Hi, I've made Utes the -world and I can start Arma2 and use it normally, but even at lowest graphics settings trying to load Namalsk for me causes either an immediate CTD or it just remains athe the green loading screen until I crtlaltab out where it then CTDs. I havent tried any Beta's yet because I havent tried those ever so that will be my next step. Here is the bits from the Arma2.rpt that occur when loading Namalsk into the editor and then trying to run it. (It loads into the editor ok, just will not launch in game mode)..

Can we have the pilots moved to the right hand seats as per real life? It makes landing on the ship a lot easier!!! Beautiful helo's otherwise thank you a heap for making them.

Turns out my video cards were on the way to a bbq, hence my problems reported above. Thanks for respones and to BIS for my fav game.

Im getting CTD's whenever I try to load Arma2 with Namalsk island... it gets to the actual start menu and then booom, back to desktop with a crash to Arma2. I only downloaded it 2 days ago and AFAIK have the latest version of the island and the patch (I got it for ST6 #4 campaign!) I've got a few other islands installed and they work fine. I use the command line to load up big addon's like islands and even if I only load up Namalsk (and CBA, which seems to need to run for Arma2 to run now) it still does it. If I take Namalsk out of the launch parameters then Arma2 runs normal. I've got 14 files in the Addon folder of Nightstalkers; namalsk.pbo namalsk.pbo.NST.bisign ns.pbo ns.pbo.NST.bisign ns2.pbo ns2.pbo.NST.bisign ns_modules.pbo ns_modules.pbo.NST.bisign ns_patch.pbo ns_patch.pbo.NST.bisign ns_plants.pbo ns_plants.pbo.NST.bisign ns_rocks.pbo ns_rocks.pbo.NST.bisign Any ideas anyone?

Thanks, basically same I guess, without the CTD's though.

Nope. I guess if I hadnt of bought the steam version I'd just reinstall up to 1.03 - but this is 1st time Ive used steam so I'll go see if their is an option to to that with steam. I'll try the beta patch's first to see if that helps but otherwise the problem remains with 1.04 for me. Zoom/scope usually hastens onset of it.

Oh darn, Ive been enjoying ArmA2 for couple of months with no problems running it at all.... until this patch (1.04) and now after 5mins the colours go crazy and quickly become unable to use the game despite it seemingly running ok (can shoot and move from what glimpses I get before it gets too far gone visually). I thought I had the latest Dx10 files, but I ran the dxwebsetup.exe Version: 9.27.1734 Date Published: 9/16/2009 from microsoft's site anyway, but the problem remains unchanged. I set the video options to 'default' to no avail. The game is now unplayable for me, any ideas?
