Strange Video Bug
« on: November 19, 2006, 05:59:02 PM »
Suddenly during flight i noticed that the range of view seemed to be some kind of shorte than before. Toggling through shift F1-F4 didnīt improve anything

After ending the sortie I left game & restarted.

Suddenly my screen got kinda "whiteout". I could barely see anything & AH2 tried to rebuild cache. Switching per alt-tab do desktop changed nothing, could barely see anything there too. After shutting down AH2, everything reverted to normal.

Looking at my video8.cfg, I found this:

132352,VideoVersion
1280,Width
1024,Height
32,ColorDebth
1,DeviceCnt
DVDVDVDVDVDVDVDVDVDVDVDVDVDVD VDVDVDVDVDVDVDVDVDVDVDVDVDVDV DVDVDVDVDVDVDVDVDVDVDVDVDVDVD VDVDVDVDVDVDVDVDVDVDVDVDVDVDV DVDVDVDVDVDVDVDVDVDVDVDVDVDVD VDVDVDVDVDVDVDVDVDVDVDVDVDVDV DVDVDVDVDVDVDVDVDVDVDVDVDVDVD VDVDVDVDVDVDVDVDVDVDVDVDVDVDV DVDVDVNVIDIA GeForce 6600
0,MaxFPS
0,PixelShaders
0,VertexShaders
512,MaxTexSize
2158,OptionFlags
1.18,Gamma


After deleting the file, everything went back to normal, the excessive "DVDVD..." was gone.

The strange thing is, I did not try to change any video settings or view options prior to this incident and was already flying in that session for several hours.
