I all ways asign my look to me side button on mouse thats all thats needed tbh

they should add what ace did where you could change the amplification

Im not saying they are but I am interpreting the last statement from Max Power as that I mean lets be hinest he closed the thread with that statment.

Well this thread has just been closed.

but whats intersting is max power closed it with this statment

"Sounds like the issue is as solved as it's going to be. In the future, please search before opening new threads."

He specifically used the word Issue and fixed so should we read this as

The issue is as fixed as its going to get?.

Hey all any more news on this.

I am getting worried.
I love arma since OFP days and BIS are fantastic but I hope they are able to fix the problem we are all having with arma 3 not using our hardware as it should.

my system is

Q6700
ATI 4890
4gb ram etc etc
Ok not the best system in the world but looking at the core usage and GPU usage its only using core one 70% and the others dont sweat and stay at 30-40% and me GPU just sits there at 50% most of the time.

Please BIS after BETA please feed us more info on what you will do to fix this this is not a rant its a concerned fan.

Hey mewle

I dont think it is as some people have created a RAM drive and its still under perfroming.
I am not saying there gaming experiance has not improved because like you say ARMA does stream a lot of DATA so yeah it will help I am sure.

But They have had no real FPS improvement just smoother game play

4GB of ram is enough its not the ram its the engine I have 4gb of ram and if my hardwaye was being used right by the engine I would see a great FPS increase but till then we may as well have a pentium 1 133mhz CPU cus its gonna make no diff what we have ARMA3 just aint making use of our hardware

just tested latest build and in heli showcase mission I was displaying 0% GPU usage ?

you lot will laugh but ihave dual screens and on screen two i have my monitoring software.

now when i start the game it uses ell over 80-90% of my cpu.

so starting the game uses more cpu horse power than actually running the game.

im not joking test it start the game and watch cpu usage go well over 90%

Playing the first showcase mission

Ok when moving up to the town

CPU use no more than 50%
GPU use 90%

As soon as I get into the town the FPS goes terrible but the weird thing is GPU use goes down to like 2D levels

As said befor it seems the more demanding the scene is the less it uses resources.

use in town
CPU use 50%
GPU use 20-30%

I mean wtf it has to be a CPU bottle neck becuase the FPS decreases so does GPU useage its because ARMA dont make use of cores it really does not.

This needs to be fixed and I hope they can :)

Getting a bit worried here this was an issue in ARMA2 and could not be fixed.

I do hope this aint the case for ARMA3 if so thats bad news.

I dont have a top spec PC but thats not the point the point is I checked my CPU and GPU usage and its not all being used yet low FPS is :(

This was an issue in ARMA2 as well.

But yeah this happens I have seen it in ARMA3 now :(

Yep stupidly small cant read it at all have to get close to screen to see any thing

Yep had this one to.

I did not wreck the car though I just took a corner to fast rolled got out and had animation loop
