Strat Bombing Disco
« on: January 11, 2005, 02:48:26 PM »
Every  time I bomb a strat, doesn't matter which map, after the bomb explosions (direct hit), the buildings do not appear to be damaged, the text buffer immediately slows and 10 or 15 seconds later displays the building destroyed message every few seconds intermixed with radio text.  This goes on for several minutes ultimately ending with a host connection lost.  The text buffer, still way behind, then reports UDP lost, swithcing to TCP.  What in the Heck is going on?

This has never happened to me, but it explains what I saw last night. I was climbing to a B-24 formation near our base. He dropped, and as I was closing in, about 1-2 minutes later, all three planes suddenly exploded. Gone. No Chutes. No debris.

I thought he was a lamer that had just dropped and found a way to .ef back to his tower at warp speed. Guess not.

Thats the same as the Lancaster trouble I am seeing with using the  4K bomb.

Something in the back of my mind says this is linked to the number of screenshots and/or films you have in your Aces High folder - though I've no idea why!  I know it causes problems starting films or taking screenshots when there are too many, but seem to have this niggling thought that it may affect bombing too?    I know someone had that problem in the last scenario.....  Anyway, might be worth checking just in case.... otherwise just ignore me.  LOL  :lol
