jarf (DayZ) 0 Posted August 2, 2012 Hi I just bought Arma 2 CO today to play Dayz. Dayz is working fine and I can join servers. I am wondering though how to make it windowed mode. I tried going into six launcher and putting additional startup parameters like -window -height 1366 -width 768 but that didn't work. Also how can I improve my FPS? It seems to get a bit low at times and I have a decent PC. My specs are AMD Phenom II x4 965 3.4ghz quad, GIGABYTE Radeon 6850 1gb, and i have 8gb of ram 1666 speed. Any help would be appreciated. Thanks a bunch! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
wnxcid 1 Posted August 2, 2012 I really dont recomend windowed mod in day z due to the high attention you have to spend from getting yourself killed, but. You can enable windowed mode in settings. to get to this:1) Start six lanuncher2) dont select a server (just hit play)3) Arma 2 will be up (go to settings)4) windowed mode will be an option 5) select the server you want from the Multiplayer Tab I recommend Advanced system care (free program) to help speed up/ clean your computer of unnecessarily files/ data. it also has a "Boost" feature which shuts down tasks that are not needed while you play the game, this of course needs to be setup. also i recomnd running a defrag on your hard drive, that may increase your frames.

patrickisparriott@gmail.com 0 Posted August 2, 2012 there are a few settings you can also disable or lower to make a significant boost I think they are aotcc and ppoa or something like that. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
