:D good job DPS...

Just two more days! ;) ....

Nothing in Modman that applies and some graphics.cfg changes that only makes buildings show up sooner... Everything stock and this still happens. Monitor is Gateway FPD2185w

Over the past few months I have had many opportunities to do Air to Ground missions in flights with other pilots and one thing has consistently popped up. I see ground targets sooner than most people. It's officially annoying because it often takes the fun out of the missions. I run at 4xAF and 4xAA at 1680x1050 (21in Widescreen) I fully understand that the armored targets are appearing because the ground textures aren't rendering that far out, but is there a universally applicable fix for this? The higher resolutions make this possible (i.e. I cant see these targets at say 1280x1024,) but 4:3 ratio 1600x1200 CRT's were certainly available when this game was first made... Click this link and then click it once more to get the fullest res... look just right of the maverick cursor... 22 miles! :noexpression: http://s144.photobucket.com/albums/r198/Battle_Rattle/?action=view&current=ScreenShot_010.jpg

I would like to eat my words but I would call "snow balls chance in hell" on that one... They do that and a OC'd Nehalem Quad server could host a Red Flag event (80+ pilots) with anything goes (illumination flares etc...,) Radar sweeps galore, and all armor and ships moving.... You could finally just start throwing the ready made Battalions into missions and put them on the move LOL AHHHHHH ED do it!!!! :lol:

That [T] means do not "Try" what reaper just did ;) Seriously though... what other apps you have running at the time?

Is this Creative charging 10$ for the full suite of Vista Apps for old Audigy cards? Cause free Drivers are on their website... I guess the free drivers dont allow for hardware acceleration? http://www.dailytech.com/article.aspx?newsid=7926

Well yes and no... Buy RAM from the place with the best Customer service and heatsink solutions (e.g. adhesives)...thats easy enough... However...I'm not certain from company to company, but one should also buy RAM that has realistic testing/binning and SPD metrics... but those aren't always known. Take my Gskill's for example... Iirc they are Crucial/Micron from the PCB to the IC's... the only thing they mess with is the SPD and they possibly have their own binning process... It's the binning process I'm skeptical of... If GSkill is zapping them with too many volts on purpose or by faulty equipment then screw them! lol It's all up for grabs when it comes to D9's (btw...all made by Micron) it seems, the thread from XSytems proves it... Thus it's all about the customer service they have... In the end though... I'm going with OCZ, Crucial, or Corsair next time...

LOL ... a little? I guarantee you didn't boot it like that. Unless you're about to tell us you're on LN2 5Ghz... Perhaps AMD held back on the Athlon 64 and it really could do 6Ghz on air with CnQ enabled and the HT to auto? :huh: lol Pilotasso ... I know... I'm just trying different things... as it stands im pissed at GSkill... 3 RMA's

Ugh nevermind..... BSOD'd this morning at idle.... "Memory_Management"

Ummmmm you'll be fine.... totally fine... and its 320mb

fwiw .... The intel microcode fix STOPPED my problems (see my linked threads) ... I have no idea how... but they are gone I installed the fix... lowered timings and rasied FSB and I'm back at 3.5Ghz... I would strongly urge though that if your system is not acting badly that you do NOT install it... If its not broke then dont fix it

Well they were beta to begin with... Is this some sort of drastic failure?

anyone confirm drastic degrading of ability to pick out ground targets? .... im on a 8800 btw... ill try some sub settings but the AA and AF are identical to my last driver installations

Cool stuff.... I'll add it to that Red Flag document

Goya... this list confirms the start problems had in Red Flag 2?

Sim HQ post http://www.simhq.com/forum/ubbthreads.php?ubb=showflat&Number=2245356&page=1#Post2245356 Fixed Single-GPU Issues GeForce 7 Series GPUs: Lock On: Modern Air Combat–graphics corruption occurs. (page 9) NVIDIA Issues—SLI Mode GeForce 7 Series GPUs: [sLI], GeForce 7950 GX2 Quad NVIDIA SLI: Lock On– slow performance in the game. GeForce 6 Series GPUs: [sLI], GeForce 6600, SLI, Windows XP: Lock On: Modern Air Combat has lower than expected performance at high resolutions with antialiasing enabled. I checked the notes for 8xxx series and nothing there.... Glad they looking into LOMAC though

By many accounts memtest86 lost its luster on intel boards, using HCI memtest in windows will more likely throw errors. Pilotasso, what do you mean when you removed them? Did your kit come without them (i know alot of Team does?)... To me that will do it... Extended, no contact usage even at stock with probably no fan over them.

Im calling RAM!!! ..... and im in the same boat.... I swear there is something with high end D9 chips on RAM. P965 and its new brother P35 were not overtly known to eat ram, but that doesn't stop alot from dying on them... Ok... enough of me interjecting my own theory onto your trouble shooting but escalating problems + BSOD sounds like Ram to me... While you wait... Read away (second one is me) Interesting read http://www.xtremesystems.org/forums/showthread.php?t=139544 My GSkill problem (on going) http://www.xtremesystems.org/forums/showthread.php?t=140505 BTW.... the heatspreaders all ok? Did you loosen timings to any effect? Pin down one suspect stick (use HCI memtest in windows)....

Anyone have a resource that says whether or not there are airports in the north eastern part of the combat theater (north of the highest mountain?) Specifically... The cities of Essentuki, Kislovodsk, or Ust-Dzheguta... I'm making a mission and short of having people start out in the air it's a bit difficult to have engagements that far north and east...

OMg i remember this.... There was an earlier arcade version and its the only game I would play... that and air hockey Whoever recorded that for youtube did not know how to play the game lol

Bivol... I was talking to my aunt again... I think we might be related lol

I knew it was big... but that scales it nicely... Nice shot

The sign of a true fun lover... you guys missed it, after the post brief Fusion asked for a Drunk RedFlag 3... everyone has to blow a .15 blood alcohol content before taking off... :huh: :pilotfly:
