Mini-freeze since update

[moot]

My data point: I get freezes only on the first hit sprites, from nothing else.  I did the stuff in Waffle's thread and it changes nothing.. I'm running 2x AA and have been for a year or so.  The freezes started with this version.  There was a small drop in fps, from the ground graphics change I guess, but other than that, it's all smooth.
I also defragged.

Just about unplayable.....

Same here, mini-freeze on 1st hit. Win2000, ATI 1650 card.

Same Problem here.....

I took the advice posted earlier and de-fragged my harddrive, and the mini-freeze's stopped completely.  Thanks !

Constantly have mini freezes too. I thought we were supposed to have global warming going on, but i guess my pc hasnt read the news yet.

also have you players cleaned out your films folder or deleted your cache folder to let it rebuild with updated files?

these 2 things might be causing the mini-freezes.......

but ig to films in there that i like to watch..... lol, ill try that, im laggy as hell (sorry for my tongue, only thing that fit) since the new version came out

You don't have to delete your films, just move them out of the film folder in the Aces high directory. If you have too many films in the films folder it can cause problems.

For those of you who have experienced mini-freezes when first firing ur guns, I had the same problem and have fixed the problem.  I have the GE Force 8500 GT video card by Nvidia.  I fixed my problem by adding the Aceshigh.exe command to  "program Settings"  in the Nvidia control Panel and  programed those settings instead of using the global settiings listed for aces High under the global settings tab.  For those of you who want to try this fix, this is what I did:
    Opened nvidia control panel; opened 3d settings; selected "managed 3d settings"; clicked on tab "program settings" clicked on Add button and added the AcesHigh.exe command ( I did this by the copy command).  After adding the AcesHigh.exe command to Program Settings, I highlighted AcesHigh.exe and specified the settings (on the drop down menu) as follows:
    Anisotropic Filtering - - Application Controlled
    Antialiasing-Gamma Correction -- Use Global Setting (on)
    Antialiasing-Mod -- Application Controlled
    Antialiasing-Transparency -- Multi-Sampling
    Conformant Texture Clamp -- Use hardware
    Error Reporting -- Use Global Setting (off)
    Extension Limit -- Use Global Setting (off)
    Force Mipmaps -- Bilinear
    Multi-Display/Mixed GPU Acceleration -- Single Display Performance Monitor
    Stereo - Display Mode --  Use Vertical Interlace Monitor
    Texture Filtering-Anistropic Sample -- Off
    Texture Filtering-Negative LOD Bias -- Allow
    Texture Filtering-Quality -- Quality
    Texture Filtering-Trillnear Optimization -- On
    Threaded Optimation-- Use Global Setting (Auto)
    Triple Buffering -- On
    Texture Filtering --Anistropic Mip Filter Op -- Off
    Vertical Sync - Force On

Anyone figured out yet how to fix this when using ATI RADEON X800 Pro? I'm using the 2007.0320.2241.38712 Catalyst control centre.

I've only been seeing this pause since the update and I've tried everything else anyone has suggested and everything else I can think of. No joy, first time a shoot a plane, I still get the pause.

If anyone with a similar card has fixed this, let me know what you did please.

I don't think the fix is on our side in this case:

"Optimized how hit sprites are loaded and changed the texture size of the sprites."

Ahh, well spotted. HTC, please add this to the "to fix" list

Ehmmm that is the "to fix" list. Or better: the things that are fixed with the upcoming patch...

Yep, I should have read the date, my apologies.
