    Black screen after .17 patch

    in Bugs and Problems

    Posted · Edited by SimFreak

    When game starts, I get a black screen with windows 'thinking' icon. This screen can last over few minutes. Same deal when a start mission. Sim switches to desktop, I get a black screen with icon for sometime, and then sim switches to loading screen. Also I get that during end mission - black screen for few minutes.

     

    During black screen, 'launcher.exe' showing that it's growing slowly. from 300mb to 450-500.

     

     

    Anyone know what causes this and how to repair?

     

    I've reinstalled A10C with latest base install and added .17 patch. '

     

    Thanks.

     

     

    Edit, also mission editor is having horrible lag. Almost to unusable level.

    Love the new patch!

    After installation and launch, I get a black screen with background music playing and windows 'thinking' mouse icon. Tried reinstalling patch and it did same thing. Then in windows manager I noticed that it said application was not responding and in processes "launcher" grew to half a gig over short period of time.

     

    So, if you get a black screen, just let it sit there. It's doing something.

    Improved IR Image (TGP IR)

    As a photographer, I can say that for me, this image is not FLIR. Its is a Highly contrasted BW image, more like the result of a Light Intensifier Camera.

     

    And more than that. Trees dont have heat of their own like mammals, so they would be at the same temperature as the enviroment that surrounds it. And one last thing. If that wasnt enough, that Hummvee has a very uniform heat signature. In real life, the engine bay would be hotter that its body for example, unless of course you adjust "levels" squeezing out all the hightlights.

     

    This is FLIR

     

     

    Here you can even identify what vehicles are active, those which were recently used and those parked for an extended time.

    FLIR image is highly depended on time of day/night. During thermal-crossover, FLIP becomes useless and EO sensor is your best option. That happens twice in 24hrs. So those images tell us nothing about when that time of thermal-crossover happens. DCS might have simulated image between best time and worst time since it requires so much work to do entire day/night temperature range.
