Its difficult for me to say how the new drivers performe compared to the older as I also have changed my 3 hd Raid0 to a 4 hd Raid5... But, when I started arma I put myself at my FPS-test place (a dense forrest). My FPS was ~22 instead of ~29. But then I looked into advanced grafic options and noticed I could crank up AA all the way to 8... So I did that and right now I`m back at ~29FPS, but better grafics! So I`ll keep the drivers! (still foggy though...) AA options before: Disabled Low Normal High Very high 5 AA option now: Disabled Low Normal High Very high 5 6 7 8 C2De6600, 2 gig RAM, GF8800GTS, raid5

Elevation made me vote yes. I miss that. I would like wind, but its not that important.

Doublepost...

Looking forward to OFrP in arma! I hope you will make a french language-pack so the soldiers speak french. I had my OFrP-soldiers in OFP to speak french and it was really cool!

I remember from a book I read that the russian 5.45 do more damage than nato 5.56 because its center of mass is more to the back of the bullet making it less stable. So when the bullet hits a body the bullet will tumble around making alot of damage, more damage than the nato 5.56. But because of this the bullet will also richochet more and change direction if it hits something on the way to the target. The book also pointed out that the effect of the 5.45 ammunition are abit to nasty but it is design is just within the "legal" limits. This is taken from memory and I do not remember the name of the book so take this for what it is, some information on the internet one person remember reading... Â

AK74 use 5.45

Voice Activated Command

I love the new ability to look around in optic view. I find it most useful when I can lower the sights and still be in optic view. Because then I can scan the horizon without the optics disturbing my view, I also have a better view when walking and still be ready to fire. I also like to take a quick look left or right to see what happening around me.

Do you have 5.1 soundcard in your laptop? (for the rest of the discussion: I have a pair of icemat 2.0 and a x-fi xtrememusic, and its much better than my zalman 5.1. Both soundquality and the ability to hear and pinpoint directional sounds.)

1.4 VS 1.5 with E6600 + 8800GTX? This looks more like a XP vs Vista problem to me. Why install Vista in the first place? Honest question.. I cant se one reason for that, maybe in the future but not now...

If your friend have the cash I can recommend the pro throttle, I love mine. Myself I`m searching for a pair of pro pedals...

@Infam0us I believe you are on different boats CH-products have a very powerful tool, CM Control Center, and I suppose pcpilot are searching for a CMCC profile? CMCC are very powerful and you program your CH-sticks exactly as you want with different modes, and you can also make scripted actions if you press a button. F.ex in IL2 I have 4 different modes, every mode changes the buttonsetup. Mode 1: take off and landing, mode 2 combat, mode 3 navigation and mode 4 emergency and trimming. It can be some work to make a profile, but I think its very revarding. And when you want a really sweet function or profile you might need to do some scripting. I think its fun but I understand that some just want to download a profile as a base for their own or just simply to use.

They will be my new heroes..

Sorry, I do not have a profile for you. But you can go to CH hangar, maybe you find something there. About arma supporting pedals, with CH its no problems as you can combine your CH-sticks into one virtual device. If you need a better explanation go to CH hangar Â

So there isnt an "AIdispersionvalue"?

I just played this mission. I really miss 1985........

I really like armas HDR. It works smooth and realistic on my GF8800gts. I wonder though if AI are affected?

Try to set them careless

I have 3 maxline III, 16mb cache, in a raid 0 so yes, it can be. @whisper: No, I was the recruit with no AT I had the bootcamp weapontraining with the pilot.. But I am a good pilot Old sebnam veteran with joystick!

I had to Quote you one more time I played MP yesterday and yes, I get the texture bugs. I played for a long time without problems until I got more and more often bad LOD textures and models. It wasnt too bad but it wasnt as it should be. As you said, in a heavy MP-environment.

I did spend over 2 months just reading about parts before buying anything, so I know the parts do work together. I havent tried it in MP. But I have done alot of ALT-TAB without any problems. Good luck with your next rig!

C2D E6600 + 8800GTS. Runs fine. Almost all settings at max..

I have a C2D E6600 and a GF8800GTS (+2 gig ram, raid, all the latest drivers and so on..). I can play arma with full settings, but I "only" have about 22FPS when there are multiple units fighting in wooded areas. I have turned down terrain and objects to normal, and shadow and AF to high. Now I can play with ~32FPS in forrest ranging up to ~80 in desert (1204x678). Nothing is overclocked. I do not experience any texture bugs. I havent yet experienced any bigger bug playing the campaign. I play 1.05.... Yes, I feel lucky to be able to play arma as it was ment to! But my point is, you cannot rule out dual cores or 8800s.

Here is a thread about the new ironsights. Watch those movies. Before the head was stucked to the gun so if the gun shaked the whole view shaked. Now you also can aim freely in the "box" when you have ironsights up (if you have disabled the "freeview box" you wont notice). You can also use trackIR in ironsight view which is a big improvement.

You can change the key-settings. I play with my own ofp-setting now (I use the num-pad instead of wasd).
