    "Commander" mission buggy?

    Yes, I had the same experience with version 1.04. My workaround was to switch to the incredibly unstable 1.05 and kill a couple of enemies more. And hey presto! Mission completed! I had to do the same thing with the Alligator mission. Play most of the mission in the reasonably stable 1.04, and switch to 1.05 when you are close to completing all the mission goals. For some reason, 1.04 is stuggling to detect when a mission is completed...

    1.05 prone to crashes

    I can confirm that the Vista and 8800GTX combination doesn't work very well with ArmA. I bought the European 1.04 version, and I got lots of freezes and CTDs in the beginning. The main problem turned out to be related to my TrackIR4, so when I disabled that device and set my graphics settings to High (used to be Very High), everything went very smoothly and I only got the occational hang upon exiting the game. Â But I could always kill the ArmA process with the Task Manager. Upgrading to 1.05 made everything worse, however. I got LOTS of crashes, both in-game and while loading a game. The textures were also sometimes corrupted, both in the 3D view and in the map view. Â But the biggest problem was that I couldn't activate the night vision goggles after I had loaded a saved game! Â This made it impossible to finish my current campaign mission. So I had to switch back to a fresh 1.04 install, and everything was working much better (except for chopper control etc).
