  1. Post a screenshot of the YAAB results. In your original post, it is confusion with the statement of "6 E-Cores 0 P Cores".
  2. I found this ADL 12700KF with DDR5 benchmarked with ARMA 3:
  3. AMD Ryzen 5 3D V-Cache coming in Q1 2022: I am so looking forward to this as well... and even 5800X is dropping to 299 USD/Euros...
  4. There is DDR4 MB such as this for ~ 200 USD https://www.gigabyte.com/Motherboard/Z690-UD-DDR4-rev-10 But I agree we can wait a few months for Q1 2022 to see Ryzen with 3D vcache.
  5. Armaholics, the 12600K is out and looks to be THE best cpu for ARMA based on IPC - same as Ryzen but can turbo or be oc'ed to 5GHZ: original article here https://www.guru3d.com/articles_pages/core_i5_12600k_processor_review,7.html If you pair that with FAST DDR4-4000CL15 instead of expensive and slower DDR5-5xxx with CL40 timings, you have the best ARMA system right now. Only concern is the price of the new motherboards are nearly twice as much as before with good VRM and the CPU is HOT compared to previous Ryzen or Intel 11x00 series.
  6. This would have made a GREAT map of Hokkaido with CSAT Russian or North Korean vs Japan conflict!
  7. You can also try the AeoG mod on steam workshop. It has a version of Chernarus that is heavily expanded, it looks like it was based on this mod but fleshed out. Still you would need to apply a script to remove all the ground clutter to clean it up. https://steamcommunity.com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=1588425998
  8. This was possible cDLC?! Why not?! Who do not want to bring a seamless Black Mesa type experience to ARMA? That is a huge wet dream for many ARMA players! If you guys accept donations, we can send you things like steam gift cards at the very least.
  9. My Jebus! For all the naysayers saying ARMA 3 is dead, I think we are entering a renaissance! This, all the new cDLC, all the new and updated SciFi mods like Ravage, Remnant, Drongo's spooks, Devourer's Mutants, Johnny Boy's scripts, Vandeanson's next version of Apocalypse, all the cool new gear mods like Scion Conflict... Maybe we finally get the SciFi ARMA 3 BIS had wanted to make in the first place!
  10. My workhorse I7-4790K is on water cooler but with an old Corsair H50! It was the best value for money back then as it cost around a good air cooler. It cost me only around 40-50 USd back then which was a lot. 😄 It is way hotter than most CPUs but where I am, it is a necessity too... the ambient temp is high around here 9 months out of the year. Waiting for the Intel 12xxx series to come out and hope it will drop the Ryzen 5x00 series down in price. I am OK to stick with good fast DDR4 with low CL. Will just buy a new SSD and unplug my game SSD into it with the old 1060GTX until GPU prices get back down to something reasonable. Or get a 10600KF or 10700, 11700KF depending on price.

    Trip Wire Grenade

    I think you can rename it a "Trip Wire Grenade" in English as technically that is what it is. Great mod! I love it and your selective trigger for mines.
  12. You cannot exit Steam or you can try offline mode to minimize other factors. When I loaded up a ton of mods like Blastcore, over time, the page file and process RAM usage grew. Even ACE did the same thing in the past and ALL of my problems where fixed when I switched to 64-bit mode AND upgraded from 16 to 32 GB of RAM. I never have any FREE RAM issues now unless the SWAP file goes down less than ~ 2 GB of free space. As you said you can game for a few hours, then it crashes are signs of memory leaks. There is no double about this. One thing you can check it did you check the memory allocater in ARMA 3 Launcher - Parameters? You can switch between default (Intel) to another memory allocater and see if that is more optimized. I think the Intel version is best at 16 GB but if you have more ram, I would run the CMA at the cost of more RAM. Another thing you can do is simply CLOSE ARMA and RESTART it after 3 hours of gaming. If it is consistent, it is a memory leak issue and you have to choose more physical RAM or restart before the next online session. If offline, you just need to save your game, close ARMA and restart it. I used to do this when heavily playing online. It worked until I upgraded my RAM and now I game for 5+ hours (yes, ESCAPE can really last that long on a hardcore server) with zero performance issues.
  13. The ONLY other thing I can think of is Are you running with mods? 1) yes - get more RAM like I did - 24 GB was needed when I loaded up with mods. Check the Windows Task manager. 2) no, vanilla game only... make sure you have all background apps or as many closed.
  14. The game needs 16 GB of ram running 64-bit mode. If you run a ton of mods, I suggest upgrading to 24 or 32 GB like I did. Also check to see if the SWAP file is enabled and the HDD or SSD has around the same or more space as RAM free. This error is an out of memory error, either RAM or virtually.
  15. Scroll back one page and look at the picture from Groove_C. If you can setup a PC to run like his, you can get the same performance. So far, he has THE FASTEST ARMA system that I know of, but under those exact specs and silicone lottery. He might be even faster now with Winter coming soon. The second fastest was a 5800x or 5900x breaking 100 FPS with good memory running at 2000 MHZ 1:1 IF with the CPU. Scroll back 1 or 2 pages to find that post that I had referred to. The 5950x might get the same or better performance if you get a CPU with golden memory controller. I think the 5950x has THE best binned chiplets from AMD but no gurantees.
  16. You know you can get FREE performance if you find out exactly what RAM kit you have and lower the timings and increase the SPEED, if possible. Or you can think about a 5800x CPU + FASTER RAM. It should simply pop into your system with a Bios update, assuming your motherboard can support a 5x00x CPU. It also depends on what OTHER games you are interested in as well so you should get a new CPU that can benefit other games and applications as well. If you want to go CHEAP, check your MB compatibility and consider a 5600x, faster ram and a good cpu cooler. If you look back a few pages, the 5600x is a good CPU. The 5800x and 5900x are better with more cores and possibly better maxed turbo frequencies due to better quality chiplets.

    Arma 3 Art of War DLC Feedback

    I stand corrected. The American Red Cross, ICRC and IFRC all work together, but are supposedly separated, but also fall under the umbrella of IFRC. Hence all the confusion. https://www.redcross.org/about-us/who-we-are/history/global-red-cross-network.html But 100% agree on skepticism for any charitable organization.

    Arma 3 Art of War DLC Feedback

    I wonder did the annual report from 2010 show they misappropriate funds to Haiti as cited in this article: https://www.npr.org/2015/06/03/411524156/in-search-of-the-red-cross-500-million-in-haiti-relief This is the kind of nightmares that supports of charities want to avoid.

    Arma 3 Art of War DLC Feedback

    I would be interested to see an actual AUDIT of how the funds were spent from the Red Cross. If you see 90+% goto staff and operational costs, yet next to zero infrastructure, relief or funds to those who need help, why even effing bother? Just burn the money instead or give your sick, elderly, children or local community instead.
  20. I just want to add all these great traps and weapons to Ravage! Base defense just took on a WHOLE new level of immersion!!!
  21. Would this work with the compatibility data set? I own SOGPF but if we can use the gear in non SOGPF terrains or missions, that would be pretty cool as well. I love enabling the molotov and napalm in ARMA 3!

    Headless clients dont work

    Edit... I reread your message. Are you actually launcher the ARMA 3 game, then HOSTING it so your game client is both playing and letting other users connect to you? Post your server.cfg file so we can see how it is setup. Lastly, you need to make sure the mission you are hosting on the server, has the headlessclient modules placed into it, Press F5 in 3den to goto the correct menu, setup the module, then export it to a MP mission, then load that mission to the server. Then when you connect to the mission, it should show both player slots and headclient slots.
