    Crossfire performance

    What he is saying is you should try renaming Arma.exe to fear.exe. I believe this works for crossfire too. Isnt it closer to 90%?

    Heli and Jet HUD's

    Thats the one I'm talking about too. Only the Harrier and SU-34 has a HUD I believe.

    Looks like high brightness to me. Try setting it down to 1.0 or even 0.9

    SLI and Direct X and FPS

    Just happy it helps I believe most of those programs are a scam because I've never heard of them improving anything except fixing simple "wrongs" with a computer and thus the result of the fix improved on the performance and not necessarely the program itself, but thats a different topic. Please stick to SLI with Arma here.

    SLI and Direct X and FPS

    Because Arma isnt such a "big game". Its not enough eyecandy value in Arma for Nvidia to prioritize it. I guess they dont see a non-mainstream game as worthy the effort in order to promote their videocards. Nvidia is doing the optimizations.

    VTOL?

    You said it. Arma is a simulation. Its going to simulate STOVL. Its not just two more keys added to set altitude. Its a little bit more complicated than GTA It has already been anounced that it will be present in the 1.05 patch. All good things comes to those who wait (usually).

    Cd Key

    We all know that it should never have happend and BIS have already acknowledged the bug and are working on it. Meaningless bickering wont speed up the process. Closing.

    SLI and Direct X and FPS

    No, the reason SLI doesnt kick up your fps more than that is because when you create a game-profile in the Nvidia CP it doesnt add any compatibility flags (optimizations). That can only be done directly in the profile with a tool such as nHancer. FEAR is running with alot of different optimizations in the driver that Arma also benefit from. Here is the meassured result for Arma on my machine. The card is a GF7950GX2 and the same settings are in use in all three tests. Single-card config: 30fps. SLI without optimizations: 40fps. SLI with FEAR's optimizations: 55fps. Here you can see that by enabling SLI gives you a slight FPS-improvement, but the real performance-boost comes from the compatibility flags in the driver. There are 31 of them and unfortunately there is no info about them except a very few have the names of some games in them. So I'm not about to start testing all kinds of combinations there to see if I can push the performance further. Most likely it is as fast as it can go (going from 30 to 55 is close to twice as fast).

    Armed Assault videos

    Sh1fty, WL1 for flamebaiting. The France Army/surrender stupidity got old a long time ago and is not tolerated on these forums.
  21. If you make a post seeking help with a troubleshooting issue you must post your system specs if you expect any kind of help. And please do not post a DirectX report, it's a mass of gobbledegook which is mostly meaningless. You should include as a minimum something like: CPU Graphics card (make, model, driver version, onboard ram) Sound card  (make, model and driver version) RAM (how much you have) ArmA version (which language, which patch) DirectX version (all should be using 9.0c anyway) So if I was going to make a troubleshooting post regarding my home PC I would post: AMD XP 2800 CPU Radeon 9800 XT 256mb with catalyst 6.9 Onboard Realtek AC97 soundcard with driver v A3.95 1GB Ram ArmA 1.01 Czech DirectX 9.0c
  22. List of common issues and basic troubleshooting is available at Community Wiki Troubleshooting FAQ page Problem: Fix: Download and reinstall DirectX here. Problem: Fix: Applies to those using nVidia nForce LAN - don't use it. Use the other onboard card (if available) or a different networking card.

    SLI and Direct X and FPS

    I have noticed the best SLI profile for Arma so far is FEAR's. Quick way to try it: rename arma.exe to fear.exe.
