-'''-nomap''' is an '''[[:Category:Operation Flashpoint|Operation Flashpoint]] Startup Parameter''', which forces OFP to avoid memory mapping for file access.
-''Flashpoint only. This 'switch' has no effect for Armed Assault and is not relevant for, Armed Assault. Potentially, use -maxmem for similar intended results.''
-While memory mapping is very efficient from  a performance point of view, it can quickly fill all available virtual space, causing various memory allocation errors or even driver crashes or freezes.
-This switch is especially important for users with display adapters with large amounts of VRAM (128MB or more), which reserves a lot of virtual addresses in the application address space for themselves.
