Patch 69645 - changes under the hood

[Thr0tt]

Just remove the grass and everything is fine, to be honest BIS should force the grass off for everyone. The grass is evil and makes NOBODY happy! Anyway good job BIS for fixing the bug

You speak for yourself please with the grass comment.

Name one good reason for having the grass on versus AI except for that it may look nice!

Everyone wanted grass to be added after OFP. There's your reason.

Be rational please. Removing grass instead of allowing people to enable/disable it as they please simply pisses off those who like to have it enabled, like myself.

True Zipper, but I am one of those unlucky people who are once in awhile playing with people who force grass on others, shame on them

[Zipper5]

Well, then, it's simply a matter of finding a different/better server.

Same ground glitch bug the further i go into the game.
rolled back to last beta. Though several domi tasks are problematic, older beta 'seemed' to run smoother for me.

Lets just agree to disagree! Personally I can't to play without grass but each to his own!

You just need to go outside and look around at the nature and there you have your answer.

The first time I ran the beta I had good impressions in general.
This is playing my own mission, that I know like the back of my hand.

I loaded the (same mission), the following day and boom!!! Missing ground textures...
I loaded a BIS single player mission, no missing textures.
I went back to "my mission" and the missing textures problem was still present.
This is all on Chernarus, btw, in and around Pusta..

Shut down the game... Restarted, loaded up "my mission" and everything was in order once again.

Has not happened since...

8800gt, latest drivers, Windows XP sp3, 3go ram.
All settings on normal, except shadows high and PP on low, VD set at 3058

I have not altered my settings in anyway.

Resolved in 69686, hoping we'll get a new update pretty soon.

thx @CarlGustaffa for that info and thx @BIS for resolving


btw. having moved my yesterday's post here about AI-Trouble (AI walking ghostlike through fences etc. instead of crawling underneath or climbing over) into a relevant bug-thread sorry for that, folks

Unless I f#cked up somehow with the install, the patch outright kills my Arma2. Taking away all mods and erasing and reinstalling the Beta twice, it locks my FPS somewhere in the low 2's, and every option from the loading screen on freezes the screen for up to 2 minutes.

Sorry buts its totally unplayable for me.
