i'm using a ATI card and have installed the Tweakforce Xtreme-G 9.6 Catalyst Display Drivers. they seem to give me improvement on performance. There are also tweaked drivers for the Nvidia cards. these drivers may fix some of your graphic issues. you can find the drivers from www.tweakforce.com

i think Evolution and Domination coop missions are being overplayed in the online servers. Gets kind of boring after awhile. What happened to all the custom missions. I missed those days in ArmA 1 where we had more custom fun or RPG missions like Sahrani Life etc etc.. Anybody bringing this from ArmA 1?

i get this bug too in evolution mp. when i got the rank corporal and above i tried to recruit AI into my squad. they will parachute over to my location. some will hang mid air and die. but the AI icon will still be there and its in red. and i can't remove him from my squad, so i can't recruit someone else to replace the dead AI. i don't know whether its a bug with the mp mission itself .

i think arma II has higher system requirements than arma I , just by looking at the system requirements stated with the game itself. Minimum: OS: Windows XP or Windows Vista Processor: Dual Core CPU (Intel Pentium 4 3.0 GHz, Intel Core 2.0 GHz, AMD Athlon 3200+ or faster) Memory: 1 GB RAM Graphics: GPU (Nvidia Geforce 7800 / ATI Radeon 1800 or faster) with Shader Model 3 and 256 MB VRAM Hard Drive: 10 GB free HDD space Recommended: OS: Windows XP or Windows Vista Processor: Quad Core CPU or fast Dual Core CPU (Intel Core 2.8 GHz or AMD Athlon 64 X2 4400+ or faster) Memory: 2 GB RAM Graphics: Fast GPU (Nvidia Geforce 8800GT or ATI Radeon 4850 or faster) with Shader Model 3 and 512 or more MB VRAM Hard Drive: 10 GB free HDD space

ever since i upgraded to the catalyt 9.6 drivers, have been having crashes to desktop. no such issues with previous older drivers. don't know if 9.6 is really the cause of it though. i saw in other forums that people have issues with the drivers on other games as well. like crashing, hanging.

guys. try these english language pbo files. they were taken from the 1.01 505 games version. http://www.mediafire.com/download.php?yyzzrymmdzm

there is something which i know ofp 2 have that arma 2 doesn't. it won't have that much bugs on release. it will take less patches and less time to be stable.

Just use the default language files from the 505 games version.(without patch 1.02) it will be in english, i'm currently using them. anyway what the 1.02 patch did to the languages files in 505 version is only add the additional languages into the files.

i only get crash to desktop while playing multiplayer, no issues in single.

does forcing vsync off really make a difference to the FPS?

guys , just use the original language files from the uk 505 games version. (before 1.02 patch)

perhaps arma 2 was not optimized for vista. which OS was used for the development of arma 2?

i only get crash to desktop while playing online.

guys i suspect that this issue only happens to systems running VISTA OS. it could be vista specific issue .

can we confirm that this issue only happens on systems running on VISTA and not XP? it could be VISTA specific issue in this case.

can someone confirm that arma2 runs better in XP than in VISTA? and the performance difference is obvious? i'm currently on vista and i am considering whether to go back to XP for this reason.

just curious. were the language pbo files updated in the 1.02 patch? i noticed the file dates for these files were updated after the 1.02 patch. but not sure if there was any modification done to it

modifying the files do not trigger fade i think

ok i just discovered something. by modifying the pbo files ourselves . its breaking the original bis sig. and some online servers require to have the original bis sig or you can't join.

there is minor issue now after patch 1.02 the chatbox and messages are overlapping each other, making it hard to see what you are typing sometimes.

sorry, u mean in arma 1 , non english versions were eventually patched with english language option?

ok great. so what we only need now is an english language patch for the german version.

i'm playing on the german version. i think i saw some uk servers online. correct me if i am wrong. there is mp compatibility among the different languages? can someone confirm it please

1.02 does not change german language to english but it has modifield something in the language file. whether its english or german. ---------- Post added at 12:04 PM ---------- Previous post was at 12:03 PM ---------- sorry i don't know if this is allow. perhaps someone with the english version of the game can share the english language files after patching to 1.02?
