Author Topic: Inverse Blackouts (Read 293 times)

Yesterday I installed DX8.1; I got a 10-15 FPS boost and I had no dificulties other than having to delete my video.cfg file and reaquainting my joystick with the OS...

...or so I thought. First time in combat I pull back on the stick and a large black blob appears in the center of my screen. This blob decreases in size as I pull more G's until the screen goes black with full blackout. Its the inverse of the normal blackout.

Is there a solution?

System:
CPU - PIII 1Ghz (Win2k w/ SP2)
Video - Geforce 2 GTS 32MB (12.41 detenators)
RAM - 512MB
Sound - SBLive! value (original driver)
Joystick - MS FFB (Win2k provided drivers)
DX - 8.1

I have had that several times, and it always takes a uninstall/reinstall of the game to fix it for me.

Yep. An eye is now growing in your ass.

No wait.. thats not it

Reinstall vid and sound drivers if you install a new version of directx.

Check my sig. Try the 7.58 Detonators with Win2k.
