How might this run arma 2? New system i'm thinking of putting together. Intel Core i7 950 Asus Rampage 3 Gene Scythe Mugen 2 Rev.B Corsair Dominator TR3X6G1600C8D OCZ Vertex 2 SATA II 2.5" SSD 60GB Western Digital Caviar GreenPower WD20EARS, 2TB Cooler Master HAF 922 Cooler Master Silent Pro M850 EVGA GeForce GTX 460 SuperClocked 1GB GDDR5 PCI-E X2 Samsung Synmaster p2470h Also posted this in Offtopic.

I'm looking into buying a new game/workstation to run Arma 2 and photoshop/3ds max with a lot of multitasking going on. This is what i was thinking: Intel Core i7 950 Asus Rampage 3 Gene Scythe Mugen 2 Rev.B Corsair Dominator TR3X6G1600C8D OCZ Vertex 2 SATA II 2.5" SSD 60GB Western Digital Caviar GreenPower WD20EARS, 2TB Cooler Master HAF 922 Cooler Master Silent Pro M850 EVGA GeForce GTX 460 SuperClocked 1GB GDDR5 PCI-E Samsung Synmaster p2470h I want to add another video card in the near future but i'm still up in the air about getting the EVGA GTX 460 X2 or the Sapphire 5850 x2. What would be best for arma? Also do you guys think i could run this with a 600 watt psu? 850 might be a bit much. I might add another 6 gigs soon and the second video card. Might switch the Scythe mugen 2 for a corsair H70? With no oc'ing no more cooling should be needed i hope:) First system i've built in a while so i'm not to sure, any comments/tips would be appreciated. Thanks

When i click execute in "main" i get this. The program seems to be already running. Please wait/close the other application first. If you believe this is in error, please delete C:/Program Files/Six-Updater/six-updater.pid Only one instance of theupdate is running.

Yep, thanks guys that was indeed it.

Right you are. No other mods present in the directory, no other addons installed in the standard addon folder and as you can see nothing except the beta in the target line. I thought it might be because of some non-bis addon in the addon folder but its all pure in there. "C:\Program files\Bohemia Interactive\ArmA 2\arma2.exe" -mod=beta

It does not seem to be a shortcut problem. When executing the game from the beta patch map i get this error.

Ever since i installed the last 2 beta patches i've had this error pop-up whenever i try and start the game. The game tries to start up and then fall back to desktop. Anybody else get this error?

I'm having some problems playing Arma2 on my computer, the full retail game and the demo are both unplayable when my computer is connected to the internet. The screen hangs for a few seconds and then runs fine for 10-20 seconds before hanging again. I thought it might be because of my firewall/antivirus and tried shutting it all down including windows firewall, but still no joy. Only when i pull the network cable from my pc does the game play normal. I'm thinking its a windows 7 64bit problem and offcourse i cant play online now:rolleyes: Anybody else had this happen to them?

Would somebody that already has the game check if teams in you squad (red/green/blue) can use their own formations this time? or if they still use the players/leaders default formation.

I would not mind having a peak at the c-130 if possible. i'd like to know if the ramp is animated and if you can walk around inside the cargohold. Same for the Osprey

The dutch interview also says that a 3d editor is not included in the initial release, however it does hint at the possibility that it will be added later in a patch.

Sorry if this has been asked before, but is there any word if the teams under the players command "red/green/blue/etc" can now have their own formations?

Well i think the problem with the OFP mod was that all the content was ripped from Halo CE. So remember kids create your own content, it might just be better than crappy pc rips. Not that microsoft will allow any mod on halo atm But i too have thought about creating some content for Arma from the halo universe allready started a warthog just to see how good i could get it to move in Arma.

Hehe, i do 6+ years of OFP/Arma has tought me that  I'v always been a huge fan of the BIS games but even i am getting ticked off by the flaws in this game. Flaws that have been present in OFP/Resistance in Arma an i know wil be in Arma 2! And yes Arma does have it's flaws true fans must admit that and i do, i just hope that BIS wil get these types of things fixed before they release Arma 2 and not waiste time on creating "realistic" environments when the core functions of the engine are still basically the same as 7 years ago.

Just got my copy yesterday, jezus what a mess i cant even get past the first mission in the royal flush campaign because my commander keeps getting hit. But i guess you cant fix a addon if the original game is still broken. Example: Me with an AK and an enemy 50 meters away with an AK, i go thru 1 clip and hit nothing he shoots me between the eyes with one bullet thru a cloud of grenade smoke. You got alot of AI work to do before Arma 2 is released guys. However Porto Rules
