 Hey it seems ah is dumping people more these days. I got 3 tonight. I dont think its fair that my k/d was killed because of dumps. I dont play that quit the game when im going to die stuff like a few do. I live in canada and usually have a rock solid connect those in far off countries realy suffer the way its set up now. A dump should be a proximity kill like if you fly a guy into the ground. Not a guy around me tonight when i dumped Why should it affect my k/d! No joke this is not cool!

I'm not so sure that it is net related eye. Recently, I upgraded my Voodoo 3 3000 to a Riva TNT2 Ultra(CL) and with it dumps to desktops started happening! Every now and then for no reason, Aces High will just plain quit! Like I hit alt F4 or something! Never happened before, period, with the V3. I've also started to disco occasionally also, that is ending up at the 'Choose Arena' screen. I haven't tried the latest drivers for the card, using the drivers that came with it. But, I'm not so sure the latest drivers for the card are gonna make any difference. I am using the latest version of DX.

Strange the changing vid cards caused me the dreaded 'Desktop Dump'!

I also use a Riva TNT2 Ultra, but those 3-4 times I`ve been discoed (Since Beta) it has been the connection, not the videocard.

But if you dont have the latest drivers installed, I sertainly will recommend you downloading them, and then see if it makes any difference.

Bad drivers can make the weirdest things happen to your computer, thrust me , I know

You smell that? Do you smell that?
Napalm, son. Nothing else in the world smells like that.
I love the smell of napalm in the morning.
The smell, you know that gasoline smell, smelled like victory.

I have gotten a lot of "Host Connection Lost" messages also, tis a bummer, but less of a bummer at flat rate than at $2.00 an hour.

I am guessing it's a net problem, but no reason HT and Pyro can't make sure the servers don't need a tweak.

What are the IP so I can run UO Trace or whatever?

I would believe it was server related. Yesterday night SFRT was bombing A28, 3 of us got bumped. (Off course, beyween our first pass and second pass)    

We came back up, re-raided the field, sent 2 goons... both got dumped, 1 already landed droping his 9th troop. <--- another    

Both cases, some other people got bump too... hum, I would say it's Knigths new Secret Weapon hehehe.
