If your able to lock on a target by pressing tab you will get a square, a circle will appear if the target is within firing range and you have a lock, the circle will grow darker if you have a more solid lock.

Upgraded from 9.6 to 9.7 getting CTD every game now. Running Vista64

Do you have any mods of any kind installed?

I like the DMR because of the zoom in feature.

I was on a server recently and there was this guy who was flying a A-10 and getting a massive amount of kills without landing to reload, when I went into this plane after he left the game, I found that he had more ammo on it then if I where to get a brand new A-10. Like for example his GAUs where 4/8 meaning 4bombs ready and 8sets of 4 in reserve, and his 30mm cammo was 1000/2 and marviks 2/7 and etc for rockets. How did he setup that loadout for his A-10? When I went to a jetservice station everything in his plane got reset. Is it a hack or a cheat or script of some kind? Thanks.

That's a good system, can you overclock your CPU for even more speed! I have my i7 920 @ 3.6Ghz.

Just get a I7 920 and overclock it to a $1000 prcoessor and save money for the video card. This game as of right now from what I am hearing is that it does not work with duel graphic cards.

I had a similar system to yours 2 days ago. AMD Opteron 165 @2.6ghz, 4GB DDR 400mhz, ATI 4850, Vista64. It was playable at 1600x1050 normal settings. Then I got a Intel I7 920 with 6GB of DDR3, and new motherboard, the FPS went up 3x. It's been 4 years since I had a new system, so I guess it was time to upgrade, it's still good for all other games today, but ARMA2 really does take alot of power. I will upgrade my video card when the DX11 cards come out in the fall, I am hearing that they are 2-3x faster than the current generation of cards. I was going to get another 4850 so I can crossfire my cards, but it seems that ARMA does not support SLI or Crossfire at the moment so I did not get another card. My AMD Opteron 165 was the best bang for the buck back then. It could be overclocked to 2.6ghz which is basically a $1000 processor. I am doing the same for the I7 920 as soon as I get a good after market heatsink/fan to put it up to at least 3.8-4ghz which is faster than the best Intel $1000+ processors out there in the market.

Upgraded my CPU, motherboard & RAM. Score went from 1500 to 4700! Old system was a AMD Opteron 165 @2.6ghz aka X2 3800+, 4GB DDR1. I ordered the 2nd best AMD config, but I canceled it at the last min because looking at the results here told me to go Intel, and it was only $200 more. I figure I will be overclocking it to a $1000 processor spec so it's worth it. When I got my AMD Opteron 165, that was the best bang for the buck 4 years ago, it was a $350 processor, but I overclocked it to a FX60 a $1000 processor, I hope this one last me another 4years. I was going to drop another $150 for another 4850 so I can crossfire it, but seeing that ARMA II doesn't play well with multi-GPU setups, I decided to wait for the DX11 cards coming out this fall. Texture Detail - Normal Anisotropic Filtering - Normal Terrain Detail - Normal Objects Detail - Normal Shadow Detail - Normal PostProcess Effects- Low Cpu - i7 920 OC (3.6ghz) Ram - OCZ DDR3-1600 6GB GPU - ATI 4850 OS - Vista Resolution - 1680 x 1050 Normal Score - 4700

I am currently running a AMD Opteron 165 1.8ghz @2.25ghz, 4GB of DDR1, ATI 4850 and I just put in a order on newegg for a new cpu/mobo/ram. On my limited budget I am getting a AMD Phenom II X3 720 BE, Biostar 790 chipset motherboard, and 4gb of DDR2 1033. This total setup cost me about $300, I was thinking about a Intel 920 combo, that that will run me for about $700, and looking at the reviews of games and gaming benchmarks, there isn't much of a difference between those processors. So that leaves me with more money for a new GPU, probably a DX11 ATI or Nvidia one that are coming out this fall. They promised DX11 cards for the windows7 release which will be in October.

EDIT: Okay I just broke down! I went on newegg and ordered a AMD Phenom2 X4 940BE with mobo and new ram. $400 out the door. I was thinking about getting another 4850 to crossfire, but I think I will wait til the DX11 cards that will be coming out in the fall. The Intel 920s are good, but I can't justify the price on their motherboards and DDR3.

I am having the same problem. Plus my guys where stuck standing and could not move. I had to shoot them in the leg and then revive them to be able to control them again.
