I'm afraid it's your card that seems to be the major culprit.When the 6100 was released back in 2005 it was below par even then.My advice upgrade your Graphic card to something a little more recent. -

errror creating direct3d 9 graphical engine

Make a new short cut for arma delete old one.If that doesn't work use driver cleaner or similar programme to remove graphic drivers.And then reinstall new up to date Drivers.First one worked for me hopefully the combination of the two may work for you. -
Xeno i just want to say Thanks for your tireless efforts and kudos for your missions.They are by far the best I and my clan have played thus far.Well done I and many others really appreciate it:bounce3:

Pitch/Roll Rates of Helicopters

Agreed.I found that the Cobra has a tendency to drop out of the sky like a bag of Hammers when doing a high speed strafing run. -
Defrag. softw. Diskeeper 2009 Pro does the trick - removes the stuttering completely
merlin851526 replied to p75's topic in ARMA 2 & OA - TROUBLESHOOTING
I have the same stuttering problem as well.I had the stutterings while flying over large towns pre 1.03 and now it seems to occur every 4 Mins or so and lasts for about 2 Seconds no matter where i am on the Map.And that's with the view distance turned right down.:confused: -
Keep getting black screen with 'Receiving'

Been getting it for the past week now.Very annoying particularly when your the pilot of a Blackhawk doing 250 knots with a full squad:mad:. -

Hmm cant seem to Get ARMA 2 to run now since i installed the new 190.38.Every time i try to start the game i keep getting the dreaded error message"Error creating Direct3D Graphical engine".Followed the usual procedures, uninstalled previous drivers etc[Driver cleaner]All to no avail.Just wondering if anybody else seems to be experiencing the same issue.I've also noticed that this Direct3D error seems only to affect ARMA 2 as all my other games work fine with the new 190.38 drivers. -

I tried the the old 178.series drivers and have found they have given me a huge boost in fps as opposed to the current crop of recent nvidia drivers.I don't know if this will help anybody in general but i tried everything else and this for me has worked better than any other solution.May work for some may not.Im using 9800gt 512mb DDR3. -
I just want to say to all the fellow admins out there to stay the course and do not allow, what is in my opinion a significant number of petulant children to destroy ARMA 2 multiplayer.Just tonight we had to spend quite some time in removing a collection of utter morons from our public server and remove them we did.They ranged from the usual suspects such as i wanna fly why cant i get in the Cobra and then Teamkilling the pilot. Teamkilling entire squads in black hawks as they took off from the airport.Destroying assets at the base.And last but not least ramming aircraft as they take off.Now i don't want people to misunderstand me. With every new game there is a learning curve and we pride ourselves in going out of our way in order to help new players get the most from ARMA 2. The above instances are not the actions of people who don't know what there are doing for the most part.They are quite clearly deliberate. Now i have been around for quite a while with regard to online gaming. Having cut my teeth with the old Medal of Honour series on a 56k modem ,long before Mr Broadband showed up:).And despite this particular longevity i have not witnessed such stupidity such petulant behaviour as i've seen since ARMA 2 hit the net.And up until recently i thought BF2 was a bad as it got:rolleyes:.However my fellow clan members and i will not be deterred and as my thread title suggests we will stay the course.I'm simply asking all the other Admins out there to do the same.I have no doubt that the excellent mod community will address the issue of a proper RCON but it will take some time im sure.We ourselves are currently working on the same issue. So finally if you want to join us on our server where we actively encourage team play and constantly admin our server you are more than welcome.But if you are the type who just wants to cause grief, well all i can say is your stay will be a short one i guarantee it .

Error creating Direct3D 9 Graphical Engine
merlin851526 replied to Mandalorian's topic in ARMA 2 & OA - TROUBLESHOOTING
Ok this worked for me.I didn't have to follow all of the previous suggested steps like messing with a reinstall of vista etc.All i did was to get rid of Nhancer and problem solved. -
Error creating Direct3D 9 Graphical Engine
merlin851526 replied to Mandalorian's topic in ARMA 2 & OA - TROUBLESHOOTING
I have exactly the same problem after i Reverted back to an older Nvida driver.Now after countless uninstalls installs still no joy.Even after using driver cleaner and putting back on the current Nvidia drivers.Sigh this game is getting to be more trouble than it's worth methinks:( -
Thank you very much it was indeed the G15 that was causing the menu freeze.Said keyboard now residing on the shelf:).Thank you once again.
