Arma will not credit an indirect kill. He did not "hit" someone with the grenade, the grenade exploded near them and killed people. Shooting people is the only way to get kill credit.

Had a normal session for a bout an hour, then the fps suddenly cut in half. Weather was not changing, somewhat overcast. I was far NW on map. Was on 1601 + 93160, server was LEM running beta also. Others complained of low fps on entering, while my fps was normal. AMD Phenom II 955 @ 3.9 ATI HD 5850 4GB 1800 Intel ssd

They are not currently allowed.

+1 The only games I got into with normal FPS had been recently restarted.

AMd proc has no issues if game is running properly. Issue comes and goes with both brands. Try a freshly restarted server if you get low fps on joining.

NO.

Best way around the fps drop is to join a server that is freshly restarted. Have a nice dayz

launch arma2oa as oa, then check the arma2 is loaded in the expansions menu.

delete all the files you move previously. the a2free addons folder goes in a2oa root folder.

it is better to put the a2free addons folder in the a2ao root dir. use this to set up a shortcut to launch the mod : http://dayzmod.com/forum/showthread.php?tid=4722&pid=44931#pid44931 you may be stuck with the a2free stuff at main menu, but shouldn't effect in game menus.

with med settings at that res you will need more video card memory. at low settings you will need a very fast cpu. at high settings you will need a much faster vid card. putting the game on a velociraptor hdd or ssd will improve things all around. arma is brutal on specs.

run arma2 first, to the menu, then quit. run arma2oa, without combined ops, to the menu, quit. now you can add the mod line when you run, just use OA, not the CO option. at main menu, open expansions, make sure arma2 and pmc are checked. restart game if nesesary and try to hop in a server. I personaly use this method: http://dayzmod.com/forum/showthread.php?tid=4722&pid=44931#pid44931

The only way I can get my steam version to run properly is to: 1) copy the addons folder from "arma2" to "arma2 operation arrowhead" folder. 2) add a non-steam game to steam, that launches Arma2OA.exe. 3) edit properties of this shortcut, add -mod=CA;@DayZ (makesure toput a space infront of -) 4) give it a unique name and save it. This should run the game with a2 and dayz loaded properly, and the steam overlays work fine in game. There are several ways to run a mod in arma, so you may have to try a few.

Before engaging ppl, hit p an make sure no one on the list, including you, has desync or very high ping. This situation is absolutely desync of one of the clients.

When selecting a server from the list, make sure the player list appears in the lower box.

Without knowing the error msg, it could be many things.

Make sure your oa is patched to 1.60 by running oa without mods. Exit out. Patch if required. Copy the addons folder from arma2 into the oa install dir. Add non-steam game in steam library. Point it to the arma2oa.exe. Edit the shortcut target to contain -mod=CA;@DayZ. Also, you can just create shortcut on the arma2oa.exe and use that to launch without steam.

Did you put the mods files in an addons folder under the dayz folder?

What is the game version number. Its shown on screen while the main menu is up. Needs to be 1.60 at minimum.

Run the game with no mods. Just have to see the menu. Exit. Then install patch 1.60.

Go to video options, then advanced. Interface size should be small or very small to shrink everything into proportion.

Have you tried -malloc=tbb3malloc_bi? The most recent beta definently leaks memory.

Hit V instead of C at the top of the tower at green mountain. Derp.
