No, the "it" I have is the game. I DLed patch 109, not a patch for queens gamit.

No, I just DLed the updates, where do I find this "queens gambit" thingy?? I added the DBE1 in the target field also. never mind, I found it, looks like something I have to buy. hopefully not having this file, won't mess up anything.

Hi All, I reinstalled Arma, installed the 108, then the 109 updates. When I start up, I get: DBE1_hotfix requires addon DBE1 not sure how I lost this addon, anyone know what it is?

Hello Sash! Yes, same thing here; too much lag. I've got the 6600 duals, 2 gig of ram and a ok ati card, cannot run Arma. BTW Sash, remember us taking snap shots of each other doing flybys upside down in the A-10?? Got pretty low there a few times; the good days of OFP.

I know, this is a lame question, but how in the hell do I turn off my Macfee program?? If I open task manager to close, it will not let me. Arma runs very very poorly on my system and trying to do whatever possible to help the performance. thanks.

Glad I read this topic. I have Vista Home Premium and have been very dissapointed in the performance running arma. My specs are: dual core e6600, 2 gig ram, X-fi SB sound card, ATI 256gb card. I feel really stupid asking this, but is there another way of turning off programs besides going to start up/run "msconfig" and un-click the programs you do not want to run?? What is Indexing and how do I identify under start up to disable? I want to know what this "Aero" is so I can make changes also. Please help, i want to get this game running better and i know it will only take some adjustments.

Bunks, "my system is not working as it should", well follow up with some help. And speak in simple terms, some of us are not computer experts like yourself. I want to play the damn game with the computer I have, I'm not spending any more money. If 1500 dollars is not enough for a tower, then I'm re-installing OFP.

Guess I will put my complaint here. Arma is just way too laggy. Do I need to spend $2000.00 on a computer to run the game? I've got dual e6600, 2 gig ram, and a 256 ati card and the performance is very poor. My res is set on the very lowest, all other settings on low, and view distance on 800. I could handle all the other problems noted here, but not being able to control my aim because of lag just does it for me. When I bought OFP in 2002, my computer then was nothing special and the game ran fine. This game seems very cool, wish I could play it and enjoy some graphics and have some control over the mouse.

ok, i have an ati card and looked through my settings, any advice on what to set for better performance..? thanks.

Could you explain that again. I can make an adjustment on my card through the control panel?

I just bought a new computer. 2 dual e6600 w/2 gig ram and a ati vid card (forgot which one). honestly im not happy with the performance. I read here this game does not support the dual processors. I was hoping the patch would help this.

Hmmm, I think I messed up. I live in the US, bought the game here, DLed the international version upgrade to 1.08 and installed. Is that bad? is it the same thing? Because I don't see any difference in performance like others here are saying. what ya think...??

I checked best buy today and no copies, so i just purchased mine at walmart.com; i'll have it this thurs.

I think I get the best for processor and memory, the E6700 and 4gb ram - that should hold me over for a while. It better dang sure run AA.

Sorry, I did not bother to read all the replies to the question I wish to ask. I'm looking to buy a new computer in the next 2-3 weeks and wanted an opinion regarding processors. Do you think it's better to get the AMD 64, or 2.4 dual processors? thanks

I haven't seen a pic of the A-10 yet? It would be nice to see a "open house" type of pic at the airport. You could go into editor, line up some planes and choppers and take pics. BTW - any nuclear weapons??

I'm an American too and have enjoyed OFP for years now. I visit this forum every few days for updates hoping to see when AA will be available. Anyway, an off-topic question because I've been drinking some weak American beer (coors lite) and Jager...I'm very curious and wondering IF I will see Christmas trees all over near the holiday season in AA..? there better be. Hope BIS was clever enough to keep the addon to please us all in the small things that OFP had to offer. Enough of my supidity, cheers, Kdog~~

I see no topics here or curiousity of which jets we may get. F-15, F-16, F-18, F-22, F-117 and the great can opener would be nice. Heck, whoever hops in an F-22 (our un-fair advantage plane) will never die And I hope we will be able to load our own missles/bombs. Especially those rockets that drop out and turn the opposite direction; don't need to chase anyone that way And I want the "realistic" environmentally controlled cockpit too. Anyway, I hope the playability for planes is much better in AA.

how about a C-17...? For the last 4 years, I've only seen one addon for this. Their cool stubby transpo/cargo planes that could help out in AA...? Guess I won't get my F-22

Sir Yes Sir!!!

I think two of you here are taking me much too seriously. Can't I dream? Relax and get yourself a girlfriend. This post was made out of curiosity, just a thought...chill dude.

Oh Codarl is not being harsh, he's just jelious that my country kick's ass (read all the profanity); your damn right I'm proud, kiss my ass punky!! Guess all the mod-makers wasted their time all all those jets did'nt they...? Modern day weapons...did you read that? A proud American, Kdog

What I mean by standard is their most basic/cheapest joystick. I did all that you mentioned, I will have to do it manually, thanks. Kdog

Sense I've installed XP Pro, my standard MS joystick will not work and is not recognized. It worked fine with ME. Anyone have a driver/link they can post here to fix the problem is much appreciated I've done a search and looked through the most recent pages for info. Thanks, Kdog~

It's been a while sense I've posted here and really looking forward to AA. And to answer the topic question, I really wish that we were not bringing in any addons to the new game. This will discourage any newcomers who buy the game and and want to play online; it will be a big hassle for them. I'm sure they will want to jump right into a multiplayer game and boom!...ahhh kicked off because of addons; what a drag. This new AA game will work well for us OFP guys, but not the noobs. Just my opinion. Kdog
