Hey! I recently reinstalled Arma 2 Operation Arrow Head and Arma 2 Free. Upon installing the DayZ mod again and joining a game, I find that absolutely no server I join, provides a good frame rate. In fact it drops to 5fps when I look straight across the landscape in Cherno. When I look up into the sky it will give me about 15fps. This is a ridiculous drop in fps from what I used to have. I have no idea why it is so low. Some which is odd that I did notice though, is that the writing on the screen is distorted and blurred as though it is in a very low resolution. Everything is almost impossible to read. I cannot see any reason that I would suddenly get ridiculously low fps when I previously ran the game at around a very playable 35-40 fps. My specs are: Intel i3 4 Core M 370 2.40GHz. 8gb DDR3 Ram. 64-bit OS.
