Man I enjoyed the CiA coop nights back in OFP. I'll write you a pm, don't know if I'll join tonight though... I should do quite a lot for university.

Codies were responsible for Red Hammer, the not-so-good expansion imho. Resistance is BIS' thingy.

Oupsie, I misread it and didn't read "Singleplayer". *editing*

http://gamestar.de/news...._2.html I only found it on the german gamestar site, there's nothing I found in Codemasters' official press releases. Well, according to these news they plan for a release in 2008. It's designed to be a single- and multiplayer war simulation, the gameplay should feel as realistic as possible. There are different classes one can choose. edit: Well, the title should say "Operation Flashpoint 2", sorry. If a moderator could edit that, I'd be very glad. Thanks.

If understand your feeling. My comp runs ArmA only on low settings, that's really disturbing. So... Life is Life http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=YvRhOpqZO7I

http://www.gamestar.de/community/gspinboard/showthread.php?t=255576 Someone claims that in the new edition of the german gaming magazine "PC Action" there's a SP Demo of Armed Assault. Armed Assault Single player In our exclusive singleplayer demo of the tactical shooter Armed Assault you do two missions. In the first mission you perform a cleansing operation, in the second you learn how to fly a chopper in ArmA.

Thanks a lot for promptly fixing the issue.

so do i... changes nothing. or maybe it has problems with both my drives... but i also wouldn't count on it being the securom protection. i don't see the drive being accessed while playing the game. if it is securom it's probably conflicting with the game engine somehow... btw... that statement is a little exaggerated... in one of the single missions where you have to clean a town of OPFOR soldiers i get VERY playable FPS with very high details. in another single mission however it's totally unplayable no matter what settings i choose. it always depends on where you are and in what direction you are looking. I removed the Disk while playing and it neither let the game crash nor did it improve the performance a bit. So it's probably not the protection checking the DVD all the time, but maybe something colliding game engine - protection, as you pointed out.

BMP highjump still works. http://img399.imageshack.us/img399/7269/arma2006112900563126zy1.jpg http://img366.imageshack.us/img366/9602/arma2006112900563660gx1.jpg http://img87.imageshack.us/img87/7978/arma2006112900563792cx6.jpg http://img366.imageshack.us/img366/7018/arma2006112900563939tx2.jpg http://img364.imageshack.us/img364/2544/arma2006112900571618nr4.jpg SATCHEL-ACTION!

Oh, I thought that the Mi17 was also referred to as "Hind", not only the Mi24. See, I still learn something in ArmA. Thanks for clearing that up.

That was no Hind? What did I blow up then?

Some new stuff. I played with the settings and now I'm running on these settings smoothly most of the time. I've got the german version, so Securom most likely kills my performance. http://img144.imageshack.us/img144/2646/arma2006112816215898uk7.jpg Niedrig = low specs: XP2000+, 9600XT, 768MB RAM http://img144.imageshack.us/img144/6864/arma2006112816244435ic2.jpg http://img206.imageshack.us/img206/2620/arma2006112816252432dg1.jpg Here I'm pursuing a little bird with a Sopwith Camel. http://img292.imageshack.us/img292/8323/arma2006112816322420rw3.jpg AI vs AI.

I know someone who already bought the german version last week. I've got it since yesterday.

It runs so-so. 1280x1024 is unplayable for me, 1024x768 is ok. I also discovered that the parameters \ArmA\arma.exe -maxmem=700 -dxlevel 8 -nosplash hugely improved my performance. maxmem for using more RAM and dxlevel 8 for using DX8 instead of 9. Now I can run some things on normal with no lags. Screens willl follow. "-dxlevel 8" does not do anything. Test with and without it and I'm sure you will see no difference whatsoever. OK, I just read it in the performance thread, so I stand corrected. Then it's just the maxmem-parameter I guess. Works fine though.
