    Invasion 1944 - DDay 2.0

    I searched the thread but couldn't find anything about this. Voice commands aren't playing any sound, and there are no accompanying captions. I've updated the mod with all the latest patches and fixes. Also, the Germans don't speak German (though I've heard them shouting German in some gameplay videos).

    PR for BF2 plays nothing like vanilla BF2 anyway.

    Are there any mirrors for the patches? I'm having problems downloading from the ones provided.

    I would've gone with the MS IGLOO style, since the later incarnations of the UC universe tend towards more realistic designs. For humanoid mechs, would it not be possible to simply use the existing human skeleton + animations, and just scale everything up 10x?
  5. Start up ARMA, go into a mission, stand still and observe your framerate. Wait a few minutes, then minimize the game. Wait a few more minutes, then switch back to your game, and see if your framerate has increased. Then see if it goes back down after a little while. Make sure to stand still in game. Please give in actual numbers what your framerates were before and after. I can get to 30-50 frames after minimizing, after which it drops back to around 20 and below.

    Can everyone do us a favour and test this out, at least to confirm that this isn't just us. Start up ARMA, go into a mission, stand still and observe your framerate. Wait a few minutes, then minimize the game. Wait a few more minutes, then switch back to your game, and see if your framerate has increased. Then see if it goes back down after a little while.

    Strange Stutter Problem

    Update This odd stuttering/performance drop occurs in vanilla ARMA as well, so I don't think its a problem with 1.55.
  8. WHAT? COME ON! Is there any way around this? I don't want to have to start all over again :mad:

    I'm using cpucount = 4 and exthreads = 7 and it seems to have no effect.

    Find and Capture Lopotev Help (spoiler warning)

    @MissionCreep You can find Swordsman's chatlog under Shaftoe. What I hate about this is that you don't know whether something is working like it should, or if its a bug. When I approached the Quarry, my squad immediately takes out all of the Chedaki there, except one, who manages to escape by running up the impossibly steep cliff face. Cooper says his line about spotting 3 men at the "cottage", but being able to identify them. After moving in closer to the quarry, Cooper then contradicts himself by saying that there is nobody in the Quarry. ??? I only attempted this mission once. I wanted to go back and try again, but as someone pointed out already, for some stupid reason, once the campaign advances, you lose your savepoints. I was in Solnichniy when I got the 20min mission, so I drove to Shakhovka, then from there took the most direct route to Gorka, but I didn't spot any red hatchbacks. Once I arrived in Gorka (which I'm quite sure was under 20 minutes), I got the message that he had escaped. Quite disappointing really. I had only managed to check one of the camps and the Quarry prior to that. I was hoping I would have more chance to explore the island before the game forced the campaign to advance on me without being able to recover my saves! :mad: Manhattan lets you take your time, but I've finished all the obvious leads and now I'm just wandering around the country.

    I have Combined Ops on Steam, so I assume it's automatically patched to the latest version.

    It's quite frustrating, because clearly my system is capable of running the game at an adequately high framerate, but something unknown seems to be bogging it down... How do I check my framerate in game?

    losing performance!

    I didn't say 40-50 FPS was barely playable For me, my framerate seems (I don't know how to check my framerate in game) to go down to 10-20, but alt tabbing brings it back up to 20+ for a short while, as does saving, changing video settings, and bringing up the map.

    Same for me too! Alt tabbing seems to boost my performance for a little while before it degrades back to barely playable.

    Strange Stutter Problem

    Something else that is weird: Whenever I return from viewing the map, saving the game, changing video settings or alt-tabbing, my performance is smooth...for several seconds, before degrading again. I have no idea why this would happen...From all this, it seems that my system is perfectly capable of running the game smoothly at the given graphics settings, but something is slowing it down... Oh, I didn't mention this before, don't know if it's important, but I'm running Combined Operations.
