Help please
« on: August 17, 2010, 07:58:21 AM »
I was in game when I noticed on the back view the view itself became unstable, similar to zooming in and out, no stable position.

When I died and was in the tower, the tower view was the same, zooming in and out, thinking somehow the game became unstable, i shutdown the game then the pc.

On the reboot i got an explorer error,  shdocvw.dll  being the cause, i reinstalled the .dll from my disk and it booted normally. I shut down all the extraneous processes and entered the game.
the tower view was the same.

Any ideas?

Tks.

What version of Windows?

I would say dxdiag but a dll problem like that generally means something in the OS. Try doing a fresh boot, disable your anti-virus, disconnect your joystick from the computer and open AH, see what happens.

do you have an analog slider or something along those lines for "ZOOMING" in and out..if you do,maybe it is jumpy..you should be able to see it under map controllers if this is the issue..

I have a CH Throttle. The game seemed to by default map the Head position forward and back, left and right to the notoriously funky micro stick.   If that puppy isn't centered, it does what you describe, and it centers poorly at best. 

If you never use it, you might not realize it's mapped until you bump it off center.
