Einfach fein nach Installation mal die arma2oa.cfg und die profile Datei neu erstellen lassen und die Festplatte defragmentieren (mit SmartDefrag oder ähnlichem), dann klappt das bestimmt.

Generell an alle die das Spiel nicht auf einer SSD haben sondern auf einer normalen Festplatte, nachdem man den Patch installiert hat, Partition mit dem Spiel drauf defraggen (wie o.a. mit SmartDefrag oder ähnlichen Tools).

Ok kann ich machen.

Aber mit welchen Hintergrund? Nur interesse halber.

Die Delta Patches defragmentieren das ArmA 2 Verzeichnis sehr stark, daher...
Ist seit dem ersten ArmA 2 Patch der Fall.

Ah ok danke.

[burns]

Erwarte dir aber nicht zuviel davon .. ich bin seit 1.60 quasi nur noch am defraggen in der Hoffnung es brächte was, aber Pustkuchen

[AHTNTEPPOP]

Och burns, Tüte Trost für dich!

[TeilX]

IS ja auch immer so eine Allheilmittel Antwort in anderen Foren wenn es mal ruckelt. Hab da auch noch nie was mitbekommen duch defrag . Ausser sie is mal wieder brechend Voll wie gerade.

[Xeno]

Beide armed-assault.de Mirror sind jetzt auch auf der arma2.com Download Seite ...

Patch 1.62 armed-assault.de Mirror

Edith: Für die die den 1.61 und 1.62 RC noch nicht benutzt haben, die Farben des Chats im MP sehen jetzt a bisserl anders aus, net wundern

Darauf nochmal zurückzukommen, bzw. es überhaupt anzusprechen:

Was zum Geier macht das erforderlich?
Wer hält BI davon ab, bestehende Konfigurationsdateien durch ihr ArmA2OARFTsonstwas Programm auf evtl. durch einen Patch fehlerhaft oder redundant gewordene Einstellungen zu checken?

Es nervt einfach, nach jedem Patch eine Stunde lang die Optionen auf einen Stand zurückzubringen der einem zusagt. Und das passiert ja nun auch nicht unoft!

Zumal wohl kein einziger casual Player auf der Welt die Prozedur a) versteht, oder b) erahnt, oder c) über sich ergehen lassen möchte/wird.


Wenn ihr motzen wollt, hängt euch am Casual Player Punkt auf, meine Stunde wurde bereits investiert und durch Bier wettgemacht

[INNOCENT&CLUELESS]

Und wo ist mein extra DLC für RAC ARC CRA?......die böhmischen Horden?

Geil! Patch installiert...

blabla dieser Patch verbessert ihr Spiel...

dann starten wollen:

ArmA 2 OA funktioniert nicht mehr...


DANKE BIS! Und bestimmt bin ich ganz allein dran Schuld dass es nicht geht.

Edit: Es funktioniert wenn man macht was als Teufelszeug verschrien: Mit letztem 1.62 beta starten! Irre diese Bitschubser!

Jetzt ist die Frage: was haben die letzten 1.62 betas wo hingeschmiert?

[MrCharles]

Schau mal, ob du noch die ACRE dsound.dll drin hast.
