    Location: Chicago (GMT-6)

    Microphone & teamspeak: yes (ventrilo as well)

    Ready to pay for a server?: Not yet.

    Games: Arma2

    User codename: saedrin

    ACE: No, but I can install whatever you require or suggest.

    Roles preferred: Sniper/marksman

    Time spent with Arma2 and skill/experience: Very little in game. I played quite a bit after release and then I became busy with school and work, leaving little time for FPS. I have RL long-range rifle experience, and I prefer long distance shooting.

    I'm a smart, quick witted guy and dead reliable. Just looking for a squad that needs some sniper support on their ops. Feel free to PM me if you'd like.


  2. Recently I got Arma 2 working perfectly, no issues at all and I was a happy camper. Until today. Nothing on my system was changed, the last thing I did yesterday was play Arma 2, and now I'm having an interesting issue.

    My FPS is oscillating in a "sin wave" style curve, up and down, up and down, even when I stare at the sky and don't move, it's the exact same. I watch my fraps FPS draw a pretty wave graph on my keyboard while it does this. I notice also that my CPU usage has turned into a sin wave as well, as is my GPU usage.

    The hell????

    :mad:


  3. Dude.. they do test the system... in various pc spec and configurations... in a lab environment... but the real world is bigger than the lab... and almost infinite number of configurations/hardware. They cant test all the possibilities...

    It doesn't work with the latest nvidia drivers on the GTX200 series cards. This is what I would classify as a "large oversight".


  4. Arma 2 is running like total ass.

    1st- I cannot change my video memory size or texture quality past normal, the options are missing.

    2nd- The textures are randomly loading and unloading EVERYWHERE. The city looks like some type of retarded joke.

    3rd- LOD is not working, and by not working, I mean working everywhere all the time. I can look at a humvee and watch it go from full detail to a block of ass and back within 5 seconds, without moving more than 10 feet away, even if I'm stationary.

    4th- The lag, even on the lowest settings is random and annoying. It just goes from running fine to running like shit, randomly.

    What the fuck is this?

    I just spawned in the middle of an ocean after starting a co-op campaign.

    THE FUCK?


  5. Like the title says, I've been having issues with my video settings in ArmA 2 so far. I cannot move the Video Memory or Texture Detail sliders to anything above "low" or "normal", there is no "high" or "very high" like I've seen in screen shots. I've tried a couple different nvidia drivers will still no luck... I searched and couldn't find a conclusive result to this issue beyond a bunch of hypothetical solutions. Changing the memory size in the .cfg to my card's memory in bytes does nothing either. :confused:

    Any thoughts??
