wouldnt buy (yet).

I own ArmA for a couple of weeks now, but it is a low quality product. Nothing works properly and it still has the same mistakes as ArmA 1.

Maybe it will be good for the SP / coop fraktion, as soon as they fix all bugs, but if you are into PvP, then it just sucks.

Haha I have put a fair few hours on ArmA (using my TrIR4, I wish ALL FPS had that) and I have to say... I didn't even know there was a PvP mode! LOL learn something everyday... I did the SP campaign and big style co-op...

I have it pre-ordered, it'll get here to NZ at some point, hopefully the same time as a few patches ;)

Join the club!

As above, try editing the config file to set a more boring resolution (ie not TH2G). These D3D errors were introduced big time in the latest patch. This will be a great game, some day.

I did the steam demo install. I'm not seeing a cfg file in the install directory though. Anyone have the specific name of the file I need to edit?

Ok... I've got the Steam demo running.... but the dialogue boxes, subtitles, comm menu, and weapon status are on the extreme sides of my left and right monitor.

Is there a way to make the HUD elements appear on the center screen? I've set 3840x1024 and aspect ration to Triplehead.... but no dice.

Thanks!

i patched up to 1.02

i have matrox triplehead 2 go.
dosent work,
i get this error, unable to create graphical engine error when attempting 4320x900 resolution

i had to go back to the preivous powerdesk driver, and last years nvidia drive to play 4320x900, but i would get the errors if i change the defualt video settings...

also the new nvidia driver causes box-y looking objects...being that i have 8Gigs of Ram running....
