    Xam

    Is anybody playing with this, I havent read much about it but I heard that it fixes alot of problems (sound, graphics and more) but also causes much lag. I was playing on the OC server for a bit and one of the guys said he had some part of it which let him see in infrared in certain vehicles (gunship, tank, etc.) but lagged uncontrollably when left on longer than 20-30 seconds.
    Anybody ever played with this or able to give any reviews?

    Re: Xam

    I watched some videos of it and wasn't very impressed. I've been on some servers that say you'll be banned for using XAM, so it must have some advantageous elements not in the original game.

    Either way, it just looked 'goofy' to me.

    Bump... Think XAM came out with a new update, looks pretty well improved? Anybody tried this one out?

    Re: Xam

    I haven't tried the new one. THe old one was garbage IMHO. I did not like the menu and background changes. The sounds weren't special and the ArmA Effects were just as good if not better than the Xam Effects. Also you didn't get the lag nor the server crashes related to Xam. I would be hesitant to try a total conversion type mod. Many mods exist that accomplish the same goal, but give you more customization freedom.

    Meh - it looks like it's got some pretty cool features, but I just can't get into this one.
