Majesco Posted January 17, 2007 Posted January 17, 2007 Lockon sometimes makes itself a visual bug of planes exhaust (does it relate to hardware errors ??? ). It’s an unpredicted bug that sometimes, in some cases appear when you was playing for a long time and then you escape to Windows, do sumthings and then back to the game. I’ve had this many times until now. In the below picture, you can see a strange effect of the exhaust, it seems to have reflection, looks like a mirror. This bug’ll disappear only if you restart LO or escape to Windows and then return to the game Does anyone have any idea about this ?
Disso Posted January 17, 2007 Posted January 17, 2007 Well of course, you answered it yourself. Graphical glitches like these always occur when you alt-tab out of games and back in, making all the graphics reload and re-render. Every time I alt-tab out and back in, clouds show up as blocks, the cockpit is completely distorted, etc, but I usually, I can just alt tab back out and back in to re-render everything and after a few tries it returns to normal, with all the glitches sorted out. Just don't all tab out! ;) SU-30MKI F/A-18F ...Beauty, grace, lethality.
Guest Sam2612 Posted January 17, 2007 Posted January 17, 2007 i get the same problem if i fly below speeds of 500kph and i dont alt tab out
britgliderpilot Posted January 17, 2007 Posted January 17, 2007 Are you complaining about the heat haze effect existing, or that it's malfunctioning? With the exhaust effects turned on there is meant to be a shimmering effect behind the engines below 500km/h - it's a feature. It might look a little unusual in the screenies posted, but I can't put my finger on anything specific . . . . Nice skin on the Su30, btw. http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v121/britgliderpilot/BS2Britgliderpilot-1.jpg
graywo1fg Posted January 18, 2007 Posted January 18, 2007 you know you guys wont have to alt tab out if you select lockon to be a windowed screen and just have it as the same rez as your desktop rez it will be full screen so alt tabbing wouldn't minimize it :smartass: thats what i have it set up as because my graphics get screwed up all the time when i "minimize" my game or alt tab out. so thats how i fixed that issue.

He knows what heat blur is and what it looks like, but the heat blur effect here is obviously glitchy, I mean you can see the complete outline and oval shape of the heatblurr, in addition to the off yellow color, most evident in the bottom screenie.
