MY only problem with this and other Bi games is they cannot get the game to even out the odds when you go prone and see nothing and Ai still have Xray vision. I like the realism in 1 shot and medic revive but not when I have spent ages getting to a fire fight or stealth position only to be taken out from something that has absolutaly no sight of me!

I would like to see some kind of fading out of your character if viewed from a distance while laying down . Years ago joint operations had this and it worked very well, as you had to look very hard to spot them and usually only with binoculars or your own sniper scope.

Any way to turn eye candy like grass back on in EVO?

I will join your group of players unable to use any saves in any multiplayer senerio. Last night playing with 3 friends we finally got a save to work but all the tasks had gone and we found ourselves all unable to die! It got boring awfully quick but not before some of the wierdest things started to happen to the game world we were playing.

That's got it thanks! A big thank you.

''C:\ Program Files\Bohemia Interactive\ArmA\beta\arma.exe'' -mod=beta -nosplash This is what I have in the target. I was thinking should I uninstall the beta and QG then the install the QG then beta back in.

I do what you say in the short cut properties but the target does not allow to paste as this is not given as a option it is faided out. It is the DBE1 folder I take it that I should be trying to copy into it?

Gave that a try but would not have it. It let me apply it but would not launch.

No I have not. What files have to be where for it to work.I tried to move the contents of the folder into the laucher but was not able to. Do I just move the mission PBO files over into the campaign mp and single mission folders. But what do I do with the addon folder? I am now confused as to what you mean by your advice.

I have vista 64 bit and as such can only play Armed Assault with the beta patch launcher but when I install Queens Gambit I get none of the missions loaded in game. Does this meen I am unable to get those mission as I cannot launch 1.08. Please advise as to what I am doing wrong.

Can someone PM me the code for Captain as I forgot to right down that code and after clearing Cayo I got a corrupted save which always takes me back to desktop. The corupted save happened while I had captured AI active in transport and although I have been playing many versions for a while now I don't actualy remember ever saving while transporting AI before so I will avoid that until they are fully return as a precausion. I was using version 11 but now on 12.

Is there any way you could have an option to turn on  respawn at base with a limited save only when a town or side mission is complete. I find that this game often puts me in situations where I am surrounded and out of ammo with no escape so my options are limited to picking off the enemy from outside town rather than penetrating deep into towns armed with a heavy machine gun. And there is also the danger of making the mistake if you are not carefull of saving as a bullet from a sniper is on its way taking days of playing away. On a side note I have cleared 3 towns and last night while playing my radio stopped working and the ability to call for collection to base has gone so I will find it very hard to continue.

I decided to take the plunge and install 1.05 from 1.04 (505) but after reading all the negative posts about this latest patch I was very sceptical as to patch or not so left it untill now as my game was very solid on 1.04. I have to say that this must be a conroe/8800/Vista problem or a combination of one or other because I have found no decrease in performance or problems with this patch. I run the following View distance 2400 Terain very high object very high Texture normal post processing high Resolution 1280x1024 aa normal shader normal shadow normal blood high This set up give me a minimum of 40 fps and a maximum of up to 80 all on 1.05 patch. I see no major drop off on bushes or dense woods either . My rig is not overley high speck but it does seem to avoid all of the problems others are experiecing. xp sp2 32 bit Asus A8n 32 sli deluxe skt 939 ( latest 665 drivers with latest 1016 bios) fx 60 dual core at stock but with a lapped artic cooler freezer 64 with as5 ,keeps the cpu under 35c under heavy load. Aero cool engine case with masive air flow throughout. FSP 600w psu. crucail balistix 2 gig very low latency 2-2-2-5 1t dual channel asus  7900 gtx 512mb (riva tuner o/c to 700 mhz gpu 1700 mhz mem'. Set to quality in control panel. again kept under control to below 45c always in my case. with 93.71 drivers. H/d nothing special seagate sata II 250 gig but did have a recent defrag though. Just one more thing my bro got a e6800 conroe at 3.4 gig with a 8800 gtx and I beat the crap out of his system on this game but on 3d mark 05 I score 13568 he scores 31780 go figure!
