okay, thanks for the tips. i always think that it was on the game's side and not your mod for causing the lag cause it happened around march/april 2025 when the stuttering happens. my specs are RTX 3050 and Core i5 12th gen

I remember an arma update in the last year that caused stuttering for me. I think it was -enableHT (hyper threading) and I had to turn it off. I may be misremembering.

Here's some info from an arma OPREP [dev.arma3.com]

* Only use the -cpuCount parameter if you want to intentionally limit how many CPU cores the game can use. The engine can already automatically detect how many cores you have, so you do not need to tell it that.
* The -enableHT parameter has no effect if -cpuCount is set, so setting both is wrong. Our tests have shown that -enableHT performs worse, but it may depend on your hardware. You can use YAAB to test if it actually helps in your case.
* The -exThreads parameter should not be used. If you have a 4 core CPU or better, all of them are already enabled by default. And if you have fewer than 4 cores, enabling more exThreads is more likely to cause harm than to be helpful.

i have a lot of mods, but only units and factions. i tried hyper threading, enabled large page support, increased system memory limit, and increased video memory limit. i put the memory allocator to TTB 4 and even enabling extra threads which is all in the parameter section

Not really. Have you tried with no mods or dlc? I can't remember what you'd tried earlier.

hi, i was gone for about 2 months and i played again recently which i tried tweaking with the video settings and parameters. still no luck and it freezes every 3 seconds when i open the map or being close with 2-3 squads of units. any clue?
