Hi guys.. right no I don't wanna be a spaming mp noob.. but I have noticed that the old way of importing .ogg files in to player folder and creating a folder called Sound not longer works? whats new? whats changed? Cheers Postal p.s and I did search "custom sounds"

Madmossy yeah think u hit the nail on the head there.. ok well tested the memory dimm one @ a time all tests passed on both.. sticks.. reseated them put them both back in.. and no errors.. Â sweet also ran Pc check http://www.eurosoft-uk.com/ which I nabbed ahum borrowed from work.. and all passed there also.. and found that the 2mb i'm missing on my memory was due to having memory hole enabled in the bios.. which is no biggy now i know where its gone.. but I may disable it at some pont.. Â cheers for all ya input guys. p.s Sorry Geil for slaging you off... but your customer service is still shit!

Guess that was the reson for all the off-set errors and CTD I have been getting in ArmA. Right one gig it is then   and I'll add a Bigger page file as i'll be a gig down. Geil seems crap 2 diffrent rigs in 2 years and one dimm out of the 2 packs of 1 gig sticks have failed. guess thats what u get for skimping.

Hi Guys.. ok I know when you have a faulty dimm.. its best to get it replaced... but @ the moment with it being xmas and i'm skint.. basicly after I noticed I have 2048mb of ram installed and windows is only showing 2046mb.. I thought humm somthings a miss.. so ran memtest 86... ok it passed the first few cycles fine. So left it on all night.. now I have 3 fails and 12 passes.. the 3 fails failed on test 8 which is the ones and zeros test.. is this a biggy? or do you guys think it would be ok to run like this for a few more months? 2x1 gig Geil memory one dim faulty.

U know u may sometimes hear spam from other players online line I dunno some tune playing.. or a qoute from a movie.. well the play who is playing them has made the sounds in imported it into the game.. by creating an ogg file.. and putting it in there profile.

I agree.. and to the ppl who are sitting back complaining about all the bugs and doing nothing to help the situation.. I have a question.. arn't you guys.. the ones asking for this game to be released as soon as? cut them some slack guys.

Not getting an issue myself.. what Graphics card are u using? and are you prone while using binoculars and sniper.. maybe theres some grass in the way?

Not even gonna waste my time voting.. its obvious what Highlander wants Poll choices Votes Statistics 1 change anims to ofp for fast shooting. 2leave arma anims as they are good for campers. 3none of the above. Two sensible options and one just put there 2 flame.. if u don't like it fucking play something else.. Just so happons I like it as it is. And no i'm not a camper! yet another 12 year old poll. damn wasted 2 mins of my life replying to this piss!

Yeah you have a problem.. I work with this crap every day.. Im a diagnostics engineer currently for HP.. but previously on dell, IBM.. this is defo a hardware fault.. first off I would test your memory this is the most likley causes if the IRQ error.. but has also been know to be a motherboard fault. sorry for the bad news. 80% memory fault I would say.. theres lots of free memory test software out there.. but do not d/load a windows installation memory checker as not all the memory will be tested as windows keeps a big chunk for its self.. try mem test 98+ http://www.memtest86.com/ lol sorry just fully read your post.. if u have used memtest with no errors then m8 I would save up for a new mobo.

Had that problem Ages ago not with ArmA. but another game.. try reinstalling your Display Drivers.

Still getting CTD when in a mp game.. this is getting on my tits now.. see's to of gotten worse with time.. did a fresh install when patching to 1.02 and had no issues.. then the day after got a few CTD.. and now its happoning all the time ffs.

SB Audigy 2ZS sound card, Nvidia 7800GT graphics card. German Retail copy of ArmA any1 know whats going on? Problem with the EXE but why and how?

All I can think guys who are having issues installing the patch is.. do a fresh install Delete the arma folder from the C:\Documents and Settings\user\My Documents. and delete the 6th sence folder that will still be in your installation Dir ArmA. reboot!! install from scratch close all running applications.. d/load a number of patchs 2x 1.01 but each from a diffrence sorce that way if one is corrupt use the other.. same with 1.02.. after a successful install.. patch to 1.01 only if you have the retail copys and not the d/load.. if you have the d/load install straight to the 1.02v.. Â ok so after a successful install- retail copys install patch 1.01v and then 1.02v and see how it go's remember the chez to english patch.. and german to english patch you need v0.9. and yes it should work fine with a update from 1.00v straight to 1.02v but that didn't work for me so i'm just showing ppl my way to see if it helps.

Yeah I also had some issues when installing the patch.. I have the German retail copy.. I found that installing the 1.01 patch and then the 1.02 patch works fine.. Don't know if installing ArmA, to a diffrent hdd has anything to do with the files not being able to be verified, from 1.00 to 1.02.. so basicly if u are having trouble just install the 1.01 patch b4 you install the 1.02 patch. what copy do u own? and do u have it installed to the default Dir? Cracking patch though.. not getting one CTD now.

Don't matter just read Sickboys post it answered my question i was gonna address
