Arma 2 Low Fps
Hi guys:I came here to see if I'm not the only one having lows FPS no matter what I tried.If I set the game maxed out the GPU's don't get use more than a 40%. I really like this game but I dont like to play it @ 25 +- 30 FPS.I use the 310.70whql drivers. Just gotta tweak it ALOT if you want to play in max seetingshes right this game is very cpu dependant one of the few games that need alot of cpu powermy buddy was playing this and dayz on max settings on a low end laptopi dont remeber what he did but it looked greeat still and he did not have to go down to meduim low settings.grab an onboard fps tracker and screw with the settings alot until you find it playable.or if you dont care about graphics just turn her down to meduim or low its a great game imo and the dayz mod is well worth playing even in lowest settings possible haha. This game just doesn't run right no matter what. I run the game with 1 GPU, as dual GPU's doesnt really yield better performance and also causes micro stutter.For me to get a solid 60 fps using Vsync running off 1 card I run it in 720p, AA low, Post processing low, Visibility between 5000-6000 and everything else on max. 1080p is good for 40+ fps in this setting.I've was under the impression I was CPU bound but since you're getting similar results, I'm pretty sure the programming might leave a bit to be desired.

Arma 2 and operation arrowhead are demanding, but they scale well with better hardware. I have high settings and i usually have 50-60 fps.as mentioned be sure to get arma 2 1.07 patch or latest beta patch for arrowhead.consider how much the arma engine does compared to other games. Arma 2 has vast maps, highly detailed units, vegetation and buildings. In arrowhead all building also have modeled interior. Also arma 2 can do some pretty advanced scripting and handle ai code for thousands of units (thousands will probably make any pc explode though ).i think the engine is very well optimized. Arrowhead seems even better and object and units are more detailed than in arma 2. Optimizing Arma 2 settings for my rig is part black magic, part sacrifice.

I usually changes setting in-game depending on need. Getting near a city is murder on your frame rate which sucks because the cities are nicely done.
It'll be nice to slap in a SSD but I'm waiting for prices fall a bit. Like others have said you should peruse the BIS forums and Armaholic forums.Operation Arrowhead however runs WAAAY better for me, I can crank everything and keep a view distance of 2400-3000 @ 1920x1080.
It helps not having all those trees to render as the theater of operations is a knock-off of Afghanistan. Now.if i could just figure out how to control large unit groupings without mucking everything up. Using 1.52 should be OK, using the beta would need the new shortcut to properly load the data though you only need those specific lines. (The -Mod Expansion/Beta lines.)(1.52 is also what the beta calls itself but it needs the full 1.52 patch first as it contains much more than what the beta fixes as the beta relies on it.)Also if you only have ArmA2 then 1.52 shouldn't have worked at all since it's for OA.(Certain mods can also give that shader error, noblur for example if you were using it as there's no OA specific version out yet, there is a 1.07 version however for ArmA2.).
