Title: ArmA 1 problem
Post by: Rytuklis on 06 May 2012, 10:40:35
Hello,

I have windows 7 and 4GB of RAM,
AMD Radeon 6850 1GB Video card,
3.4 GHZ Intel Celeron Core i5

Arma II runs just fine, but ArmA I - when launching, graphics are all messed up, textures as well,

It looks like this "(http://img35.imageshack.us/img35/7636/armabug.jpg)"

Any ideas?  :dunno:

Are you using the 1.18 version?
Seem to remember that prior version don't like Win7 much, not sure though..

If you are then the next culprit is most likely your GPU drivers.  :dunno:

I do recall having this exact same issue. I resolved it by installing the latest patch (which I think is 1.18) and used compatibility settings (windows xp).

The 1.18 patch does seem to fix the problem, so yes I would download it  :). I also had mine set to xp compatibility settings to see if that had any impact on gameplay (can't remember if it did or didn't to be honest lol).


Hope this helps
