You can actually assing axis from ALL CH controllers into a single virtual joystick that's visible for the game, I'm myself using Fighterstick + ProPedals to play ArmA. And you don't have to assign anything to mouse axis, I have X&Y in stick, Z is the stick throttle slider and rudder-axis in pedals is R-axis. Just make sure you have everything set from different controllers into same CM Device ID.

What's wrong with the dedicated servers? Seems like they keep failing, runned 1.08 dedicated on my IBM R52 laptop (~1.8GHz Pentium-M, 1GB of memory) and had no problems whatever, Evolution running for about 3-4 days behind password, but for some reason, maybe after the latest "Microsoft's Black Tuesday" something went wrong?!? Now the arma_server.exe dies every time there's something for the server to do, that's Evolution when something starts to happen, that's "built-in" coops when something starts to happen... And my server is not the only server crashing, anyone else noticed this?

Got it to work: Uninstall Reinstall 1.05 patch 1.08 patch NoCD So most likely the problem is with Securom. My DVD-drive is Serial-ATA Samsung SH-S183A with firmware SB03.

I see just a hourglass "pointer" and the process arma.exe dies... Reinstalled windows - Nope Tried 1.08RC - Nope That fixed exe - Nope (Same size as the one from 1.08RC, same?) Running E6600, WindowsXPSP2 with latest hotfixes, GeForce 8800GTX (tried drivers 158.22, 162.18, 162.50 from Guru3D). Uninstalled ArmA again -> Reboot, registry cleanup, file cleanup, reinstall... 1.04 (505 version) works. 1.05 International Update works. 1.08 (1.05->1.08) does not work. 1.08RC does not work. 1.08 "Fixed" exe does not work. Updated firmware to my DVD-drive and tried the same again, nope, does not work... Just receiving the same thing with the hourglass, task manager shows arma.exe running for about 2 seconds and then it just dies, no errors or anything. Without the DVD, securom tells me to insert the DVD, but when inserted and retry, same thing, arma.exe just dies. Tried "nocd" executable as well, but it just gave me another error, something about C++ Runtime thingy, but atleast it tried to start the game... Any ideas? I'm running out of those!

Argh! Same problem, just hourglass and the process arma.exe dies... Reinstalled windows - Nope Tried 1.08RC - Nope That fixed exe - Nope (Same size as the one from 1.08RC, same?)

Wondering if there's an easy way to "disable" tanks if all crew positions are not manned? This would make the tanks to work as they should, not as one man mobile-camping-platforms.

HUD in aircraft is almost invisible during daytime, as you can see in my video ArmA_Flying.avi. Shouldn't those modern fighters/choppers have some kind of automatic brightness adjustment for the HUD? :)

Great news! Would be great to have it as different .paa file for armpatch thou. I've added some dirt to make my squadlogo look more natural in vehicles as you can see in this picture. Edit: Another pic.

For me setting Anti Aliasing to Low helps in bushes.

Never seen armbadge? Maybe 1.06-> ?

Has someone tried 158.22 forceware released May 2.?

Please tell me how to overclock 96 Stream Processors to 128 and 320bit Memory Interface to 384bit? I would like to overclock my GTX to say 150 Stream Processors and 420bit Memory Interface! ;)

Got the CTD finally... Anyways: 2007-04-26 19:36:20 - arma Frames: 362379 - Time: 7970944ms - Avg: 45.462 - Min: 8 - Max: 61 That's in Evolution with

I didn't notice any big fps difference in cities, forrest nor flying with Ansiso low-very high, so using it as very high... Gnat: NVidia recommends uninstall - reboot - install - reboot method...

Mirrored Dr_Eyeball's rar-files @ http://rekyyli.pp.fi/kuvat/arma/maps/

I can host these on http if I just get hold of them.

WinXP... But there's also Vista-drivers with same fixes (?).

Did some testing as well... Settings as: 30 minutes of flying in littlebird around sahrani, no CTD, no framerate-dropping, FPS 25-60 (VSync On), 25fps only when loading textures. Mostly around 40. I don't know about you, but I cannot set Terrain detail to "Very High" if viewdistance >3750m?!? Well, does not really matter because almost all servers limit it to 1200meters or so... Edit: And the specs: Intel C2D E6600 @ 3150MHz (1400MHz FSB), 2GB DDR2-800 (700MHz), Inno3D 8800GTX (Core 630MHz, Memory 1025MHz)

I've been using trackir for about 4 years or so, mostly in IL-2, I have Tir3Pro+6Dof. When I started to play ArmA, using TIR was natural, no problems with sights at all, only bad thing in it is that now I would like to have it in all first person shooters My axis values in TIR: Yaw: 0,7,8,11,15,18,18,18 Pitch: 0,2,8,11,15,18,18,18 Roll: 0,3,10,15,23,27,27,27 (I use this for leaning instead of X Axis) Other axis not in use. Those might need some tuning but I'm too lazy to do anything BIS should add some kind of eye-fatique if you look through your ironsights too long, atleast for me if shooting, say 150m/10 rounds and I try to do it as well as possible, I need to focus my eyes to horizon after a few shots for a moment. And this is IRL.

I think it has something to do with the serverside rule MaxBandwidth, atleast I would have done it so...

There's a little bug in GPS, found this out on Ber(Z)erk server, I got to helo as a pilot, turned on the GPS, died, and the GPS kept on, didn't try to just go in as pilot, turning on the GPS and getting out, might work as well?

Did some high-resolution caps, settings quite high... ArmA_Footage1_1280x960.mkv Some generic tank-thingy in BIS tank coop... 1280x960 6000kbps x264 with 128kbps 44kHz LameMP3 Stereo, Filesize: ~38MB, Lenght 50 seconds... ArmA_Footage2_1280x960.mkv Short clip of Ber(z)erk Hold running on the field... 1280x960 6000kbps x264 with 128kbps 44kHz LameMP3 Stereo, Filesize: ~76MB, Lenght 1min 43seconds... Try Matroska-pack, CCCP (Community Collected Codec Pack) or VLC player to play. And I wont do any smaller versions because then the idea goes away...

VOIP not working most propably has something to do with the client/server being behind a NAT, in LAN it works...
