I had the same problem. In my case I realized that Arma2 kept detecting 128MB of video ram(I also have 8GB of RAM). Check arma2.cfg - localVRAM=128974848;nonlocalVRAM=128974848;. Also in game I was unable to increase texture details from normal quality. Manual change of values didn't help. solution - I removed nvidia 185.85 driver, rebooted a installed older beta driver, rewrited values to 780MB of localVRAM and 2GB of nonlocalVRAM. Everything fixed ;) on Vista buss 64-bit

old one - search before posting read this forum

Our CSF clan is planning new server based on this system: PIV 2.4 GHz ASUS P4SDX, SIS 655 chipset 512MB RAM Gentoo linux (100Mbit for 1.5USD/month lol ) Is there any server admin experienced with OFP on SIS chipset mobo? Problems, performance, stability etc. ?? We'll buy it tomorrow, so quick response would be helpfull.

check your DNS and your fully qualified domain name problem is that IP 80.1.206.187 is not resolved for any hostname - and this is necesary (for 99%) if u have any domain, than assign some secondary level domain name to this address like 80.1.206.187 - ofpserver.myowndomain.com or contact your provider and ask for a hostname in his domain Easy to understand ? I hope so.

there is no reason to run DirectX 9.x version on gf2mx! remove it and use 8.1 version 2nd thing is to use older drivers - 12.41-those were stable and runing fine ps. don't forget to use via 4in1 drivers pps. set your agp aperiture size in bios to 32 or less

I thing that OF reinstall can be the best(fastest solution) that u can do at this moment. If it doesn't help, try to update your drivers.

as I told u ... OF server MUST have correct DNS settings. This is the first thing that should be checked if the server is unable to start. But post your settings .. that may help someone in the future.

on win, u should, at least, try to set correctly your DNS setting(once this was the problem) be sure to have server.cfg file something like this: passwordAdmin="12345"; hostname="Testing Server."; motd[]= { "Welcome.", "Bla bla - edit as u like it" }; MaxMsgSend=128; MaxSizeGuaranteed=512; MaxSizeNonGuaranteed=256; MinBandWidth=131072; MaxBandWidth=512000; voiceOverNet="false"; maxPlayers=6; kickDuplicate="true"; motdInterval=3; voteThreshold=0.33; reportingIP=""; voteMissionPlayers=0; class Missions { }; This is the minimum, that config file should contain. Later u can use more precise config file .. search this forum - it has been discussed many times here.

on linux run : ./server -config=server.cfg -port=2302 >> out.txt 2>> err.txt and check err.txt

1. be sure to install as root 2. run: sh server-1.91c.shar 3. possible problem - u have to transfer files to linux binary otherwise files are not "the same copy" 4. be sure to copy fresh installation of OFP - no addons (you can add them later) what is your distribution?

1. As BIS net-devel. told me, RedHat 9 has incompatible library, so do not use it for dedic. server until BIS announces new version of the server. 2. I've had the same problem under linux. U need properly set this:  1. network card configuration  2. etc/hosts file (DO NOT USE "space" but TAB key!!)  3. if still the same probl., than run NSCD - name service cache daemon   (very simple to use, just read readme) => shoult work fine And I think it is the same problem under win, so just correct your DNS and hostname settings.

My Radeon 9700Pro and Cat 3.4 => moon landscape. I'll try to disable w-buffer in radeonator and let you know the result.

Thank you. But I'm not happy to know this

I've some questions (on Linux server): 1. How to DISABLE personal sounds? Only sounds, not faces. (not MaxCustomFileSize) like CustomSounds=0 2. How to require higher version of OFP ? e.g. does exist something like MinClientVersion to put in server.cfg 3. This one is for win client : What parameters to use for direct connection to a server? To skip the menu. e.g. : FLASHPOINTRESISTANCE.EXE - server:xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx:2302 -pass: xxxxx I was searching a lot, but couldn't find these THX.
