I am going to be putting an ArmA Demo server up on our dedicated box this weekend if you guys are interested in using it/admining it while we in the UK wait for 505 games to release our version.
I'll probably stick it on co-op mode as that seems to be the most stable for the demo, and will post the IP details (and PM you the admin details) shortly.
I had a little play with the demo earlier today & it brought back fond memories of OFP!

lol I'm glad you can get it to play. I have an alien and it plays like crap on this maching. Choppy! Unless they can do something about it I doubt I'll be able to play this game much.

I bought myself a new GFX card for Xmas. Nvidia XFX Geforce 7950GT 512MB ram, etc etc.
It plays pretty well with everything turned on/up high.
My PC specs are Athlon64 3500+ & 1 gig ram - nothing too sexy.

Yeah K, I think what we really need is a new graphics card...
Newer cards with 512 MB of memory and Shader Model 3.0 should make a lot of difference in this game.

ok I'm kind of fuzzy on the whole "ha" thing Beav. Is that a British expression for "you got it"

Yep, it actually means "It's in the post".
Just another one of our quaint British quirks.

Good news, I got the damn game to work without artifacts! ;D Thanks to some guy at the BIS forums who posted something about forcing 24-bit Z-buffering and tripple buffering on ATI Catalyst. Phew, glad it's not necessarily my card that's screwed up. K, I'll post the framerates I'm getting later. As usual, I forgot to turn FRAPS on before starting the game.

Yeah, the framerates I'm getting never go over 22 FPS... I'll need a new graphics card at the very least.
My specs are: P4 3 GHz, 1.5 MB DDR400 RAM, ATI X800GT 256 MB. The settings I'm using are 800x600, anti-aliasing on normal, anisotropic filtering off, shadows disabled and textures and most of the other stuff on low.
Also, is it just me or is the sound terrible? I can't figure out where sounds are coming from most of the time, and things that are 500 meters away sometimes sound like they're just around the next corner. I don't have a dedicated sound card (mine is integrated to the motherboard), so if anyone else has integrated sound with the same problem, please let me know.

opflash has always had that problem for some reason.
