infantry movement - floating / drifting
New, WishlistPublic

Description

but recently, i am experiencing drifting / floating when i move my character.
when i tap on W to move forward, it is ok.
but when i hold down W for more than a few seconds, and let go, my character either stops 5 seconds after i let go of the W key, or the character keeps continually moving forward until i pull up the inventory or hit many keys.
(i disable sticky keys on Win 7 control panel.)

i thought it was my xbox controller, so i unplgged it.
still same problem.
then i thought it was the profile, and i proceed to delete the arma 3 folders under my documents, and tried to run a clean defualt profile,
still the same problem.

any ideas? im finding arma3 un-playable because of this.

when i went to the bistudios forums for help,
someone suggested i lower my graphics settings.
i have a computer with win 7, i7-980x, two GTX580 in SLi.
i DO NOT have any problems with frame rates,
started thread

and some guy suugested to
"Try lowering shaders, SSAO, generally try anything until it goes away. Has been a problem for me in Arma since the first was released."

when installing Arma3 the installation sets my graphic settings to ultra.
during my previous attempts to uninstall-reinstall game, i set my settings to very high, and i have this problem.

when i set it to high, so far 2 hours of playing arma, i dont have the above problem.. will continue to monitor
