    I didnt get the handle leak problem with the 7.3 installed 7.4 played 40 / 50 mins handles didnt go above 300 ? I read on another forums someone suggested ati leak seem to be more common with intel cpu's ? rather than Amd

    Specs Amd 4600 x 2, x1950xtx, 3 gig. XP home sp2, beta patch, maxmem @ 1200.

    Runs very very well.

    I'm also trying to find the best settings. Above i was testing with all normal, except postprocess high and shadows off. Just tried the predefined normal-setup, so pp was set to "low". Therefore shadows were enabled to "normal", and AF and AA were lowered to "low". Tested with convoy ambush sp mission. Frames were playable. Though from time to time just 15-20. But that was in the woods with the burning convoy and some infantry, so i think i can live with that. I really would like to enable pp, cause its a nice feature, but it kills my performance in the woods. Now i have shadows enabled, not so bad. Gonna buy a 1950xtx with 512 meg ram, hope that will give some more room for higher settings.

    Hang of on that 1950xtx. I have a x1950xtx and have the same problem you have since 1.05

    I’m experiencing very weird problems since 1.05. Lost fps & sound and while on some servers a couple of players where saying they had no control over what they where doing?

    Then it happened to me. I was driving a tank and it started to skip forward and back, Id change to driver view and it put me in gunner. So i stopped playing " as in controlling my character " So he jumps out of the tank goes for a run, Fires some shots changes to iron sights and fire, Runs back to the tank, gets in and proceeds to drive ?

    What the hell is going on with this game since 1.05. I post very few topics here but this must be my 3rd since 1.05

    Did BIS make a pact with the Devil?

    Hi

    Overall I had a drop in performance with 1.05 fps ive posted on the 1.05 Causes performance Hits. Im also losing sound! Played online last night and server changed map and my sound was gone. Restarted arma and the sound was back. Also played on different servers and had the same problem. Starts ok then they disappear don’t hear trucks but I hear the birds - don’t hear bmps hear gun fire? This was all online haven’t tried SP haven’t changed audio settings.

    Tried audio eax & hardware disabled = same. Haven’t used any type of sound mods done a clean install of arma. Have being running German ver 1.02 didn’t have this problem. Don’t have this problem in any other software. When it happens I alt&tab and sound plays fine in windows. Don’t have any 5.1 surround setups.

    While online I asked other players was anyone loosing sound one replied yes!

    Sad to say ive seen a big drop in preformance, lost 15-20 frames when i checked with fraps. And the textures look blury and washed out ? Allso lost sound ? truck sounds come and go all i can hear is birds ? Not a happy camper

    This is from 1.2 the only thing that seemed better was the texture load time. banghead.gif

    Just reading through these i never new it was a xbox engine i thought it was pc 100% wow how crap is that. It makes a lot of sense why it runs so bad. Ive 3 gig of ram and havent played ArmA in about 3 weeks, basicly because i got games that run perfact on my system. Look forward to the next patch and hope they manage to optimize it more for ram usage.

    Try to set 640x480 with no anti-aliasing and low details. You'll be then able to even move in the woods...

    Sad to say that we all are experiencing the same problem. Maybe the game was intended to be published first in 2009?

    Has anyone with 2gb of ram tried higher settings for maxmem like 1200 instad of 1024.

    I havent tryed =1024 will try it when i head home in a hour and let you no on 1200

    Im running it on a Amd 4600 x 2, 2 gig, X1950XTX 512mb and its runs terrible compared to any thing else i run. So i will try a couple of the tweaks and let you no. Strange thing it does'nt matter what settings i run it at (Low or max ) i get the same slow downs in the same places ?

    I tryed the 1024 and 1200mb and it made no differance. Armed is only useing 270.00mb ? is the correct ?

    It's using 270MB in the menu (heh), but when you're on the island, it's about 7-800MB.

    I loaded it up, Played a mission Ambush the convoy. Alt & tab and its arma.exe = 270mb if i load in a save game from the campain its 380mb ? The problem i have is its loading textures all the time while playing thats whats slowing it down, they should be loading them into ram since i have 2 gig! would it be useing the video ram instead of system ram ? X1950XTX 512mb

    512mb & 270mb = 782mb ?
