Thanks for replying this qrdl, This confirmes that the bug itself is not hardware related, happens on nvidia and ati video cards. This bug followed trough from 1.0 to its present state. Its a fustrating bug, when you fly a couple of hours, hunting down enemy birds. Gattering points, then this thing happens. It crashes my system. Im forced to hard reset if im not quick enough. I hate doing hard reset. Might cause lost clusters, might damage my hard disk. Seems happenning when server has been running for a long time, but then again seems sporatic. But Im addicted to lockon so I loaded it back up, hehe 8) Im woundering Chizh, did you ever found the source of this issue?

Verry nice indeed :shock: :wink:

Not sure actualy. But the details are awesome.

Having eye candy in this sim as this pic would be awesome :lol: I Know, cant be done or can it?..... :wink: Thanks to Mustang to providing me this pic, Im drooling over it :lol: I wanted to share it with all this community. cheers 8) Feel free to join our website, http://www.169thpanthers.net lots of pics available over there... :wink: :tonqe:

We have been noticing this effect on multiplayer. Comes and goes. But when it happens it crashes not only the server, but your computer also. I surely hope the Dev's can isolate the cause and remedy it with 1.1. Here are some more pics of the same effect http://169thpanthers.net/main/modules/pnCPG/coppermine/albums/userpics/10046/ScreenShot_670.jpg http://169thpanthers.net/main/modules/pnCPG/coppermine/albums/userpics/10118/ScreenShot_038%7E1.jpg http://169thpanthers.net/main/modules/pnCPG/coppermine/albums/userpics/10134/ScreenShot_200.jpg I have Dubed it the "A" bomb bug effect Cheers

Hi, Was woundering about it since I'm using the original profile and jpg that was provided with the version 1.02. Will they be a revised version from Andrey Chizh of this with 1.1? It would be greatly appreciated if you do. Thanks

LoL this is what happens when you play to much of LockOn. Nice find. :lol: :supz: Just found my old pic that I've posted a while back in the bugs forum about this. The awac parked over a respawn point. LoL its new breed. http://www.169thpanthers.net/main/modules/pnCPG/coppermine//albums/userpics/10046/ScreenShot_120%7E0.jpg

Thanks for your input, greatly appreciated. Time to hit the books :wink: Cheers. Hooked on LockOn

Hi, Just a curious question. Why have you chosen Lua programming compared to others programing software & compilers on the market? Was LockOn initialy made with Lua or did you changed language in the process. Im just woundering, was it question of flexibility? I do consider myself a newby in regards of programming. Only Language I learned back then was Turbo Pascal. I know, Its old school. :wink: Woundering because Im thinking going back in that curve of learning. But Im woundering If I should go with C++ or with other programming software. Also woundering Lua seems simular to visual basic. I might be mistaken, true only glimps on the codes briefly. Does Lua comes with a compiler? If so, can you compile in different OS? I need a good push in the right direction. Thanks in advance. Cheers Hooked on LockOn

Cool, thanks for the update. For the Matrix effect, yes it seems to be only multiplayer. Looking forward for 1.1 Thanks for all your hard work. Cheers Addicted to LockOn

Re: Graphic bug, Warning high rez pic inluded I've tested from official video drivers to old ones to beta ones, the issue always seem to be re occuring. Also issue was apperent even before service pack 2 came out. Dont think thats the issue. Im still looking to isolate issue. But I agree its a bug that should be address by the dev's and beta testers. Thanks for letting us know that we aint alone experiencing it. Try joining online Overcast thunderstorm online servers. Theres another bug That I wished it would be looked at. Rain stuck in Mid air, wont hit the ground, we named it the matrix effect. Reason I like playing overcast, Its too beautifull.. Im reporting these issue, since as a consumer I feel you should know what the end user are experiencing. Why am i doing it. It because I believe in Eagle Dynamics and want to continue supporting it the best way I can. Cheers.

Issue reported with 9800xt and nvidia FX5900 graphics cards. Maybe with higher end video cards. Still have not put my hand on one yet. So cannot confirmed for nvidia 6800 or Xt800. Tought letting you know... This pic are trees shaped like blocs. I've also notice this type of distortion with buildings...Heat & drivers seem to have been elimitaded as possible cause for this issue. Also since it was confirmed with the 2 major supplier or graphics cards on the market. They say pics or louder then words, so here it is; Again issue seems to be random, so pin pointing the source is hard to Identify.

Also note that Ati 9800xt users reported the issue also. It has to be bug. Failed to see where issue would be hardware or connection related. Since issue seem to happen randomly. Shadow settings? If possible you should address it with your online beta testers for testing. Thanks in advance

Hi, I've been testing playing Online with Overcast with Thunderstorm enable. Players have been reporting in. I've also experience this issue when its hosting by someone else. The rain is frozen in mid air. We named it the Matrix effect lol. Woundering if this is a bug itself.... Works sometimes, sometimes not. I would not think its a connection issue but then again I might be wrong. My connection; 5mbit down 1mbit up. When hosting I dont see this effect only people comming in to the server. Then again its not all. Some will see the rain drops fall. Others stuck in mid air. True I know playing overcast online is truly demanding, But I have the hardware for it . Im woundering what could be the cause.... Any toughts or suggestion is greatly appriciated. Thanks in advance. Keep up the good work Eagle Dynamics. specs: ASUS P5P800 LGA775 5 PCI 8X AGP 1x GBL, DDR400 Intel P4 3.4G 1MB (550) 800FSB LGA775 KHX3200AK2/1G 1024MB 400MHz DDR Non-ECC CL2 DIMM MSI Fx5900xt<- I know its my bottle neck, will fix that soon:-) Cheers, Addicted to LockOn

Hi, Dev's, If you consider such a feature. This would give Multiplayer a fonction, that I never seen with other sim's on the market. At the moment... I feel, this type of fonction is needed and wanted by the online community. Im only asking you consider it. I know all your efforts are pointing on the new release and Im glad, to see this enteprise. Putting there knowledge and hardwork to give us the best you can. Your endevors are appreciated. Im proud for all your efforts and proud to support it. The idea itself is good. Do hope you consider it... Addicted to LockOn. Best Sim I've seen. Proud to support you team. Keep up the good work. Cheers 8)

Thanks...

Hi Dev's, I was testing the recording and exporting feature of lockon to make a movie. I was puzzled when trying to export a movie that was made in day 12. To my amazement the exporting process jump back to sound, then to main menu. Tried re installing the game, since thought it was something on my end. It never recorded my track, if only for 1 second. Talked to bSr LoCsta about it and he also confirmed the issue. To only way to record and and export the file. The mission in question has to be set to day 1. Found out its the only way to make it happen. On day 1 able to export, not the other days. So would this bug be address in 1.1? As always, thanks in advance. Its the best sim ever. Keep up the great work. Im hooked. Cheers

Well EB is where I initialy bought LockOn, I actualy called them over and over t'ill they had in stock. Most expensive? I think not. But at least they brought it in. Bought the first copy of the shelves. If I can upgrade to a computer worth a couple of thousands. Only for this Simulator (like most of us). I would think I can afford for the rest.... Cheers

Thanks :wink: Anxious for the release to take place...

Hi, I heard so far, that no distributors would be available in North America for the add-ons. Im curious, I heard of potential of buying it online, via download . My Question is; What happen if I my download is corrupted or the download has too many packet loss due to routing issues bettween both continent. If computer shuts down, during the download process. Example power failure. Things that would be out my control. If I purchase it online, would they be any guaranty's on the product & the download? Would they be availability to ship CD's trough mail? I would prefer the CD in a box set, to add to my collection. Would prefer to pick it up in any EB stores in my area. To touch it before I buy it. Would it be possible? Any progress made in that area? Thanks in advance for the answers. Faithfull, LockOn player. Cheers

That would be a and Xtrem asset. Hope the dev's keep it up in mind....

Copy, I modified the post.

Cheers 8)
