Great minds think alike.

Short answer is no, AI calculations are server-side. Netcode alone would make that idea unworkable. How would client calculations sync? Headless client improves server performance BECAUSE AI calculations are no longer run on server.exe but on a separate arma.exe client thread on the same server hardware, 0 ping. So, server has less ai overhead and ai have less server overhead, separate cycles.

Cz02 is still up: http://arma3.swec.se/server/data/65434

Yeah, guy says in the steam thread: "Nvidia 326.01 drivers fixed my problems!" --notebook only.

Take a look at this: http://howto.cnet.com/8301-11310_39-57610729-285/how-to-uninstall-windows-8.1/ Doesn't look good. For the game, maybe it's a steam issue? Yep, trouble at steam: http://steamcommunity.com/discussions/forum/1/864971765292928449/

Wow..., thanks for taking the time to post. How's the axe-grinding going?

Judging by the OPs previous posts, he's not looking for solutions nor advice.

280m is an old card, not dx11. It compares to a 9000 series desktop card. If that's with a equally old core duo, it may not meet min. specs. for this game. That's why i asked what cpu it has. Moreover, the listed min. specs are ..., doubtful for realistic play.

What's your cpu John? Did you activate sli in nvidia CP after installing the new mobile driver?

i7-2760QM @ 2.40GHz? [edit] Ok, the 560m, "....The similarly named desktop GeForce GTX 560Ti is based on the GF114 chip and offers more shader cores and significantly higher performance than the GTX 560M. The GTX 550Ti is based on the GF116 and is closer to the 560M in terms of performance, but it still features relatively higher clock speeds. Therefore, the performance of the 560M is more on par with the older desktop GeForce GTS 450." http://www.notebookcheck.net/NVIDIA-GeForce-GTX-560M.48313.0.html I've got a gts 450 oc'ed to 880mhz from 720mhz stock.

Promised? Really?

Type 'cz' into filter. Both servers are up as i write. Cz02 has 37/40 playing wasteland.

Hookers & blow?

Normally i run nvidia half-refresh rate so t-buff on. "Override any application setting", yep or adaptive, no diff. Not a laptop, 24" monitor. Runs cool. The 450 i've had up to 950mhz on 1.11v. stable. So some headroom there. Main thing is not to push the rez.

Yeah, i can't replicate that in Kavala walking from the castle to the hospital. Need to push VD out to 10000 and object out to 5000m to see low low 30s. 3000m. VD seemed optimal in the 45-55fps range. And that's with a gts 450. Not tyring to pull your chain but for bis to fix something it needs to be readily replicatable across systems. I use 'bob's armory' for bench-marking --spawn in at 20-22 frames w/1600 VD. Great place to tweak setting: http://forums.bistudio.com/showthread.php?162385-SP-MP-Bobs-Armory-on-Altis&highlight=bobs

"But at 1920x1060 rez, 3000m VD, and ultra/high setting i only get 35fps --BIS, fix your game!" [/sarcasm]

Nerf our beloved rifles? Let us pray, "This is my rifle. There are many like it, but this one is mine. My rifle is my best friend. It is my life. I must master it as I must master my life. My rifle, without me, is useless. Without my rifle, I am useless. I must fire my rifle true. I must shoot straighter than my enemy who is trying to kill me. I must shoot him before he shoots me. I will... My rifle and I know that what counts in this war is not the rounds we fire, the noise of our burst, nor the smoke we make. We know that it is the hits that count. We will hit... My rifle is human, even as I, because it is my life. Thus, I will learn it as a brother. I will learn its weaknesses, its strength, its parts, its accessories, its sights and its barrel. I will keep my rifle clean and ready, even as I am clean and ready. We will become part of each other. We will... Before God, I swear this creed. My rifle and I are the defenders of my country. We are the masters of our enemy. We are the saviors of my life. So be it, until victory is America's and there is no enemy." Amen.

I heard the entire DayZ SA crew has disappeared into the flesh-pots of Bangkok. Rumor has it, Dwarden is ready, at a moment's notice, to fly there and rescue them. Soi Cowboy was the last place anyone was seen. Pics: http://www.bing.com/images/search?q=Soi+Cowboy&qpvt=Soi+Cowboy&FORM=IGRE

I just watch the change-logs. The work thru-put is impressive seeing the daily builds come like clockwork. Amazing what a steady diet of pilsner & pretzels can achieve.

here's :2402, http://arma3.swec.se/server/data/65434

Great idea, if Bis showcased the winners on a company server. Dwarden has hinted at a company server.

Strange problem with drivers. Do you uninstall before reinstall? http://www.nvidia.com/object/IO_13955.html Run installs as administrator for good measure.

"•By default, radios of each faction use their own encryption codes, so you will not hear enemy talks, even setting the enemy’s frequency. To listen to the enemy’s net (and talk on the air) - it’s necessary by any means to capture an enemy radio station." The phrase, 'By default' does imply the ability to configure perameters. Also, i wonder if Nato shares encryption codes with the Afghan army?

Nice features, congratz.
