    ArmA 2 I/O analysis results

    Thanks for this post and all the great replies. I just happened to upgrade to 6gigs from 4 on my system. Going to try the beta patch first and see how that runs. If I don't see any gains I will attempt to setup a Ramdrive. Thanks again for everyone's great work on this thread! It should be stickied!
  2. Well, I am up to 6gigs of ram on my PC now. Going to try and create a 4gig ramdisk and find out which files are loaded the heaviest and throw those in there. Hopefully I will see some performance gains. I have noticed one strange thing though. When I first start off playing (campaign) my frames are in the mid to low 30's. After a while of gaming they dip down to the 20's. A reboot of my PC seems to fix the issue until I start getting into the 1 hour mark of playing again. *EDIT* Nm, I found Liquidpinky post. http://forums.bistudio.com/showpost.php?p=1464956&postcount=100 Thanks!
  3. Well, I have tried and tried to tweak this game but can only get about 20ish FPS in cities. Windows 7 64bit Retail EVGA 680I Motherboard Intel Q8200 Quad Core 500gig Samsung Spinpoint SATA3.0 Sapphire 4870 512meg (Latest ATI drivers) 6gigs Crucial PC6400 I have used the tweaks suggested from the Armaholics Optimization forum thread and used the No Bloom, Low Res Structures/Buildings/Vegetation mods. Also using the -winxp, -cpucount=2. The cpucount actually gave me about 5 frames, so that one worked pretty well. If I recall correctly, my ingame settings are (starting with left row down) low, default, off, off, low, medium, low, low, disabled. I have my view distance set to 2000 and my resolution and 3D set to 1680x1050. It is still playable, just wanting to push a few more frames if I can.

    Windows 7 and Arma 2

    I'm running the game on Win 7 64bit 680i LGA775 MB Core2 Due E6550 Radeon 4870 512MB 4 gigs Crucial Ballistix 2x Sata Drives (independent) On default settings I get pretty low frames. Still tweaking a bit here and there to get it running good. Have not had any CTD's or BSOD's.

    3 weeks = hopeless Arma 2 addict!

    HA! I do the same things lol. I mainly like to fly the huey. Spawn one at the airbase with some soldiers on the side. Load them up and fly off to a city land and have them exit. Mainly just practicing before I go online in co-op, perfecting my transportation duties! :D

    DICE pays attention to PC Gamers, apparently

    So you are saying you are going to be able to use the following online as quoted per Leopardi A Wallhack cheat? Ummm, no, this isn't going to be something used online... unless it is being described here wrong. Undestroyable tanks - What would be the point of playing anything else... The rest I don't care about.

    I didn't watch the youtube video. Who cares if they get that in the collectors edition... not like you are going to be able to use that crap online lol.

    Man, you really misread my post entirely. Sheesh... :391: Please show me where I said there are thousands of players. Go ahead, scroll up and quote it if you can find it... because I can't. Oh wait.... here is what I said which you took out of context: You asked the following question; And I gave the reasons why subscription fees are needed for MMO style games. That doesn't mean WWIIOnline in general, that pertains to all MMO games. WWIIOnline can handle up to thousands of players, but I didn't say it does have thousands. Hell, I don't even play WWIIOnline anymore, there is no point since the community is so small. Maybe if you read my initial post you would have caught that... ADD? You seriously need to chill out and relax, especially with that stupid Codemasters reference :o: I don't care about OFPDR...

    No dedicated server on MW2 as well...

    Great post Chaostika7-17th and the video really shows the dedication that Grant had in making COD4:MW for all platforms, especially PC. Really wish he was still there... :(

    I got banned from their forums on Monday... Oh well, good riddance to that game and site. Actually, good riddance to Codemasters, last product I will ever touch of theirs.
