Crash when clouds set to 9 or 10

[jason_peters]

When I load or creater a mission which used clouds at 9 or 10 Lockon crashes - did not used to happen --- I've uninstalled all mods but still the same issue

 

using 7.6cats with x1950xtx crosfire (x2)

 

any thoughts?

Set first all graphics setting to default and start lock on again. Then start the game with clouds settings 9 or 10.

That should your help to solve this problem!;)

I use an ATI X800XT with latest 7.6, i too get the dreaded Weather.dll crash issue when overcast is set to 9 or 10, however, it stops crashing for me when i put my Direct3D Anisotropic Filtering setting at Application Preference.

 

This never used to be an issue in the past with the ATI cards, its a crash bug with the more recent driver sets, not sure if it will ever be fixed :(

Thanks for the pointers guys...

 

If I set the water to low and load the demo / mission it now loads....

 

However if I then quit the mission and change the water back to high and load the mission again it still loads.... strange eh? can u guys test to see if u get the same!

 

 

I have also noticed that when fog is in a mission I have to load the mission, quit the mission and load it again (ie click the fly button) to make the buildings fade in correctly.

 

This would point to a bug in Lockon rather than the drivers - maybe a combo of both???

With water on High or Very High and overcast, I get CTD too (X1950XtX with Cat's 7.6 here). Setting AF to off (application preferrence) did not help in my case.

I just hope they fix it in BS.

Or I will never have a chance to prove myself as a all weather pilot.
