Freezes/pauses in game
« on: March 15, 2002, 11:37:23 AM »
I posted this in the bug forum as well, but as I am not sure if it user caused or the program itself, I wanted to post it here as well.

I have been getting pauses while in game. I will be flying along and the screen seems to freeze and then picks right back to the normal 40-45 fps I got in 1.08. I will also get a beacon at this point too. I do not know if this is from the game freezing the computer and it not sending info to or receiving info from the server. This started happening on Monday after the update.

Last night, I turned the volume sliders on AHV all the way down and the pauses went away. The first night this was happening, I was thinking that it was due to my sound drivers being old, but I downloaded the latest ones for my card (SB Live) and the pauses still persisted. After turning the volume down on AHV, the freezes didn't occur again.

I don't know if this is a configuration error on my part or if it is a bug in AH, but I thought I would post it to let you all know about it.

My system specs are as follows:

P3 866
384MB RAM
GF2 Pro 32MB (DDR I believe)
SB Live!
WinME
Dx 8.1a

I have the same problem, just started after the 109 upgrade. The
108 and all others worked fine with ah voice and rw. Haven't changed a thing to my system.

Same problem... I've moved my volume sliders to the left and the effects slider to the right.

Still get the same pauses.
