Greetings, My clan is working on a Combat Life saver class to teach new recruits how to treat in Xmed. I am quite a noob when it comes to scripts and such, but is there already a system in the community to make self-wounding possible in Xmed? The goal is to have a scroll wheel or other type of interface to make it possible for players to cause specific wounds to themselves so we can test the students appropriately. I hate to ask our in-house programmers to make this if there is already something out there. Thank you.

This is exactly what we want. Is there anyway to make it a static line type jump where it automatically deploys the chute within several seconds of leaving? Does anyone know if there is a non-steerable chute in A3 yet? Either way, nice work on the port.

Thanks to both Leon86 and [GLT]Myke. Thats exactly the type of advice I was looking for. I am going to check how arma runs at different setting with my current set-up, clean out my case with air for maximum cooling, then try some modest OCing using your guy's advice. I have a feeling a new GPU is a good idea no matter what as I can always use it with any other upgrades I make in the future. I'll keep you up to date on my findings as I learned a lot from reading other people's outcomes. OK, results of benchmarking are done. FPS has huge improvement with shadow from low to high. Shadow very high = 32fps shadow disabled = 47fps. This seems to indicate my GPU is hurting. The difference between Antialiasing (with disabled shadow) is much less marked. Disabled AA = 47fps Very High AA = 43fps. For what it is worth my 3d resolution is 1120x700 (67%) with high setting on vid memory, all other settings low or normal and with vsynch enabled. It seems, using your guys advice, that upgrading my GPU makes a lot of sense and a modest OC might get me pretty good performance with that new vid card.

Greetings... I have been playing ARMA 2 on the following system, it is a few years old and it runs the game marginally. I am hoping to get some opinions on what would be the best part or parts to upgrade or replace in order to run the game at higher settings, better fps. I can spend 500-700 US dollars. I can also overclock a bit as I have a decent cooler and case. Gigabyte Tech P35C-DS3R Motherboard Intel Core 2 Quad CPU Q6700 @ 2.66Ghz NVIDIA GeForce 8800 GTX 4gigs of RAM Windows Vista 64 Should I upgrade the GPU to a top-notch one? CPU and GPU to decent level? Bother to account for Win 7? Save my money for a later upgrade that includes most everything? Any other options? BE specific as you want and thanks in advance for any advice....
