ARMA 2: OA beta build 94876 (1.61 MP build)

[DukeNukeM.]

@themaster303, i notice that too. sometimes joining empty server i get high fps, but as more players join in, fps keep dropping. somehow related to gpu usage, as i realize low gpu usage <50% gives less fps... the more AI the lower the gpu usage. but hard to repro like maverick said.

The situation that i remember where it happened didnt have much AI (the whole mission doesnt have, however AI numbers are a bit random and controlled by DAC), and there was nothing special going on. Thats why i wrote "unusual". And alt tabbing in and out of game fixed it. If it was AI or mission related than it wouldnt have been like that. And other players would have noticed it too at the same time, and that wasnt the case

Yeah, it was more like a memory leak or something, because as it was pointed out, Alt-tabbing solved the issue. For me, I had to keep doing it fairly often though, and it got annoying.

It doesn't happen all the time, either, so like I said before, it seems like it would be hard to repro.

Can you try if this also solves the issue?

Hold [Left Shift] down and then press the [Numpad - (minus)] button. Then let go and type FLUSH.

Since my fresh a2 + oa steam install 3 months ago, on a fresh win 7 64bit, i've had no graphical problems.

After installing this beta i see flashes of white textures on houses, trees etc. It's like for a second the texture is just plain white, then suddenly the original texture appears and gets normal shadowing etc put on it.

Spec: win7 64bit, gtx570, x-fi titanium. OS and Games on separate ssd's. Pretty much latest drivers for all.

Sure, i'll try to get it exact for you later.
For now: Chernarus. I was online, spawning about 1 mile from the coast near the forest line, Elektro houses visible to my east. The white texures appeared on houses and trees while i was looking around and zooming in.

(I forgot to mention my CPU, i7 3770K not OC.)

Hi Dwarden. I've tried many times to find a way to reproduce the white texture bug. I can't make it happen on command.
It seems completely random. Regardless of my pc has been on for a day, or turning it on in the morning and running around in chernarus.
