5-10 FPS on lowest settings.

Recommended Posts

At the start, when I first bought Arma 2 and installed DayZ, I got 25 FPS on the highest graphics. Now, Im lucky if I get 12 on the lowest, even outside cities. I dont see why this should be happening, Ive followed and combined multiple optimization guides and my computer is more than enough for DayZ, according to other specs Ive seen.

AMD FX 6100 3.3 GHz Six-Core

12GB DDR3 RAM

2TB SATA HDD

ATI Radeon 6670 PCI-E 2GB

Windows 7 Home Premium 64-Bit

Thanks in advance.

Edit: Now Im getting 9 FPS at the start menu and its totally frozen and not responding.

How many servers have you tried? Some just give really poor performance.

I've lost access to Arrowhead now, start menu freezes the whole computer. It wont even start. Arma II starts up fine.

PS: I just bought this computer 2 weeks ago/

Ah, that's not good, lol...

My machine's not THAT much better than yours and I get 200 FPS on the menu and 30-80 in game on a mix of high and very high settings.

Is it only ARMA that you're having problems with or all games?

Just Operation Arrowhead. Arma 2 is fantastic on very high settings.

I feel like something went wrong in trying to optimize DayZ.

I edited the Ini files in My Documents, if that helps, and I used RAMdisk.

That's strange...

Maybe try verifying your ARMA II: OA game cache in Steam and, if that doesn't work, reinstalling? :S

Nice.

As for joining servers - download DayZ Commander and update to the latest ARMA II beta patch. You can then use DayZ Commander to make sure you're joining a server running the same beta version as you.

When you are updated to lates betapatch you still can join servers that are running older betapatch, at least most of the time.

Personally I always install the newest version.

Some servers bugger up your client and make your game look like a slideshow.

US 77 has been good to me, try it and see if it helps.
