PANiC

really liked the mission, sorry my comms was pretty bad tonight. shafted by those freekin machine gun nests again.

what resolution is your screen?

hmpf more than one failed hdd? sounds v odd. no spare hdd to bang your OS on? bad luck dood

played Dai's mission again tonight a couple of times. i managed to trash the mission before the first objective. Luggage got us all the way to the end

you had no ret spread on your OGR guns? even lying prone with any of the assault rifles your bullet would not hit dead centre of the screen because the ret doen't fully close, god knows where your second shot is going to go, up down left or right of target? . recoil in ARMA is a lot reasier to predict than random ret spread IMHO . not to mention the sniper scopes on OGR, but in ARMA you can pretty much run and gun with the sniper and is easy to use in CQB/point blank.

only problem i have with grass is that i have to roll around the floor like an idiot for a few minutes to flatten it down so i can see anything through my scope have to play a bit more cautiously, but didn't have any more problems than usual apart from the rest of the team leaving me on my own a couple of times haha. having said that i was using the DMR scope, maybe ppl with less zoom had bigger issues. /edit - given the choice, i would probably turn grass off.

looks nice. also looks like too many freekin steep hills /offtopic, ideal location for me would be one that incorporated all the original Gost recon maps. if the guns in ARMA2 were more inaccurate then it could be a lot like OGR.

haha fraps sound recording option is not great 1 - sound - everything except my microphone 2 - sound - just my microphone 3 - no sound

best night of arma2 yet we got totally suprised by the initial convoy, it pretty much turned up before we kitted up. the first attack when it was still dark was pretty damn sweet. thought the chopper guys did a really good job, was probably quicker than a revive re the comms issue Dai, it's amost as if it would be better if everyone was in one channel, then everyo0ne wouldn't talk over the commander (that we cant hear), and noone would talk crap all the time managed to get fraps on while waiting in the c130

happy birthday bud

i put on fraps the other day and i was on 12 fps i'm happy with my framerate untili turn that damn fraps on haha looks like you are right abuot the CPU, it was worth checking tho

20 ppl on comms and 30 ppl in the server is chaos IMHO

i'll think you would get more from a gfx card. ati 5xxx series are due this month, so price drops and bargains ahoy be wary about upgrading your cpu, newer cpus are 45nm and yours is a 65nm, i suggest that the new 45nm chips will not work in your motherboard! certainly the 65nm chips dont work with the 45nm motherboards (i know i tried it).

i can check 'clockers members market if you have anything specific in mind hoot? example someone selling a 5 week old 4870 1GB: http://www.overclockers.co.uk/showproduct...._source=froogle for £98 delivered, and two sold for £90 each recently. Sapphire HD 4870 512MB just sold for £68 /edit, actually, this is a great buy this week only: http://overclockers.co.uk/showproduct.php?prodid=GX-120-XF

have a good one dood

definately interested, DOM is just chaos

seems to be getting pretty good, i thought the commanders did a nice job last night. i reckon more people need to read this thread though to see what this is about. still a lot of Rambos and people asking "what are we waiting for" inbetween towns when the next mission is being planned, i guess ppl are turning up and not realising that it's run differently on a friday. also there is a lot of people who want to do this or that but not many takers for squad learder/overall command when asked. i took "PARTY TEAM" Bravo for one town and it was pretty good, only fired 2 stinger rockets the whole mission. that mission worked out well for us as Alpha and Charlie were getting engaged we were able to go straight into the town pretty much unseen. apologies if anyone thinks they are not listened to and their suggestions ignored, the squad leader has the command speaking at the same time, and although suggestions are passed on, command has the final say. Bravo captured an enemy tank, can we just confirm if this is allowed or not for next week please?

seems to be a few problems with the markers going missing, i know you guys noticed because the game was almost paused to try and sort this out. i find it hard to believe that the markers dissapear on their own. sorry for going off topic a bit btw. i think the markers are invaluable especially in the Tactical nights, but i think the system is difficult to use especially quickly. it takes a short while to make a line of dots and worse if you want to use a different colour, and then you realse you were in the wrong channel. worse part is that anyone can delete every marker. i know Bravo team last night were marking covre, targets and positions all over the zone which was incredibly useful, as long as they are for bravo only (impossible to tell unless you ask everyone), but then sometimes everyone needs to know a location like factory or d30 etc. should only the commander make markers visible for everyone? should we mark all targets? delete your marker when target is destroyed? different targets/ojectives/waypoints have different shapes and colours? each squad allocated a specific colour for their LZ and waypoints? (could be easier to visualise an attack on the map rather than all the markers being black). commander clears all the markers at objective completion? only thing i do consistently is to mark ammo drops with an orange X, because ammo drops DO NOT show on the map, and after you have dropped something else, you are probably the only person who knows where that ammo crate is located. if the ammo box is not collected by an HQ or chopper the i think that marker should stay there - they are usually deleted, but the ammo box stays there.

woop

see any nice EVO's there Zeno??

is the 1.09 an update? just looking for what has cahnged/been fixed

changelog? sry i dont know where to find the infos

i heard Alpha team called in a welcoming party tank to our insertion

editited, thanks and apologies MH6

i dont think the case temp has such a big effect on the GPU, mainly because it could be pushing towards 100C when under load (depending on specific card of course). d/l a temp monitoring app and see how hot it's getting, and clean up the fan generally i find that if the gfx card is overheating the comp will just crash to desktop or shutdown. with messed up colours i find it's usually the gfx memory dying.
