ok downloaded better drivers and now it doesnt do it nearly as much as it used to and the game runs ALOT better...

ok which one of those should I download I am not too sure and I will get a different gfx card then and go from there...

Realtek AC97 Audio... I do believe thats what soundcard came with the computer...

Now my game will totally crash to the desktop and then give me a windows error message saying sorry for the inconvienience blah blah blah it happens all the time when i am in the middle of a fire fight what could be wrong?

I just bought the gig tonight and I am putting it in tomorrow and I was looking at the prices of gfx cards and I think I will get a new one in a few weeks. And what I did was I created a new folder in the ffur program files folder and named it afganistan and then put in the addons folder in that... after that I created a new ffur shortcut and did all the other stuff and it would appear that it would work but what it would do is take me through the ofp resistance menu... I did everything how I was supposed to... or so I thought...

ok back to the topic of mod folders..l. I did everything that smiley did in hopes of making a mod folder for ffur so I can get the ffur effects and well having a mod folder. Everything went well except that it pushed me into the regular ofp intro screen and not the ffur screen? Is there something I am missing here... please help...

finally got ffur downloaded and installed for the 3rd time now and ran it for the seconed time without any mods or addons and it ran flawlessly so that means one thing. correct me if I am wrong but I really think getting the extra Gig of ram will really solve my problem along with the creation of addon and mod folders and I should have a smooth running ffur... I really miss some of the effects mainly sound and blood that ECP had but I just cant stand the old character modeling and animations... Is there any more suggestions that you guys would like to make feel free to do so... thank you all for your help...

ok ummm well... I really like the character modleing in ffur but I absolutely love the effects in ECP and I dont know which one to pick for main use. Which one should I choose? I think I am going to hold back on getting a new graphics card until after I see how the game runs with a whole new gig of ram installed. anything else I should know or any opinions on which program I should run? I will download them both and sit on it till I hear some opinions and suggestions...

ECU Runs soooooooooo much better than ffur and the effects are alot better too but one thing I miss about ffur is the smoldering house effect when you hit them with explosives... but its a small price to pay for smooth game play...

thank you very much for your help guys I will let you all know if everything runs smoothly!!!

ok I am downloading ecp and I am going to see what that is like. BUT!!! what about mod folders and what is the deal with them. would somebody like to explain to me how to make them and what they do exactly...

Ok I uninstalled OFP and deleted all of the mods I downloaded and then reinstalled it and ran some sp missions with the patch and it runs smooth as silk... Any suggestions or comments?

oh btw all of this happens in ffur res and cwc...

Ok heres the deal... I have played operation flashpoint elite since its release date back in oct or Nov... and I decided to buy the pc version... I talked to alot of friends and they told me what stuff I will need for the basics like ffur 2006 and jam 3. I made my own missions for single player but they run slow when there is alot of action and if helos are starting up... If I press esc twice it stops runs smoothly for about 10 min to 10 sec and will start lagging and running choppy again... It seems it doesnt matter how my settings are it always does it and it also takes FOREVER to load missions and exit the game... This is when I run ffur btw... one of my friends told me to put all of my addons from ofp and res in my ffur addons folder along with any other addons I download... also whenever I hop into a helecoptor and start my motor it wines really badly and then stops when I go into 3rd person and then back to first... But my biggest concern is with the slow downs. btw they even happen during the campaign during the cut scenes!!! and while I am at it one of my friends said to make and use mod folders? I have no clue on how to make or do that... Well that is about it for my problems... I figure before I go I will put down my comps specs... 3500+Amd Athlon 64 processor 512 MB of memory soon to be 1.512 GB as of next week 200 GB Hard drive Integrated ATI Radeon Xpress 200 graphics card The comp is a HP Pavilion a1210n
