Title: beta 21 clipboard bug.
Post by: thrila on April 02, 2004, 03:44:33 PM
Currently makes game unplayable as i can't see the password screen.

The clipboard seems fine as it's moving to the screen to be fully displayed.  Once it's fully displayed the image dissapears.


some pics to show what i mean.(http://www.onpoi.net/ah/pics/users/87_1080942052_beta21bug.jpg)


and offline when ingame-

Thrila, what version are your drivers?  Can you update your drivers and see if the problem persists?

I had the same problem and solved it by upgrading from nvidia driver version 54.xx to newest 56.72.

But, I have no GPS plane icon on the map. :(

I have a GForce Ti 4200 64MB.

Need somebody with this problem to try something.  Click on the "-" sign at the top of the clipboard to move it out and report whether the clipboard display comes back.  TIA.

Minimizing it worked for me also. Didn't fix the map problem in-game though.

Downloading the new Nvidia drivers fixed the prob but I am now noticing a 10-20 FPS drop in AHI

And a 20 FPS drop in AH2
Flew for a little while and couldnt get FR higher then 15 FPS

Is there anything within the Driver software itself I can change to improve this?

Or better yet will a fix be made so that AHII will support the older divers?

make sure that when you installed the new driver that it didn't automatically turn on FSAA...if i recall, i think it may have it set to on as a default? just a thought.

ok i've discovered something.

If i keep tapping the escape key while the clipboard is moving to be displayed.  The clipboard will display everything alsong as i keep rapidly tapping escape, even when the clipboard is at full size.  This'll only work once ingame in the tower, not at main menu.  As soon as i stop it all disapears, but atleast i know where stuff is so i can select it when it's not displayed.  Gonna mess about with ingame vid setting see if it changes anything.

I can’t view:
Load Stickmap
or
Calibrate

When I try to open them in the clipboard. It is just blank.

I can see the other options.  Here is a pic that shows what I mean.

Same problem same drivers but i can't see password screen either... temporaryily fixed by hitting Esc repeatedly in game to see missing detail.
