  1. I had this error as well when the patch was released.

    Install your game again and then patch it. That solved it for me.

    --------------------

    Quote[/b] ]Amazon.de for example.

    Yeah, im just wondering if its cheaper at some other german stores who ship outside germany?

    bol.de is pretty cheap, but Amazon is cheap as well with 42€... or how cheap you're expecting this to be?


  2. Quote[/b] ]cause the german one seems buggered brutally by securom or whatever protection system it uses

    that has been fixed with the patch. most people are rather pleased with it now unless they run hardware on the limit and still think they have to see further than 4000m or so...


  3. I hope you get this sorted Sickboy, you've done a great job so far... notworthy.gif

    Just saw this in the readme...

    Quote[/b] ]1.01 - Fixed: Modified config test is obsolete and no longer supported. Use verifySignatures=1 in the server.cfg to verify data are not modified by clients. Note: this currently prevents using any 3rd party addons as they are not signed.

    I guess this will include the language.pbo and the bin.pbo cause since the patch they are in capital letters in the dirs... icon_rolleyes.gif


  4. The file should be 1.854.399 bytes.

    So I guess the patch was not properly applied (which is strange since you say there was no error output)

    hmm this is weird then... but it is in captial letter etc. since the patch. However, it's working now and I have to go now and enjoy my virtual "ergüsse" tounge2.gif


  5. Hi guys, I've bought online ArmA 3 days ago and I've wanted to play it. After 20 mins (low details, AA and AF and Shadows disabled) I start to see extremly low textures on the ground and buildings and If I want to exit it remains on reciving screen (very low resolution) and I have to shut it down it with Task Manager.

    My PC specs

    AMD Athlon XP 2500+ ~1.8 GHz

    1 GB of RAM

    250 Hdd space

    ATi Radeon 9800 pro 128 mb (driver date 24/7/2006)

    Microsoft Direct X (last version)

    Any help? what should I do? Should I update my drivers or change my video card?

    your specs are on the absolute borderline to play this game.

    try running the game with the startup parameter "-maxmem=VALUE".

    Quote[/b] ]-nomap is an Operation Flashpoint Startup Parameter, which forces OFP to avoid memory mapping for file access.

    Flashpoint only. This 'switch' has no effect for Armed Assault and is not relevant for, Armed Assault. Potentially, use -maxmem for similar intended results.

    While memory mapping is very efficient from a performance point of view, it can quickly fill all available virtual space, causing various memory allocation errors or even driver crashes or freezes.

    This switch is especially important for users with display adapters with large amounts of VRAM (128MB or more), which reserves a lot of virtual addresses in the application address space for themselves.

    for example "-nosplash -maxmem=1024"

    (what VALUE you use for maxmem and what it best for your rig you need to see for yourself)


  6. Ok i am just wondering if Morphicon are sure they can fix the issues with the hotfix, and does anyone know where i will get this hotfix from once its out. I must say i am more then disappointed that the German version has these issues.

    the fix was ready last night already. However, they found another minor bug and they are adding that at the moment. I was told that the fix should be available later today. You will find it also on ArmAmods.net soon as it is ready.


  7. So much for the guys here that said waiting so long was fine as we would have a near flawless game. I dont see how such a problem can be overlooked. Hopefully they resolve this ASAP.

    Morphicon actually had the fix ready yesterday. The found another small issue and adding that at the moment. I was told that the fix "should" be available later today.


  8. I'm so happy for the German fans! Here in Canada we can only grunt and wish Santa knew what Armed Assault was. That is because there is still no distributor for N. America!

    It is hard to believe they can't find one. Heck, if I had the money I'd do it for them.

    Maybe they can't get past the Homeland Security folks in the USA because it is a war game. smile_o.gif

    If you had the german SE you wouldn't be happy at all. Most of the people get CTD's and get dropped from the servers with the message "original games don't fade...". Morphicon is aware of it and they will try to include a fix in the "hotfix" they are working on that causes major performance issues in the german version compared to the czech version. So you can be happy you don't have it yet.

    (Placebo as well btw, cause people would rampage this fourm atm) tounge2.gif


  9. Low frame rate is caused by issues with the Securom copy protection, hotfix will be out shortly.

    this is getting pretty sad now. I am sure the publisher is to be blamed.

    yes they are... or better the way how securom was implemented and how it constantly keeps checking for the disc in the drive. However, Morphicon is working on this with all resources and the fix should be out asap.
