Don't think he's released it. Only decent ones I've used are the FA-18 Super Hornet and the AC-130X.

It also happens on std Wasteland maps - I think. Will check

Sounds like a mission problem to me. Check on TS with people who are playing it, I bet they will be getting the stutter at the exact same time.

BaDBoY_uK · 17 Oct 2013 at 13:10

Yeah, same on Wasteland normal. I might try a RAM disk just to be sure

BaDBoY_uK · 17 Oct 2013 at 13:24

Tested SSD and it peaks at 550 R/W - strange

51meg update on dev build and I made a test mission with heavy rain and all units killing each other

LOGISTICS
If you have frequently used devbranch and you experience lag when opening interface menus (such as pressing Esc to open the pause menu taking several full seconds, and the game otherwise running fine) - this may be due to your profile data storage being huge (hundreds of megabytes). That, in turn, may have been caused by redundant diagnostics data having been stored while using devbranch. The current solution is to create a new profile, but obviously be careful about losing your settings and progress (i.e. confirm you actually experience the issue described before doing this)!

Practising domination on TF1778 server

Had enough of trying to fix the stutter on MP maps. Uninstalled

Running decent for me after the few updates, can even use 150% scaling :eek:

You ever try a private server? Almost every public server I've played on has been crap.

Private svr is fine. Runs at 100fps with GPU usage around 85%. MP servers are awful. Domination, Wasteland, King of Hill...

Did you buy a new card badboy?

Try the OCB server playing Patrol Ops 3... Speak to Melbo, he has joined the server and says it is bang on.

Thanks guys - turns out that ESET NOD32 was causing the problems on ARMA3. Not sure why. Currently investigating. I loaded ARMA3 with ESET running = stutter. While still in game and on a svr, uninstalled ESET and the problem went away instantly. Weird or what!!! Now I can play any server - including KOH - with no problems

I just need a new AV...

ColdAsIce · 19 Oct 2013 at 09:33

Avast free version has never done me wrong

MarkeR · 19 Oct 2013 at 12:33

Microsoft security thingy for me, not let me down yet...

Nice info. I am also running NOD32 and it is one thing i didn't try yet. Was kinda at the same frustration level you were at with the game. If stopping my AV sorts it as well i will virtually kiss you (No gay)

Been considering changing to MSE for a while now anyway because i use it on systems i repair for other people and so far its been fantastic.

Xcept1 · 19 Oct 2013 at 14:58

Patrol Ops tomorrow anyone?

MarkeR · 19 Oct 2013 at 15:54

I'm in Melbo, roughly around 8pm I'll be available..

After some more digging you can either

1. Disable ESET and also

2. Disable HIPS (look inside ESET and go to "Setup") - click into it and disable memory scanning

Play around and see what works for you

Glad it may have helped someone else

BaDBoY_uK · 19 Oct 2013 at 16:03

P.S. What is Patrol Ops?

MarkeR · 19 Oct 2013 at 17:55

You have to do loads of different tasks, for example deliver supplies, clear minefields, hold out at camps and destroy enemy fortifications etc..

Great working as a team..

thingemajib · 19 Oct 2013 at 17:58
