ArmA2 / OA (low) performance issues
xx_fr0st-w0lf_xx replied to R3fl3x's topic in ARMA 2 & OA - TROUBLESHOOTING
I have a small question is this normal? I have a intel 4 gbites of ram (quad) I got it around 2008 I play arma at everything set to very low except objects and textures to normal. If there is anything I can turn off in the video setting I already turned it off, and I am getting 14 fps on OA benchmark. No matter what I put in the lauch (-winxp -maxmem -cpucount=2 or 4) nothing improves. I thought you know what maybe that what my comp can handle but before I called quits I checked my cpu usage during the benchmark. My cpu usage was capped at 30-40% (cpucount=4) Why? Why cant it be 80 or 90 why only 40% It never surpassed 50% If you can give any tips i would really apreciate it or of my computer is too old just let me know :( Thanks in advance (before you go about telling me to overclock and change hardware just want to let you know Im not good with computers, I didn't know what overclocking meant untill yesterday ) -

I used to be in a clan, those were really fun times and we had a lot of varied missions, but unless you join one you will find arma 2 multiplayer to be much more inferior to other games currently on the market. Join a clan and that turns the tables completly, never had more fun on a game then those few months I was in a small clan. Problem with a clan is they often have scheduled games, and my schedule was complicated enoguh without having to find room for gaming. Aswell as the patience it takes -
ATTN NOOBIES! - New to ArmA II or OA - Here's the place for your questions
xx_fr0st-w0lf_xx replied to wraith_v's topic in ARMA 2 & OA - GENERAL
I have but one question, I got arma 2 a while ago but stopped playing it and slowly getting back into it. Is ACE worth it if yourr only going to play single player. I used to use it a bit online back in the day but that is when I was part of a clan and those days are long gone .I currently do not have the time and/or patience to join another one anytime soon. So for basic singleplayer (and use of the editor) is ACE worth it? Do you use it for single player? Thanks in advance -
My pc can run arma 2 at a stable 25 fps on everything set to around normal. the graphics and fps is the only reason I don't only play this game.

I stopped playing arma 2 for a while and just got back into it and looking for a good AI enhancement I was debating between zeus and ASR but after trying out zeus for about 3 hours I think Im going to use ASR. Zeus gave me to many problems. Especially when it came to ammo and cover aswell as it wasn't updated in a long time. I just have 2 quick questions if you don't mind. 1) Is it compatible with slx wounds. I really don't mind if I have to remove any other pbo, wounds is the only thing I like about slx. Just wondering if the injuries and healing work with them both combined. 2) Tweaking units would be used to change the skill level of a unit? So lets say I want independent fighters to be the lowest one how would I go about doing that. Thank you very much in advance

I would buy combined ops. The 2 expansion packs are not that important if you ask me

Just bought this. Need some help.

If I were you, I would not touch mp untill you have finished boot camp, and at least some single player missions. Once you hit MP as it was mentioned you must play on the 2 maps that come with AO When you do begin to install mods thought I highly recomend six updator, but thats a diffrent topic.... -
ace is just amazing. But for single player I don't mind gl4

What is wrong with the ARMA Community!
xx_fr0st-w0lf_xx replied to SSgt Decker's topic in ARMA 2 & OA - GENERAL
I have to agree and disagree with the original poster. I found multiplayer on arma 2 be really bad. Then I joined a clan, now thats all I play with on arma 2. For mp you need a clan to have fun. You need one. Also not all clans make you say yes sir. Actually I've never seen one make you say sir at all. I don't blame clans for making training missions and such and you need some sort of order in clans to do things that is why you need to follow the chain of command. As for domination and warfare. I find it fine when your alone. But I would perfer a co op mission or insurgency by far. -
No I do not use any of those mods and do not use ACE but thanks anyway. Despite removing some good pbo's because of crashing I find this mod to be one of the best for arma 2, and if it was fixed ( some pbos) It would be the best mod out there. Thanks solous for the hardwork you put in it.

Thanks for your help with the mod, to bad its not currently being worked on. I rechecked the list of PBO's you've mentioned and I will remove all except for net code. if we remove that then wounds won't work properly since wounds is dependent on netcode, and the main part I like about the mod is wounds. i will reove the PBO next time i go on arma and i will let you know if fixed the problem Edit; well found another bug after a person is revived sometimes they sit there and refuse to move This is what I am going to do with the mod I'm going to take wounds and every other pbo it is depending on and keep them, everything else I am going to delete. The 2 real things i wanted was the good healing/ wounding systeme and improved AI. If I can get 1 out of 2 working with out fault it would have been worth the trouble. I really enjoy the blood on the floor and the people yelling and such Also Gunter I checked your sig where you had the link to all the other mods. I am going to get a lot of them because they all look really good. Might help with some AI problems. Thanks for your help with the mod. really worked hard the list aswell, really appreciate it -frost

More problems are occuring as i play with the mod After taking out vehical effects the crashes stoped for a while and then started again. I took out GL3 and now hostage taking does no seem to work anymore which i understand because gl3 had something to do with out. It stoped crashing for good and then it gave me some ore crashes to desktop. I'm not sure what else to remove. In the game i have been experiencing problems aswell. Sometimes my gun would refuse to shoot even with a freshly loaded clip and full health. Firing 10 semi automatic shots with any gun. Only 2-5 come out of the gun and other times it shoots all 10. I'm not sure what causing this but in close combat I'm always the first to die Also one question is the mod still under development (such as bug fixes0 thanks in advance
-
oh wow. This is my first mod so I have not yet installed CBA got it and it works well......except for the constent freezing. I saw your post on what PBOs to remove so I'm tring it out now to see which one is the one causing it. The game freezes at the same point, when I call an artilery on a group of guys. ( never froze with out the mod ) so far these are my results. ( freeze meaning i took out that mod and it didnt stop the freeze GL3 = freeze GL3 give radios = freeze EDIT: vehicle effects : = BAM NO FREEZE so yea for me it was vehicle effects causing the crash which makes sense since the arty was on some trucks thanks gunter for the post you posted listing the possible pbos helped me A LOT :)

Hey i got a problem with this mod: Everything works fine ( I can see AI improuvements) except for a few things. Being wounded. I have no options to bandage or carry dead bodies and I have never seen a injured person on the floor. Does it require first aid simulator to work? (i don't think so) I also never seen someone get gibed before even useing arty strikes directly on people any help would be apreaciated.

I'm new to arma got a module with support and the big arty guns and the secops manager and all that, but your way looks a lot easier.

I just bought combined Operations and played arma 2 campaign ( last mission) and about half way trough OA campaign. I honestly enjoyed the arma 2 campaign a lot.Good story line nice fire fights I found it good and realistic. The fact that you start as a private, then command your 4 man team, then a bunch of Independents. Really nice. Then I tried OA campaign and I really dislike it compared to arma 2 one. first mission your a random soldier then you lead a convey later your a random pilot. What I liked about arma 2 one is your all the same guy

Hello, I just got arma combined operations and I find the game to be amazing. The best part in my opinion is the editor where anything could happen I learning how to make the player call in support on a mission ( air strike, ammo drop...ect) but I'm running into some problems and have a few questions 1) How can I do it to limit the amunt of support a unit has. Lets say I want them to have 2 ammo drops and 1 air strike and not unlimited, what must I do for that? 2) Is it possibal to create a non controllable support for example an airstrike is to bomb a city when it detects BLUEFOR about 500m away. I would make the trigger for that but what must I put in the "on act" field. Thanks in advance any help would be appreciated:)

Editor: some question on support.

Convince Friends to Play Arma. Which videos do it best?
xx_fr0st-w0lf_xx replied to weaponsfree's topic in ARMA 2 & OA - GENERAL
I tried to convince my friend about the game. Showed him many videos spoke to him about the mission editor and so on and he didn't like it. he comes to my house I make a small mission where he's a rabbit and everyone around him is killing each other. He was so amazed he buys the game
