetation are from A1. thats why u are getting such a good framerate.

:459: you can do it! congrats :D

i think i saw you yesterday night on Berzerk (my nick was fatal) :D

lol... wishful thinking. i know gtx295 sucks in A2 since this is a dual old gtx260, with only one core utilized. 285 is much better solution now.

reporting corrupted sounds (first SP mission) after installing 1.03. performance still much worse than in demo. besides, after uptading my video driver to 190.38, im gettig such a screen when the game starts: at least the framerate is finally great :P --------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

I'm very disapointed. 1.03 works much worse than demo. I feel kinda sucked in.

so where is the video??

lol :D

AAS pvp??? could you be more clear? thanks.

i cant imagine this game without Berzerk. hope some good ppl can transfer it to A2...

nVidia or ATI controll panel --> 3D settings --> vertical sync. and i'm not buying the game too (gonna buy used for half price) if the problem is not solved.

:459: we are on the TV guys! :D

honor/rank system only in cooperative mode like players vs bots (f.e evolution map) and only in current session (if you change the server you lose your rank). there is nothing similar in multiplayer (players vs players).
