    After Burner Sound problem

    in Bugs and Problems

    Posted

    Hi,

     

    I've had a annoying sound problem for some time. If I put the afterburners on for more than a minute the engine and wind sound are reduced significantly, so much so that I have to turn the sound up. Once the afterburners are off the sound kicks back in a couple of seconds later.

     

    I've updated the drivers and reduced the sound accelerator without success.

     

    Any ideas?

     

    My specs are:

     

    AMD Athlon 3500+

    MSI RX 1950 Pro (512 mo)

    ASUS A8R-MVP

    1 Gig Corsair Ram

    Thanks for all your input, I finally seem to be getting somewhere.

     

    The turning point for me is hitting the deck with 2.5° of pitch. It would appear that the speed, sink rate and touching down position aren't critical :smartass:

     

    Of course I'm only a newbie, what do I know :smilewink:

    Thanks for the input guys,

     

    I've reduced the fuel load and have landed a few times successfully, although it's still not good enough.

     

    It's true that I generally touch down before the first wire, I don't add full power as I come across the deck maybe that why?

     

    Do you follow the Datum point right to the touch down or look at the deck for the final adjustments?

    Hi Folks,

     

    Since upgrading to 'FC' I am having a terrible time trying to land on a carrier.

     

    In desperation I've decided to ask your advice :helpsmilie:

     

    I realise that I'm probably hitting the deck a little early, thats to say before the first wire, could that be it ?

     

    Anyway heres a "trk" file if anyone has the time to look.

     

     

     

    Thanks in advance :thumbup:

    Hi,

     

    I'm trying to get an AI Su-33 to land at Bambora, I've set the last way point on the approach 'diamond' at 1024m. The AI turns in and starts down the glide slope but about 1/3rd of the way down he breaks off to the right, climbs to about 900m, then falls to 362m whilst turning back onto the glide path and then lands.

     

    Is it possible to get the AI to just turn in and land?

    I'll try again, here are screen shots from the 2 PC's at the same moment in the same mission.........

    On the better machine all the gauges are of a similar quality however, on the inferior machine the ADI, VVI and the clock are excellent but all the other gauges are blurred?

     

     

    Incidentally I was running the 9800Pro on a resolution of 1024x768 (4/3), since I changed it to 1280x1024 (5/4) and from 16 bit to 32 bit it's much better:thumbup:

    Hi All,

     

    I have 2 PC's, one which I use and one which my father uses.

     

    My PC specs.

    Windows XP Professionnel (build 2600) Service Pack 2

    AMD Athlon 64 Processor 3500+ (Socket 939)

    Asus A8R-MVP

    1 Gig Corsair

    MSI RX1950Pro (512 mo)

    Samsung SyncMaster 226BW

     

    My Fathers Specs.

    Windows XP Professionnel (build 2600) Service Pack 2

    AMD Athlon 64 Processor 3500+ (Socket 939)

    Epox 9NDA3+

    1 Gig Corsair

    Radeon 9800 Pro (128 mo)

    Hyundai Q17

     

    OK the image on my PC is great (40 to 80 FPS). However, on the PC my father uses it's somewhat blurred, particularly the gauges and Hud in the cockpit (he gets about 25 to 35 FPS). With my fathers fading eyesight it's pretty tricky :cry:

     

    Is there anything that can be tweaked to get the cockpit image a little more 'crisp':thumbup:

     

    He's using:

     

    AA - Quality mode

    Antialiasing - 4x

    AF - 4x with full trueliner

    Texture Pref. - High Quality

    MipMap - High Quality

     

    Thanks for any suggestions :)

    Hi,

     

    Four days ago I purchased (via the internet), a copy of Flaming Cliffs however, I cannot download it. In the "Payments" section on your site it says that I have bought nothing? I have received an e-mail to confirm the purchase with a unique reference for the transaction: xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx

     

    Thanks in advance for your assistance.

    Newbie Trim Tabs

    in Lock On: Flaming Cliffs 1 & 2

    Posted

    Hi Guys,

     

    A real newbie question hear

     

    I use the up and down arrows for the trim tabs however, I rarely get the plane to fly level, I always seem to be between two settings

     

    Is there a way to make the tabs less sensitive and or is there another method ?

     

    Also do you guys get the plane trimmed exactly or do you just do it approximately?

     

    I have a CH Products Fighter Stick (without Throttle).

     

    Thanks in advance for any info.

    Second Copy of Flaming Cliffs

    Thanks for the info. :thumbup:

     

    I received the second serial N° today (a big thank you to Lockon.ru for their rapide service and who kept me informed).

     

    As for my Dads internet, he has what Orange.fr call a 1 mega ADSL, but the truth is that the connection drops every 5 to 20 minutes, enough time to get the StarForce thingy but not enough to download anything (I hope). :doh:

    Hi,

     

    Now I realise that I might get a stiff talking to with this question, but here goes :music_whistling:

     

    Now that I have FC installed, a pleasant surprise was that some of the warnings are in English however, the Tower, AWACS and Wingmen still talk in Russian.

     

    Is there a way to get the messages in English? :book:

    Thanks for your reply Alpha,

     

    When I connected to the site today all was as it should be and I was able to download FC 1.1b :smilewink:

     

    A quick question though, I notice that there is a patch 1.12b which says "Patch ver.1.12b for Web downloaded english language** version of LockOn 1.1: Flaming Cliffs".Does this mean that it is not compatible with 1.1b or can I still install it ?

     

    Thanks again :thumbup:

    Just to give you a little more info. after the successful payment my browser did not "automatically redirecte to the successful order completion page". Instead it just hung there and nothing happened.

     

    Eventually I gave up and consulted my e-mails where I found the notification from Protx with "The unique reference for this transaction".

     

    I returned then to http://lockon.co.uk/ and nothing, as if my payment had not been received !

     

    So what do I do now ?

    Hi,

     

    I know this is going to sound terribly stupid but..............

     

    I've ordered and paid for a download version of FC on the lockon.co.uk site , I've received the confirmation e-mail but I don't understand how to download it.

     

    I've followed the notice in the FAQ and still I'm bafflled.

     

    What confuses me even further is that when logged in and I look at "Paymlents" the transaction history says "You have not paid for anything yet."

     

    Is it me or is there something fancy I have to do ?

     

    Thanks for any advice or reassurance :)
