There is a mission example thread in this forum.
You can simply download the artillery mission there and copy/paste it into your mission.
Sadly the example thread did not get highlited so you have to search for it.

There shoudl be trees and rocks...
-
Ok what are you talking about ? There are some random hills next to the main map but there are absolutely no objects/ points of interests there.
Is there any plan of adding trees and grass ?

The new patch does not fix a single performance related issue. I just read the changelog.

What patch comes tomorrow ?
-
The last patch was called "final", does that mean they are currently not working on further patches ?
Especially Multiplayer is a mess performance wise. Singleplayer need optimization, too. In MP I can set it to highest or lowest details with only 5 fps difference.
I played ArmA 2 with a HD4850 and now with a GTX 275 and there was almost no increase in performance. Still I can't believe that my 2x4GHZ dual core cpu is a "bottleneck".
All in all and comparing it to other games like Total War Empire the performance seems to be at least 50% under what is reasonable. Of course there is no real comparable game atm but you can see bugs and strange fps drops and ridiculous performance issues around every corner.

Dunno but is it a problem that I have one power connection behind a 12V fan ?
Could the fan affect the GFX performance ?
-
Crap, I guess I have to return my GTX ... The card is working but it has the same performance as my old 4850...
Even in 3DMark I only have 20% more points than with my 4850. So something actually is wrong.
Can graphics cards work but not at the full performance ?

All of these screenshots are taken with my system in the signature below.This is the settings I used and all the screenshots are resized from 1920x1080.

As you can see the framerate is above 35fps in all of them and most of them are 45+.
What score do you have in 3DMark06 (in case you know that) ?
-
why should i fake that and how? sorry that you cant enjoy the game as i do, but calling my screenshots fake is ridiculous. what card do you have? what OS?Sorry but this just can't be right. I've got a C2D 2x4GHZ, 4GB Ram and 275GTX and I only get 15 fps in an EMPTY EDITOR while you get 30 fps at full warfarce action with a 4890 ?
-
Whos talking about maxing it out ?
The problem is: ArmA 2 + low details + High End hardware = 25fps (in multiplayer)
That's unaccaptable. AND DON'T SAY: Turn down the details. It does 30fps at lowest details and 25 at highest details, so obviously the engine sucks not my computer.

This HAS TO be a fake:
Even in an empty editor with those settings I only get 15 fps:

How should he get double the fps in multiplayer with even higher resolution with a 4890 ?
-
Obviously the wrong decision as I did it only for ArmA 2.:butbut:

Damn that's unfair...

In that benchmark they put the fillrate to 150%. Also it was pre patch.
I still guess that on low resolutions like mine they should be around even.
-
I don't think so. The 4890 has 1 GB so there are some advatages at very high view range and AA settings. But both cards are too weak to give reasonable framerates at these settings.
So as I play at 1280x1024 with AA only to high and 2km view distance the 275 should still be faster.
In the benchmarks the 4890 had "less few" fps than the 275 in very high AA settings because of the higher VRAM. But that is not important because you couldn't play at such settings anyway.
-
Yep tried that. In multiplayer I set everything to minimum and still I'm getting only 30 fps.
The funny thing is: There is no real difference between very high and very low settings in multiplayer. It's always around 30fps.
Vsync etc. has been checked of course.
In singleplayer everything is fine.
*edit*
@ ch 123: Where did you get that information. According to tests the 275 is always at least 5% above the 4890. Usually it's about 9%.
-
The 4890 is about 10% slower than a GTX 275.
Or do you have more than the shown 26fps in that specific situation ?
-

I'm still only getting 26 fps in moments like these. It sucks.
2x4 GHZ, GTX 275, Win7 64, 4GB RAM
SOMETHING REALLY SCREWS UP IN MULTIPLAYER:
With my close to high end rig I am getting 30 fps in ULTRA LOW and 25 fps in ULTRA HIGH detail in multiplayer
ArmA 2 totally doesn't behave like any other game.
-
-
I just played the longest day online, 44 player online and right at the beginning (at the carrier) I get lousy 22 fps...
Thats just retarded. I mean I have 35 fps in Crysis at full detail.
GTX 275
4GB
2x 4 GHZ E 8500
Win7
I don't spend 700€ on a pc to get 22 fps in ArmA 2...
-
... and still having massive performance problems.
Before I had a HD4850 which is about 50% slower than a GTX 275. The rest of my system is: 2x4GHZ E8500, 4GBRam, Win7 64
So now I get around 30 FPS in Elektrowhateverthatowniscalled and in the woods with everything set to high except shadows and 1200m view range.
The engine is sooo badly optimized. I can't find any significant fps boost. In every other game I have about 60% more fps.
-
C2D E 8500 @ 3.8GHZ
ATI 4850
4 GB DDR 2
I guess I have to upgrade to a 4850 x2 or similar. That would give me 40% more fps. which would make it at least playable in multiplayer.
-
It's the same on all servers.
-
You can set up 1500 AI units or play with 20 people online. Both gets you the same framerate.
This has to be the worst engine/ netcode ever built for multiplayer yet one of the best for SP.
-
I have played OFP, ArmA and now ArmA 2 but never tried online play. Unless today.
It's almost unbearable: I've got a C2D E8500/4GB/4850ATI and get around 50fps on all settings high in singleplayer. Now in MP I barely get 25fps with all settings lowest before even getting close to the action.
Is that really what the mp looks like ?

Random enemies - any scripts yet ?
in ARMA 2 & OA : MISSIONS - Editing & Scripting

Are DAC or CEP already ported into ArmA 2 ?
Or is there something similar ?
I found a very basic dynamic AI script here:
