    [Solved] my arma issues

    I have seen your issues posted many times, and while I expect you could slightly improve your performance, your laptop is severely under-equipped to run Arma 3 with the amount of mods and players that we are dealing with. I would seriously consider buying a desktop with full power processor and...

    [SOLVED] Loadouts not loading (greyed-out)

    Once your files are verified, make sure you use the official server to build your base loadouts. I had a similar issue after some drivers went rotten on me, and had to use official server to build loadouts before I had luck doing it elsewhere... It does somewhat make me consider that new...

    Mouse Recommendations

    If speed, sensor quality, and FPS is your priority, your options realistically fall into one of these: Razer Deathadder Logitech G403 Zowie (any model with the 3366 sensor) All have the highest grade sensor on the market and when you get to the threshold of that making a difference, you'll...

    ugly graphics after huge explosions

    Truthfully, your computer is very underpowered for a game like Arma. I would consider building a standalone desktop if possible, there are few laptops that are equipped to run Arma, and all of them will cost more than a desktop would to build. You could easily find some used 5th gen intel...

    Yet another new guy

    Welcome. At the risk of sounding like a jerk, if you have a noisy background, make sure you have push to talk and try to make sure your background isn't noisy. Nobody wants to hear your kid crying, your T.V. blaring, or your dog barking when you are in an operation or training.

    Has anyone tried Threadripper ?

    Threadripper would work fine for gaming, but that processor is not geared toward high performance gaming. It's like trying to make a very heavy truck go very fast when that truck is made to pull a trailer at a decent speed, instead of buying a light weight car with a fast top speed knowing you...

    Bolinger Picture & Video Thread

    While sometimes on slow nights being the Phoenix taxi-driver is a bit dull, the operations where you get to strafe a squad with Lancer, pull off a hot extract when blue forces need to get home fast, or take out half a dozen pieces of armor with Warlord make it all worth it. Not to mention, we...

    Unable to load certain saved loadouts

    Made loadouts on official server, works like a charm. Thank you.

    Unable to load certain saved loadouts

    All loadouts have been re-created from scratch using only items in the official template. And surprisingly, my pilot loadouts are unaffected. The loadouts that give me problems are anything other than my one pilot loadout, just basic 506th infantry loadouts such as TL, rifleman, grenadier. I...

    Unable to load certain saved loadouts

    Gentlemen, I recently did a fresh install of my OS, and all things on my PC. Clean slate because A: It's a gaming rig so why not start fresh periodically and B: I had a bad graphics driver that was overlooked and fixed upon a re-install of everything. Since then I have re-downloaded Arma, and...

    New Gaming Monitor

    For the most part, you cannot go wrong with anything Asus when it comes to their higher end stuff. I'm rocking the ol' 24" VG248QE and love it. 144hz 1080p. You'll need a 1070 or better preferably to run 1440p at 100+ fps. Edit to add: Arma will still run at like 3 frames per day so choose...

    I WANT A PC!

    I would get intel for gaming over Ryzen. Ryzen is more geared toward content creation than raw high speed gaming.

    High speed Laptops at under 1200?

    If it is at all possible, avoid a laptop or any sort of pre-built machine. You can build a PC very easily in an hour or two depending on how well you follow instructions. With a desk top that you build, any upgrades you might want or problems you might face are much easier to diagnose and solve...

    Monitors and compatibility with 506

    GOD DAMNIT -- I TRIED TO QUOTE THIS AND I HIT MODIFY.  SORRY, WOC -- I don't remember what you wrote.  1LT Hammersmain :)No problem LT, basically just stated that arma will never take advantage of 144hz type monitors, nor will it run well outside of 1080p without a very beastly computer...

    Just installed the required mods and I'm getting an error message during testing

    I want to say I've seen that myself a time or two. Your mods will be tested in recruit training for the most part. Lots of things can cause a message like that to pop up in different servers, but from my limited experience if you can connect in, get your loadouts, and the game runs, everything...

    Flying rotary without a tenkey number pad? (radio)

    Just found a G13 for a hair over 50 dollars. Better value than a numpad due to the fact that I can use it for other games as well. Thank you all for the responses.

    Flying rotary without a tenkey number pad? (radio)

    The separate numpad is a fantastic idea, saves me some money too. Before I order one, how do you like the Logitech G13, Mr. Rollins?

    Flying rotary without a tenkey number pad? (radio)

    Thanks for the responses guys, I am sure that this will come up in flight school. If I need to order another keyboard prime will have it to me in a day or two so I'll wait until the instructors let me know the route to go.
