-maxmem?

[Andersson[SWEC]]

What is this good for?
What do it do?
Who can do this??

I have a Geforce6800GT PCI-X.
Is there something in -maxmem for me??

The -maxmem parameter places an artificial limit on how much memory the ArmA.exe can have access to.

Most people (including myself) have used the -maxmem commandline parameter to avoid the "Cannot Create System Memory Surface" CTD. Much to my surprise, I found that prior to the release of 1.08 my ArmA Mark results were BETTER if I used -maxmem=512.

My suggestion: get ahold of the ArmA Mark and test it out for yourself.
