Wow. The devs hav known all along about this bug and yet they can't fix it?

Well my friend whom bought ArmA 2 on steam and gifted me it on steam is having some major issues. I built his computer, his rig is as follows. q9550 4870 1gb 8GB ram Vista 64 bit He has the latest Cat 9.6 drivers. His game for some reason, looks like this. I remote accessed his PC and all of his catalyst settings and such are set up correctly. His computer is completely def-ragged. I verified the game cache in steam. Everything is as it should be. Also we tested his other steam games and they all look normal. Please help ASAP. Thanks in advance.

Is it possible to make this work with coop? This is one of the best features and adds tons of replayability, but not being able to use it in coop like campaign realy sucks. :(

Edit:Tried the other description here " about STEAM GAMES LIST multiple shortcuts ... add NON steam game, leading to STEAM.exe and then change it's properties (rename it) and change the commandline to DRIVE:\PATH\Steam.exe -applaunch 33920 -window -maxmem=2047" Still not working. Am I doing it wrong? And will this be patched in 1.03?

Under Single Missions, I love how easy it is to create a mission, and go. But you can't play any of them in coop like you can in campaign. Is there a way to use these missions in coop? I would love to just create missions in the wizard and then play them with my buddy. Thanks.

Yes? No? Maybe?

Indeed, but what I mean is will natural point be approaching devs to expand the amount of games that use this function or have it patched in? In games like crysis and brothers in arms, your full character is modeled, and so putting free look wouldn't be that hard. It would also increase sales of this device 10 fold if it were even to get a few big games like that under its belt. It sure would make dropping 200 on it a lot easier. I would have already bought it if it supported some more games. But right now I am waiting to see if I can gauge how long I will be playing Arma 2.

I have 2 questions. One is, I have logitech g35 headphones. Will the trackclip pro fit okay? And two...While this looks like a great device, its hard to justify buying it for ONE game, as I don't really play flight sims. Any possibility that it will start being supported by more games? For instance I would love to see this in games like Crysis, Brothers in Arms, Far Cry, S.T.A.L.K.E.R. ect.

*Better Performance *Fix Jittery Camera in Armory "Scenes' *Option to hid hud in Armory "Scenes" *Work on Texture pop in *Sound glitch, when sounds get to loud IE aircraft, they can cut out completely. *Fix 8GB problem so we don't have to use -winxp tag. (Makes mod folders not work) *AI bugs like AI not regrouping, staring at walls, ect. *Allow us to mute in game music, but keep main menu music. I dont like hearing music when I am immersed in the game, but I LOVE the musics that plays at the menu. *Benchmark Level from the Demo, add it to the full release so we can easily test the results of overclocks and new hardware.

I agree, those 2 users as well as other videos, sent ArmA 2 from a game I knew nothing about to my most anticipated game. I bought a new graphics card even though I hadnt planned on doing so for another year. I bought I CPU cooler and OCed my CPU. I even bought a joystick. Soley for this game. My joystick and my card get here in 2 days I cant wait. I have already soaked 22+ hours into ArmA 2 and I have barley scratched the surface. If this game has the legs and support to last, I will probably end up picking up a track IR 5 for the game as well. Hopefully the patches keep coming and the Modding community is just as passionate. Great job BI, you will be getting my money for all your future games as long as you keep this up.

That would be awesome. Confirmation?

I hear good things about it. I ordered mine on friday, it will be here this week.

:-| Really? I mean... Really?

Can you ride on the side or no?

If anybody has the time and knowledge to do so, I think it would help the community greatly to have a few HD YouTube videos showing how to work the editor. With voice commentary. The editor is something I am looking forward to getting familiar with, however it is quite daunting at first. I think a couple videos Demoing how to do most of the basic would be very helpful to newcomers. Any takers?

Just wondering if there will be a patch fixing this? Thanks And this command line works with the steam version correct?

Hm so typing "-WinXp" in the .exe apparently works. I will try it out in a bit, unfortunately in a last ditch effort I deleted the game off his HD and now am reDownloading it. :-\ However will there be an actual fix for this? Patch wise? If a dev could answer that would be great. Thanks again.

The 1.2.5 patch is out for Steam Users already? Is that the hotfix? Or is it something different.

Thanks very much.

Hey in the faq it says steam overlay and friends list and such work, but they don't work in my game? Is this just me or is the functionality coming later?

32 bit operating systems can only use 3gb total. So if you have 4gb of ram and say a 1gb graphics card, your only utilizing 3 out of 5 gigs.

As apposed to the console demo....? And did you really register just to post that the games not for you?

Why would you do that. Now half your ram is useless and you have an inferior OS and it may or may not ammount to a couple frames in 1 game. Most game and programs will now run worse because you rendered your ram useless.

So can we still expect a preload or no?

I was just about to post this. A preload hours before release kind of defeats the purpose of lightening server load. Hopefully it will be up by tonight.:confused:
