Yeah im running Win7 64bit and have been experiencing the same CTD's although i dont get any errors the arma 2.exe still runs in the background after it crashes, have to end the process through ctrl alt del. I have tried both the 1.05 and latest beta patches, this wasnt happening to me pre 1.05.

Hey chammy your sound mod is awesome but i am having a few issues, im not sure if its just me because the explosion sounds seem kind of dull or weak i should say especially the artillery when it hits, any ideas? seems to be the same with all explosions grenades, RPG's etc. apart from that everything sounds great, the small arms fire sounds very nice.

Hey all, Just wondering what needs to be done in order for alice to work on community made maps? I have searched but couldnt find anything related, any help would be appreciated.

Hey all, I remember back in the arma1 days when i was creating missions i would use Ammo points to rearm Choppers and Jets on the run without having to stop the jet or heli. In arma 2 i cant find these ammo points in the editor and the only thing i can rearm my jets and heli's with is the service point building or ammo crates/trucks in which i have to land and come to a stop to rearm. Is there another way to do this? I have searched and cant find anything on these ammo points? Any help would be appreciated.

Thats going a bit far even for sarcasm, it doesnt bother me as i found it quite funny although im sure others wont see it that way. On topic i think it would be a cool addon as there have been other mods like this for other games as mentioned previously Fallout 3, and not to mention all the war movies out there with kids getting blown to pieces and shot up etc, so whats the difference if its in a video game or movie? I mean what its ok to kill young women in arma 2 with just about every weapon possible but when it comes to children its considered as evil, a little bit contradictory dont you think?

It has probably been mentioned before although i want to see some more jets and plane addons, the Russians need some bombers like the Tu-160 and Tu-95MS, also maybe custom loadouts for the su-34's with cluster muntions etc. And of course would love to see some naval battles around chernarussian waters in the near future, so hopefully a few destroyers and frigates are created soon.

I dont see how any of this is relevant, if and when arma 3 comes out im sure they would consider using a new engine because by the time arma 3 is even released the old engine would not be able to cut it amongst the new generation of games. But even if they did decide for a new makeover and use another engine it would not be the cryengine due to mainly cost and other things such as licensing etc, your also talking as if this is around the corner ffs arma 2 just came out dont get to excited.

Try downloading some user made SP missions, also get some SP warfare kicking and just play as a pilot on the russian side or something similar.

This can be done or just create a Hunter they also have NV, what does a sniper need NV for anyways? lol

You wont need a 750w psu to handle the 5870 although i would get a 600w rather than a 500w just to be on the safe side.

Agreed I dont know about that statement, Arma 2 requires some good hardware to play the game on high and i doubt a $60 cpu and $35 GPU will play arma 2 on high with decent frames, unless of course you picked up a good dual or quad core for $60 and a fairly recent GPU for $35 which i also doubt.

I just completed the campaign and i must say that i enjoyed it a lot. It was challenging and there were a lot of suprises around every corner which is a nice feeling. I loved the tank wrecks near the russian border to that was cool, as others have said the only problem is the english or lack thereof and also the cheesy lines but for me i understood what was being said so i shouldnt say problem more something that can be rectified next time round. I'll be looking forward to a sequel with the russian invasion perhaps?

I was thinking the same thing as with my 4890 i get the same thing, tbh it doesnt bother me that much as i thought this happened to everybody? Or is it an ATI thing??

I guess it could be done but i doubt this is is high on there list of things to do, i was hoping maybe one day the community would make such a mod and still have high hopes that there will be movable trains in arma 2 in the future.

Defintely the GPU holding you back, my old 9600GT struggled at times and after an upgrade to the 4890 arma 2 has been a lot more responsive on higher settings. The new 5850 is even better yet so it should allow you to play higher vid settings inc PP, AA, AF etc etc.
