[Crossfire problem] ARMA 2 OA Texture LOD/Low FPS/Massive stutter

[Leon86]

indeed, and if crossfire doesnt work it's much more likely only ati can fix it. Sli works fine so I doubt it's a fault in arma.

This isn't just about crossfire, I'm not a CF user. It's a VRAM detection issue affecting texture LODs. It happens with single cards as well as crossfire.

then why are you posting in a topic starting with [crossfire problem]

[eosteric]

Because it's the same problem. Just a lot of CF users don't seem to understand that. But it's the exact same problem affecting both CF and non-CF users.
Why don't you post something useful instead of asking me why I'm posting what I'm posting.
It's really tiring having to explain myself to those who don't understand what's going on, I've explained the problem in multiple threads already, and it's a confirmed, acknowledged problem by the devs, I've found out. Now I'm just waiting for the fix, in an official patch.

Oh, and BTW: It's not affecting just ATI users either.

I had some similar problems with an HD5870 but as I said in another thread, try using the default graphical settings without messing too much with the advanced ones. It did the trick for me. Example: manually putting everything to very high made textures look really bad, but once I chose Very High on the default Graphic quality everything was fine!
