Try switching the SLi rendering mode to AFR 2, Alternate Frame Rendering 2. I do believe this worked for ArmA, or perhaps it was SFR (Split frame rendering). 8800GTX SLi works fine with AFR2 on my end though.. You could also just try renaming the .exe to crysis.exe

DrBobcat; I too am using 185.85. Switching from AFR 1 to AFR 2 gave me about an extra 40 fps when running around on Chernagorsk. I think the Crysis profile included in the nVidia drivers switches the drivers to AFR2, which is why people are getting massive performance increases. I guess I stumbled upon the cause! :)

If it is possible (I don't know how the GTX295 works, if it's pretty much SLi) but try forcing it to Alternate Frame Rendering 2 in the nvidia control panel.

in the nVidia control panel, force alternate frame rendering 2. Both the auto, SFR and AFR 1 settings were giving me shit performance, AFR 2 works flawlessly, however I do seem to get hit with strange flickering (due to HDR/bloom it seems like) sometimes. Still however, much better.

The volume of fire they now give off, suppression, voices and general combat atmosphere is much improved. They seemed to cover eachother advancing, they were flanking and just generally felt 100x better.

Just did a test battle, about 40 friendlies and 100 enemies.. The AI is very impressive.

Newer drivers fixed the problem (ish) FPS increased, so I can set the fillrate higher.

Seriously guys, thanks for the suggestions, but.. However, to continue upon the issue at hand, can you name one fucking game that does this bullshit? It should look like it does in the last screenshot there just at 1920x1080, and it doesn't because somehow its doing it at 640x480 or something.. Complete and utter bullshit.

Just bought ArmA2 through the digital german download. I have a massive problem regarding the graphics of the game, its like its stuck in 640x480 resolution or something when trying to play in 1920x1080. I'm running two 8800GTX in SLi, Q6600, 4GB Ram- Windows 7 x64 RC1 (7100). To demonstrate. Here is a scene at 1920x1080.. this is with 50% fillrate. It looks HORRIBLE. Everything else is pretty much at high. Here is the same scene at 200% fillrate.. 5 fps.... looks good now.......... Here is the same scene at 50% fillrate, but at 1440x900 resolution. Looks just fine now.. There is something majorly borked with the 1920x1080 resolution.. atleast on my end..

I too can report the bug of having 2-4 fps when viewing the weapons purchase console at the border. If I play without the SLX mod, it goes away, however with it the same issue appears. Any ideas?

Nope, no change. I usually do 4500m, but lowering it to even 1500m does nothing..

It seems I cant get any grass or anything because my Terrain Detail dropdown box doesnt show any other options except "Very Low" What gives? 8800GTX Q6600 4GB PC6400 Ram ArmA 1.14 (QG)

Im trying to install this on ArmA 1.08, and it tells me I don't have the addon CAA10. What gives?

Agreed.

Been away for a while. have the mod tools been released yet? Kind of sick of retex addons..
