Thanks for the info, my copy will be here in some few days, so i think ill skip patch 1.02 till they fix the THG issue you described.

Running the demo here, you can select 5040x1050 in the game menu, but aspect ratio seems to be limited to 12:3 ? :?:

I installed the demo from Steam but its giving me a DX9 graphics error as soon as it tries to load up.

Reluctant to buy the full game incase it suffers the same fate

Edit the cfg file to launch the game at 3840x1024, then you can adjust later in the game menu to 5040x1050.

Well I just updated my GFX drivers and its launching now, just having a bit of trouble getting my desktop back to 5040.

Thanks for the tip Thales100, i will try that once my desktop is working correctly.

I gotta say I only played a few minutes of the demo to check it worked and I really love it!

wouldnt buy (yet).

I own ArmA for a couple of weeks now, but it is a low quality product. Nothing works properly and it still has the same mistakes as ArmA 1.

Maybe it will be good for the SP / coop fraktion, as soon as they fix all bugs, but if you are into PvP, then it just sucks.

Haha I have put a fair few hours on ArmA (using my TrIR4, I wish ALL FPS had that) and I have to say... I didn't even know there was a PvP mode! LOL learn something everyday... I did the SP campaign and big style co-op...

I have it pre-ordered, it'll get here to NZ at some point, hopefully the same time as a few patches ;)

x 2 :)

Grrrr, I'm getting a Direct3D 9 error on load of demo. I'm running Vista 64 SP2.

Join the club!

As above, try editing the config file to set a more boring resolution (ie not TH2G). These D3D errors were introduced big time in the latest patch. This will be a great game, some day.
