I just wonder how will console players tweak/test/reconfigure and update their systems to run this game? Much less add the needed -xboxlive.exe extensions?:D Those console boys don't have much patience for these things ya know?

Try CTRL/ESC, works for me every time. Seems like every game I play someone has an issue with ALT/Tab. I have used CTRL/ESC to minimize games for years and it has worked flawlessly in nearly every game I have played.

226 BW is the exact same monitor I am using and 1680x1050 is the native resolution for it...........Why are you trying to run 1440x900 on it in the first place?...........:confused:

I installed the beta last night and played for a few hours. It ran perfectly until I got to Cherno and then I had texture loading nightmare. I couldn't even hardly move it was so bad. Like a CPU test on 3D mark or something. I haven't had issues like this before. I'll give it the benefit of the doubt and give it another shot today hopefully. Maybe it was something on my end.

I know what you said smart ass hence the "I can't speak for any others" portion of my reply. Seeing as how you can't even figure what resolutions are supported without forum help, I figured you needed all the feedback you could get.

The trackir 5 comes with a clip. If you have a hat that is all you need. That's what I use.

I'm on patch 1.03 and I use 1680 x 1050. I can't speak for any others.

Playing Arma 2 on a laptop is bad enough.............................but using the touchpad to play it? I really don't know what to say to that.

First off........................Screenshots maybe? Detailed system specs, game/gpu settings etc? If you want help you need to give some real details. ---------- Post added at 07:11 PM ---------- Previous post was at 07:05 PM ---------- It's a common theme with his posts bashing 200 series cards and harping on why 8000 series are superior. I think some salesman must have suckered him and now he needs others to believe it to make himself feel better about the purchase.

I just hit my center view key then spin around with my gunsight.

Why would you even think that a dedicated PC game would play in an xbox 360?:confused:

First thing I did in this game was delete most of the default controls and remap them.

About the same here. I can hit 90 on the silo's and about 330ish looking into the sky. Didn't check the smokestack though.

I liked it. How did he get the guys to stand there with their hands above their heads?

Since I went SLI I lost my slot for my XFI and went back to Realtek onboard HD. It works great for me. I can't tell a difference in my 5.1 experience compared to XFI at all.

Man I just bought this 280 on newegg for $224 http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16814130427 Not sure why it is showing up as $239 but anyway. It is recertified but I could care less. It has a 90 day warranty return policy and has ran great for me. Maybe worth a look man. More card for barely more money. I have mine overclocked to 650/1397/1158 core/shader/memory and it runs fantastic.

Nope, I'm waiting for the 300's myself. Then I plan to retire one of my 280's to a dedicated phys x & run sli 300's. The other 280 will go to my boys computer.

Hell, I'll give them a go. Downloading now. Edit..........................nevermind. They are only available for 32 bit vista and windows 7 atm.

On EVGA precision it will be greyed until you hit the auto button next to fan speed. Click AUTO then set fan to 100%, click "apply at windows startup. Your done.

It's not wasting if you enjoy it. Hell I enjoy getting new gear, tweaking on it and running benchmarks and stuff almost as much as I like gaming itself.

You need to download a 3rd party tool like riva tuner. http://www.guru3d.com/category/rivatuner/ Or EVGA Precision. http://www.evga.com/PRecision/ With either of those you can set your fans to manual 100% and it will automatically turn them up when you boot up your pc unless you change it.

I generally run between 50 & 120 fps depending on whether grass is on or not. Some servers force on grass and that kills my fps. Knocks me down to 40's sometimes high 30's. BTW-that's with everything on very high/pp normal/aa normal 1680x1050.

Alright, I got it to work. I was trying to put the file only in the missions folder. Apparently you have to put the entire folder in it. Here is my results using the specs you posted: View Distance :1000 Resolution :1152*864 Render Res :1152*864 Textures :Normal Texture Mem :Normal Tex Filtering :Very High AntiAliasing :Low Terrain Detail :Normal Object Detail :Normal Shadows :High Post Process :Very High However that resolution is not native for my monitor so I took another screen @ 1680 x 1050 which is my native resolution if you care to see the results.

Yea, that's what I meant.

Your CPU is a bottle neck.
