  1. There shouldn't be -mod in front of it. The way I originally had it was for the target line through shortcut icons.
  2. Start and type in Nvidia or it could (for me) always is in the task tray. Next to the time on the bottom right corner of the monitor.

    Trying toggling it. If it is set to "Mouse Button 5" then double click "Mouse Button 5" in game and it should toggle off.

    Wait for host problem!

    Make sure you are running the correct version of BattleEye which you can find here: http://www.battleye.com/download.html Also keeping ArmA 2 updated helps quite a bit! You can update it here http://www.arma2.com/beta-patch.php (newest update is at the top in the green) Keep in mind that some servers haven't/don't update to the latest beta patch right away. So servers may be limited to some degree! Hope this helps! If not post in here again and we will see what we can do to get the problem resolved!
  5. What is your Antialiasing at? Antialiasing smooth'es out edges (and should get rid of the "box" textures) What did you set your Anisotropic filtering to?
  6. I am also pretty positive that you aren't "supposed" to install old patches over new ones. I could be wrong though. Might have to re-install AramA 2/DayZ and make sure you patch correctly Have you tried updating BattleEye? http://www.battleye.com/download.html ArmA 2 Beta Patches http://www.arma2.com/beta-patch.php
  7. Promoting a tad but it worked for me. While I use NVIDIA you should find other helpful information with tweaking in there. http://dayzmod.com/f...h-out-the-game/
  8. Hi! So over the past few days I have been searching around looking how to get the best performance out of ArmA 2 and DayZ. So lets begin! (Just want to note that this worked for me with the specs that I have, results may vary depending on hardware) My computer consists of the following specs: AMD Phenom II X4 955 Black Edition Deneb 3.2GHz GTX 560Ti CORSAIR Vengeance 8GB 1TB HDD First in your NVIDIA Control Panel (Not sure how AMD works, I would assume something similar), go to "Manage 3D Settings" then find ArmA 2: Operation Arrowhead in the drop down menu of games. Set the following settings: Ambient Occlusion - Off Anisotropic Filtering - Application controlled AntiAliasing Gamma Correction - On AntiAliasing Mode - Application controlled AntiAliasing Setting - Application controlled AntiAliasing Transparency - Off Maximum Pre-Rendered Frames - 0 Multi-Display/GPU Accelaration - Single Display Performance Mode Power Management Mode - Prefer Maximum Performance Texture Filtering Sample Optimization - On Texture Filtering Negative LOD Bias - Allow Texture Filtering Quality - High Performance Texture Filtering Trilinear Optimization - On Threaded Optimization - Auto Triple Buffering - Off Vertical Sync - Off Make sure you hit apply to save Then in Documents\ArmA 2 find the ArmA2AO file. Open (will probably need to right click open as "notepad" it and change the following to: GPU_MaxFramesAhead=1; (Mouse Smoothing - off) GPU_DetectedFramesAhead=1; AToC=6; PPAA=1; PPAA_Level=1; My in game settings are as follows (Yours may differ in terms of resolution); (Note: Interface Size is only set to "Very Large" to get a better screenshot) Video Memory MUST be set to "Default" to make use of ALL of your video memory Postprocess Effects I personally have found by disabling this gives me an increase to FPS and gets rid of the blur in the game (As well as smoothing out the experience) Objects Details by lowering this to "Normal" or even better "Low" you will(should) see a significant increase in FPS and smoothness! The only thing I have noticed this effects is the grass, but by changing AToC, PPAA, AND PPAA_Level which was stated above the picture will still make it look nice! Vsync making sure this is disabled is important! This will make it so the game does not cap the FPS to the screens refresh rate While I play with Texture Detail and Terrain Detail at very high, you can bump it down to High (putting some settings to low or very low can actually give your worse performance I personally like Shadow Detail at high So I hope some of this helps you out because I know it was a pain in the ass for me to get things going how I wanted them. But of me doing exactly what I posted throughout this post I saw awesome FPS gains and overall smoothness to my game. Even though in major cities I personally still get around 30 FPS when I am outside of the major cities I am easily getting 45+FPS. This may not be much in your eyes but it made playing the game that much more enjoyable for myself! RAMDisk is a way to create a virtual drive on your memory. Since DayZ is only around 400MB and below you will actually be sacrificing very little RAM to get awesome speeds by loading DayZ through the virtual drive! While I did not come up with this idea first this guy did! Check out his video guide! While you are there be sure to check out his channel for awesome DayZ videos as well! A thank you always is nice too! Thank you and below are the links and videos I have obtained all my information from over the course of tweaking and playing around with things!
