jpinard it looks like you have good attention to detail and you appear to be quite thorough.
May I ask why you do not list your HD spec in your system specs???
May I also ask what it is?
-
apparently DVI cables are like network cables they are bandwidth sensitive/limited... if you have a crap DVI cable it can affect your frame rate... analogue is better http://www.tweakguides.com/Graphics_8.html
you have increased the resolution so it will increase the load a bit too.
-
Rebel... from what you have stated you are now using an LCD when before you were using a CRT?
If so you should Google: "Frame rate limited by a factor of refresh rate".
eg Max 60fps will sometimes default to 15 or 20 fps (Vsync can affect this)
also check your config file, some on here (Alex72) find settings of 0 frames on both to give good results others use upto 8 frames.
Otherwise it could be as suggested by GURU... something has changed on your system...eg spyware/ backgound processes... always troubleshoot when NOT connected to a network/internet first.
Run Malwarebytes free version with latest defs... it is one of best freeware scanners

tommy great to hear you have had success...
to anyone else who has issues the FIRST thing to check is what services/programs are running in the backgound.

that wiki refers to Arma 1.06 not Arma 2... am I missing summin?
-
Kram... just rebind whatever key is your forward key to "slow forward"!!!???
ie swap "forward" keybind with "slow forward"
if you dont know what keybinds are then go into options / controls...blah blah

Specs:Windows 7 64bit
Intel Core 2 Duo E6600 2.40Ghz
4 gigs of DDR2 800 ram
ATR Radeon 4890
20fps. No graphic changes except view distance actually improve FPS. No AA, normal to high settings. Horrible texture pop-in, flickering, every bug under the sun.
It's sad when I want to go back to ArmA just to have decent FPS.
I find it really amusing that particularly in this type of thread... with all that has been proved about how important storage subsystem is. ie(HD/Ramdisk/Flash)
People still post "my A2 is slow" etc... but they dont say what HD etc that they have...
BTW Wasdie your CPU is very weak for A2
My Q6600 3.0Ghz runs at 70 -90% on all 4 cores most of the time.
if you can get at least 9 series quad and get it up near 3-3.5Ghz you will see big gains.

I dont have any major changes/issues with 05 but I used all the betas.
I do get a little flashing using nightvision
-
Hmm...In forrests performance is ok (20-30 fps) but in towns or villages I have only 10-20 fps. I cant use patch 1.05 becouse I still have poblem witch flashing textures.My comp spec.
Core2duo 1,86GHz
3GB DDR2 533Mhz
GeForce GTS 250 512 MB
and two disks 7200 with 32MB buffers
Windows 7 32bits.
Resolution 1680x1050 and everything switch to normal without postprocessing (off).
I dont think you can expect too much with that cpu...
-
you dont say in what form of the game you are playing but you must make sure the "Artillery module" is loaded for that mission.
easiest way to demo is to open the editor and load the module and the "static unit" yourself.
If you are playing online/user missions it varies, some missions dont allow it.
there is the chance that you have somehow borked your keybinds as well... so as long as your menu options scroll/work the same for the other stuff it should work.
ps if you did not know bind a key to "Optics" and it will give you the optical sight for direct fire (mouse button does not always work.)
I found some info here:http://forums.bistudio.com/showthread.php?t=93120

kklownboy get real and look around how many game publishers and developers arent interested in testing their games before release. What they do are simple tests - I bet that BIS devs didnt play-test through their own missions/campaigns and modules. You may take a look how many issues and bugs have been reported here and at DevHeaven since release. ;)Time will tell if your crystal ball skills have stopped BIS devs to fix bugs & issues of Arma2.
not sure about that.... but one thing that stands out in all the DEV gameplay vids is that they are hires, smooth as silk and no texture popping...
-
what does a screen from a vanilla server look like and do you have firewall turned off (to test) etc
and why would you test trying to connect to a server that you know cant let you join because you dont have the mod?
-
NM I had a double bind blocking it...doh!!!
-
to quote a key press/bind is only of use if it is the same on his PC
you need to tell him what that bind does as an "action"
-
NM answered already
-
Use the gun sight?OP is saying that he cant see forward of the gun for close direct fire and that he must use the map based LR aiming which I have just found to be true in some testing.
It must depend on scripting and difficulty setting of the mission.
It requires crosshair enabled in game options/difficulty and must be below expert level.
Which gunsight are you referring to?
-
all I need to do is go to 3rd person view:
you will be looking from a short distance behind the gun and you will have a clear view of target and crosshair.
just tested and found that it only works sometimes...?

when playing online without mods I often see enemy AI deploy smoke when fired upon.
I dont think I have ever seen my AI team deploy it tho...
-
to get the best info for OC you should go to an OC forum there are many... and with specific settings for just about any mainboard/cpu combo out there.
You will be able to find ppl with your setup that have found the best settings and the "LIMITS"
-
ok but they will keep patching Arma 2...cool
-
Lol...More people who fail to understand the meaning of "final" when applied to BI's patches. :j:
Sorry my bad... so BIS still do patches for ARMA1?
well that is good, I thought they would put all their effort into Arrowhead.
-
not sure about this thread
beta thread is no more...
I could be wrong but...
from what I can tell there will be no 1.06 coz 1.05 is "final".
-
where is the config file? can't find it in the arma 2 folder...my docs or windoze search...
