Thats why its the biggest mistake to release a game without ANY cheat protection imo. People eventually will get paranoia and be like "teh cheats could be everywhere!" (no offence wolf, i think your post is interesting). Thank God i've yet to see an admin kicking because of a sound mod message or something similar. But if that happens we got a serious problem. 2 Words: Vanilla ArmA BTW what are those version numbers about? I didnt get that.

Hotfix, Patch, i couldnt care less. Another bug bites the dust, thats whats important for me Good work BIS, but please speed up your bug fixing rate a bit

As long as the host is in Europe everything should be fine for you speed-wise...at least i get my 240KBs most of the time

clicky No need for a torrent i guess - you only got problems with gamershell right?

Pressing "Tab" should help.

Ok here we go. I was fireing up the editor and started my little testing tour at the south sahrani airport in a cobra -> 30-35 FPS While flying over Paraiso it was stuttering a little bit but nothing to worry about -> 22-25 FPS after some texture loading I continued to the south -> 30-40 FPS between Paraiso and the Cayo Desert -> 40-50 FPS over the Cayo Desert Enough for the south, lets take a look at the north side starting with Corazol -> 22 FPS most of the time -> around 30 between Cora and Bagango -> 22-25 over Bagango -> around 20 over dense forrests...i dont like forrest fights anyway VD 3000, flying with an Alt of 30-40m most of the time. I'm pretty fine with those numbers, everything keeps playable. I hope i could help you a bit with your decision.

Well, "pretty good" means a steady playable FPS I didnt run a test with Fraps in the last months but I can fly around in the editor a bit if you want be to. Gotta go buy some beer first though before the shop is closed

You cant go wrong with a Geforce 7950 GT 512mb. I own one of those babys and ArmA runs pretty good with high settings, except that memory surface crash bug thingy from time to time. But I've got twice as much RAM and a C2D 6300 so I cant say how big the impact on your performance will be. One last thing...those 7950GTs get pretty hot with the stock cooler and the sound is annoying so you better get a Zalman or something when ordering a 7950.

...and thats totally normal. Do some research by yourself next time. As good as every known problem with arma has been discussed in this forum... ah yea lol @ phone number

With external you mean an USB HDD right? If yes never install any games on it cause they are to slow for it. I use my ext. HDD only for MP3 and such things and the internal drives for games, windows n stuff.

Ummm yea I guess that could be the reason for your problem

Kinda reminds me of a guy a few years ago in UT: "Your Clan is using TeamSpeak? OMG u cheaters!" Anyway i get your point. ATM you cant do anything against people like this exept asking an admin to take care of that. If theres no admin around you can still look out for another server -> problem solved

Hi, are you using ArmA v.1.07beta+? If not, try it coz it seems to help some people with similar problems. You should also try some different drivers for your GFX, maybe even some tweaked ones (like this). Thats all i can think of atm...for more you can check out the other threads from users with the same problem. Btw maybe you should consider getting a new grafic card, yours is outdated and you wont have much fun with it in the future. Also remember that ArmA is NOT Fear, BF2 or whatever. Its got much higher requirements...

Hm...do you play any other Online games and suffer lags there too? I heared such things quite often back in my UT time. People with good pings had major lags and warping Characters and stuff... To say it short: I bet its your connection.

No more ghost choppers, yay! Hopefully I'll find some good servers to test this, a lot of them switched back to 1.05
