NVIDIA video card(s) owners read here!

The images just look horribly unstable. They always have in all of my Arma and OFP games.. I kinda ignored it. I just happen to have a fantastically built cpu here and I wish I could somehow fix this problem. It really kills the feeling of being a sniper when you are shooting a guy who looks like hes standing next to a piece of modern art instead of a hangar. (the hanger is obviously what it is.. it just flickers... I donno how to describe it..

I wish I knew how to take a screenshot in vista...

I like that. If I am a 8===D and a (|) then I am totally self sufficient. That is awesome.

LMFAO....

That post is a Classic...

Holy crap. I went into the config and changed



TexQuality=3;
TexMemory=3;

Really enhances the visuals!

Btw, possibly interesting for i7 / Nvidia combo owners; http://www.tomshardware.com/reviews/...80,2156-2.html

It describes performance issues on i7 + nvidia GPU, not sure if it is still valid with the current drivers, and / or which workarounds are available.

I seem to have it running alright now, with AA off except for when I'm looking directly at any sort of foliage, then it comes down to a crawl. Of course it's always randomly crashing and rebooting my entire pc... I'm not sure whether this is my card that I need to RMA or what, but I need to do more testing.... This is taking up way too much time.

Arma 2 Steam version

On my system it is impossible to get the game playable at a decent frame rate (30fps) or higher. All of the suggestions mentioned in this topic have been tried, but no success in raising the frame rate. It does not matter if I use low or high settings, dual gpu or single gpu, physX on or off, SLI enhancement from EVGA, other drivers. The first loading screen with the battleship does show that it is possible to increase the FPS by adjusting settings, but as soon as I go in-game the frame rate drops to an unplayable fps.

Question for technical support from BIS: How is this possible? Is there a chance that we as legal buyers of this game get an official explanation of where the problems originate?
Also I would like to know on what configuration the development team developped and played this game and what drivers they used and what settings they used. Maybe this would be of some help already.

Is there currently being worked on patches to deal with the graphical problems?

I believe that we as consumers have the right to a formal answer.

i think you may have just proven your ability to create systems

These days 8====D + 8=====D and (|) + (|) are systems and only in Utah can you have 8===D + (|) + (|) + (|) be a system

Montana: 8===D +

The problem with this is, when I pull down the Video Memory menu, the only options I have to select from are Low and Normal. It was my understanding that if the game would correctly identify the card's actual memory, it would enable the High/Very High settings.

I have the same problem like, Texture/LOD blotching.

Game looks like crap.

I only have low and normal options as well. I have 1792mb of vid mem. WTF.

This game was clearly made for ATI cards.

I hope this fix this sooner than later.

I upgraded my system to play this game so I guess I'm a bit disappointed.
