santafee

i just tried to build a outro for my mission, somehow if i start the sqs file in the outro, or even just view the outro with a playeble unit, the screen stays black. i can here my trigger music and intros and stuff working also, no failure in the sqs file...would be nice if someone could help..!

Ok...Next Tuesday we´re getting nice new Units, stuff and a pretty cool CHOPPER. I preorderd the DLC and i wanna play it, at least without gamebreaking issues. 1 month before a pretty nice bug was introduced which makes choppers constantly crashing and nicking like insane swingboats. It´s pretty clear what created the http://dev-heaven.net/issues/14410 issue in 1! beta. it was not fixed with the recent betas, also not with the following 1.55 patch. Now im hearing, it will not get fixed, even in the PMC DLC Patch. Im more then pissed, cause this bug is now 1 month on the tracker on dev heaven. If you guys dont want to play with suicide choppers after 2 stable patches please, tell it BIS here...:icon_neutral: Im testing every beta, nice support, but i dont need to test them, if they continue gamebreakers in the next stable patches. Its 1 MONTH now. No point to say BIS provies good support at all, but you guys dont expect im buying stuff which i cant use, do you? point of this thread is to move BIS to create a last stable fix for the choppers....the issue has enough votes and many people dont even know devheaven. also, i got MUCH patience, but if gamebreakers are introduced in a beta and continued in stables more then 1 month...

i may ask on sprocket if i can download the PMC Dlc and pay 1-2 month later, when i got money again. Seriously, you have to fix gamebreakers. Nobody is expecting small buggers to be fixed

http://dev-heaven.net/issues/14410 there is your bug. i added it before 1 month on the bugtracker and really wanna see this fixed finally...! Its pretty much also related to choppers crashing alot. Vote the Bug!!!

I hope the AI is also able to fly again flawless with the new KA-60... http://dev-heaven.net/issues/14410 Btw why we dont have pictures yet of the new XM8 variants, hope they look gooD!

Like it says its for the video memory, thats the RAM of your card. I got only 512 MB but im good with very high when using exThreads 3. thought i remember BIS for this here, its only minor but im sure it should be only a small change in config or so: http://dev-heaven.net/issues/14278

ExThreads=3 definitly helps for me, but 1.54 was much smoother for me also. Got to say that the improvements with the trees and stuff are nice besides all this stuff, so thanks BIS. Hope the choppers are fixed till PMC release so the AI gets their ability to fly back:cool: http://dev-heaven.net/issues/14410

Not a really big changelog at all, il test it now;-) http://www.arma2.com/beta-patch.php Only note:

the arma2 folder in my documents was deleted, but i also manually deleted the cfg´s again. no success sadly; i just posted my system specs, please tell me what i can do else, dont know how to repro it, but like i said it happened after the 74630 build. key cat also has that problem with a nvidia card, so it cant be driver related. suma just posted that they cant repro it with that build, but what can we do then..;-(

wount work since a complete reinstall deletet the cfg´s all... also ext threads 3 didnt make anything better for me.

DualCore E8400 3.00 No Oc ATI HD 4850 512MB Ram 4 Gigabyte Ram Samsung HDD 7200RPM Running XP 32Bit I testet a fresh ArmaII+OA install with this settings: Texture Quality: High Texture Memory: High Antistropic Filter: High AA: None ObjectDetails:High TerrainDetail: High ShadowDetail:High Blur/PP Effects: None View Distance:1600meters Tested with VSync on and of same with the level of HDR. Its allways the same. Its not related to too high settings definitly. Also my XP is installed very fresh, so this is not the issue. Please BIS look at the changes which were made after 74630. this was the last beta which run fine for the most of us. New ticket opened at Dev Heaven....... http://dev-heaven.net/issues/15370

well im happy im not the only one! But how can it be so hard to reproduce? 74630 was the last beta which run smooth, the next beta release introduced that issue, so wheres the problem to check the process between those 2 betas?!

just to be sure this bug has nothing to do with my install of Arma and OA. I own both on discs+BAF Dlc. I install ArmaII. No Patch after that. Installing OA and let it patch on 1.6 from disc. then i install 1.55 offical patch/+beta, right? Guess i can install BAF anytime after i installed OA. @sickboy i will try a defrag if the problem ist still remaining after my fresh install

yea, thanks for the tipp. but i just did a fresh XP install, so i dont think theres need for defrag. Just doing a new Arma install again....

thanks... i will continue the bug on CTI. its not like its just some textures a bit later, its all near textures connected with heavy stuttering, same as in the offical patch and previous build. i dont know if it helps, but like many people reported, in 1.54 with 74360 it was perfect. hope your doing your best to fix it till tuesday. worst would be to be not able to play your new content cause the issue is remaining.

hey dwarden, can you please confirm that the issue with the slow texture loading and switching is not meant to be fixed with that. its not 100% clear from the changelog, thanks.

yea i got patience! i just hope your right and its not meant to be fixed with this beta cause it still makes the game unplayeble. those guys which also have the problem pls confirm it, i see us sitting on it with the next official patch + PMC

Wow..i still got the extreme LOD and texture swichting:mad:

edited...NVM since this topic is not related to the problem i have...to make it short, its not only this MP issue, the problems are all over the forums but BIS let us down ATM

you got a pretty strange sense of humor:j: + this is definitly doesnt belong in the editing section

No. Sadly its delayed to unknown date again. Icebreaker deleted all islandfiles by a mistake, so did the betatesters:eek:

well maybe you talking about yourself, you dont deserve it? i think i do, cause i preorderd PMC and spend my money;)and yes i expected no answer, cause probably they working on it, but i wanna be able to play again now=)

Comon...I also got a HD4850 with only 512 MB. The game just run great with 1.54 without those heavy texture switching. Also i can play the game with very high textures and texture memory, usually the textures just load very less slower. Its the patch and its bugged, we dont need to discuss this 100x times more now, even if you dont got issues.

yea why dont you make just one by yourself^^? btw good day mr. dev, when we´l get the next beta with texture fixing?

eww..they really let us wait with a new beta which fixes the Texture Problem;-( let us test a current build BIS, so we can be sure we can play again with PMC!
