@Aivanov - Buy Flaming Cliffs from the www.lockon.ru site, so you have your own activation code. I'm sure you'll find someone who will burn the files for you and mail you a CD

 

well, i can try this idea, not bad, but who"s got FC here in Croatia.I can"t find FC in any of game stores, especialy from someone of peps!

Maybe no peeps in Croatia. But almost all folks on these forums have FC installation files. And mailing a CD is possible all over the world, even to Croatia ;)

 

there are 4 files of webdownload Flaming Cliffs (setup, seazonal pack, movie pack, and patch 1.11), and they won't fit on 1 CD, so together 2 CDs

Some people say they're ok, but last time I checked if you used Ventrilo voice comms they had issues.

 

I've never had a problem w/any of my SB products (then again, I never owned a LIVE card).

 

 

I have one- no problems noted- other than once I tried to update drivers.. that was a disaster. Screwed up Teamspeak, all kinds of havoc.. back to original..

I use SB Live! value and I only keep it coz it has digital DIN input for my surround speaker system ( I only plug one cable into it that comes from the subwoofer and all the satelites connect to it so there are no 100 cables conected to my audio card) but I'm considering of changing it coz it conflicts with my teamspeak and ventrilo when playing lockon. When I'm connected to sqd ventrilo and I join a game in lockon my mic suddenly starts transmiting static. I fixed that setting up a bind key that resets input device but then again it's only short term solution (when joining game again I have to use the bind key again). So to cut the story short I agree, SB Live card blows.

Posted

I own a SB X-Fi card and am experiencing just the same thing, so its not the SB-Live! problem, people... it happened once or twice that the game did UNFREEZE after a few seconds, but 99% of the time it just remains frozen and i can hear things happening (with a usual crash ending everything)), its just that the video is like 2 frames violently fighting to show themselves.. as if the screen kept dividing into multiple fragments showing 1st frame, then the 2nd one then the 1st one and so on...

 

(oh and BTW: I dont get to see the task mgr, just the windows cursor)

 

My opinion: its the LockOn issue, not my HW issue.

Which driver? the SBLive! driver or SB X-Fi driver?

And it happened when i was using my onboard sound only, prior to x-fi purchase... so I guess thats not the issue either...

 

What really buggers me is NOT knowing the cause :mad:

It still happens to me if I disable both drivers and hardware from loading (onboard and sblive) in the device manager. So it is not sound.

It might be some lockon engine fault: poor support of our chipset maybe Wretched? Because we have the same one (nForce2).

Anyway I've played lots of games, and never hit a bug with SB Live drivers you people are talking about that prevented me from playing or hearing sound properly. I remember that sound was cracking/poping in one game (The Thing), but it was poor sound engine coding fault and was fixed with first patch.

Yep. Today I had few perfect flights when the VVS504 server was not crowded. No lockups. But a moment ago when the server was filled with ~10 ppl I had 3 lockups (3 tries, totally random lockups).

So they happen more often in crowded multiplayer game, and I can confirm that also in large singleplayer campaigns.

I've added extra colling to my GPU and it's memories. This has reduced stress temperature down by 40 degree Celcius; and still lockups. I'm out of ideas. ED, Please HELP!

I'm attaching my dxdiag here... hope it helps with patching or whatever, because at present I'm simply disgusted by the lockups..

Those bugs do take away the pleasure and totally spoil my game experience.

Take care of them.

I've just been on 504th server, fully crowded 23 clients.

I havent managed even to spool up my engines before LockOn graphics locked up.

I have to say ED's customer support is very quick when it comes to replies.

I've contacted them, explained our problem, provided details, DxDiag reports, SiSoft Sandra reports.

Unfortunately there will be no solution for my problem. ED lead tester Tuseyev Daniel told me this unstability has not been completely resolved in 1.11, but they are doing the best they can to get rid of it in 1.12.

I'm keeping my fingers crossed.

For now I just have to live with it, play small and simple missions and avoid crowded multiplayer games to keep number of lockups to minimum.

 

Here's original, last response:

Hello,

Unfortunally, this unstability is not completely resolved in 1.11.

Now we're prepairing the new patch 1.12, we doing all what we can to resolve these problems.

We're sorry for this problems.

 

Best regards

Tuseyev Daniel

One and half year latter...

 

OK, after one and half year, with the patch 1.12a it is the same here.

 

(I enter RAF dedicated server and either my lockon freezes/lockups after minutes. Graphics are frozen, I still hear sound. Can't do nothing! The funniest thing is that my plane still does fly, and usually ends crashing into the ground.

Strange response to controls. When I press ESC, cursor shows up, but I don't see the quit window. But I think that's because the screen doesn't update. The only thing I can do is CTRL+ALT+DEL and patiently wait for task manager to popup so I can kill lockon.exe)
