Bug in graphical subsystem occurs randomly (in multiplayer) cousing dramatic FPS drop. Only full game restart helps.
Closed, ResolvedPublic

Description

As playing a multiplayer game, after 5-15 minutes of playing suddenly something happens to the game and FPS drops to a very low value, something like 5-10 where before was 40+. What's interesting after the bug appears, all objects (even the most nearby) switch to the lowest LOD detalizaton. For example, all bushes begin to render by onle to polygons, as if they were far away. After the bug occured, there's no way to recover the situation, the FPS low even in main menu. The only solution is full restart of ARMA.

Steps To Reproduce

To play multiplayer game. Happens at random moment without any visible reason. I end up with this bug every game (unless the game didn't crash first).

Additional Information

My computer configuration: Core-i3 2310M, Intel Graphics HD3000, 3Gb RAM (due to 32-bit limit, the full amount is 8Gb).

Similar bug occured once not so far ago in some beta patch in Arma 2.
