I enjoyed that, thank you. Also thanks for not requiring addons.

Yeah, I reported this a bunch of pages ago. Very useful feature when trying to navigate without constant map viewing. It has never worked except when a bug caused that feature to teleport the player to the shift clicked location!

I like the sound of that! I'd like to either fly to a hot LZ and have AI gunners hose the place down, or be the door gunner while AI nicely orbits the zone. Go a bit easy on the crew who might otherwise be shot dead instantly through the canopy.

As a fellow video game programmer, I can't recommend this technique for improving game performance. Sure you may see some more FPS but you are effectively overriding the schedulers priority for certain tasks. Some of those tasks are critical, so the more you increase that priority the more problems you will encounter eg. sound breaking up, networking disruption, background game processing such as terrain streaming effected etc. There is probably no harm in bumping it up one level but don't push your luck. Just a friendly warning because you really can't get something for nothing with shared system resources. Close other applications while running games and let the developers and driver writers try to manage the system. If this technique was truly effective, the developers would do it from within the game.

I know what you mean by eyepain. I can't stand the in game upscaling either. I just run the whole game at 1280x800 both 3D and interface. The interface can be set to very small. It is not great but the game is then a bit blocky rather than blury. BIS has improved upscaling on their ToDo list but who knows when it will be implemented. Also, make sure you turn off post processing for both performance and to reduce eye-pain due to all the bur effects.

Well there's your problem. Please drop your 3D or game resolution to 1280x800 (or similar) and watch what happens to your average and minimum frame rates. And yes, the game does have a performance issue which a good chunk of this forum testifies to.You will not break your LCD running this game at a lower resolution, and you don't even have to if you drop the 3D resolution alone. It will look bury and ugly but it will also become playable.

Most of the youtubes I've seen from ordinary people, which show good frame rates, are running at low resolutions. You can't easily tell the resolution from the tiny tube vids. Other than that, people are overclocking their systems like crazy to make this game perform.

Your video card is a weak point. Also, your CPU (which is the same as mine) will still struggle with this game. Please drop your game 3D resolution to very low resolutions like 1024x768 or 1280x720 or lower if possible. Put all other settings to normal except Anti Aliasing Off and Post Processing Off. Does that run smoother?

There is an unhandled exception when 'Run Beta' is checked, but no beta .exe is installed. ************** Exception Text ************** System.ComponentModel.Win32Exception: The system cannot find the file specified at System.Diagnostics.Process.StartWithShellExecuteEx(ProcessStartInfo startInfo) at ARMA2_Launcher.Form1.StartButton_Click() at System.Windows.Forms.Control.OnClick(EventArgs e) at System.Windows.Forms.Button.OnMouseUp(MouseEventArgs mevent) at System.Windows.Forms.Control.WmMouseUp(Message& m, MouseButtons button, Int32 clicks) at System.Windows.Forms.Control.WndProc(Message& m) at System.Windows.Forms.ButtonBase.WndProc(Message& m) at System.Windows.Forms.Button.WndProc(Message& m) at System.Windows.Forms.Control.ControlNativeWindow.WndProc(Message& m) at System.Windows.Forms.NativeWindow.Callback(IntPtr hWnd, Int32 msg, IntPtr wparam, IntPtr lparam)

Link no longer works, could you please host again somewhere. Perhaps use MediaFire if RapidShare has limits. I presume this file allows LittleBirds 2.2 to work with this mission.

Loved it, only disapointment was that it was too short!

Interesting. I know several civilian vehicle types seem to contain a bunch of soviet ammo, but does the red pickup come with weapons? I'm not interested in more AK or RPG rounds, I want big guns and launchers :)

Some useful threads, same topic http://forums.bistudio.com/showthread.php?t=78386 http://forums.bistudio.com/showthread.php?t=80659

It seems the truck doesn't carry near the ammo and weapons it use to. I used to drag that truck around as my mobile ammo crate, now I have to take care conserving ammo as I can't just spam gunfire / rockets then grab another gun / launcher from the back of the truck.
