Last patch probs
« on: June 25, 2004, 06:36:44 AM »
Had screen freezes down to a minimum, but still stuttering before last patch.
  Now I have went from stuttering/mini freezes to long freezes. On runway, long pauses. Change views, long pauses. Tilt wings, long pauses. Engage planes= fogetaboutit, pauses deny any kind of gun res or gameplay totaly.
  I have sound accleration turned down with no help. I have sliders maxed to performance, which in it`s self seems to contradict what AHII is supposed to be all about.
  As mentioned in the other posts I`m also experiencing instant CTD if ship guns are attempted.

I`ve dropped down to 600x800 with no help.  Once again IMO this contradicts the whole object of AHII.

Except for CTD's, before this last patch I was very happy.  With every thing else exactly the same, instantly with last patch things went to hell.  

My frames rates are still fine but game will hesitate for a momment especially when I am very close to other planes (in particular bombers).  Never had that trouble before.

Athlon 1.4
128 meg DDR
SB Live
FX 5200 128

game settings at default everything - though I did lower the resolution to 800x600  (didn't make a difference)

This is a lot longer pause than when first loading new texture puses form earlier on (maybe 2x to 3x as long)

put your sound acceleration to max. I have read that reducing it makes you proc. do all the sound work and not your soundcard hardware.

hunter, that depends on what type of sound card you have, some like the AC are already complety CPU based, and the ACCELERATION slider just puts a higher priority on the cpu.
