You might also check on Freetrack. Uses IR like TrackIR but it's a DIY solution = free. Works pretty well, even for infantry (if you play with the config curves and sensitivity and deadzone). Being DIY it means the quality will depend a lot on your webcam quality and ability to attach/solder LEDs to your headset/cap, though. I have tried FaceTrackNoIR a good while back, didn't work for me so much (obviously it needs good lighting and clean background), but heard they have made a good progress as well. All those solutions are great, even for infantry play, if only for being able to easily look behind you.

Also, OP, you use an automatic updater to update to the latest version, and then you complain that it updated you to the latest version and you can't play on the servers that didn't update yet? *facepalm*

Seems more like you have a writing (or social) impairment. Please, do look up what concepts like "punctuation", "sentence", "not being a dumbshit" mean, before being a dumbshit (your exact words) to others. If you really wanted some support or suggest something to makers of SixLauncher, you would have probably a better chance using search functions here in the forums, replying to the official stickied SixLauncher thread with a polite question / suggestion and not spamming the forums with yet another worthless thread .

Valid point. I was pointing out a free way to try out if ArmaII works on OP's rig, if he doesn't have a legit Win disk yet. So far it has caused no issues for me (I use it myself), but I installed it just and only for ArmaII, I don't need Windows for anything else - though it works for me, there might be many issues I am unaware of. How about the newer Release Preview?

Are most of you people just completely stupid? Zombie ate your brains? The OP asked about a simple question, why do you feel you need to spam the thread with pointless crap? Ah the internetz typical LOL crowd...Not surprised, with the huge amount of people these forums have, they just follow the typical Gaussian distribution for intelligence (heavily biased to the left) ;-) Anyway, back to the OP's question. You need Bootcamp. Wine is a no-go. Although you can get ArmaII to run under Wine after some hacking, the DirectX implementation in Wine will give you random problems, and will run slower. 4850 is not so much powerful GFX card for ArmaII, with only 512MB in the iMac, but it should be playable if you lower your settings. There were plenty of people playing ArmaII on PCs with 4850 cards when they were the higher end few years ago, and it was actually the recommended card in the official specs back then (not meaning it could run ArmaII on very high, though :) Your iMac's CPU is plenty powerful for it (i5 quad, right?) (unless you have big singleplayer missions with hundreds of AI, but there struggles everything), but you will be limited by GFX a bit. With your 27" higher resolution, you might have to turn resolution down and use lower settings. Turn off antialiasing in game, turn off AToC in Arma2OA .cfg, use SMAA on low instead for antialiasing. Turn PostProcess to lowest or disabled. Look up other settings optimisation here, me and few others contributed to a pretty good Arma II settings optimisation thread in the Troubleshooting section: http://dayzmod.com/forum/showthread.php?tid=1355 Lower your view distance, you don't need anything over 2000 for DayZ, maybe even less (you need more for flying in regular ArmaII). PP, AA and Shadows are the biggest GFX eater in Arma. Viewdistance is the biggest GFX AND CPU eater in Arma. And finaly, you can instal Windows 8 Preview on Bootcamp easily (and for free), get latest Catalyst drivers for it, download and install ArmaII Free before you buy the full game to give you some overview of how it will run. All for free (although ArmaII Free is obviously with low res textures, and doesn't support any modding, and is not optimised as well as full ArmaII CO)

I WUB PUBS, maybe that's why this forum is such a mess when one tries to either find or talk something constructive? Because the "comfort" zone is removed so much. Perhaps it's nice to have a gritty forum for a gritty game, but it seems to me most people posting such things are just too much into their characters. Yeah, all for total immersion and all, but if you start to mistake your ingame character for yourself on an internet forum, there is something wrong with you. Also, please do not make this into discussion on Free speech vs slur (quote:"Most of the players come form countries where there is Free speech"). This is a wholly different discourse, that you were connecting together.

I don't think it's funny. Just because a bunch of really insecure people (and there must be lots on these forums from some of the posts I read) try to boost their ego by trying to be their own twisted perception of "macho" and all, doesn't make it funny. You know, there are internet forums where people can and do behave like normal people...

So according to your rationalization, that "It's a game", racial slurs would be ok? Hatespeech would be ok? Because "it's in the character of the game"? Bullshit. That's just stupid, hateful and especially immature talk.

Re: changelog on first place and updated one in the middle of the thread, you can click Rocket's name anywhere he posted, and SEARCH for all his posts easily. Best to keep up to date with development.

I had a similar experience of a glitch, first time connecting to a server after few days off, running latest beta (91360 is it?), it was overcast night. For like twenty seconds the sky kept flashing brighter and darker, quite quickly - at least once per second, in consistent rhythm. After some time it stopped. ATI 6870, A2OA 91360, EU9 server. Haven't been injured at the time, happened instantly after connecting (well, after I got into the game so I could play). So I do think it is a bug / glitch.

May I remind you, o mighty lectioner on English, that this is an international forum. *facepalm* If you are so keen on proper English, perhaps editing the title of your suggestion from something so ambiguous as "Kamenka" into something a bit more understandable like "Change default respawn location" would make more sense to others. Back to your suggestion - I still do not understand it completely, because your text allows for different interpretations. Are you saying that all the random respawn locations that existed before were changed to one only at Kamenka? Did you die on every 7 of those servers and respawned at Kamenka? Then it's a bug and falls into Bug Reports. Or did you disconnect, tried a different server, travelled without dying, and found yourself back at Kamenka after reconnecting again? Then it's a bug again. Perhaps you should give the threads I linked a reading. They mentioned two things: locations being reset (happened to me as well) due to corrupted database and locations not saving, due to issues with servers probably not being up to date to latest Hive version. As far as I know, the default respawn location is NOT ONLY at Kamenka. There are several all along the coast.

Of course you are entitled to your opinion. Everybody has one...there is even a famous quote long those lines' date=' you know? But perhaps you haven't understood: They are not undead. They are living as much as you are. I don't see predators trying to climb ladders to get to their prey as "silly"

It's a bug, brought by a bad server corrupting the database, IIRC. See hive 0.9.1 posts. Player's locations got lost somewhere during the chaos. I am not sure if it has been fixed completely, but last night it saved my new position correctly. Please continue discussion in appropriate troubleshooting topic.
