If you didn't get it the first 237 explanations, is one more really going to do it for you?

yeah you have a point there. I just figured out why the discos though. Everytime I lower the flaps in my spit16, i get booted. Is that a sound pack problem? Seems like I heard Rangers sounds did that to a few people. It doesn't happen in any of the other planes.

Could be a bug they don't know about.   Post a thread in the bugs forum or email em.

If you think it could be a sound issue, remove the sound files, then try to recreate the event. If the game doesn't crash then, the sound may well be the issue. If you restore the sound, and the game crashes, it's more than likely the culprit.

Lemme guess, sound blaster?

If so, use the windows drivers.  That fixed some Huge disco issues for me.

Don't forget to update DX drivers after you update other stuff. DX for some reason likes to be the last word on updates for some reason.  Good advice from these guys though, hit the tech support forums, smart guys there, compared to just smart alec guys like me in here :D

I dunno, I kinda agree with Uptown here. I mean, get discoe'd and can't get back in?

Maybe there should be a 30 second or 1 minute grace period, where you could get back in.

IE: you log out or get discoed, the server keeps the spot for a minute for you just in case.

Seems fair to me.

I guess i shouldn't butt in here though, cancelled my sub due to burn-out (I'll be back though...still the best gig in town;) ), just need a break.

cheers,

I had that exact same problem awhile back with the spixteen flaps disco thing. I deleted the flap sound & subbed in a different one & problem solved.

I think its some kinda HTC revenge system.

If you get a bunch of kills being a ho,vulch,runtard,cherrypicker, the "revenge" code is implemented, and you get discoed.

To further the punishment, the server drops the player number, to make sure your anger last's for five mins more. :aok

Should we worship him or kill him?
