Well i tested it on a quad server today with 100mbit and was still laggy from where so many players join at once even tho server had 44fps. Lag is more more down to the arma jip and multicore usage as it seems it dont wanna use more then around 35% cpu out of 50% o n dual core and 35% out of 100% on a quad

That happens if admin locks the server from ingame. Sometimes jip lag causes alot of lag when loads of people join at once so they lock it for abit then unlock.

I can also supply server for berzerk maps

Been moniting server when in full use and seems it aint using multicore towell at all. Server runs crcti warfare with 36 players all day long with server fps staying around 8 to 10 in mid game no matter how many cores server is using On a quad at 3.4ghz 2 x 3.4ghz =8 to 10 fps. 30% to 35% cpu usage out of 50% 3 x 3.4ghz =8 to 10 fps. 30% to 35% cpu usage out of 75% Now i just tested q6600 @ 2.4ghz using 4cores with 36 players and had the admin check the fps and it was 8fps and server using 30% to 35% out of 100%. 65% free cpu usage yet only 8fps. on arma1 server could max out 1core at run at 5 to 7fps and the fps would be alot higher if cpu wasnt maxed out. So dedicating more then 2cores to a server at the moment is waste of time. Hope this is just a problem with the dedicated server.exe being beta and fixed soon

Core i7 920 (D0) @ 2.67ghz GTX 275 6gb ram Asus rampage 2 gene os 64bit vista I get around 35fps in mp using normal to high settings with fillrate set to 100% and 1920 x 1200 res. core i7 HT is also on. I would overclock but need better cooler :) Think i do a test with HT off

Updated the XR server to 102 Switched on signed files to stop hackers. You will need to remove the non offical english files if you using them or auto kick English server so speak english only

XR is pretty close to a uk server sence im from the uk myself but its hosted in germany so has good pings for all euro players. 35ms for me English speaking only aswell

Had same problem 2 to 3 times when playing with friend. She blamed my new computer lol but had a filling was arma 2 related. Had to tab out and use task manager to terminate the process. Also when i hosted server on lan to play non campaign maps i went to exit map we was playing to load another and crashed to desktop

Arma 2 seems to work on game tracker under arma 1 This is what i had set up for our arma 1 ace game server http://www.gametracker.com/server_info/195.200.192.69:3500/ And all i did was shut of the arma 1 server and run arma 2 server on same machine and port and now the arma 2 server is showing on arma1 stats. This wasnt planed till someone pointed it out to me. Was confused and saying who added the arma 2 server to game tracker :)

Think he talking about renting one

Your system is crap to be honest. Atleast for a game like arma2. Was gonna say it sounds like you using laptop then i noticed you had laptop acer 8920 above. I have asus g50 t4750 @ 2.0ghz and 9700, gt and would never think about runing arma 2 on it Im using core i7 920 with gtx 275 for arma 2 and even tho it runs fine on most settings it could be alot better so i either get 2nd gtx 275 sometime or wait for the new dx11 cards to come out

Posting this on behalf of benny Addon pack v4 installer can be downloaded from here http://cr-ofp.dyndns.org/?page=list&id=320 Download speed is abit slow to to problems with apache so if someone wants to mirror it then go ahead :) Mission playable on XR - Warfare server #2 |hs-clan.com IP = 195.200.192.121:2302

Done that already but cant exspect a muliplayer server to run right without a dedicated server.exe which would manage things like server input and output i would of though. Every server i played on got desync with 16 players or less

Im almost on same set up. core i7 920 6gb and gtx 275 and had same probs. right now im using fullrate optim 100% 1600vd 1920 x 1200 and all other settings set to normal. tested fullrate optim 200% which almost killed my fps. Also when i test high settings and they start to lag and the game slows down and i reset the settings back to defult the lag stll stays there till i restart arma. Question i wanted to ask is does anyone know for sure if arma dedicated server will use 4cores? And will that also be for client side aswell? Only seems like its using 2cores to me so far. I plan on dedicated 3 cores @ 3.4ghz for a warfare server if it uses 3cores and 2cores for rpg mission on e8400 server

Runing a multiplayer server without the dedicated server.exe is pretty buggy from what we seen on xr server and other servers. Like there be 16 slot server 8vs8 and when you join its only 7vs7 but cant take 1 of the 2 slots. We noticed when we made 32man warfare mission that when a player leaves server while in game his player slot becomes removed. Also theres alot of lag with large numbers of players due to the fact theres no multiplayer network settings Multiplayer only seems good at the moment for playing missions with up to 16players without JIP

Dunno if its just me but when i was using 1920 x 1200 res i felt like it was set to alot lower when looking at the background. so set fullrate optim from 67% to 200% which made the graphics look alsome like 1920 x 1200 should look like but laged the hell out my system. Looks like i need 2nd gtx 275. Game just looked crap to me with fullrate optim on defult settings with all settings on high detail and high res. Thats about the only thing i got to whine about sence i aint done to much testing yet apart from play some mp games but cant say im wowed by arma 2 so far to be honest. Maybe i change my mind when i spend good few hours playing later and test everythink out :P

You cant exspect a dedicated server.exe when the game aint even released world wide yet. Still kind of beta sence it was only released in germany. Dedicated server files prob come sometime after the 19th of june or a month from now

Should of used play.com http://www.play.com/Games/PC/4-/9004913/-/Product.html?searchstring=arma+2&searchsource=0 Good site and sometimes can come 1day early with them :P

Would have to vote ofp being a cti player. When i first started playing ofp and maps like ife cti. mfcti. crcti i loved the game and enjoyed playing it everyday. I dont get that same filling with arma or playing warfare But of course arma is better then ofp in other ways like handles more players has jip etc but i enjoyed playing ofp more and people i know still play cti on it like 10 vs 10 games

MaxCustomFileSize=35000; = 35kb max per custom file. over that server auto kicks.

10mbit. 100mbit........ doesnt really matter what your server has sence arma uses a max of 4.5mbit so you could easy use settings that 100mbit servers use on 10mbit server This is what my server arma.cfg looks like language="English"; adapter=-1; 3D_Performance=8721.000000; Resolution_W=800; Resolution_H=600; Resolution_Bpp=32; MaxCustomFileSize=35000; MaxMsgSend=640; MinErrorToSend=0.008; MaxSizeGuaranteed=1024; MaxSizeNonguaranteed=512; MinBandwidth=15000000; MaxBandwidth=15500000; 512 for maxmsgsend is fine but i set it to 640 months ago for testing then forgot to change it back but seems ok with it Also these settings we use on the ofp servers that i host for people that have been used for years on some of the best cti servers MaxMsgSend=512; MaxSizeGuaranteed=1024; MaxSizeNonguaranteed=512; MinBandwidth=10000000; MaxBandwidth=13000000; I once made my ofp server output around 11500 Kbps per sec and me and a clan member has like 10000 bandwidth each but the lag was so badbefore server was outputing more then it could handle so setting settings to high for 32players + will just result in lag because server will use its max output quicker http://img152.imageshack.us/img152....MG] I remember when roughnecks server and other known servers used settings like this MinBandwidth=64000000; MaxBandwidth=100000000; Server was showing 7mbit usage on 32players. I tested them settings once and played CTF map with 30 players. Was wrost thing i ever done. people whined about lag and though the server was sh*t

Ofp vs Arma. Id have to say ofp. I still injoy playing that game like crcti and just has a better fill to it then arma. Arma just has a different fill to it that i dont really enjoy. When i first played ofp on 1.95 servers i though it was great. I just cant say the same for arma. I have a server on arma i hardly play on. That says it all

Is Warfare32V11-RBTADV.Sara.pbo on XR server? I havent played arma for some time to dont keep track what missions hs put on my server
