Maj (Ret) Ray Posted December 14, 2016 When mod compatibility is sorted out, this should provide noticeable stability improvements on larger maps and missions. I am mildly to moderately enthused, especially for the server side. MAJ E. RAY Retired MRB Command Staff (R)

SSgt (Ret) Melo Posted December 14, 2016 I almost choked... Shouldn't it have been done a couple of years ago? Regardless, it is happening and this could provide us with less problems with FPS stability and ARMA in general. SSGT D. MELO Retired 3d MRB, Marine Raider Regiment

Crowley Posted December 15, 2016 It won't actually change hardly any of the performance server side, simply allocate more memory per Arma server host which isn't a problem right meow. But, what this will do according the dev notes is allow Arma clients to allocate more memory beyond the recent cap of 3GB(1.66 dev note) on 64-bit capable computers. The dev even state quite clearly that FPS increase is probably not going to be a thing, so don't expect it. Stability, texture loading, and modpacks are the winners here.
Crowley Posted December 15, 2016 Also, all the mods we currently use that utilize call extensions will have to be updated accordingly before they work properly. Reference here under "for modders"
