Its your graphic card - no surprise it doesn't play well. Don't expect to play ArmA 2 on a notebook like yours, just like it won't play Crysis either..

Better ? ... Dunno - properly not. Funnier ? Hell yeah :)

In server.cfg, I belive you just need to check off these two: verifySignatures=1; // Verifies the players files by checking them with the .bisign signatures. Works properly from 1.08 on equalModRequired=1; // If set to 1, player has to use exactly the same -mod= startup parameter as the server. And then of course start the server with the same mods that the clients need to connect with.

Also check out the various FPS increasing mods. Like this one.. Got me from ~25 to ~45 FPS http://www.armaholic.com/forums.php?m=posts&q=7146

Hehe - that is so awesome dude. Any ETA on release ??

Awesome idea ;)

Cool mate. But - gametracker is free.

View Distance - without a doubt.

Some people recomend turning down "Video Memory" in the video options to get rid of the receiving bug.. Don't have it myself though..

No mouse lag: E6600 @ 2.8 GHz Core 2 Duo 4GB RAM ATI 4870 4870 used to be nVidia 8800 GT - no mouse lag there either.. No mouse lag: T6400 @ 2GHz 4GB RAM nVidia 7600 Go

You're right if you're right. We have no idea how many of these features actually make it into the game - game dev's can't be trusted (no pun intended BIS). If all those things makes it into OFP2 - damn right, it'll kick ArmA 2's arse. If not - it won't.

You bring one with you..

Roger that Fer - I'll make a pure-english stringtable one of the days then. Would you like a copy of it?

You don't need to add any command line switches unless you experience problems. Guys please do your research when advising in the troubleshooting forum: ArmA 2 Startup Parameters The -winxp switch is for use with Crossfire/SLI in Vista or Win 7 Maxmem command is used to limit the amount of RAM allocated to the game - but you don't need to use this unless you get "Out of memory" crashes (in my experience - these happen more often on servers than clients in ArmA 2)

A lot of problems with 2xx video cards and i7's have been reported.. If it was me - I'd get the 4890 as you suggested, but would stick with the 775 platform for a bit longer. The Q9650 or Q9550 is more than capable of running ArmA 2 very excelent. Furthermore - the Q9650 and especially Q9550 is pretty cheap these days. If you just do want to go i7 - I'd say go for the 920 - and at least try it out for a week before you start OC'ing (stock performance is still amazing you know) but stay CLEAR of the nVidia 2xx series then. The performance index of those cards is really amazing - but it's so incredibly unstable combined with i7's in several games.. Especially ArmA 2.. But of course - everything said above could be changed in a future patch.. Or not ::)

Not possible i belive, sorry :(

You don't "install it" per say.. It is a script that mission makers can integrate into their missions. So to answer your original question: No there is no other default spectator function than the crow. But most likely you will see community-made alternatives, such as Kegetys Spectator Script, that gave you all the "normal" spectator functions..

Great to hear of a F2 release :) Suggestion / Question: As a lot of people are running with digital-bought german copies with english language-mod - but you still get german text with the mission condition/AI skill selectors. Is there any way to force the stringtable to use the english lines? If not, that would be a nice feature for F2 :)

You really don't need to install anything right away, the game is pretty good as it is ;) Just make sure to get ACE 2 when it comes out ;)

Lying in a forrest in the night, waiting to ambush a enemy camp. Suddenly a team-mate said with a nervous voice on TS: "Ehh... I hear footsteps.. From behind" I turned around and spottet a AI patrol party. Two of our team mates put them to sleep with silenced weapons, after that we went on to ambush the camp and neutralize the artillery canons :) (the objective)

If this is multiplayer jumping around, its a FPS issue, its a server issue. Edit: Only way to "cap" FPS is to use vsync.

Just filter the server maps for Evo and pick the newest one, join and grap the map. Then its located in users\username\AppData\Local\ArmA 2\MPMissionsCache
