Recieving while playing

[duach]

Hey, sometimes when im playing i get the reciving screen come up during normal gameplay, just driving around or in combat, it sometimes wont happen for ages, and other times keep happening, it lasts about 15 seconds. Its not so bad on SP but on MP its a real pain, iv updated my drivers etc and lowered GFX settings but it makes no difference. Anyone know how to fix it ?

Hi,

I've got the game since release and didn't have the "Receiving"-Bug such often since I have patched to final 1.01.

When I play Evolution Marines 0.2 I get the blackscreen with the message hardle every 5minutes. If I press on "Respawn" or get killed, the games goes on normally at the respawn-point.

My sys:
6000+
2gig RAM
4870 (1gig)
vista sp1
25mbit connection

Whats the problem, do I need more memory? Its unplayable if the fuckin blackscreen comes every 5 minutes...


Second problem:
When I make a restart, the PC cant find the DVD (which is already inserted)...
Its the german release.
So I have to open the drive and close it again. Then the PC can read from the DVD. A friend has the same problem. So its not just because of my drive and he tested it on Vista and on XP...same problem!

I have exactly the same problem. It even happen sometimes in other missions, but very rare. Others can play that mission w/o any problems. I don't know if it is mission related or arma2.

What are ur settings? Maybe it belongs to a specific setting. Btw: Sometimes if I open the map, the bug just dissapear. Does not work always.

My settings:
Resolution: 1280x960
Fillrate optimizer: 88% (bug happens at 100% too)
Visibility: 1600
Texture detail: Normal
Video memory: Normal
Anisotropic filtering: deactivated
Terrain detail: Low
Object detail: Normal
Shadow detail: deactivated
Postprocess effects: Low

My System:
AMD Atholn X2 4800+ (2x 2,5 GHz)
2 GB RAM
ATi HD3870 (512 MB VRAM)
Win XP Pro SP3
16k DSL

This happened to me in arma, might be vid memory. So try turning texture detail down. And I know this sounds weird but for me in ARMA turning it UP fixes it, so try up aswell.

had that on a nvidia crad, updated the drivers, problem solved for me ( now running nvidias latest drivers, hope they are stable with arma as well )

[theclown]

Mhh, no the drivers are Up2Date...
Ive now installed WinXP32 and tonight I will give it a try. Hopefully it works better then-.-

And after 1.02 is released I will order a new DVD from the publisher. Disable securom or fix the DVD!

I don't think installing Win XP will make a difference because I have XP and bug happened to me as well. I found serveral other posts about that bug in the internet and everyone who has that problem has just 2 GB RAM like I have. May that the problem? Not enough RAM?

I had this problem extremly often on chernaurus.

After using Kegety's blur/bloom fix, I never saw the "Recieving" Screen again.

Damit wird ja die Grafik auch dramatisch anders oder?
Die ganzen "Schlier-Effekte" sind dann auch weg. Nicht das mich das stört....
