Unaccounted things that ARE noticed, and should be written down and added for further testing of course. And yes 'no fixes' would be wonderful.

*BUMP* ED where are you?

Ctrl-R or Flight/Record.. Prophet, instead of hitting FLY. Yeah I saw this as well. I actually thought the stutter issue was this chicken dance the planes do where they move up/down/left/right a few feet when taxiing and sometimes in flight. Only thing I can think of is that the variables are screwed up. Or the WORLD isnt calculating and passing on the information smoothly enough. Something like that. Not meaning to be harsh. But how did these problems get past the Beta testers? Hope the patch is out soon.

I thought I'd use this thread instead of starting a new one. I'm reporting about the Fixes that have problems. Apart from people stating they can no longer join servers now, they can only join servers after a system restore and joining a server without the latest fixes. Problems I'm having is screen freeze ups during AWACS calls to nearest threat. It happens when the text is displayed at the top of the screen, the game will freeze up for a second or two. It also happens when 'player killed player ' is displayed on the screen also. Im also getting timeouts on occasions in servers, and I have already made the timeout edit as provided by Han. I'm going to half this value and try it out. On some occasions I see players in each team. I select a plane and hit FLY. But I load up into my own game instead of the servers, and it says press 'S' to start. So I'm in my own mission not the servers; and wonder wtf ? Also Planes are doing the chicken dance again online( jittering up/down/left/right). I'm very tempted to remove the patches and experiment some more. Will report any further errors or improvements I find. Any other pilots experiencing issues with these new fixes? I've heard of two pilots already not being able to join a server with the fixes, but they can join a server without them. Over and Out.

Cmon guys..I'm sure they are well aware of the problems that need attention. Be patient, these things happen. Heres hoping it's going to be sorted out soon.

LawnDart, do you mean setting it fixed at 4096-4096 or 1024-4096? I just read that using a fixed pagefile is better then nominating a range for windows to use at its discretion. Also that when the PC is shutdown at restarted this swap is cleaned out. However I hardly ever turn my PC off. I know this is off-topic, but just curious.

Use DriverCleaner to remove all traces of older video drivers. -then install new drivers. A reinstall of Windows can do wonders. In regards to LockOn settings, Im sure other X800 users can give you some advice. :) Enjoy your new card.

I use my swap/page file(1024-3072) on a separate 7gig partition(F: drive). And FC is located on C: drive. My specs: AMD2500@2800+ 1024MB RAM (Dual channel) Gigabyte 5900XT(61.72 drivers)

This has to be an understatement. I know exactly what Prophet means. This has been happening to me also on occasions, and I run a 5900XT Nvidia. And 'no' my card is not reaching high temps. The game will freeze up, although I can still hear the engine noises, then it will release and resume. One other thing I cant remember, but Prophet didn't your game freeze up also at the same time mine did the other day/night when we were flying? Cant exactly confirm this 100%, but I'll ask other players in game when it occurs again. Also the stuttering issue is 'weird'. I saw this jerky effect happening when flying close in formation or taxiing during the first 4 or so flights of FC. From now on, every server I join doesnt seem to be doing this anymore. Of course theres the random FPS drop(6-7fps) every 2-4 secs, but the stuttering effect seems to have disappeared. Ive asked others and they've noticed that the stuttering effect has been as noticable/there anymore either. Heh.. spooky. Hope they get these isues sorted out soon. Over and Out.

Can I just ask one simple question. Why were these aspects of radar functionality and missile code changed from what it was in 1.02?

BBQ, looks similar to what happens when you Alt-Tab out and back into game. Also I've found problems with certain video card drivers with lock on graphics not working correctly. I suggest trying out lower versions of video card drivers. Just a suggestion. ;)

Not sure if this is a bug, maybe someone can confirm it. When locking a target in EOS, he recieves no warning on his RWR(correct function). Then directly pressing 'I' to SCAN radar mode whilst still locked, the target should recieve a lock warning on his RWR, yet he receives no warning. Is this because EOS mode is still active, yet I've switched to SCAN BVR directly from EOS(pressing 'I')? Whilst flying with a team member we both tried this, and had the same thing occur. We were both flying Mig29's within visual range. EDIT: My apologies, I see Goya already mentioned this.

RIP. :(

What Mustang mentioned also worked for me. I no longer have sudden frame drops or sound glitches as often as I used to. Everything in game feels alot smoother. Apart from the odd missing cockpit graphics on first spawn, I'm still trying to work that out. Also I'd like to mention you often defragment your hardrive. A good program I've used for some time is Diskeeper Lite. Its freeware also. GL. :)

:D Very exciting news!! Time to find out who is the best of the best of the best. :lol: On a serious note, its been well structured to accomodate for skilled pilots as well as lesser skilled pilots. So anything can happen ! Join up all. See you in the skies. :wink:
